Michael Jackson’s dad `always carries handgun`

London: Michael Jackson’s father Joe has revealed that he is too scared to leave his house without a gun.

The 84-year-old ensures his safety by carrying a firearm at all times. “I’ve been threatened a lot of times and need to be safe,” the Daily Star quoted the pop singer’s father as saying at the Black Music Awards in Las Vegas. Jackson then went ahead and unbuttoned his suit jacket to show the audience his handgun in a holster. ANI
