Robert F. Kennedy’s widow said on Tuesday she opposes the release of his murderer, Sirhan Sirhan, who has been recommended for parole.

“Bobby believed that we should work to ’tame human savagery and calm the lives of the world,’” 93-year-old Ethel Kennedy said in a statement.

“Our family and our country suffered an unspeakable loss due to the inhumanity of one man. We believe in the gentleness that spared his life, but in taming his act of violence, he should not have the opportunity to terrorize again.

I wonder how she feels about two of her sons supporting the parole?

The left hated RFK with a passion. I remember seeing a quote by Tom Haden that he hated RFK, but he had to go to the funeral for appearances. He wanted to tell people he was glad JFK and RFK were assassinated.

He looks to be in very fine health, lo these many years after. *spit*

Finally a shred of sanity out of a traditional Leftist camp.

Ya THINK???

I’ll bet he doesn’t have any problems with constipation.

I really don’t care what any of these degenerate Kennedy’s have to say about Sirhan Sirhan. It’s the court’s business, not theirs. They are irrelevant historical artifacts, and it is just brothel “journalism” to go seek out their emissions on the subject.

Humphrey was gonna be the nominee anyway, RFK might have been VP nominee. Could have been nominee in 1972 or 1976 and been elected.

He’d have been an awful President. I don’t understand why some on “our side” worship this ahole and his brother. But everyone hated Teddy and the rest of the family. They are/were all scum, starting with the father.

Is Ethel a leftist? Just wondering because the hypocrisy usually shines when they become victims. The most laughable was Yoko Ono who along with her husband John Lennon wrote a song called “Attica State” in the mid 1970s which had a line in it that said “Free all the prisoners”. Well in 1980 when a guy named Mark Chapman killed John, where did Chapman end up? Attica state, for 32 years before he was transferred to Wende. And every single time Chapman was up for parole at Attica, Ono vehemently opposed it.

Don’t confuse the old Democrats with what they call them now.

RFK JR is an idiot.

“RFK JR is an idiot”

Name ONE Kennedy that word doesn’t fit.
Just one.
I’ll wait.

RFK was a major influence in my joining the conservative movement. My parents were Democrats and my mother was a big fan of JFK. But until 1968, I had no interest in politics, which I considered to be about stuffed shirts and smoke-filled rooms. But I found myself cheering Governor Reagan's harsh criticism of President Johnson's handling of the Pueblo incident and when RFK threw his hat into the ring, I feared he would turn our country left. I declared myself a Republican on March 31, 1968.

Parole was granted.

[monkeyshine]

Tom Hayden?

[monkeyshine]

I think as the widow she should have been allowed to give a statement to the Parole Board. Or maybe they did away with all that silliness about letting victims be heard. /s

More than anything, he wanted to be a good father and loving husband.

That's probably what he was thinking as he was banging Marilyn.

[Veto!]

RFK Jr has a wonderful web site, “ Children’s Health Defense,” where he tells the truth about Fauci and Bill Gates creating the Wuhan virus to depopulate the world. I subscribe to his daily emails. Extraordinarily interesting, and well-thought-out.

My friend, a pharmaceutical company exec, thinks he’s brilliant and correct. She follows him too.

[hsmomx3]

I, too, like RFK, Jr’s site. It is very informative.

[Prince of Space]

RFK Jr. has some crazy ideas, but he’s right about Fauci & the CDC, NIH & FDA.
