He was just an excitable boy.

What a great defense. Why didn't Muhammad blame it all on Malcom X and Farrakahn and Keanu Reeves?

[Agnes Heep]

The problem was that he played useful idiot to an adult with an evil agenda. Millions of people do this every day, in a political sense. Stupid, yes; insane, hardly.

Thing of how liberals must be watching this trial. On the one hand, they have to want to let him go free. After all, he shares all of their values and hates White Christians as much as they do. On the other hand, they don't want to get shot.

How to decide?

Muhammad "taught him from very early on . . . that right and wrong are made up by the government," Cornell told jurors. Malvo "believed . . . that right and wrong is an illusion."

If right and wrong are an illusion, then hanging Malvo for his crimes cannot possibly be wrong. It is morally neutral. Let's do it!

[ARepublicanForAllReasons]

Nauseatingly predictable defense. I suppose that in the trial of John Muhammad, the defense will claim that it was Malvo who brainwashed him. But I don't think juries are in a mood these days to buy that claptrap.

[William Terrell]

People that believe that right and wrong are an illusion are prime candidates for the death penalty.

Did the members of Manson's group suffer from this illusion? What about Nazis and Japanese? Were they all insane?
