The top story this morning is the news of Charles Manson dying at the age of 83, after being jailed for 48 years . Whatever he was, he has finally died and left us with the joy of no longer having to look at his face.
48 years in prison is a perfect example of waste beyond waste of tax payer dollars. I understand we want to do everything possible to make sure we get the conviction correct, but 48 years? Millions upon millions have been spent holding this murder and feeding and housing him on the tax payer dime.
I don’t have a lot to say about this and really don’t want to give this rotten individual another minute of air time. I simply want to point out that keeping people like him alive for this many years is an insult to those he killed and their families and an insult to tax payers. He should have been hung by the neck in downtown San Francisco three decades ago. Hopefully now, the very face of evil will no longer hit our television and news stands. You know, once all the media outlets get done printing his story, again…
