No idea who is guy is but jeez the posts in this thread I know how likable he is lol

He headed up a cult that killed several people back in 1969, including a very pregnant Sharon Tate, under the guise that it would bring about an apocalyptic race war to end all wars. He also carved a swastika into his own forehead.

So yeah, real nice guy. One of the guys who genuinely deserves to have the door hit him on his way out.

 

[purseowner]

While I agree that few would be particularly mournful if he passed away, no one deserves death.

 

[sems4arsenal]

Holy shit, may he burn in hell twisted fuck.

 

[How About No]

While I agree that few would be particularly mournful if he passed away, no one deserves death.

No one deserves it, but guess what everyone gets?

 

[Calderc]

Crazy ass psychopath who killed people and something about a cult. Basically, he's a soulless bastard.

I feel nothing for this man, he doesn't deserve sympathy.

a serial killer, that with his "family" killed at least 7 people, including Roman Polanski pregnant wife along 4 other friends that were at their home.

Manson never killed anyone.

 

[Into the Light]

How can anyone not know who Charles Manson is? How?

 

[Xe4]

Dudes like 70, so it's hardly surprising. It shouldn't be have to be stated, but I certainly have no sympathy. Dude getting media attention at all is sad, but predictable. Should've been locked up and the key thrown away, never to be seen again.

Nah, Dennis Rader needs to die in the worst way.

Disagree.

 

[cordy]

New Year New You!!!

 

[NoblesseOblige]

I thought the guy was already dead for some reason.

We all deserve death, for it is required by life.

 

[GamerJM]

[zeemumu]

He's been in there a while with no constant updates so his horrible doings were lost to time like a lot of murderers who don't get crazy nicknames.

 

[purseowner]

Whilst I expected opposing opinion, I'm pleasantly surprised by the nihilism.

 

[PSqueak]

I mean, think about it, does he really deserve the release of death, or does he deserve to keep rotting in jail for hopefully another 10 years minimum?

 

[HStallion]

But he was supposed to be Trump's pick for Secretary of Mental Health!

 

[Linkark07]

If it wasn't because of this thread, I still wouldn't know who he is. Probably would have preferred not know either, right now I'm feeling sick after reading his Wikipedia page.

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Good. Fuck Charles Manson.

 

[Vladimir Putin]

Good. Fuck Charles Manson.

Do you feel blame? Are you mad? Do you feel like wolf kabob roth vantage? Gefrannis booj pooch boo jujube; bear-ramage. Jigiji geeji geeja geeble google. Begep flagaggle vaggle veditch-waggle bagga?

This is as mind-blowing as the baby transferring from Norman Reedus to Guillermo del Toro

I always feel bad laughing at this shit.

 

[ShyMel]

My family and I watch a lot crime shows, so I've know about him for awhile but I can imagine other people my age (22) and lower not knowing who he is since like others stated, he's been in prison for sometime without any updates on his status.

 

[adamsappel]

Charlie don't surf.

 

[flkraven]

Is this 2017 trying to apologize for 2016?

 

[pixelation]

I wouldn't lose sleep over it, but I'm just surprised he lived so long if he dies

Bad seeds never die...

They get struck by lightning

 

[Into the Light]

There are name you dont forget, especially if you watch news.

Charles Manson
The Melendez brothers
Richard Ramirez

etc..........

 

[smurfx]

maybe 2017 will bring balance to the force and off terrible people.

heh abc is going to do some big update on them tomorrow i think.

 

[Indrid Cold1]

He's on my buddy's death pool and not mine so part of me is hoping he pulls through and I get to steal him for next year.

These are great fun. I was going to try to run a gaf one for 2017 but forgot to ask a mod if it would be in too poor taste for a thread.

 

[Head of Vengarl]

Wow I actually forgot this motherfucker was still alive.

 

[spookyfish]

2016, you missed one.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Manson never killed anyone.

True, but his life sentence was rightfully deserved regardless.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

It's actually Menendez

 

[Puck Beaverton]

I hope he dies slow

 

[mantidor]

How can anyone not know who Charles Manson is? How?

I'm also shocked.

And now I feel terribly old, yes he was notorious in the 70s but he was known even into the 90s, I'm shocked as I said, maybe for the better, he craved attention so much is only fitting he is dying relatively unknown.

Last Podcast on the Left taught me about all these.
By the way, Charles was a pretty damn good manipulator.

Bye bye

Spoiler

good riddance

 

[Ivan 3414]

How can anyone not know who Charles Manson is? How?

Because the shit he did happened almost 50 years ago and they don't exactly teach serial killer history in schools

 

[HStallion]

Because the shit he did happened over 50 years ago and they don't exactly teach serial killer history in schools

They should.

 

[Darth Pinche]

Hopefully 2017 is off to a good start. This bastard has lived too long as it is.

 

[Glass Joe]

If a notorious serial killer is the first celebrity death of 2017, maybe this is a year I can get behind.

 

[lawnchair]

No idea who is guy is but jeez the posts in this thread I know how likable he is lol

you should read Helter Skelter

 

[collige]

They should.

Why?

 

[Dishwalla]

I daresay that people who don't know who Charles Manson is are pop culturally illiterate. He's one of the most famous murderers this country has ever known. It's like not knowing who Ted Bundy is.

I mean haven't you ever watched South Park or Family Guy? Numerous references to him in both those shows.

 

[Into the Light]

He gets mentioned in the news a lot still to this day. Lifetime had some kind of movie about him last year.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

Was more a fact than nihilism. I subscribe to a very clear philosophically moral outlook.

What is "Southpark or Familyguy"??
