Yeah, tell all of those 9/11 families to stop with all of that silly memorializing. We don't want people from other countries laughing at us.

How soon some forget. Sorry Patty, we never will.

[Brilliant]

Oh yeah.... I'd forgotten that Patty Hearst was another one of those terrorists who was pardoned by Bill Clinton.

[lionheart 247365]

Patty makes the perfect heir to the Hearst fictional news empire .

[SMARTY]

Patty, just another loony tune with more money than brains who wants to tell the rest of us how it REALLY is.

[Clemenza]

Spoiled rich kid who thought it would be "cool" to rob banks with some ex-cons.

She did look kinda sexy holding that grease gun.

Why did the Symbionese need liberating anyway? Where would the Symbion nation be?

[syriacus]

I never thought of Patty Hearst as a "sage" individual whose advice I would seek.

"I've always wanted to be a cartoon character," she admitted. "I've practically been reduced to that in real life."

I'm not a cartoon character, but I play one on TV. Here's to keeping a low profile, ya rich B****.

Fruit-Loop, Ding-Dong, Moon-Bat, Foil-Hat, Whack-Job alert. This former Symbianese Liberation Army Bank Robber and Terrorist is lecturing us. PATTY:JUST SHUT UP!!

Thank you.

I liked her better with a machine-gun in her hands... and her mouth closed!

"...People who come over here just laugh at us."

No Patty, they laugh at YOU. They don't laugh at us.

This is the kind of muddled thought that comes from decades of drug abuse. It is the basis (if you could call it that) of all of liberalism.

[sgtbono2002]

Patty : They are probably laughing at how you fooled Bill Clinton into giving you a pardon. You did fool him didnt you? Or did he really know you were guilty and pardon you anyway. I doubt it made any difference to Bill.

[Central Scrutiniser]

I agree with her to the point that the american media frenzy about scaring people is too much. I am amazed whenever I travel overseas, people here say "Aren't you AFRAID to be going out of the country?"

I reply "I gotta fly out of LAX, about 2 miles from the worst, most violent ghetto that I will see on my trip, once I'm out of there, I feel a helluva lot more safe"

[jess35]

Once a nutcase, always a nutcase.

[caisson71]

I guess Patty has broken her silence only to confirm that she is as crazy as most have suspected. Sometimes it's best to remain silent rather than to speak and confirm suspicions.

[wideawake]

She condemns what she sees as a victim mentality, even as she asks us to accept her victim narrative, in which she was simply kidnapped by terrorists and not a terrorist herself.

"I've always wanted to be a cartoon character," she admitted.

Bad day to be a cartoon character.

UNICEF ad drops bomb on Smurfs ("children wailed in terror")

BRUSSELS -- UNICEF's first adult-only episode of "The Smurfs," in which the blue-skinned cartoon characters' village is annihilated by warplanes, has terrified young children. The short but chilling film is to be broadcast on national television this week as a campaign advertisement for a fundraising drive by the U.N. children's agency. The animation was approved by the family of the Smurfs' late creator, "Peyo." Belgian television viewers were given a preview of the 25-second film last week, when it was shown on the evening news. The reactions ranged from approval to shock and, in the case of small children who saw the episode by accident, wailing terror...

HAIRSPRAY

That about sums it up.

"It's better to keep a low profile." (bottom of the article)

I agree with Ms. Hearst's sentiments on this, it seems to recall the time when Americans were so unlike the wailing, keening sheep people in the Third World. The Brits had the "stiff upper lip" and Americans had the "strong,silent type". I am painfully reminded of the 'victims' in NOLA who mugged for the cameras, which were beaming around the world, how they only got to spend $700 of the 2K on their federal welfare/feel guilty cards. I just loved the guy who repeatedly dropped the F-bomb live on FNC, he actually demanded that he and his white girlfriend be given 20K...live, and around the world.

Her comments on celebrities was dead accurate, also.

[dfwgator]

They just laugh at you, Tania.
