Helter Skelter, or as they wrote in the victims' blood, "Healter Skelter."
That's embarrassing.

There's been a couple of movies about it. I remember seeing one back in the early 80's. Quentin Tarantino is actually set to make a movie about it. Pretty timely now that he has died.
I think those were made for tv movies. Tarantino is using Jennifer Lawrence to play Sharon Tate, which is a travesty.

That makes no sense for multiple reasons.

I was watching a Steve McQueen doc last night. If he wasn't so much of a poon hound, he would've been murdered along with the rest of those people that night.

Chasing pussy had killed a lot of men, that may be one of the few times it saved someone.

George W. Bush, Donald Rumsfeld, and Dick Cheney got a lot more Americans killed and maimed than HRC did, when they lied the country into a stupid adventure in Iraq which destabilized the Middle East to boot.

If they visit Hell again in 2018, I hope he makes it to next year's AMC "Preacher" series.

Manson was evil but let's be honest, there are far worse on death row.

Was he still married to that woman who said she was going to stuff him and take his carcass on tour after he croaked?

A lot of Manson's fame is just the cultural zeitgeist that it inspired and was wrapped up in its place in history. When it comes down to it he was just a very mentally ill, and delusional person who did some pretty fricked up stuff. But it really isn't all that special in itself, just the merits of the crime. Stuff just as fricked up happens every year, probably multiple times a year. He just happened to be in the right place at the right time to be part of some kind of cultural turning point and disillusionment of the hippy, peace and love cultural period.

I was simply responding to that idiotic post from the Trumptard above, and pointing out there are people ahead of HRC in line if conservatards want to start that crap.

Helter Skelter was a creepy arse book. Wasn't he boys with Brian Wilson?

I’m reading John Douglas’ book right now. He’s the guy that Minhunter based the Holden character on. I took this summary he gave in the book about Manson from another website.
John Douglas, the FBI profiler who was the model for Jack Crawford in "Silence of the Lambs" interviewed Manson at length, and his take on him was that he didn't fit the profile of a serial killer. Interestingly, Douglas doesn't believe Manson sent his followers out to kill people that first night, just to perform a terrifying home invasion, and he, Manson, was surprised to find out how far "Tex" Watson had gone.
This put him in the position of having to condone the murders or tacitly admit he had lost control of Watson. The latter would mean losing control of all his followers, so, to save face, he went out with them the next night, entered the victim's house alone, terrified them into letting themselves be tied up, then left and sent Watson and the rest in to kill them. He himself did not want to watch or participate.
Douglas does not think Manson would ever, ever admit this is how it went down, because his main drive was/is always to have psychological control of people. Allowing everyone in the world to think he intended his followers to kill all along, suits him just fine, because he'd rather be known as someone with that much personal power than as a cult leader who lost control to his second in command.

Was he tortured to death?
No I’m pretty sure that began the moment he took his last breath, and will continue for quite some time.
