Nice one Chompy.
I note with interest that 60s boogeyman and US justice system anomaly Charles Manson is up for his 13th parole application. Whilst there isn’t a doubt in my mind that he was and almost certainly is Very Bad News, he is 77 years old. He is also inside for the Tate/LaBianca murders when there is no suggestion that he actually carried them out himself.
He’s still locked up for being the personification of the ‘dirty hippies’ who ‘ruined’ America in the late 60s as much for anything else. He is a symbol of the brief spell when ‘old skool’ America lost its grip and for that reason I suspect he’ll never be let out. They were fucking terrified of him, to the extent that he was forbidden from giving evidence at his own trial in case he somehow hypnotized the jury. Seriously.
How fucking medieval is that? Stupid cunts.
Who else is a stupid cunt?

i got told i was better looking than her today (by my brother, lest this makes it sound more exciting than it really was). and it wasn't meant as a compliment ("even you are... etc"). it could become the left-handed compliment of the day.
also did anyone see "the undateables"? still LOLing at the tourettes dude whose date was running late. "FUCKING CUNT! FUCKING WHORE!! SLUT!!" haha.

Andrew Lansley
Given that the US have a track record of locking people up for long periods for lesser crimes it seems unlikely for him to ever be paroled. Also, despite not actually carrying out the murders, most legal systems have provision for joint enterprise in crime (I listened to a programme on the radio about it last night) and he was clearly directly involved in these murders.
But more importantly he is indirectly responsible for the group Kasabian and for this reason alone should never be freed.

Penelope Dingle and Francine Scrayen
The difference between them is that I think Dingle has now been punished enough for her idiocy (she's dead), whereas in I hope Scrayen is severely punished for her actions (telling Dingle that only homeopathy will cure her cancer, because a psychic told her it would happen.)
