Charles Manson is dead

I know you're not supposed to be happy when people die but *pops champagne bottles*

Yeah, I am not losing any sleep over this guy - he ruined too much.

I can't believe how successful he was despite the fact he was a white supremacist. Can't believe how many fans he's had who're defending him + his actions just because he had a rough childhood.

It's quite crazy how blind people can be, and how disconnected they can be, from the real world they are living in - just because they believe in something. Be it religion, an abusive husband or wife, money, .. drugs, .. or someone like Manson.

It's a good reminder for me that how rough times can get emotionally and how that screws with your mind. You believe in yourself and that the next day isn't like yesterday and you can make the best of it.

I see no reason why I would hurt or damage the lives of others just because I believe in something that I cannot see is simply ridiculous or because it has a hold over me.
