    ugh. i'm a fan of pearl jam, not a disciple of Eddie Vedder. i won't be cheering. take them to your house Ed, to have dinner and hang out with your wife and child, parade them around in front of them if that's your wish. that's your choice. don't force them on others though.

    look at echols past. i don't give a rats about if he is guilty or not guilty as part of the wm3. his proven evil past is enough to tell me he is someone i never wanna be in the same room as. ever.

    That is exactly Speedy's point. Of all the people in jail that could be wrongly prosecuted - why support these dickheads? Because they like rock music? Seriously.

    of all the charities on the planet that Mr.Vedder could ask his fans to support...

    he chooses to ask for money for 3 convicted murderers????

    and i guarantee 90% of the "entertainment industry" who are supporting these assholes.....have no clue to the background of Damien Echols....

    I thought SPEEDY was letting his voice be heard by posting here. If anything, the board is as close to a stage as most of us will ever get to. And obviously the mods don't mind his voice being heard or they would have closed the thread by now.

  • Anyone that doesn't already have their mind made up about this case, my advice is research it and then decide. Please don't decide from the argument between me and speedy. We're too fucking biased to offer anything to someone neutral.

    one thing i get a kick out of...

    is when ill read some article on the west memphis 3 child murderers...

    and they make the statement..."before his arrest for murder damien echols had only a few minor run ins with the law"

    who the fuck are they kidding???

    this guy is a sick piece of shit...

    who collects full disability because of his mental problems....

    why do people try to make this guy out to be some type of fucking angel???

    I've never seen anyone trying to make angels outta these guys. I've seen people trying to get three guys who a lot of people think got fucked over a new, and fair trial. Just because someone is an asshole doesn't mean they should get fucked over and forgotten about.
  • do some research on bipolar disorder, damien more than likely suffers from this condition...it BY NO MEANS makes him a bad person. My cousin suffers from this disorder as have one or two students that I have had in my classroom. It absolutely does not qualify him as a bad person, nor does it my cousin and nor does it my former students!

    I don't need to do research. I can tell if they're guilty just by looking at them.

    At least, that's how I get out of jury duty. :D

  • murdering the 3 children makes him a bad person...


    I agree with you..if it could be proven true...i have seen zero evidence pointing to this..you just keep going back to his mental history which has nothing to do with this particular case.....so yes, if he murdered the three children i would say he is a bad person, but because i have seen no evidence pointing to thus I will not judge him based on a mental disease that i have personal experience with and know can be hard, but does not make the person "bad" or "evil"

    it is true...

    it was proven to a jury...

    who convicted the 3 murderers based on evidence...

    it wasnt because they wear black clothing and listen to rock music that they are sitting in a prison cell(even though thats what most people are suckered into believing)

    and did you ever notice that in the documentary...when the prosecutor starts questioning Mr.Echols(the child murderer) about his past mental history....about his threatening to kill his father and eat his father...about threatening to kill a classmate and gouge his eyeballs out....

    oh wait...thats right...you didnt see that part of the trial on the documentary......because it was edited out....

    imagine that....

    Innocent people still get wrongly convicted from time to time. I'll hold out judgment until the DNA evidence comes back.

    I obviously cannot answer for the "hollywood" people but sometimes people that have a shitty life were born into that shitty life and over looked like in life and looked down on by others, like rusted signs, so people want to try help them. In this case, to help get another trial.......................

    And all those terrible things Echols said are horrrible but obviously people can grow, mature, and change. Maybe he did. Maybe he thought he sounded tough saying those things back then. I don't know.
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

    why is it when i go to the "official website to free the wm3"(murderers)

    they blatantly lie to me and tell me damien echols only had a few minor run ins with the law involving his girfriend??

    why doesnt the "official website" mention his mental records???
    why doesnt the "official website" mention he collects disabilty because of his mental health???
    why doesnt the "official website" mention facts about his stay in those mental hospitals?? and the threats he made to both his parents and police officers????

    go do some research on Damien Echols...if you havent already....

    and find out what a swell guy he was prior to being convicted of murder...

    he is a despicable piece of human garbage...

    i wouldnt support these 3 child murderers any more than i would support charles manson....

    and yet, G W is suppose to be a swell guy, and look at the evil shit he's done...there are ten's of millions of pieces of shits that never do anything to bad, and ten's of millions of so called good people that have done some pretty fucked up shit and slept well at night.

    this is about the justice system, give them their dna tests, and we can probably get at the truth and move on.

    i agree people should move on...

    these 3 despicable human beings were convicted in a court of law...

    they were convicted by a jury...

    they were convicted based on evidence and not the clothes they wear and the music the listen to....

    they are convicted murderers and are now going to spend the rest of their lives in prison....

    and people should just move on......
