This is the question...if Charlie Manson was twenty-five years old today...what kind of damage could this guy inflict on today’s society? Charlie had enormous talents to manipulate.

A guy I met in my previous job had the scar of a swastika on his forehead just between and slightly above his eyebrows. he was a nice guy, very normal except for his gray hippy hair. One day I asked him if he was a former Manson Clan member.

He said yes.

Great article. Thanks for posting. How utterly confused and suggestible do you have to be to follow a nutjob homicidal schizophrenic like Manson? And what was missing in the education this woman received that she would fall for it?

Look at those eyes. This is a man who knows what is coming when he dies. And it’s not far off.

turned a group of peaceful hippies living in a commune into a group of merciless killers

I have never thought hippies were peaceful. That's just what they want everyone to think.

Today Charles Manson would be twittering on his Nokia while wearing distressed jeans from A&F during the protest of world trade!!

On a more serious note, there is no shortage of damaged people and others willing to take advantage of them, so yeah...

this could happen again!

In case you haven’t heard, there is nothing new in the world...

if you are surprised by almost anything that happens...

you don’t know enough history!

Read more.

Thanks for the post. Interesting article and angle I was not aware of. I thought all who were there that night had been jailed and convicted. Now I know “the rest of the story.” Regards to Paul too (speaking of which) :-(.

They wanted everyone else to be peaceful so that they could be free to destroy the society that fed them.

I have never thought hippies were peaceful. Hippies, by definition were parasitic... and without treatment parasites can kill!

They were the murders that ended the 1960s, the decade of love, in a bloodbath that shocked the world

No, it didn't end the "decade of love". The Manson Murders were the culmination of the 1960's. An end result of choices made. Rebellion has consequences, most are unintended.

What I remember most about hippies is that they were all thieves.

Manson had been a pimp for years before he started his commune.

No, the decade of hate called love did not end in the 1960s. Its culmination is the Obama presidency. The 60s have triumphed after all.

Manson did not start or end any era. He was just a mass murdering piece of slime that is going to meet his Maker pretty soon. No different from Jim Jones or Ted Bundy. Same deal, different day.
