No. Listen to what he says. He was one of us. Yes he did,lots of drugs, etc. But the stories about him are all lies, just like everyone else they paint in a bad,light when they speak out against the system.
I have seen interviews and I'd say if nothing else, Manson was highly intelligent and articulate. His trial was obviously rigged and a farce. What WAS highly questionable, though, was the company he kept. the sources in the post above are sound; my impression is that he was set up as a scapegoat by the usual suspects. hunter s. thompson is mentioned above; if you are familiar with his non-fiction books, you will see that there was a large network of degenerate monied (chosen) people who kept various underground communities around like pets, officially just for shits and giggles. not many people talk about that, but taking another look at the 60s through that lens would probably be very revealing.

Are you serious? This is news to me. I don't believe the mainstream, but do you have any source or anything? Thanks.
