FOX NEWS ^ | 2017-11-19 | The Associated Press

Charles Manson, the hippie cult leader who became the hypnotic-eyed face of evil across America after orchestrating the gruesome murders of pregnant actress Sharon Tate and six others in Los Angeles during the summer of 1969, died Sunday after nearly a half-century in prison. He was 83.

Manson died of natural causes at 8:13 p.m. Sunday at Kern County hospital, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said in a statement.

>>I doubt anyone who wasn’t alive then even knows who he was.

Pop culture made it safe to name check Charlie Manson to be “edgy”, “alternative”, etc.

And cable tv spends an awful amount of broadcast time on specials profiling serial killers.

"Dig It. First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, they even shoved a fork into a victim’s stomach! Wild!"

-Weather Underground leader and wife of Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, referring to the Manson murders

"Taking charge of the podium, dressed in high-heeled boots and a leather mini-skirt – her signature uniform – [Bernardine] Dorhn incited the assembled radicals to join the war against "Amerikkka" and create chaos and destruction in the "belly of the beast."

Her voice rising to a fevered pitch, Dohrn raised three fingers in a "fork salute" to mass murderer Charles Manson whom she proposed as a symbol to her troops. Referring to the helpless victims of the Manson Family as the "Tate Eight" (the most famous was actress Sharon Tate) Dohrn shouted:

"Dig It. First they killed those pigs, then they ate dinner in the same room with them, they even shoved a fork into a victim’s stomach! Wild!"

Today William Ayers is not merely an author favored by the New York Times, but a Distinguished Professor of Education at the University of Illinois, Chicago.

His Lady Macbeth [Bernardine Dohrn] is not merely a lawyer, but a member of the American Bar Association’s governing elite, as well as the director of Northwestern University’s Children and Family Justice Center.

Obama once visited '60s radicals "In 1995, State Senator Alice Palmer introduced her chosen successor, Barack Obama, to a few of the district’s influential liberals at the home of two well known figures on the local left: William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn. ..."

“I can remember being one of a small group of people who came to Bill Ayers’ house to learn that Alice Palmer was stepping down from the senate and running for Congress,” said Dr. Quentin Young, a prominent Chicago physician and advocate for single-payer health care, of the informal gathering at the home of Ayers and his wife, Dohrn. “[Palmer] identified [Obama] as her successor.”

Obama and Palmer “were both there,” he said.

Obama’s connections to Ayers and Dorhn have been noted in some fleeting news coverage in the past. But the visit by Obama to their home — part of a campaign courtship — reflects more extensive interaction than has been previously reported. ..."

Actress Sharon Tate

Confession (Manson Family)

When they got in the house, Susan [Atkins] said that in the living room there was a man on the couch and a woman on the chair reading. Then some of Susan's group stayed in the living room, while Susan went into the bedroom where Sharon was sitting on the bed talking to Jay Sebring. They quickly put nooses over Sharon and Jay's heads so that if they moved they would choke.

Frykowski ran for the door. "He was full of blood," she said and claimed that she had stabbed him three or four times. "He was bleeding and he ran to the front part, and would you believe that he was there hollering 'Help, help, somebody please help me,' and nobody came? Then we finished him off."

"Sharon was the last to die," Susan said with a laugh as she described how Sharon was begging her, " Please don't kill me. Please don't kill me. I don't want to die. I want to live. I want to have my baby. I want to have my baby."

Susan said she just looked at Sharon straight in the eye and said, "Look, bitch, I don't care about you. I don't care if you're going to have a baby. You had better be ready. You're going to die and I don't feel anything about it...In a few minutes I killed her."

Susan said she saw that there was Sharon's blood on her hand and she tasted it. "Wow, what a trip! To taste death, and yet give life."

“Susan Atkins, one of the killers, writes “Pig” on the house’s front door, in Sharon Tate’s blood.”

"When police arrived at the LaBianca murder scene, they found various words written in blood. On the living room walls, there was "rise" and "death to pigs." Carved into Leno LaBianca's stomach was "war." Alone these seem to give no clue, but another writing on the refrigerator did. It was the incorrectly spelt "healter skelter." This led some investigators to believe the writings may have been influenced by the so-called "White Album" by the Beatles which included the song "Helter Skelter." Another song on the album, "Blackbird," used the word "arise" which may have inspired the bloody use of "rise."

The phase "death to pigs" was likely inspired by the Beatles' song "Piggies." Had police made the connection, they would have realized that "pig" was used in the previous murders at the Gary Hinman and Sharon Tate houses. At Hinman's, bloody writing said "political piggie" while "pig" was written at the Tate house."

Charles Manson was tested “clear” by the Scientologists.

He or his people stole an E-meter and had it at the Ranch.


http://www.lermanet.com/scientologyscandals/charlesmanson.htm

“A very effective thought control technique could also be worked out from Scientology, which could be used to make
individuals into willing slaves.” - L Ron Hubbard

...Right from the start, if you can get people to believe in two things that Hubbard taught as fundamental, you are well on your way to success as a cult leader:

1) Truth is a fiction; “truth” is relative.
2) The group (led by me and only me) is more important than you.

After that you can get people to do pretty much anything - like be willing participants in an organized crime cult. That’s what Hubbard and Manson both did, to different degrees of “success.”

-

Paul Krassner:

In 1971, I began to write an article, “The Rise of Sirhan Sirhan in the Scientology Hierarchy” for my satirical magazine, The Realist. Then, in the course of my research, a strange thing happened. I learned of the actual involvement of Charles Manson with Scientology. In fact, there had been an E-Meter at the Spahn Ranch where his “family” stayed. Suddenly, I no longer had any reason to use Sirhan Sirhan as my protagonist. Reality will transcend allegory every time. So, although I had announced that I was going to publish that article, I started investigating the Manson case instead. Nevertheless, Scientology sued me for $750,000 for just those nine words- whoops, there goes the whole petty cash account-but I chose to fight them on l st Amendment grounds, and they eventually dropped the suit.


Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama both have their cultists who are willing to take Charlie’s “Helter Skelter” fight to the streets.

I doubt he died of natural causes as he was being hospitalized for something they will not disclose (he was ill in January as well).

AIDS maybe? Heart failure? Cancer?

Neil Young worked with Manson on music.

And Steve McQueen was almost at the house that night but the woman he was with wanted quality time instead.

Both Obama and Hillary’s dream of taking “Helter Skelter” has thankfully been ended by one MAGA, Trump.

I will say that the biggest parlor game in LA and NY in the 1970s was “I was ALMOST going to Sharon’s house that night!” I’ve heard that all my life, including my old friend, the late, great John Springer. I can believe it about Steve, though.
