Stupid Manson Followers

So, here's the deal. One of my first blogs was about Susan Atkins, the Manson follower who supposedly has terminal cancer. In 2008, she was given six months to live. She's still alive and has been granted a parole hearing in September of this year (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/06/a-manson-followers-final-argument.html). Now, they are about to let out another Manson follower who tried to kill President Ford, and who escaped from prison as late as 1987 to go be with Manson (who, thankfully, will never be granted parole unless someone incredibly stupid lets him out). I can't help but say it for both: BAD IDEA. I wanted to put this out there, but I'm not done with my rant. I'll post more later! By the way, click on the title to go to the article about Lynette Fromme.

You have to be kidding!! Well, someday I think it will be worse and we will hear of Manson getting out...You know, some people are really just a waste of space...The Manson crew are a perfect example

Like I said before, I haven't been getting my emails to let me know someone posted. But I do have an update. That crazy woman died on September 25, 22 days after she was denied parole. I'm sorry. I have no sympathy for her. Someone reported that she helped abused children from jail and did other "good deeds," but really, someone like that doesn't really change. I'll have a blog update later on tonight, I think, about the movements of Manson's followers (I'm obsessed, yes, I know. But it's history!).
