I just read a couple of excerpts from the recommended book of Chuck.
His own words? HIS? I dunno...seemed way too lucid to me.
(however, I think tonight will be a good one to pull out the White Album and give her a go)
You mean he didn't come across like the crazy, provocative face that he presents to the media?
You should read the whole book. It's an interesting story, in many ways.
So he chooses to show the madness? That in itself is intriguing, because he strikes me as a madman. Always has.
You know, I will search it out...and not only to satisfy my fascination for minds/outlooks like his. Kinda like Ted Bundy. I wouldn't say that he was similar to Manson - another (beyond) strange bird, for sure - but...interesting.
I take it you know what it's like to spend 40 years in a U.S prison then?
Strange, but I saw a documentary on life within U.S prisons last year and it looked to be anything but 'pretty good'.
Yep, right here in good ol' California---San Quentin-- which I fortunately drive by only 3 or 4 times a year. Somehow that place just doesn't look like a country club to me.
“The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
the biggest problem society has is that human beings are involved. Remove human beings from the equation and society would be awesome.
we seem to forget the fact that humans are in fact an animal being. And will act with our most base primal instinct.
Human beings don't exist within a vacuum. We are effected and influenced by our surroundings and by the people around us.
Societies laws, which are allegedly created and implemented to serve and protect some form of morality, should not function on the level of base primal instincts and blood lust.
I have a question for you: Do you think Jesus would support the death penalty? Do you think he'd support the snuffing out of two lives in order simply to satisfy the blood lust of a few brainless individuals?
since he willing was taken to be put to death himself to fulfill prophecy, I have to say yes.
Really? Based on your belief in the Bible you think that Jesus would support state-sanctioned executions?
I suppose people can twist anything to make it suit them.

I wonder if he got to see Metallica when they played there a few years ago?

I guess Charley is housed at Corcoran prison, not San Quentin, so he did end up missing that scorching set.

I am hoping this is just warm up for 2018.
Remember how many good people we lost this year? Karma needs to pick off a few more 'bad' people next year to balance things out.
I say 'bad' because I believe people are inherently good. I have never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.
I find it reprehensible when people cheer on killing. But not at all when people simply say "good riddance" when an evil person passed away of natural causes. I don't see how or why you have to be comparing Manson to anyone else here unsung. That is just stupid. People being glad this world finally had enough of Manson says literally nothing about how they feel about others who may be worse than him.

yeah to be honest i would prefer to be dead than to spend the rest of my life in a U.S Prison,

It's not like he manufactured wars that led to the deaths of millions of people like that Senator from Arizona.
Charles Manson is in rookie league by comparison.
But I guess perception outweighs truth.

So you're a Charlie Manson fan? Not surprised. You both believe in conspiracies and crazy speculation.
You think the government is plotting against you. Charlie thought there was going to be a race war.
