Charles Manson? Views about him? 2 poll questions also.

[balendor]

Charles Milles Manson (also known as a Voodoo Man or whatever) (born November 12, 1934) was the leader of a group of young followers of both sexes, known collectively as "The Family" in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Manson convinced the youths of his apocalyptic vision and still has a considerable amount of control over some of the former family members who are still alive. He planned and ordered the family to commit several brutal murders, most notably the movie actress Sharon Tate who was pregnant at the time. He was convicted of murder in what came to be known as the "Tate-La Bianca case", named after the victims, although he was not accused of committing the murders in person. He is currently serving a life sentence in a California prison and is up for parole in 2007.

NOTE: the 1st question is the first yes/no then 2nd is the 2nd yes/no

so like a answer would be. Yes ; No or Yes ; Yes or No ; Yes and so on

1st Question: Do you think he should be convicted as a criminal and should be in Jail?

2nd question: As he is in Jail do you think he should be up for parole or do you think he should still have to stay in Jail?

I truly would say No ; Yes

because the thing is and by the way im not a fucking freak sorta. but not a serial killing freak type and shit.

the thing is though is that. yes he manipulated and such. but...he never did kill anyone as i have heard. cause truth be told. Show me a law that says Manipulating is a crime? because if it was technically religion would be against the law if you think about it. because there telling people what to believe in and what they should do which is manipulating there mind somewhat.

What are your views?? about this Mysterious Man

 

[JIM TIM JOHN]

Yes; No.

Although I have never heard of this, from what you are saying, he basically had tons of followers. (Just like the Mafia.) And he ordered some of his followers to kill people (just like the Mafia.)

So, basically he is the equivalent of a Mob Boss and should be put in jail for life without the possibility of parole.

 

[Skater14]

He should be put on house arrest for the remainder of his life.

 

[JIM TIM JOHN]

He should be put on house arrest for the remainder of his life.

Just so he can meet with his followers at his house and order more destruction?

No. That is a terrible idea.

No. That is a terrible idea.

very very true. but he didn't kill anyone a mob boss usually did kill someone? but i do understand what you are saying. anyone else?

 

[TJ]

If he didn't kill anyone, then why should he be in jail?

If i read it right, his followers did it. They had free will and did it themselves.

 

[The_Ace]

Saddam Hussien never killed anyone either, guess what, he got hanged.

 

[Triggerfinger]

Yes;No.

He was an accessory to murder. Just like Mob Bosses are when they go down.

I don't believe he should be in jail - I believe he ought to be dead; If I had my way I'd most likely brutally torture him until death, which is a befitting punishment.

very true exactly.

actually yah he was killing people in his country...as well as he was manufacturing illegal nuclear weapons supposedly. but yes he did kill people. as well as he is sooooo much different then charles manson. manson had about..10-15 people if less not sure and he did somehwat manipulate but yes as TJ said he didnt kill anyone. But saddam?? he was a leader of a whole fucking army? as well as he mainly planned 9/11 which is way bigger than what he did.

I don't believe he should be in jail - I believe he ought to be dead; If I had my way I'd most likely brutally torture him until death, which is a befitting punishment.

haha i laughed at this but exactly why though? yah he did mainpulate but like TJ said they did techinally have there own free will. but why though is what im asking??


and for some other people...stop reffering as a mob boss. mob bosses for one usually are selling drugs, (back then when alcohol was illegal) selling alcohol illegaly, as well as supplying guns to his men. plus he didn't even go that far. as well as they are kinda different in some ways but i kinda see the resembelence but not really. but hey it is your guy's opinion.

and btw. seeing your avatar picture i can kinda see why you would say that haha.

 

[Elvy666]

I believe he should be executed, what he did was wrong, though I admit he is a extremely smart person, not any average person can manipulate the way he did.

 

[TobyL65]

JAIL.
He had the intent for the people to die.

 

[Swan]

haha i laughed at this but exactly why though? yah he did mainpulate but like TJ said they did techinally have there own free will. but why though is what im asking??

He had intended for people to die, and I'd probably get a thrill from it anyway.

 

[TJ]

The people that did the killing could of used their free will and not killed the people..but they did. That is their fault, not his.

^ This.
I don't consider telling people to murder is equivalent to murder; I believe in free speech.

Saddam had no link to 9/11.

From wikipedia:
He was convicted of conspiracy to commit the Tate/LaBianca murders, carried out by members of the group at his instruction. He was found guilty of the murders themselves through the joint-responsibility rule, which makes each member of a conspiracy guilty of crimes his fellow conspirators commit in furtherance of the conspiracy's object.

So, he holds no responsibility for what he says?

I voted: Yes, no

If people are idiotic enough to do what he says, then they deserve the punishment..not him.

He deserves some punishment as he knew the control he had over his followers. He knew if he said to kill someone, they would do it, and for that he deserves punishment.
