Here's another post many will "disagree with". I'm kinda known for writing posts like this anyway.. so doesn't matter.. lol.
Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme. I just read was released from prison. To me, this is actually "great news". I've supported her release for years.
If you don't know who she is, I'll tell you. She was one of "Charles Manson's followers". She wasn't at the "Tate Labianca" murders. She was the one that tried to pull a gun on "Gerald Ford".
She has maintained for 30 years (the whole time), she never intended to kill him. I believe it. There were bullets in the gun, but none in the chamber. She was trying to (in her head) bring up "environmental issues".
To me,, yes a nutso bitch. But a young and dumb nutso bitch. I believe in "punishment", but I also believe in "redemption". To me.. she served more time then she should have.
Think of this. She is now "60". Charles Manson is now "74 (I believe). I don't think he forced anyone to do anything (the facts don't support that to me), but he was obvious an older influence.. and they listened to him.
I just think she was a young stupid girl. Personally, I am glad she is out.. and can have a life now.
What do you think? (All but Red, pretty certain I know what he thinks).. lol
