Veterans Day and Charles Manson's Birthday 11-11-1934

Picture, March 20, 2011

Death has no compassion less Death is the compassion for the life that hates itself.
Divine show of compassion to all & all the words on levels of someone else. All the words & ways of me & you, them, us, they, levels of creation melt in the coming of god 4 god is ALL sides. In god there is no good or bad; god is good & bad.
There is no up or down, god is all.
Piss ants don't need no books. Baby bugs don't need no rocking chairs, no toys or dress-up for no birthday parties.
God don't pray. Real don't die. Don't die don't live.
Feeling don't need words.
Understanding don't need to be understood.
What is don't need to be explained.
No need to teach GOD. All reborn Christians know Christ didn't die. 
It is over/under.

Charles Manson

IMPORTANT EMAIL FROM ARGENTINA.

Hello

I am Nicolás, I am from Argentina.
I address you to be able to achieve a greater diffusion in this environmental problem that exists in South America.
As you know the Amazon rainforests are one of the lungs of the earth. It's already 15 days in which a fire is devouring them.
No government, nor any means of communication alerted to this.
In social networks, this problem is gaining mass, we need the widest possible dissemination and demand that the Brazilian government and President Bolsonaro take appropriate measures to end this tragedy. So that vegetation, animals and native Amazonian tribes are not lost .
That is why I approach you so that you can give greater view to this problem that concerns us all!
Thank you so much
The Amazon jungle today ):

The only thing I miss is my friends.  And it’s almost impossible to have any friends at this level.  Jealousy is a great power.  

I wrote this:  Your fear goes to your worst and asks for help to destroy your fear.  But in truth, your fear is your best friend.  It protects you.  It protects everyone you love.  

You know, I’ve been in the Marines since I was fifteen years old.  The way that works is when you’re in reform school, most of your cottage supervisors and your staff are ex-soldiers and sailors.  Marines, retired from the service.  And they get jobs helping young boys in reform schools and boys schools.

Critical information now available:

Wildlife Services is a federal agency that shoots, traps, and poisons wild animals en masse at the behest of state governments, agricultural interests, and more. With a purported mission to reduce human-wildlife conflict and mitigate economic damage caused by wildlife, it kills many thousands of critters that come between ranchers or farmers and their profits, and it has done so for more than a century.

September 20, 1999

It would take more time than I have to play faces with people who playact with lies… I believe God will be much worse on the unreal as they are on themselves each day as they create more guilt, fear, and hate. Thirty years I’ve been punished, not for what I did, but for what people needed to balance the fear and confusion going on in between their ego games.

Over thirty years I told you I broke no law, yet you keep lying and say I was given a fair trial in court, and because I got no school in my brain you play me for a fool. The reason I don’t write and try to help myself in what’s called “you people” is because it’s used and mixed up with all the confusion “you people” play with your fears for money and past implants from the same twisted school heads who would eat Earth and or anyone else before they would bend to God’s will. They would spend 2000 more years running from themselves before being in God and God being in them. Even if they say it, they still won’t give up what they know is bad for them and Earth. They run on fear-based teachings coming from wars and schools where they hide and won’t accept anyone with a brain unless it’s got papers signed by dead people.

I’ve retired fifty years of lunch buckets and seen you grow up, eat your children’s minds, and retire lunch bucket after lunch bucket. You lock your best servant up because you fear the other side. You’re playing with past mind sets. Thirty years and I’ve not met four people who could set and talk to me looking in my eyes. Each finds an excuse to justify their pee-wee brains by calling someone else crazy or playing me as the evil and bad because I’m not like them.

It’s not if I’m bad or did crimes, it’s “We want you to be like us.” And at the same time you all follow TV movie hate images to hell. I stood up for you all and was burned, was disrespected, and fucked over more by the people of Christ. That showed me and the millions of eyes that watch me (that) there was no love there. So God loves the love given. He gives it right back because God is love….

I don’t need school to learn what’s in my own mind. And they don’t teach you how to use your brains, they teach you how to get a job and work for god money and come back justifying and dancing the lies and ego, will for greed etc.

I don’t want to be the judge. Two P.A.’s were fired for making two black inmates cut their hair. I want to fire the people who took the weights off the yard and are trying to cut beards and hair.

The WORD of the warden of Death Row said “Death Row is coming down now. What must we do, as CDC, to keep you from treating us as pigs and killing us?” (The) deal was cut and set. “OK, you respect us, we respect you.”

We are not dogs. We are men and would like boxes from home so we can have slippers for our feet and a bathrobe so we don’t need to run naked to the shower. (We want) some of our lives back to be as human, a radio we can change and listen to what we want, and end the CDC brain… Radio and TV would help some of the men who are confined for a long time. (We want) our music (guitar) and music programs funded by the MAC (men’s advisory council), our welfare to have a wife and visits without a bunch of cops trying to show more manhood to convict’s wives who already killed people for disrespecting their loved one’s family.

There are those among us who would fight for God and Country, and soldiers who have served are not pigs.  And CDC (staff) who respect are not pigs. They will be just as much human as they let us be. Your hat is a little off center, my crowned jewel… You’re blinded by un-love zombies who need others to feed on, and you keep me helpless because you’re helpless; locked in your fear and doubts of what may happen or “What will so-and-so think?” etc. Your prison is much worse than mine.

I’m thirty years locked in cages and picked on. Why don’t you give me thirty more days in my cage and take some more of the summer away from me? Has the last thirty days of my life been good for you? Has hurting me and using me to look over your doubts and fears helped you? Thirty days of my time – one day at a time – is about twenty years of yours.

I did wonder why Earth people got old so fast. Staying a child, I just never went to school and learned how to be a people…

Rich people get favors. Manson is rich, but not permitted to do art or send photos or art. Everything I owned was taken time after time and called “contraband.” Anything I do, I’m accused of making money, like it’s a sin. My life itself has been outlawed ever since my father died in the War and my mom went to prison for trying to feed me at fifteen years old.

For over fifty years I’ve been raised in your punishments; not for what I did or do, (but) because I’m not a bully like you. I’ve done nothing to no one. I owe no one, and people keep using me bad.

I have learned that the rights they say you have are only if you have money or a place you were born into. Being right is not enough. Respect is not respected as should (be). Respect is covered up by a bigger fear. Fear is a big control in some minds.

P.S. – Everyone that is getting off on gun laws are not on line with ATWA. Pollution is gonna kill us all, as people fight each other for bunkum plays.

You can't keep playing law and order when prisons are filled with poor people that have been fighting for change in ATWA (air trees water animals), (when) you keep claiming their efforts and running for office and making movies, and others play act our efforts for money.

Money is not the answer. Covering us up, distorting – you law and order freaks are breaking all the laws one way as they kick down on others with their misunderstandings and warped thought patterns.

How can you keep destroying Manson family when you are the Manson family? Not giving us our rights don’t give you rights, and to keep thinking you got any more rights than Manson is pure bunk. You got the same rights you give. You get the same protection of your own life that you give life.

- Charles Manson

All I can find is me, and me is selfish. I want Air, Love, Trees and green, Water, and I'm a beast bug fish snake. I love ALL as I do me, and if it's not me in that, it's OUT of my world. Almost all of them are gone again. The media and money are hanging on. That's a rerun, when I turn that off it will fade away. All I need is ATWA and the people working for that are my-me's.

- Charles Manson, 2009

----

I'm not broken.  I'm not beaten.  My own holy revolution against pollution is still in full swing. 

- Charles Manson

----

We must transcend the normal faces, places, and such, into a vacuum of thought that moves beyond time, in space mind, ships do wonder thunder dreamers on. And the ship will be based on: What can you do to save me? What can we do to save my air? My atmosphere. My atmosphere is dying everywhere. How do we turn off this pollution? It is destroying all life on the planet Earth. 

- Charles Manson

----

Time is man made. In his struggle to become life, he has made all kinds of traps to game himself in and out of games. To open up the mind, you must come to realize death, time, war, words - are traps also and must be understood to roots and tips. Much has never been understood, and even understanding has not been fulfilled in its complete. 

Understand = what?

As soon as you understand what you think, something changes it and you start over looking for a new understanding. To start over is almost impossible. You must understand what you misunderstood, and that's in the wheels of the circle of endless starting overs that never started, as it's always starting and ending, that's never ended. Time has made a wall in the mind, brains, books, words and ways of thoughts that make the REAL PRISON. What is it? Before time, it took 10 million years to make a cup to drink water, and millions of years to make up and mix stuff to put in it. 

IN ORDER TO REDEEM LIFE WE MUST GO BACK BEFORE TIME- Land our minds and thoughts before before before - ONE REAL Thought can set all thoughts over and over... We only need a few words - WORK would be called love, green love. 

- Charles Manson, Letter May 2009

December 24, 2018  Winter Solstice- New Sun-Earth year- Best Regards to all who love defend and nurture Earth.

ATWA -  AIR Trees Water Animals -

“Our minds have been moving through eternity, for eternity is the coming of intelligent life-forms.  You are either intelligent enough to abide and obey by the rules and laws of Gods’ will, or you do not exist at all.

You are the enemy on planet Earth. I am the enemy on planet Earth. I’m polluting the ground with toothpaste.  I’m polluting the earth with mouthwash. I’m polluting the waters with soap, with bleach, with hair dye. I’m polluting…everything I touch is polluting.

The birth of life on the planet has got to be green, it’s got to come through the bushes, it’s got to come through the trees, it has to come through the seaweeds and the fish, the birds, the bees. Your bumble bees are dying. Your trees are being warred on.

We must rearrange, and I per say, think that ATWA can direct the war.  War on pollution, war on the problem – not war on Life.

IN ORDER TO REDEEM LIFE, WE MUST GO BACK BEFORE TIME – land our minds and thoughts before before  before- ONE REAL THOUGHT can set all the thoughts over and over… We only need a few words. Work would be called Love, green Love.

… What’s needed is, the CCC, the Conservation Corps of the world, must start new jobs and must be in new economies, with new credit cards and new banks and new numbers, to the conservation of all life on the planet.

All is God– All will is God’s will– Everyone’s will is life on Earth.

What you do is the will of yours. If you are your life in and with what you do, what you do is from you. Whatever you destroy destroys you. What you create, you make up for yourself. If you take my property, you forfeit your possessions. If you take my rights, your rights are gone with inside your dreams, and that’s about money to most.

To Charles Milles Manson, it is soldiers of the dead. All my soldiers are God’s army of the dead who live forever in the ATWAr, forever at war- ATWAr soldiers are forever’s stars for ALL life on Manson’s Earth- God’s soldiers give ALL to LOVE.”

Charles Manson

Lynette Fromme's story of her life with Charles Manson 1967 -- 1969

It's about the Charles Manson I perceived, and a gathering of people preparing to survive either a revolution, or the static institutions that were systematically trading all of our vital necessities for money."

-- Lynette Fromme, 2018

Includes never before published writings from Charles Manson, Sandy, Cappy, Mary, Brenda, Ouisch, Gypsy, Clem, and Katie.

June 13, 2018

Be sure to get your copy of author George Stimson's newest book "Goodbye Helter Skelter". The Charles Manson quote below is on page 108, and is a compilation from tape recorded conversations between CM and Sandra Good, Sandra Good Archives.

"...There ain't nobody but yourself in love. 'Cause love gives but itself, takes not but from itself, possesses not, and nor will it be possessed, because it's sufficient to itself. Love is one. And I'm the one with that love on that ranch, with those marks and those dogs and those horses and my Lord George. Period.

When we were in now at the ranch, we were now. We lived in now. And now is eternal. We live right now. There is no time in my mind. I live right now. I've been right now ever since 1934. And I'm still right now. And I don't really have all those considerations that you have. Those considerations that you have is what you got from your mother.

You and I, and the people at the ranch, we've had a place that we could give our loyalty to. We've had a center, a circle of each other, to where we had somebody that was holding their loyalty to us, so we held our loyalty to them.

We were supposed to be, and represent, a rebirth movement. We were reborn - not into the same old graveyard, not into the same old death trap. We started a rebirth movement. That rebirth movement was ours. It came from our mind. It is ours. It's our God. It's our church. It's our wedding ring. It's our life. It's our world. And anyone that obstructs that, is fucking with our justice. And our justice is the same justice that Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton and all them guys laid out in the Constitution of the United States of America. "The land of the free and the home of the brave" and all that..."

Here's the bottom line on this whole thing. We got peace on earth at that ranch. We had it. We didn't have to go off of there. It wasn't my problems that took us down the road. I'm still at the ranch. I'm still there, and the horses are still there. And old man George is still there, and I got his cane.

It's right now. It's the same now that was then. That now is right now..."

April 27, 2018

Lynnette "Red" Fromme survived 37 years in United States Federal penitentiaries: this is a paraphrased conversation with her regarding the conditions of confinement and subsequent health ailments endured by Charles Manson.

“Prison kills you.  Serving long terms incarcerated, real sentences of 20, 30 years and more - kill the body.  It's essentially impossible and of great difficulty to counteract.  

Almost all the time of your day is confined to a closet made of concrete and metal.  It's almost impossible to exercise in it, there's only really room to sit or lay.  You have to actively think of ways to get your body moving so it doesn't deplete, without getting bored.  The environment inside a prison is clinical and sterile.  They are mandated and instructed to overuse multiple harsh, toxic, chemical cleansers and disinfectants to mop floors and wash walls daily.  Nothing exists.  Pesticides kill what insects the cleaning agents didn't.  The disinfectants and bleach kill all the bacteria, and all your food options are a choice of one processed package food or the other... there's no nutrition... and everything is heated and radiated in microwaves.  

No one dies of old age or natural causes in prison.  There's nothing natural about it.  Your body cannot live without bacteria.  Your digestive system is dependent on beneficial bacteria in order to live.  You die without it.  The prisons are so sanitized that no bacteria can exist.  You can feel it inside you.  It's no surprise at all that his stomach and intestines are corroded.  It is remarkable that he survived and avoided it this long!  Your only options are to order some yogurt when it’s available, trade for it or to order a probiotic supplement when it's available; but that wasn't popular yet when I was in jail and wasn't available like it is now.”

MEDIA ALERT: April 1, 2018

- Gray Wolf - 

While we consider together the November 19, 2017 passing of Charles Manson, I strongly suggest that we not fall for the business-as-usual corporate media babble that is published world-wide under the guise of "factual news".
 

One of the catch phrases used by the media to report CM's passing was, "Charles Manson died of natural causes." No way!!
From my experience with Charlie, it is my belief that he, like countless other inmates held by the CDC and other prison systems throughout the USA, died from;


1.) Shockingly sub-standard preventative medical care.
2.) Years and years and years of existence on a poor nutritional diet, i.e., lack of fresh greens, lack of whole grains, lack of fresh vegetables, and a lack of fresh fruits.(No chance at all to get organic foods.)
3.) Absolutely no availability of fresh "purified" water.
4.) Constant exposure to toxic and carcinogenic chemicals from institutional soaps, waxes, pesticides, paints and bleach.
5.) Shocking lack of fresh air, sunshine and outside exercise options.
6.) Scandalous lack of social interactions with fellow human beings.


[With time, solitary confinement kills,  with time steel bars, poor lighting, and concrete walls, ceilings, beds and floors, kill.]

3.17.18... Ash and Bone

Charles Milles Manson’s body was put to fire at 13:23 hours of 3.17.18.
119 days after Charles left the body lying in chains on a hospital bed in Bakersfield on 11.19.17. a service was held in which a viewing was part of the cremation/funeral service in Porterville, CA.
Charles’ body lying in a coffin looked like a pharaohs or a monks or a Confederate Generals body.
While Charles’ body burned the Inner Sanctum said prayers, played music and sang songs with our (R) coming generations. There is no such thing as death and the cult is alive, All The Way Alive –
In The Air, The Trees, The Water and The Animals Charles’ body’s ashes were spread in the Sierras, where the equinox had already painted the landscape with greens of grass, nettle and poison oak, purples of lupine and datura, oranges of poppy and monkey flower…red soil, stone, and sun, grey boulders and clouds, brown oak and water…
The sky was stormy and as soon as the ceremonial ash spreading began the wind kicked up, cold, and the sky darkened. Grey, ashen faces…

Into the black night the procession of vehicles departed… And the rain fell.

*The shallow unworthy cess cult of celebrity can’t take anything away from the experience this circle shared other than showing the world Charles’ beauty, even in Death, by infiltrating trusting hands and making a few bucks for being pieces of shit… however the leaked photo doesn’t show the medals that were placed on Charles’ chest or the lock of Reds hair or the knife, the rings, the eagle and owl feathers…

"Bring In The Clowns"
- Gray Wolf -
Los Angeles, CA.
January 30, 2018

The ever-so-interesting group of people assembled here now, filing Wills and Writs in the Southern California courts for ownership of the body and possessions and estate of Charles Millis Manson, all say publicly that they want to quickly "end The Circus."
Yes, indeed. They want so earnestly to turn our attention from the painfully obvious fact that they ARE The Circus.
These people and their attendants are the Clowns; clowns here to coverup and diffuse the troublesome image of the bloody crucifixion that went before:
the famously hyped forty eight years-long crucifixion of Charles Manson, on the Iron Cross of the industrial torture-slave-trade prison system known locally as the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
The CDCR is the public administrative arm of the business-as-usual, media-supported profit frenzy, that was initiated by the sham "Trial of the Century" in 1970-71; an unhinged media blood and horror fest that continues unabated today before our very eyes. 
This most public of crucifixions has now climaxed in the purported death of your scapegoat, reported live to the world in a breathless hysteria, while from behind the purposeful, wretched, curtain of lies, your Rights and Efforts and Lives have all been stolen and misused, in order to manifest an international holocaust against your living Oceans, against your living Forests, your Lakes and Rivers, your Farms and your skies of Air. 
The actors and players displayed before you now, are but reflections and foretellings of the suffering and death you will face, as confusion reigns and your life-support-systems fail, as you watch your children and their futures disappear beneath an onslaught of the insatiable and merciless MACHINE BEA$T; the very beast that you yourselves have created through your greed and by your stone-hearted blind indifference.

Ladies and Gentlemen, step right up! 
Enjoy the Show!

January 20, 2018

As the vultures circle overhead, we will continue to celebrate Charlie’s spirit.

Because of the many questions I’ve received from people asking to clarify the reality of what they’ve been reading in the news concerning the ‘battle’ over Charlie’s remains, I’m releasing this concise statement.

Charlie and those closest to him were under the impression that after his death, his body and worldly possessions would be in the hands of the State of California, as per regulation.  It is well known by those closest to Charlie - and prison staff - that Charlie purposefully did not have a CDCR Form 7421 (Advance Directive for Health Care) on file.  The Form 7421 is how California inmates address their end of life wishes (i.e. "do not resuscitate order" and organ donor choices) and appoint relatives to receive their remains upon their death.  It was his choice, again and again throughout the years, each time he was asked by prison staff to appoint a person with this paperwork, to refuse to do so.  

The only person with legal standing to claim Charlie's remains is Jason Freeman, because he is Charlie's actual grandson.  

Charlie did not have a Will.  Any Will brought forward is fraud.  If he had had a Will, it would have been on file with the prison accompanied by the proper paperwork mentioned above.  

Anyone coming forward with a claim for Charlie’s body and possessions is doing so because Charlie is now unable to speak for himself.  This is the unequivocal truth.

11.11.1934-11.19-2017

My friend, my brother Charles Milles Manson, is now free and in the world all around you. 
Unbroken. Unchained.
He left no possessions, nor his body, to anyone.
He knew how to die and I am beyond honoured to have known him, and to have been with him, during those final days of his “sentence”.
No anger. No malice. No regret…
Only the lonesome suffering of a tyranny of lies and judgment- marketed to entertain a dead mass who despise him- but he carried that stone almost half a century and transformed your ignorance, rejection and gullibility into a perfect crystal of a radiant and blinding light…
a hue you may never know.
But to those who know… You Know You Know.
– Black Wolf

It’s taken a long time to come to this point.  This point is in essence of, the desire of righteousness in the words that you will read.  Gray Wolf is from the graves of the Southland, in the color of grays like the waves that you see in the tide that comes in from the ocean.  And all the oceans contents are the tears of my Star girl, who come from God.  And all reasonings, logics, deductive to deduce, comparative to compare, to understand the Love of a child of God who is becoming a moving force on the planet Earth, now.  Beyond the desire and whims of fools, play not in the darkness of my Love, for it is known through the world of the underdreamers who have dreamers dreaming dreams of their dreams, come back from the graves of slaves and crawl through the pillars of Hell, in the creepy crawlies in the hallways of always.  As these words come from three sincere, to say the least, high priest of treachery, lies, fakes and phonies, double dealers, and the tyranny of all those who would be the coming of themselves, coming backwards to say, I am what I left behind me, and yesterday follows me every day.

Belief that each one of the corners in this pyramid of information that we are endeavoring to put forward is, by its own right, divine intervention towards a cause that’s greater than three corners.  It’s much more than we could scribe or play important with, because it is so great in itself, that all life on the planet Earth is going to ……………. ….  There is no way to get away, except, if we all get away together.  We can all get away from it together, but the way to get away from it is, we’ve got to replace it with something brand new.  So as we run from our problems, we don’t go to war with ourselves, we war against what’s already at war with us.  So we transgress against no one who’s not transgressing against us, and we love everyone that loves us.  Those who play and prey upon us as if we were the prey, and they were the predator, will find that that the ultimate end is that everything turns around, and all those who have played the prey are now the predators.  And all you big bad motherfuckers out there, who think you’ve got over and got away with something – the only thing you got away with is your own destruction.  Because it’s right behind you in all shapes and forms.  Because in righteousness, there is a divine, and in righteousness, that person that you think has been following you, is God.  He follows you all.  God, not in the shape and form as a religion, or propaganda, or programming by some Jew's media, but the righteous of all that is real within the soul of all you can feel.  And your observation is the most powerful thing you’ve got.  So the suggestion is from the devil himself, you use your powers of observation, and begin to look around you and find out just exactly… where your socks are, haha, and who’s got your shoes, and which way you’re gonna be going from now on.  And it’s not what NBC and CBS and ABC is telling you.  You better get to looking at your rainforests.  Better get to looking at your subjugators.  Subjugators, that’s you, we’re talking to you, wake up subjugators.  We know you’re not alligators, cause you don’t have teeth, hahaha  you lost your teeth……….   

So we do a regular radio show, you know, about:  Go to your medicine cabinet.  And look at all the things in your medicine cabinet that says “we kill 99% of the germs” – And realize that you are a germ.  And what all those chemicals are doing that you’re passing out, they’re selling you to pass all those chemicals out because Proctor and Gamble has been trying to destroy all of you all the way down the line.  We’re all the way back to the beginning of the ending, for each time it ended it began again.  And no one wanted to accept the fact that, this is the Inner Sanctum.  We’re standing a hundred years ago, looking into your gas chamber.

September 27, 2017     - Quotes by Charles Manson -

"ATWA can only be redeemed by a world mind changing of lifestyles. I could explain but I'm always being cut off by people like R.D. & others who want to be me. They want to be Stars or leaders. They spend lifetimes learning how to get votes & how to be someone for jobs and power plays that do nothing but make movies or play act some game that makes money & in the inner circle of that, they don't care for trees & don't see life - only $ money."

"It took 360 million years for the SUN to orbit, and five times that long to build a man from the real powers of a million suns in forever. If your mind's brain is free and real, that's about two weeks in Manson time."

"Time is far out - like I got forever but only a little time on Earth with it. When I'm gone that's it - I could of left a lot behind but no one cared & God [holds] that judgement."

"Beyond the living & the Dead is where I say what I said - Right On in my Hallways of all ways."

Mensenrechten voor Charles Manson

Het is maar weer eens duidelijk geworden dat er met betrekking tot de dagelijkse zorg, het welzijn en de medische behandeling van Charles Manson die vastzit in de California State Prison Corcoran een ongelooflijk gebrek aan administratief toezicht is.

De pijnlijke en bestraffende manier van de toepassing van de regels en de voorschriften op de heer Manson is een voortdurende kwestie bij CSP Corcoran; nu dramatisch geïllustreerd door het urenlange gebruik van een vastbindsysteem met acht klemmen op de 82-jarige Manson, dit tijdens zijn meest recente medische procedure. 

In de voorschriften van de CDCR staat dat het bij wet verboden is voor het personeel of het administratief personeel, die immers worden betaald en ondersteund door ons eigen belastinggeld, om op corrupte of hardhandige wijze middelen toe te passen.

Het publiek en de wereldwijde media worden hierbij nogmaals op de hoogte gesteld dat bepaalde medewerkers van de CSP zich achter een schijnheilig masker verschuilen om de heer Manson onrechtmatig te straffen en het hem lastig te maken. 

CM behoort tot een kleine groep in de gevangenis met buitengewone kwalificaties en privileges, maar wordt toch 24 uur per dag in een cel in de medische vleugel van de gevangenis vastgehouden. Zijn enige mogelijkheid om zijn cel te verlaten, is wanneer hij per dag een uur lang 'alleen’ in een afgesloten betonnen ruimte mag lopen. 

Zowel internationale als Amerikaanse vrienden en supporters van Charles Manson eisen nu dat deze discriminerende behandeling onmiddellijk wordt gestopt.

Om te voorkomen dat er weer een Federaal paneelonderzoek wordt uitgevoerd, dat de laatste keer dat het bijeengeroepen werd de ziekenhuisvergunning van CSP Corcoran consequent wegens meerdere zaken van nalatige effectieve patiëntenzorg had ingetrokken, moet de administratie van CSP onmiddellijk met het pesten en de discriminatie van de heer Manson en de onophoudende onverschilligheid ten aanzien van zijn behandeling, zijn rechten en zijn vereisten, stoppen.

July 28, 2017 -  HUMAN RIGHTS FOR CHARLES MANSON

It has once again become apparent that there is a scandalous lack of administrative oversight at California State Prison Corcoran, with regards to the daily care, well-being, and medical treatment of Charles Manson.

The application of rules and regulations in a torturous and punitive manner against Mr. Manson has been a continuing issue at CSP Corcoran; now illustrated dramatically by the hours-long use of an eight point strap-restraint tie down on the 82-year-old Manson, during his most recent medical procedure.

The regulations in place for the CDCR are prohibited by law from being applied in a corrupt or punitive fashion by any staff or administration personnel, who, after all, are paid and supported by our own tax dollars.

The public and the worldwide media are hereby notified once again, that certain CSP staff are hiding behind a false "good guy" mask in order to illegally punish and harass Mr. Manson. 

CM has the highest inmate privilege-group rating, but is being kept in a cell in the prison medical wing 24 hours a day. His only option for leaving his cell is a one hour "walk alone" outside, on a fenced concrete pad. 

Friends and supporters of Charles Manson, both international and American, are now demanding that this discriminatory treatment be halted immediately.

In order to avoid another Federal oversight-panel investigation, which consequentially revoked CSP Corcoran's hospital license due to multiple lapses in effective patient care the last time it convened: CSP administration must immediately stop all harassment and discrimination against Mr. Manson, and cease any callous indifference towards his treatment, rights, and requirements.

CSP Corcoran Ombudsman-
PORTUGUESE TRANSLATION

"Mais uma vez, tornou-se evidente a existência de uma vergonhosa falta de fiscalização administrativa na Penitenciária de Corcoran do Estado da Califórnia no que se refere aos cuidados diários, ao bem-estar e ao tratamento médico de Charles Manson.

A aplicação de regras e regulamentos de forma torturante e punitiva contra o Sr. Manson tem sido um problema constante na Penitenciária de Corcoran, ilustrada dramaticamente agora através do uso excessivamente prolongado de correia de contenção de oito pontas em Manson, de 82 anos, durante seu último tratamento médico.

Os regulamentos em vigor no Departamento de Correção e Reabilitação da Califórnia (CDCR) são proibidos por lei de serem aplicados de forma perversa ou punitiva por qualquer funcionário ou pessoal da administração, que são, afinal de contas, pagos e sustentados por nossos próprios impostos.

O público e a mídia mundial são notificados através deste manifesto, mais uma vez, de que certos funcionários da Penitenciária de Corcoran do Estado da Califórnia estão se ocultando por detrás de uma falsa máscara de "bons rapazes" a fim de punirem e perseguirem ilegalmente o Sr. Manson.

Charles Manson possui a classificação mais alta dentro do grupo privilegiado de reclusos, mas está sendo mantido 24 horas por dia em uma cela na ala médica da prisão. A única opção que possui de deixar sua cela é "caminhar sozinho" durante uma hora fora, numa plataforma de concreto cercada.

Amigos e defensores internacionais e americanos de Charles Manson estão exigindo neste momento que tal tratamento discriminatório seja imediatamente suspenso.

A fim de evitar mais uma investigação do Painel de Fiscalização Federal que revogou, como consequência, a licença do hospital da Penitenciária de Corcoran do Estado da Califórnia devido a múltiplas falhas no atendimento eficaz a seus pacientes na última vez em que foi convocada, a administração da Penitenciária Estadual de Corcoran deve suspender imediatamente toda e qualquer perseguição e discriminação contra o Sr. Manson, assim como cessar a indiferença cruel pelo seu tratamento, por seus direitos e por suas necessidades".

“When the circumstances are right, everything becomes a dance. And then, there's this communication that happens on Earth between the animals and the people. And when you're in the woods, when you're some place like the redwoods - when you are in the presence of a thousand year old, or three thousand year old tree that's as big as a house, it puts you in your place. When it came to animals, he wanted to know "What are you and what do you do? He didn't say those words, but more or less, he looked at each animal as an interesting creature and he wanted to know how it lived and what it was here for. And everything has that purpose, that nice, circular balance of plant life, of animal life. We have a planet that needs all the help it can get and people are not number one, you know.”

''Love in truth is worship and begins with worship of the earth we walk on, the air we breathe, the water we drink and so on. The country has the resources and the young and old energy alike to clean it up and provide new purpose for living, new thoughts that send a mind spiraling upward and outward, not into the drug stores, booze bottles and morgues.''

Red – Lynette Fromme

"...Air man, air is the thing we need. Without the air we would not be. To be is to know your self and the self that is seen. You can only fool yourself if you don't want more air. You don't take your own air & keep ahold of it.

Air is not for one's self but for all. Keep the air for yourself by keeping the air for all.

How do you keep air when you're giving it away to the power company's greed? and the oil money, and the trucks are taking the air.

You can't blame them 'cause they are you.

We're all babies on the floor with a lot to learn. 

People are dirty, animals are clean, and plants are green.

Go back to the horses, stop the trucks and cars. The only way to live is to save the air man, green saves air by making air. The land should be green and natural, not a concrete jungle. The roads and buildings are the ways you are told is right... If you're wrong and I'm right, aren't you right too? 

What is right?? There ain't no right, like there ain't no wrong...Just like no sense makes sense.

There is only truth. DON'T LIE!!

There is only truth, don't lie to yourself. Be truth to yourself, to save the air man you need to see the truth, I am telling you the truth, you know I don't lie!! 

With truth you can see the real deal of the concrete and steel, the oil and the gas, the death of the air. You have to see the truth - you have to be the truth, ATWA is truth. Support ATWA and find the truth. Air is life, trees make air, water feeds all, and animals eat the green.

ATWA is the circle, let's all help ATWA and keep the circle rolling around the Green, Air, Treen, Water and Animals.

Easy, "

Charles Manson

SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOR THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT NO. 1O4 HON. CHARLES H. OLDER, JUDGE

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, Plaintiff, vs. CHARLES MANSON, SUSAN ATKINS, LESLIE VAN HOUTEN, PATRICIA KRENWINKEL, Defendants. NO. A253156

REPORTERS' TRANSCRIPT

FILED NO. [on] - Sept 24, 1971 G.E. Bishel, Clerk Deputy

ALL FEMALE DEFENDANTS: (In unison.) Hail Caesar.

THE BAILIFF: No talking while court is in session.

DEFENDANT MANSON: Your Honor, may I suggest that the Court continue to try itself, as it has been doing a very poor job of showing the public any justice. You’ve only shown your force and your power.

THE COURT: Mr. Manson, I order you to sit down, sir Remain quiet during the proceedings so that we can continue this trial. You are now disrupting this trial.

DEFENDANT MANSON: (Singing)   That old black magic has me in its spell. That old back magic that you keep so well. Those icy fingers --

THE COURT: I order you once again to sit down, sir, and stop this.

DEFENDANT MANSON: I’d like to go back to my room and relax. You can handle your own matters.

THE COURT: Sit down, sir.

DEFENDANT MANSON: I find it hard not to do what I’m told because all my life I’ve done what I have been told.

THE COURT: All right, sir. We are going to continue this trial.

DEFENDANT MANSON: Now, your Honor, if you would allow me to maintain a voice, I could probably bring to you the thought that I have done what I’m told.

THE COURT: I order you to stop, sir.

DEFENDANT MANSON: You have been ordering me forever. All my life you have ordered me. You have ordered me to cease to live. You bring me in here and you charge me for murder and you say I have rights and you hold up rights in front of me but you give me none.

THE COURT: If you don’t stop, Mr. Manson, I’m going to have you removed from the courtroom.

DEFENDANT MANSON: Okay. That’s all right. I’m not here anyway. You can put a picture up here and prosecute yourselves. Because that’s all you’re doing.

THE COURT: Are you ready to proceed now, sir?

DEFENDANT MANSON: I’ve been ready to proceed. May I ask the man some questions?

THE COURT: No, you may not.

DEFENDANT MANSON: I can’t speak? I’m a dummy, a (?)

THE COURT: We are going to go ahead now.

DEFENDANT MANSON: You are going ahead. But where are you going ahead to? Look at yourselves. Look at all of you. Where are you going? You’re going to destruction, that’s where you’re going. You will end up being judged. That’s what you’re going to do. All of you. Everyone of you. It’s your judgement day, not mine. I’ve already judged me.

THE COURT: Remove Mr. Manson from the courtroom.

DEFENDANT MANSON: Have a good day. I will. Every day is a good day for me.

April 06, 2017   - God and Man -

Let me tell you something that’s very important. If a man has a problem, and works all of his life on that problem….knowing that he cannot solve that problem, but he can move that problem a little further down the road…. And each time a man becomes a man, whatever that is, it hasn’t got anything to do with sexual preferences, it hasn’t got anything to do with what a guy wears, or how he talks or how strong he is.  It’s the mind of knowing in the truth of righteousness, and being able to analyze, the power of observation, to observe, and the realization that is… one Life: God.  And when God is realized in the man, it’s not a denomination or a story book.  It’s not an illusion or a game or a play.  It’s not for attention or approval.  It’s not for man.  It’s only for God that God is God.  God is not God for man.  God is God because God is everything that is, and there’s no man in it.  It’s eternal….Life…. it’s in the man.   And it says this, to my intelligence:  I’ve been a lifetime in a cell trying to figure this problem out.  Not trying, just automatically.  I can’t sleep without thinking. I can’t live without something beating in my chest or functioning in my soul and my life that says this:  There is only one way.   There can be no dissension. There can be no division; there can be no question about it. What is must be to be what is.  If life is going to be on this planet, it has to come in perfect order with the atmosphere it breathes.  If it doesn’t have that, then there is nothing else.  Everything must be sacrificed for one principle in one order, in one life, in one air, on one world, in one Earth, in one mind, that has nothing to do with human beings.  Human beings are the problem.   They’re the ones that are creating the decisions that are destroying the life on earth.  And all life will be lost on Earth if you don’t deal with the human problem.  Human is the problem, people are the problem.  The oil doesn’t hurt people. It’s the people that are maneuvering the oil that’s hurting people. 

You know when I say something, I mean what I say and I say what I mean.  I’m telling you, stop that goddamn fossil fuel or it will stop life on the planet Earth.  If you’re going to have air on this planet, you’ve got to change, or…. go.  One way or another, sooner or later, the Will of God will be realized on this planet.  It’s got nothing to do with how many websites you’ve got or how many people are reading your books or talking about what’s written on your t-shirt, or how long your hair is or whether you’re gonna be a friend with somebody or an enemy with someone else or…… All that human garbage goes back to the Pharaoh, -arrow, that shot off into the sun when the Pharaoh said that, “There is no one but God, and you do the Will of God or you do not exist.”  It goes back to the slaves, and you see that the slave is happy, and he welcomes his harness that pulls a wagon that’s going to pull him out of that fuckn’ fossil fuel, and put him back on the road to life. ATWA is the final equation, for the Pharaohs’ grave is the darkness of the prisons.  For eternity is within cockroaches, spiders, and bugs.

 I gave all mine to an old blind man who had fought all of his life, who gave his life and his sons lay in the graves of eternal life.  The Grateful Dead said, “Alcatraz was just a pelican standing on a mountain, looking at the ocean.”  The bird is God. We must work for the birds and all the different animals that are gods.  The Army?... look in the zoo,  for your General, and say that we know them animals are our gods, in our heads.  And get back to the planet as fast as we can, for air and water. And STOP CUTTING DOWN THE DAMN TREES for stupid things.  You’ve already got all them things, man.

 You know basically, the average person that don’t know anything, has to be working to do something. And all the jobs have already been put out in place by the dead.  What’s needed is, the CCC, the Conservation Corps of the world, must start new jobs and must be in new economies, with new credit cards and new banks and new numbers, to the conservation of all life on the planet.  We started the CCC in California, and it was given to the veterans with wheelchairs out of the wars. Those are realities that will help survival on the planet Earth, man. Sooner or later it’ll be realized.

"If you could get everybody that’s watching football, basketball, and baseball, to accept the truth in words, and you tell all those people a simple message – that if you don’t start planting and putting back into the earth everything that you’ve taken from it, you’re all going to die and perish in a cruel terrible way, forever. It’s not complicated.

The truth is that you’re not going to get anything unless you pay for it.  You’re getting away with the bounty of all those sacrifices that your army and your soldiers made for you.  The only ones that are worth anything is the soldiers, because they serve their God, and they give their lives for that. 

You have a chance to be reborn.  That means start over - all over.  If you don’t start it all over, you’re gonna have nothing left.  And you don’t have no time, you’ve wasted it all." 

Zezo Zeze Zadfrack

      -PAPER BUNK TRUNK-

You can harvest another man’s grain from his fields - take his wife and milk his cow, take his life in a war.

Lock up his door and body in a prison, torment his soul.

Steal his years of youth, drink his wine, rip the tears from his eyes.

Claim his wisdom, take his pride, rip out his guts, put your maggots in his blood.

There are a lot of things you can raise your male child to be.  You can even teach him to be a girl and raise him to fear his own heart. But the real of a man is HONOR and that’s his god and all that goes forever unsaid.

For the real of man goes on and on undead, and stands with the dead - you cannot break the broken or un-slave the slaved.

Whatever’s done to man is given to you in your own will by the love in Honor’s love, God and the man who is in everything,

because there is no one in Everyone.

ALL is LOVE HONOR SUN SOLDIER.

When you try to get your man from another man’s efforts, not only do you destroy the efforts that may’ve helped your own efforts to survive, but you take away from your own man and become a whatever you want to call it – you know what it is – you can’t grow your own garden?  What?

[By seeing what you did not do shows and tells me much – They once did beat us for what we didn’t do.]

Charles Manson, visiting on January 21, 2017, CSP, Corcoran, CA.

“The media aren’t telling the truth or reporting the truth, only what they want to happen. Don’t believe anything they have to say. 

They forget… They forgot that they lost the Vietnam War. They forgot that they lost the Korean War. 

They forgot everything they don’t want to remember. There’s no such thing as death. 

I’ve given everything to ATWA (Air Trees Water Animals)”

We’re all dead. Everybody’s dead man. They don’t know it, they don’t
realize it that we died 1,000 times before we were born.  There’s no
such thing as being born or dying it’s uhh, that’s a game that we’ve
invented for… you realize how infinite and timeless we are. There’s
only one. 

Get up in the morning and look at the sun, and think about
what the sun is lighting with the day. There’s one day in the sun. All
the trees and all the leaves that, like a 2,000 year old tree and all
the leaves that it gives the energy to grow that tree and all life
that is life comes from the sun.  There’s not a mosquito or an
elephant that didn’t come from the sun - all germs, all molecules,
everything, the water, the air, everything come from the sun, and when
you see where the sun is looking from and how when it comes up how it
lights all those trees and all those mountains and all those rivers
and you see how great that light is, light that universe and the other
side of the sun is lighting billions and billions of years of planets
and stars that just don’t have no end. You see how vast that is? 

And when you let that into your eye’s, all that energy that’s growing and
doing all those things goes right inside of you, you see it,  and
you’ve got that eternity inside of you. The sun will talk to you, it
will give you all the secrets, it’ll tell you everything, and what the
final message is, the bottom line is, you ready?  YOU are the sun
mother, that’s your little girl. That’s why they laid her on the altar
and cut her heart out - before the cross got here, the sun was god.
You are the sun when you can catch up with it and understand it and
look at it and become it.

How is Charlie doing? He is doing as well as you.

Why can't you call him? Why can't you call and ask Charlie how he is doing? Why can't you ask the doctor how Manson is doing?

Why can't you interview Charlie right now?

Well, I know how he is doing. He is as well as the air, he is as sick as the water. Your water. Your air.

He is doing as well as the Tiger, as well as the Elephant and the White Rhino.

Why don't you call Africa and ask how you are doing?

Manson is as well as the California Redwood Tree.

How well are you? How capable are you? How capable are we? Can we save ourselves?

Thanks for checking in on the Soul. 

Thanks for checking in on your Soul.

Thanks for checking in on our last chance to survive.

The sun burns in my mind, the moon turns in my soul.                                                                                                

The black night of no moon night is in myme.

I give my me to the one of my dark minds night of Gods center of everything,                                                               

that meets in my nothing of forever.

The soldier's already dead and in my grave.

I give my death to the Life 4 ever and ever in the heart of all Air Trees Water Animals.

The only thing I miss is my friends.  And it’s almost impossible to have any friends, at this level.  Jealousy is a great power.  Jealousy and fear.  

I wrote this:  Your fear goes to your worst, and asks for help to destroy your fear.  But in truth, your fear is your best friend.  It protects you, it protects everyone you love.

Charles Manson

Bobby Raime also called Wormmie, hillbilly, sold worms [for] 5 cents a can until the TVA [Tennessee Valley Authority] came to Kentucky, building dams on the rivers for electricity. 

And Wormmie said, “The dam’s killing the river & the fish are dying”, and the big money told him “shut up”, and he hung himself in the crazy-house after a long time trying to save the river.

That passed off into the minds of the World War One & before that, & helped start the CCC [Civillian Conservation Corps], until World War II overrode it and left it forgotten. 

I was so young I got it in my head but I didn’t know it or understand it until a lot of other ways brought it into ATWA ways. I ran it to the kids at the ranch & some seen their life in it – 

People are not as smart as they lead you to think –  I seen a tree monkey trick a man out of his gold watch & make fun of him for being so stupid.  Man is not ½ as smart as he thinks – If you had never seen water & someone tried to tell you what water is, it would be almost impossible.  Some things you have no contact with, never seen or been around or with, just wouldn’t be in your world mind – 

[Being] in & out of prison shows a new world each time; it’s like you see how the young people never seen things that [have] been used up and gone.  The same in thought – ways of mind used up and gone – 

ATWA is my life is ALL LIFE

To the people who find their own judgment in me because they need it to hold on to; and when I'm gone they try to go to church.

You will find fault because that's all you can deal with, because you are the fault you're looking for. You're not looking for a winner because inside the me that lives in you, you feel you can't win because you were born to lose, and your life is a loser. 

You can't give up the person the Dead taught you, and come down to your own me that is in reals real. Up 50% and down 50% = 100 myme.

There is only ONE Sun God in All as Everything, you, me.

"Our world is built on water and air. Our foundation is on the water, the air, the trees and the animals. Ecology, ecology, ecology is God, for without it we are dead forever."

"I tell you all, you must look to ATWA. There is no other way. It must be one world now. One world now, everywhere, the planet must be one. And all the conflict of everyone trying to outdo each other, it's what's destroying it.

So it's all about the trees soldier. It's all about the trees soldier. If we don't have the green, we don't have no life on the planet Earth. So the war is toward the Holy, the Righteous and the real of what is destroying life on the planet Earth. 

You destroy my life on the planet Earth, I am making moves in that direction with chemistry and biology from Greenland, north side of everything coming and going towards intelligent life-forms that want to survive.

ATWA: All The Way Alive, all the way of life, and that's all there is. If we don't have air, the rest of it don't matter."

"All living life-forms who are intelligent, use your brains. All living life-forms who want to survive on Earth, use your minds. All authority that is authority, that is righteous in truth in the wisdom of all that is God, and God being great, as God is in all living life-forms, live NOW.

All The Way Alive. In this moment we all find serenity and bliss, and righteousness and truth. We accept life completely as forever. There is no beginning or end to it. We just are, man."

There can be no more than you.  You are your next breath of Air.  The sun has been doing it all far and more than concepts, beyond all, I - me - you, me, we, them, they, and it’s all in “mymes”, hallways of always and all ways.  I wrote all this to show you how and why I don’t write much, because I’m no more than I forgot that and can say and think JUST ME [swastika symbol] God Sun Soldier grave forever and forever me in as much as I can be a my me.  Right now I miss my horses.  People have left me to die alone as it is always in life just me.  Soldiers have already gave got and world all.  All me’s dead are all all and all me real life forever [swastika symbol] I die with them forever in the hallways of Always in the REAL of Everything.  The words only open up more questions and answers and troubles and troubles.  I am ALL TO ME that I am. 

Someone said “Are you J.C.?”  I said “I am nothing.”  He said “Thanks, I didn’t want to kick your ass.”  I said “Why?”  He said, “I know you’re not Christ, because I am.”  I said “Who told you?” He said his wife told him Manson was not Christ, Manson is anti-christ.  I said “I am everyone; I am life, that’s me.”  I’m a my life, a myme, and that’s everyone.  I am everyone and everyone is myme – God is me in everyone, everyone is God, everything is God.  The people who are trying to get away from God are trying to live a PHONY.

P.S.

PHONY is real phony and has troubles – the Real God is moving on Earth – it’s just the mind and time.  And why I don’t write?  It’s got to come from inside of you – you’re your own myme.  You’re God and when you know it you will do what you’ve got to do.  I’ve been in this war since 11-11-34 and my soul and blood was it before me.  I have not given up.  In 1950 I went in. 

To write opens up a line I got to explain and I don’t need that.  It just makes up more troubles.  Lots of heads think they can lock me up in the name of law and order.  And take my money, steal my name, take my children, burn me up and to be real and true no one’s gonna help me.  Everyone’s been feeding on me.  They use the little children, take my visits, control the mail, media.  They’ve been doing it so long to the media, [it’s] warped and less trusted.  Trust, faith, religion’s way of life is crime, and the 2 big pirates, George Washington took from English George king for English.  And the cross executions of Cesar and no war was ever won, nor did it stop.

It can’t start because people won’t even let the flies live.  God made nothing to die, he made life to live.  It’s the people who destroy it.  Give it to the bugs and realize bugs are not bad or good.  They are just for what God made them for, life, all living things, or whoever you want to call them.

FIRE STAR

All I had was set on fire.  I set my Black 5 Star on the all that was set on fire.  'Set on fire by the lies and the bad mouth the press and media put on me.  MyMe and yours truly Charles Milles Manson was set on fire.

Also I am my movement A.T.W.A. - my AIR on Earth - my TREES and green, AIR-giving life-forms - WATER is a must in Life, and the ZOO animals, and maybe there will be some left over after you people destroy yourselves.

After the people who locked me up and blamed me for their sins from the last time I got out in 1967 USA prisons.  Everyone that set this one on C.M. Manson back to state prison, are all dead and I've been held hostage.  I've never been to the prison lines - just lockups - holding hostage they make $.

July 22, 2015    Flag of the DeadRiders

Flag of the dead riders - all the soldiers of the world who died for God & life.

Soldiers of man sun - Death riders’ Flag of the dead has got nothing to do with race - The Dead soldier has got no mind’s eye in that kind of hate.  The fear projected on the flag shows who’s the real fear and hate - that kind of old generations show the young clear whose troubles that’s projecting the real of that hate to make programs of fear control - That’s what’s making fear control.

You can’t program a dead soldier; they’ve got no fear and can’t die.

Mansun Soldiers Emperor of the dead ride on & on.  Fear Controls and rules with money & sex - The Emperor of Death is the mass wars of the past.  Millions of Death soldiers in the Emperor of the ONE WORLD ATWA have a flag now. Thank you, fear controllers.  ATWAR gladly accepts what’s rejected and not wanted.

People who know, know the game’s played by fear pushers.  Dead Riders & ATWAR has a fear of no Air - no Water.  ‘Coming into the real, when it breaks into the real, it will have its own lightning and thunder.

People of color ‘been playing color – Air has got no color.  Water & sky blue real, read this with your soul forever, Red White & Blue, Green & colors of ALL the flags of the world in ALL HONOR.

There was no honor in disrespecting the Dead Emperor’s flag - You have disrespected the dead with your racist games of fear play and it is on the way back.

That’s why you did - Divide & Conquer.  That’s how you destroyed the USA.

It takes a long time to realize the NORTH SOUTH WAR was fought over money- King Cotton & control over the stock, land, & world - USA was a baby of 200 or 300 years old - a baby - other countries were 1500 to 5000 years old. USA is still a Red White & Blue child.

The North & South wars have been reflecting around the world – no war has ever ended – I command all the wars as my Dead Riders forever.

Emperor of Death

Nowhere is everywhere.  Anywhere is everywhere.  Everywhere there is right here, right here is all the here in everywhere.  That’s one air everywhere.  

What you heard is the sound of my word.  My mouth is the mouth of the lion in the English words, and the feet of the USSR bear is the feet of the bear in the emperor of everywhere. 

If I am here and you are there, everywhere is in my here.  And my here, there, in the mouth of the lion and the feet of the bear, in the empty submarine of the balance of the air.  The air is everywhere, ATWA, all the way alive, ATWA.  

Without the air, there’s no one anywhere, everywhere.  My-me here, there, the mouth of the lion, and the heart of the star in the bear, everywhere.

There’s only one.  You’re not a man, you’re not a woman, you’re a My-me.  My-me, there’s only one. We are married in Eternity, in the Truth, as the Emperor and the Empress of Love.  

We command peace on Earth for everyone. And love for all living life forms, as my-me.  We’re all my-me, to me, inside of all the yous.  Starting with the lowest among us, starting with the lowest, the last, little creature with no arms, with no legs.

June 29, 2015    Charles Manson - Emperor

We have a lot of friends that are for us being together.  Well, that’s already there in my mind.  In other words, there’s no way I can not be together with someone I love.  If I love someone, if it’s real, it’s eternal.  There’s no divorce.  The church, the original one church of the Christian before Martin Luther divided the church, there was no divorce.  In fact I still think they don’t.  

So I think, if the government can do something, I can do the same thing.  I mean, the Will of God is if – I smack you, you can smack me back if you choose to do that. Because anything I can do, you can do just as well.  Or anybody in fact.  They teach that in the boxing ring when I was in Father Gibalt’s School for Boys.  That it was said that the ruling, and rules, and will of God to do that – about turn the other cheek – I asked the priest, “how come you can hit me, when Christ said turn the other cheek?”.  And he explained that to me, the way it works.  

And it’s the same thing with vote, we’re voting people into office.  They voted the guy that’s in the president’s office.  They voted him president in my space.  They gave him a white suit, and voted him in as a white man.  There was no such thing as any other man other than a white man, because the word “man” came from the white man.  So there is no other man besides the white man – in the white man English words.  But now, en Espanol, it’s “hombre”.  Hombre is Spanish.  There’s no “Mexican” in Spanish.  Mexican in Spanish is considered pocho.  If you’re Spanish, and you have a Spanish language, and you’re using the Spanish words, you’re not a Spaniard.  A Spaniard is a full blood Spaniard.  And his name is Hombre, that’s the word for Man.  As a German would have his word for Man. And each country, each race of humanity has their own word for their own perspection, perception.  

So the United States coming along, making up rules for two or three hundred years, has got nothing to do with 50,000, a hundred million years.  In other words, there’s an African, there’s a black thing over there called an African, and whatever he calls himself is what he is.  Ain’t no white man has no right to go over there and call him a white man.  You know, that’s not the way it goes.  

So the truth about the situation is, everybody’s lying to themselves.  You got a slave in office, but yet he’s not really an Andrew Jackson or on a plantation.  In other words, they just got this thing going, well, put it on the internet that I am running for the white Emperor of the world, and that you’re the Queen – you’re the Empress.  That we’re being married in the world with the vote - that we need all the white people to vote for us, and make the Golden Emperor of the world.  You got the gold ring?  That’s our symbol, the gold serpent of the world, that you are the Empress and I am the Emperor, and we need all the white people’s votes for us to establish white people on Earth.  

Now if other people, races, or other people wish to vote for us, that vote counts for a vote too.  But we’re not commanding them to submit to us as being the white Emperor and the white Empress.  In other words, we’re not asking them to vote for white people.  We’re telling them, in the spiritual world, vote for us as one white people.  All white people will come up underneath the Gold Empress.  The other people have their own Emperors.  Japan has an Emperor, China has an Emperor.  If they vote for us then we’ll be their Emperor too.  Does that make sense?  

In other words, we’re doing the same thing that the United States is doing, only we’re doing it with the United States of the World.  We are the United States of the World, we are the World United States.  All the states are in our world of the Golden Emperor.  That we have sovereignty in the power of the planet, for ATWA.  That there’s one God, and that’s ATWA.  If we don’t have air, we’re not there.

June 9, 2015    Court of the Stones

Charles Older Milles Manson’s Star laser is anything that flies:  That is his Army Air Power and Will of God on Earth.  Only Older rolls up in forever because Older is forever.  Ronnie Reagan set that in a Court from my horse – my horse’s love, honor, and holds in my grave 17 heads of power and honor of Samurai in the will of life, held by the Flying Tiger Star – (4-Star) (5-Star) (6-Star) (7-Star) (8-Star).  Held in five 5 pointed stars, in General of ATWA World-Wide – held in all life forms as the will of love and life – The balance of all life is forever in the will of life as it’s center for ATWA – All The Way Alive is forever even in what’s called death. 

I Charles hold this court in the dead of forever, forever it is 5 war-gods of balance. 

If someone is good to you, you will return the will of love to love – if they do you a Bad, you will love that and suffer it for god – if they do Bad to you again, you can give them the Bad they gave you back –

If you see someone putting ATWA, your life, bad and you ask them one time to stop and they don’t, your love for ATWA can put an end to that. 

Like $omeone takes from you by using LAW of Phony, fake, and lie, you can put an end to that sham in this court with the DEATH of G. Hinman and Mr. Stunt-man Shea. 

Who keeps you from your life for ATWA is subject to its end and no karma will be created, because their life has already been paid for by this court of the oldest court in the world.

The USATWA of the World, Stones of the world.  Stones as shown to the world’s eyes who have brains and eyes to see.

If someone takes a part of your life and it’s not in the will of this court’s balance, the will of God as all will, will take farms up in all farms in all ways in and out of the hallways of always in BROTHER GUN = Everyone gets the Rights their Court Gave, Gives, and keeps on in the will of Honor, DEATH, and LIFE is just a bridge of thought’s mind’s love and will of this Court of the Stones.  Honor is all the hallways of always.  Good or bad is the is of all is’s.

AP: How do people become free?
CM: BE. Go away and keep going until never get here. There is no un-free, no “not free” in freedom.
AP: Do you believe in other dimensions?
CM: I don’t not believe. “Dimensions” is one God. There is no other, only zero. Nothing is all.

February 16, 2015    Message from Charles Manson

God is a soldier fighting for his life on Earth – ATWA.  What takes life, gets looked at.

God’s war started when the need started (started with the need).

A wake-up to one’s own (its own) life on Earth.  One Earth, one life, one God, “Itself”.  ALL the people have already died, and have been gone before the bodies, and now the computers took over the grave game.

God’s Soldier is a Do or Die animal from the zoo-grave from the dead.

The brain-dead destroy the dead.  God’s Will will be the will, be true, given up to their own judgments.

They’re all gone, maybe – maybe no one’s there to say that.  Or it could be one lie.

Charles Manson

Letter, February 2015 

____________________________________________________

February 16, 2015    Charles Manson responds to a fan letter, and sends message to the public

It’s not my love of animals; it’s my waking up that, that’s my life (ATWA) on Earth that the people are destroying.  That’s everyone but me and my-me’s willto live the life, God’s soldiers in graves for fighting for god and country – world – love.  The brain-dead people playing in movies and on T.V. news, Ch. 4, D.O.D. – Do or Die – actors, phonies. 

It is LOVE but my love is not compared to nothing.

Questions?  Interviews?  They distort them, turn my life into books and magazines.  They are masters of money, fear, wars, and mind moving controls.  Don’t you realize that?  I’m much less than a fool.  My story, the way you see it, is a row of cover-ups, lies, and movies being made and NY doing T.V.s and big Guns and Roses, Marilyn Manson, rock stars, wars, and little people trying to get big.  They don’t even like to hear my name.

Truth = people are destroying life on Earth.  Too much water waste – too many people, too many cars.  All God’s soldiers are ordered to do away with all the people and let life get back to natural.  If it’s not natural, get off my life on Earth.

February 15, 2015    Interview with Charlie's Grandson, Jason Freeman

Check out this recently published interview with Jason Freeman.

"I am proud that I made the decision to get to know and become closer to my grandfather within the last three years.  I was always told not to open the door to my past but as I look back at my Journey - I do not regret my decision.  I did not choose to be the son or grandson of either Manson but their blood runs through my veins.

I do not fully buy into the image that the Media has given Charlie or the image surrounding the "cult members".  Talking to him has opened my eyes spiritually.  Most people would not think of him as a man of faith or wisdom."

February 5, 2015    Announcement Concerning the Truth of Charles Manson's Wedding Plans

Charlie and Star were not able to complete their wedding ceremony due to an unexpected interruption in logistics.  The marriage license, filed on November 7th 2014, was active for 90 days.  They plan on renewing the license, and things will move forward in the coming months.

In regards to the sensationalism and triviality expressed by the corporate media, we are reposting this 2013 statement by Charlie:

“Your perspectives are off-base.  This marriage is far less important than Air Trees Water, and Animals.  We're running out of water.  We're constantly polluting the air that we breathe.  We're destroying the very thing our life is dependent upon (all life is one life). 

The marriage of true minds - like Shakespeare said.  We're marrying in ATWA.  The Air and the Water is our spirit, the Trees and the Animals are our flesh and blood.”    - Charles Manson, November 24, 2013

October 22, 2014    Important new book from author George Stimson

"GOODBYE HELTER SKELTER", available now (and also on Amazon.com), is written in an easy-to-read style and is highly informative and convincing. George Stimson gives the reader an inside view of life within the "Manson Family" during the late '60s, and a carefully sourced and well-documented examination of the murders and trials that have so fascinated the public for the past 45 years.
Mr. Stimson includes new quotes and insights from Lynette Fromme and Sandra Good, and his analysis and rebuttal of District Attorney Vincent Bugliosi's tactics and theories is fresh and  compelling.

Excerpt:
The same story that's been told since the arrests of Manson and his co-defendants continues to be told today.
That basic tale is unchanged: An ex-con named Charles Manson took a group of disaffected young middle-class people and twisted their values, minds, and lives in order to fulfill his own homicidal needs. [...]
But what if that wasn't what happened?  What if the popular perception of Charles Manson and his "Family" is incorrect?  What if Charles Manson did not "mastermind" the Tate-LaBianca murders in order to achieve Helter Skelter?
The premise of this book is that the motive that Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney Vincent Bugliosi presented at the trial (and ever since in his best-selling book and in countless media appearances) - Helter Skelter - is a fantasy.  And a further premise of this book is that it is possible that Charles Manson had - and has - no legal culpability for the Tate-LaBianca murders (or, for that matter, for any other murders for which he was convicted).
And that is the reason to write this book: because it is new.[...]
This book is different.  In this book you will find new material, new information, and - most importantly - new thinking.

In light of the corporate media's gory celebration of the Tate-LaBianca murders "45th anniversary", we are posting Charles Manson's entire message, which he gave to Star for her CNN interview.  (See CNN article here)

Whoever you are, what you know is what you are.  Righteous.  What you know is what you are.

You know I didn't break the law.  You know you’re holding me hostage.  You know I’m a political prisoner.  

You’re all a bunch of liars.  You’re all lying.  

 You’re lying for your jobs and your positions.  Trying to protect that phony thing you call ‘you’.

Irving Kanarek was assigned as Charles Manson's attorney during the "Tate-LaBianca trial", after Manson's 6th Amendment Right of self-representation was violated.  In a recent article by TheGuardian.com, Kanarek, now 94, claims that Manson was legally innocent, and actually innocent.  He gives his take on Manson, the trial, and the debilitating media frenzy surrounding it all.  

“I would defend a client who I knew was guilty of horrific crimes. They have to be proved guilty. I've had cases where people were guilty as hell but they couldn't prove it. And if they can't prove it, he's not guilty. In that case, the person walks free. That's American justice.

I got a reversal of Jimmy Lee's death sentence, and he had been accused of killing a police officer. That made me the victim of police non-objectivity. They pulled me over, gave me tickets undeservedly.

It wasn't a difficult decision to take the Manson case. My purpose was to fight legally admissible evidence, and the amount of that was scant. His guilt was based on a few hearsay words, inadmissible in court, that he supposedly told this guy to do a number on the Tate residence.  No question he was legally innocent.  And, more than that, he was actually innocent. There was no evidence connecting him to those murders.

The newspapers, the magazines, the motion pictures got people all excited – Manson as the embodiment of human evil. Charlie wasn't a monster. When you look at the legally admissible evidence, you come to a very different conclusion. Just looking at him from objective considerations, he's a personable person.”

“I've thought a lot about the case in terms of the legalities. I haven't dwelt much on the human tragedy of it. There's a lot of myth, for example that the baby was taken out of Tate's body. Not so. The wounds were not in the abdomen. The wounds were primarily in the breast area.

I didn't spend much time [thinking about Tate and the other victims], because they were victims of disputes that Charlie had nothing to do with. I think his direct involvement has been woefully extrapolated.

By the time I visited the house, the bodies were gone. The scene was what I'd call mechanical. Nothing about it was gruesome, per se. They'd marked where they were in chalk. So it isn't as overwhelming as some people may feel. None of it stayed with me. The tools of the courtroom make such scenes less than human. I didn't think about it emotionally. The victims are part of the case, but are not that tangible. I lost sleep on other cases, but not on this one.

People ask me, have I ever felt in the presence of evil, I don't know how to respond to that. I don't dream or even think much about Charlie.

I have regrets about every case where someone is killed or injured. Murder is unappetising. But I've never defended anyone who's been accused of horrible criminal acts on children.”

- Irving Kanarek

It has come to our attention that a parody/fake article announcing the release of Charles Manson has been published on the internet.  Some people have been inquiring if the article is true.  Although the article is fake, it does reference true events and facts concerning the CA Dept. of Corrections (including “elderly parole”), and it brings up some points we’d like to address.

-- Manson will be 80 years old this year (2014).

-- He has been in prison for 45 years.  In so-called civilized/advanced countries, this is unheard of.  (In parts of Europe, the maximum sentence for murder is 26 years)

-- CM has endured decades of torture, through long-term solitary confinement, and abuse by forced debilitating psychotropic “medication”.  Now he must contend with substandard medical care, poor nutrition, unhealthy conditions of confinement, and continued discriminatory treatment at the hands of rogue staff members.  In addition, he is denied his 1stAmendment rights of access to the public media, and is held against his will in a protective housing unit instead of general population.

-- Manson has been convicted of masterminding 9 murders; convicted of first degree murder only through conspiracy laws.  It has never been claimed by a court that Manson himself killed anyone.

-- In California and elsewhere, people who have actually committed murder are being released regularly (“…data from 2012, shows that of 784 California inmates on parole after being sentenced to a life term for murder, only 5 percent returned to prison last year for parole violations.”)

-- Manson is considered by the CDCR to be a “low risk” inmate, meaning that the inmate is highly unlikely to be a risk if released.  According to the CDCR, low risk category is determined by age, amount of time incarcerated, and behavior while incarcerated.

-- The only evidence used to convict Manson was purely circumstantial; presented by bribed witnesses, threatened witnesses, fabricated testimonies, and through suppression of exculpatory evidence.

-- New developments in the “Manson cases”, previously overlooked or suppressed evidence, as well as updated witness statements, have constantly been ignored by the media and the courts.

-- Manson was unduly denied his 6thamendment right of self-representation.

-- Manson was never allowed a defense portion of the trial, after 8 months of prosecution, slander, and a pervasive world-wide media frenzy (which began well before the trial itself).

-- The longer you hold Manson down under your ignorance, jealousy, lies, and cover-ups – the more you will have to pay.

"... look at the natural of your life on earth. You have a life on earth. You were born into this life. You came into this life from nothing. And you became everything that is bad and good. You became the artificial. You became the problem. You became the very air that you breathe. Without the air that you breathe, there is nothing else. That's not complicated. It's only complicated if someone wants to complicate it by not listening, not looking at the problem."

Charlie:  I always did wonder why they crucified that dude, and I seen them execute people ever since then, and it looks like it’s the same damn thing.  That they haven’t stopped crucifying him, that they crucify him every day.  Jealousy does it, incompetence and fear, lies and confusion… People are cold. 

Star:  Well, they say he was, that Jesus was going against – teaching against the society at the time, or something like that… how they always do. 

Charlie:  Yea, pretty much.

On Saturday February 22, Manson was moved to the SHU (Security Housing Unit, a.k.a. the hole) pending an initial disciplinary hearing which is scheduled for this Wednesday March 5th.  There are rumors concerning the situation, but no solid facts will be known until the administrative process has run it's course.

Being in the SHU means solitary confinement, no access to personal property, no telephone access, and visits are limited to behind glass for one hour.  You can still write to Manson at his normal address.

January 27, 2014    Interview with Croatia

Charles Manson responds to questions submitted by a Croatian journalist; January 2013 

How is it to be a celebrity prisoner?  How is it being famous in prison?

If there’s 20,000 men in the prison, there’s only 20,000 men that are going to know you.  So being famous doesn’t mean anything.

You could be the handball champion and be the most famous guy in prison.  Or you could work in the kitchen passing out the bread and everybody gets bread from your hands.  So in prison being famous doesn’t mean anything.  Everybody knows you anyway.  Just about everybody knows everybody.  All the cops know you -  they have your picture on the post.  Everybody sees you every day.  You live right there shoulder to shoulder with everyone.  You walk there with everyone on the yard, with everybody, you know? You go to church with everybody. Everybody’s right there.  So being famous in prison doesn’t mean anything.

Yea, you might be the boxing champion, and everybody in prison knows you because you box, or everybody knows you in prison because you sing on the Christmas show, or you play music in the band, maybe you work in the band or something, you know?  So being well-known doesn’t mean anything.

Through all the years within the prison routine, you’ve had the chance to do different things to pass the time; make small dolls, paint.  What kinds of paintings do you do? What do your paintings represent? What colors do you use?

I’m not much of an artist; I have to work with what I have. Whatever that is changes.  I may have a little “kiddie” set of paints, and that all might change and I may get some oils.  And then they may decide you can’t paint with oils and give you pastels. You know they just take away whatever…. the colors are still in motion, Grey and Red and Blues and Greens are in play now, with a little Yellow, you dig?

Is your correspondence censored, Mr. Manson?

Yea, I’m pretty sure that it is, yes.

Do you reply to your letters?

No – some of them.  ‘Depends on the time that I have.

What kind of people write to you?

A cross-section of the public.  The media mind, the social mind, the political mind, the criminal mind, people in prison, people out of prison.

How much of an opportunity do you have to be informed about what’s happening on the outside – do you follow the news, the stuff that’s going on in the world?

Well, see what that question is, is like you’re asking a question from what you think is the outside.  There’s a line, which side is out and which side is in?  What you think is outside is what you think is outside – that’s not necessarily outside.  

What do you think about American politics, and about having a black president?

The president is not black, he’s mixed blood. Black is the African’s black.

And what about American politics, the judicial system in America?  You said Obama is foolish and a slave of Wall street. Does it mean, maybe that money is over-valued?

A long time ago, there was a United States, created by the Constitution, George Washington, and his Army, the Sons of Liberty.  That was destroyed by Abraham Lincoln.  It was divided and conquered, because Europe didn’t want to accept a world economy in a round world. 

When the world was discovered to be round, the rebirth and new order of the planet began.  The new order of the Earth was George Washington, ‘was a successful revolution. Lenin and Marx followed him, and then Mao followed that.  The whole world was in a revolution, as it is today.  

The revolution that is going is the proper order of life in a round world – in a round economy as opposed to the flat land, flat world of the lowlands.  The irony of the whole situation is, the Catholic Church didn’t accept the Protestant rebirth of the new world order in George Washington.

Can you help me understand your power – your notoriety….  your charisma?… from the beginning, your connection with rock music linked you with a pop culture, and the U.S. judicial system put you in prison for something that you didn’t do.    

Rock music came out of the prisons.  The prisons are the birthplace of much creative life that’s played off into the over-world and they call it charisma whenever it surfaces in the media, and the world sees convicts, outlaws, rebels – they see a reflection of the people that founded this establishment.  Like George Washington had charisma, or Adolf Hitler had charisma, or Joseph Stalin.  A lot of revolutionaries of the past were, in their day, considered outlaws.  The United States Navy was considered a pirate by the English Navy.  The English considered the United States government to be outlaws, rebels, rejects – until it was founded and became the United States.  

Hitler had charisma too, and a charismatic person could make anybody do anything they wanted…  

That’s not a criterion, you don’t know that.  How can you decide that?  

…that Hitler, by chance, succeeded to enter an Academy of painting, (which he desperately wanted), will probably be written in the history of the 20thcentury as another story.  That you probably…

How do you know that?  How can you say that Hitler was in your mind to want what you think? You don’t know what that man was thinking.  You don’t know what his circumstances were. 

The truth is that men are dealing with situations beyond your concepts – and then you judge what they have to do, like Joseph Stalin. He saved Russia.  He fought and did what was supposed to be done. Then when he died, they made him into a tyrant.  He was no more a tyrant than he had to deal with what he had to deal with. 

Every person has situations that call for extreme. And that extreme doesn’t necessarily mean that’s what they wanted.  That’s what they had to do.  We’re gonna judge somebody else’s actions with low-life intelligent life-forms, who don’t understand the mass of people have always been wrong.  It’s the few that’s saved you, and kept you from your own destruction.  

There are rumors that Charles Manson was involved with the MK Ultra programs and also  Phoenix programs through prisons.

The what programs?  I don’t even know what that is.

A reference to the military involvement with the church of Satan?

Satan don’t have a church.  He is the church.  There is nobody but Satan- in Satan.

Why exactly the Tate-LaBianca murders? Why not other people?   

There was other people, you just didn’t see it. You didn’t see but what they showed you. They only showed you what they wanted to control you with.  You’re under control also.

Why did it happen?

It happened for a lot of reasons – the atmosphere is dying, they’re cutting down all the trees, foreign corporations have taken over the government.  There are whole countries that are moving in the United States.  The United States is so big, it’s unbelievable.  You see Germany and Japan were little teeny countries. The United States has 52 countries, 58 countries.  You could put Japan in California four or five times, you could put Germany in Indiana ten times, twelve times across the borders of Kentucky and Ohio.  That’s vast areas of humanity that’s so vast, you could put Europe in the United States.

If you were to get out, what would you do?

I’m already out, and I’m doing everything I can to save my life – my Air, my Water, my Trees, and my Life.  

The world has changed.  How would you handle it if you were to get out of prison?

I would turn all the people into animals.

“No sense makes sense”, how is that a reflection of your life?

The veils of stupid ignorance can’t understand a timeless abyss of human…  The Vikings had boats that you row with oars.  Those row boats were rowed across the ocean into the Americas – long before the windjammers and the sailboats were even invented.  There were Vikings that were in America.  America was here five, six hundred, maybe a thousand, two thousand years before anybody else got here.  When the sailboats came, there was Vikings, they called them Indians.  They weren’t Indians – Indians are from India. There’s no Indians in America, that’s a mistake that some Italian made in Rome, because nothing was invented or found or discovered unless the Pope gave permission.  People have forgot, man, that there’s a million years here. Not just twenty thousand years because the Pope said so.  

There is an impression that you have a high opinion of yourself – what is the other side of the coin?

There’s no self.  Self is a game your mother plays.

Your childhood ?

‘Didn’t have one. 

Picasso said  “It takes a lot of time for someone to become young”.

Yea certainly.  It’s wasted on babies.  

What about your children?

They’re all my children.

What about love, woman, womanizing?

I love earth, is a woman.

The question arises, who was in fact the person you really loved?

Me.  It’s inside of me that I love.  How else could I love anyone else unless it’s inside of me?  

Ok, you don’t regret anything.  But from today’s point of view, with this experience, if you could, would you change something?

Change everything.  Every day I change everything

Almost all of those who were around you, from your childhood until later, have become or are in prison.  

Persecution goes with the change.  Persecution goes with the territory of change.  Change is the most important thing that you have. You’re not changing  fast enough.  

Woodstock, flower children, Vietnam, sex drugs and rock n’ roll.  What is your philosophy on the  apocalypse?  

It’s happening now, every day.  

It was real Helter Skelter.

It’s been going on.

Who knows what the Beatles were thinking for using their song for another scenery?

That’s the District Attorney’s idea about the Beatles. That wasn’t my idea about the Beatles. The Beatles were a rock ‘n roll band, that’s all that was.  

Life is perhaps a foolish game.  Now what do you think?  Do you feel more lonely now, or then, when you were the mental leader and home of younger and lost people?

I don’t have no lonely, and I don’t know no lost people. 

You said, “give me my rights” –  to understand you better, what kind of rights do you want and how?

George Washington and the Sons of Liberty fought a revolution for everyone to be exactly what the constitution says; Equality for everyone.  Everyone has the right to livetheir lives.  No one man has the right to take away from any other man, unless that man be God.  

Who do you blame – bureaucracy, American government, system of law, or Charles Manson?

I don’t blame.  That’s a stupid word, man.  I don’t blame.  There’s nobody to blame but one’s own ideas and concepts.

What do you think about your life now?

It’s all life now.

December 10, 2013    Concerning Charles Manson: Letter from a member of the US Armed Forces

As I have grown older, I have come to understand the media for what it really is…sensationalistic journalism designed to titillate it's viewers.  A prime example is the Geraldo Rivera special "Murder: Live from Death Row" that aired on national television in 1988.  It is available on YouTube, so I urge you to watch it.  Then, compare the actual television program, specifically Geraldo interviewing Charles Manson, to his entire and unedited interview of Manson, which is also available on YouTube.  You will see what I mean.  Geraldo cuts and splices the interview so that Manson's words are taken out of context and used against him. 

Let me be clear about something….Heis a criminal and has done some very bad things in his life.  BUT being a petty criminal, and mastermind of the most heinous crime in U.S. history, are two very different things.  I won't try to explain what I mean by that here, but I suggest doing your own research.  The cards were completely stacked against him from birth, yet he has persevered.  He is very unusual and definitely marches to the beat of a different drum.  But I can assure you he is not the "Most Dangerous Man Alive" or the devil, re-incarnated.  

I know this because I have gotten to know him on a very personal level over the last four years.  As a service member stationed in Afghanistan in 2009, I began writing to him because I wanted to see for myself what he was "really" like... not the typical news coverage designed to scare old ladies and increase network ratings.  Through phone calls and letters, I have learned that he is nothing like what we have been led to believe over the last forty-four years.  

Besides what you THINK you might know about him, I can also tell you that he has a huge admiration and respect for the military.  He befriended me and gave many thanks for what I do to serve our country.  He cares about what is happening to the country and to the world.  He has a positive message, if you will just listen.  Being raised in institutions, he has spent most of his life in solitary confinement.  That being said, his perception of reality is completely different from ours.  You need to understand that from the onset.  He doesn't speak in a language or dialect that we are used to hearing.  He speaks almost entirely with figurative language to illustrate his points and most of us aren't used to that.  He is wise beyond his years and also very intelligent.  Open your ears and open your mind and you will be surprised at what you will hear. 

"P"

If you could get everybody that’s watching football, basketball, and baseball, to accept the truth in words, and you tell all those people a simple message – that if you don’t start planting and putting back into the earth everything that you’ve taken from it, you’re all going to die and perish in a cruel terrible way, forever. It’s not complicated. 

The truth is that you’re not going to get anything unless you pay for it.  You’re getting away with the bounty of all those sacrifices that your army and your soldiers made for you.  The only ones that are worth anything is the soldiers, because they serve their God, and they give their lives for that.  

You have a chance to be reborn.  That means start over- all over.  If you don’t start it all over, you’re gonna have nothing left.  And you don’t have no time, you’ve wasted it all.

Your perspectives are off-base.  This marriage is far less important than Air Trees Water, and Animals.  We're running out of water.  We're constantly polluting the air that we breathe.  We're destroying the very thing our life is dependent upon (all life is one life).  

The marriage of true minds - like Shakespeare said.  We're marrying in ATWA.  The air and the water is our spirit, the trees and the animals are our flesh and blood.

You’ve got to stop warring against air. Your sin is against yourself, ‘is your sin against air. Air is all you’ve got. If you’re making money to sell your air, you’re selling your own life. You’re buying and selling your own life to destruction. That system that you say that I’m not good, that I’m a danger to, I might be a danger to your stupidity and I’m a danger to your ignorance, but I’m not a danger to intelligent life forms. I’m not a danger to the people who want to exist on the planet. I’m not a danger to farmers, I’m not a danger to poor people, I’m not a danger to soldiers who don’t want to hurt nobody, who don’t wanna go to war, but who’s forced into war by the bureaucrats who want to destroy themselves.

Put that on [the website], say, we must be saying something, because all these people are so jealous that they can’t seem to keep their hate to themselves.  They wanna hate what they don’t understand.  If they can’t understand it, that’s not [our] fault.  Yea, that’s actually a witness foryou.  You know, we must be saying something [right] because we wouldn’t have all these people against us if we wasn’t.  They’re all jealous.  They’re ganging up on somebody, why are they ganging up on it?  Well, we’ve always been at the bottom, there ain’t nobody helped me.  

If you look at, the only thing that’s made me famous is the people that are against me.  The people that talk shit about me are the ones that made me into who I am.  If it wasn’t for that lying-ass district attorney, I would have never been “Charlie Manson”.  He made “the family”.  He made it with his bullshit.  He made it with all them filthy fuckin’ lies he told in the courtroom.  That’s the kind of people you’re dealing with.  They think to discredit you is gonna make them better.  They think they wanna build their dream on the destruction of your dream.  The only thing they got going is, to down somebody else – they have nothing going, they just wanna keep somebody else from making it.  They don’t wanna make it; they wanna stop somebody else from making it because they can’t make it.  They can’t make it unless they feed on somebody else.  Look at everything they’re doing. 

That’s what this person said to me when I mentioned a similar thing to them about what people were doing to me, and he said he can’t understand why people want to talk bad about me, “because of you there’s a song in my heart, because of you this romance had its start – because of you the sun will shine, the moon and stars will say you’re mine, forever…”  You know, they wanna be down on the very same person that they’re feeding on.  It don’t make no sense at all.

November 8, 2013    Memo From Manson

They're trying to get me to see a doctor.  It's a bunch of bullshit.  

They just come over from 'Frisco [saying] that the air's all dying and the water's getting so polluted they can't drink it.  So yeah, everything we said is coming true.  These fuckin' assholes don't wanna listen to the truth about anything, man.  They wanna force their bullshit over on somebody else.  Lying double-dealing fake phonies.  

You know, if it's not in the movies they can't understand it – isn't that weird?  You gotta make a movie about it before they can.  And then they cut the interviews off… so they could sing… worthless pieces of dog shit.  

Put it up on the wire:  They just can't seem to leave me alone.  They wanna play-act like I'm dead.   Haha, I've been doing that for 65 years.

November 8, 2013    Report

Unhealthy conditions of confinement:

Living conditions in the PHU aggravate the health problems of inmates.  The air is consistently polluted by concrete dust from the unpainted concrete block walls.  There are also pervasive chemical fumes from floor strippers, pesticides and toxic cleaners.  Dust and debris from the outside air is pumped in through dirty and neglected ventilation ducts.  

Despite numerous written requests and a doctor’s prescription, Manson is being denied clearance for an air purifier.  

Ignoring obvious nutritional deficiencies in the prison diet, doctors and medical staff routinely deny Manson’s requests for normal treatment options.  Conflicting information has been presented to Manson by medical staff, and “No” is their safe and standard answer for common sense solutions.  


Mailroom Fail:

Prison mailroom staff members are once again failing to process and deliver Manson’s mail in a fair and timely manner.  Incoming mail for Charlie has come up missing, and the mail that he does receive is being delivered in bunches of six to ten letters, followed by a lapse of several or more days with no mail at all.  

Dozens of envelopes are marked with yellow “refusal slips”, meaning the mail has been kept from Manson for “internal rules violations”.  There is no transparent over-sight of this punitive process.  Portions of Charlie’s outgoing mail are also being stolen or destroyed, and the entire mail stream is so slow that it often takes 30 days or more for mail going either way to be delivered.

Inmates in other units of the prison also report that their mail stream is marred by severe slowdowns and missing mail.

Charles Manson - The Order of ATWA - Air Trees Water Animals

New video on youtube features phone recording of the April 15 2013 transcript.

________________________________________________________

July 21, 2013

On the night of July 16th, Charlie was asleep when he fell off the bunk and hit his head above his right eye, resulting in two black eyes.  There have been several false rumors circulating that an inmate hit him, cops hit him, or that he had a seizure, etc.  Star visited with him this weekend, and she confirms that he is doing fine, despite the rather dramatic looking black eyes.  She also confirms that there was no foul play involved.  He was examined by medical staff the next morning and spent the day being monitored in the hospital. Charlie was cleared by his doctors to return to his unit and is showing no further symptoms of injury.  

Charlie says that the doctors treated him professionally - “The doctor, was number one, his name was Dr. Jin Yu.  He’s a Chinese doctor, he’s a true doctor, very good, efficient expert. I’d say he did a good job with the situation and handled it perfectly.  The other doctor, is a soldier doctor, Dr. Gill.  His word is his bond, he’s a good man.  His techniques were very professional and he’s a tremendous doctor.”

-- Update April 13, 2013 -- Charlie's visiting status has been restricted to one hour behind glass "until further notice".

-- Update, April 4, 2013 -- According to prison officials, Charles Manson's visiting status has been updated.  The temporary visiting suspension has been lifted.  More details soon.

March 31, 2013   

This weekend, prison officials have informed us that Mr. Manson's visiting privileges have been suspended “until further notice”.  According to staff at the visiting entrance, the suspension order was issued by the warden's office.  

An officer informed Star that the temporary suspension was due to a pending investigation.  At this time we do not have any solid indication as to how long it may continue.

 

March 27, 2013    "Charles Manson has no followers..."

Charles Manson has no followers, he will not allow it.  He has lots of friends and thousands of supporters, but there is no such thing as a Manson follower.  ATWA is the reason, ATWA is the love we reflect.  Hold your breath for three minutes, then tell me what you want most in life.  If we can’t redeem our Air, Trees, and Water, we don’t exist.

-       Gray Wolf, March 27, 2013

 

I’ve been Mansons’ friend for about 10 years now.  I am not a “follower”.  There are no followers.   That concept is a lie and a myth.  In addition to Charlie, I know some people who were with him in the ‘60s and ‘70s.  They weren’t allowed to testify for the defense during the trial, and their side of the story was covered up in court and by the media.  Back then, there were a few loyal friends and a bunch of other people hanging around, coming and going at all times.  They left when they wanted to, and came back when they wanted to.  They were not deprived and brainwashed with drugs.  Everyone did what they wanted to do.

-          Star, March 27, 2013

 

Life: What was the Manson Family?
Manson: The D.A. put the word “family” on it to make me a leader and bring me into the conspiracy. They’ve never really been my family or my followers. We were together in a dream, man.

March 25, 2013

Charles Manson's friend and regular visitor, Gray Wolf, was detained Sunday morning at 11:00 am, March 24, 2013, on the public side of the Level 4 visitation entrance, Corcoran State Prison, Corcoran, CA.  Preliminary charges by the prison against Gray Wolf are listed as possession of an “illegal communication device”, and two additional variations of the same offense. 

Manson’s close friend, Star, was sitting with Charlie at a table in the PHU visiting room at the time of Gray Wolf’s detainment.  Within minutes, visiting Sergeant Fritz entered the room and accosted Star at the table, demanding that she stand, put her hands behind her back, and submit to being handcuffed.  Star asked the Sergeant what was going on, but he refused to answer.  Star stood and complied with the Sergeants orders and was handcuffed.  A female officer, accompanying Sergeant Fritz, held Star by the arms as they escorted her from the room, through the crowded Level 4 public waiting area, and on to a prison shuttle bus. 

Meanwhile, Charles Manson was searched and then escorted to a holding cell.  His personal cell was searched by prison staff, and he was returned to his cell later in the afternoon.

Gray Wolf and Star were detained separately and held for questioning and search for approximately 5 hours by staff of the prisons’ Investigative Services Unit (ISU). 

Both Star and Gray Wolf were subjected to a personal security search (strip-search).  Both gave ISU staff permission to search their personal vehicles.  All searches were negative for contraband.

 

Star refused to answer questions by ISU staff, referring them to her ID for personal information.  Star was released at about 4:30 pm with no changes to her prison-authorized visiting status.

Gray Wolf was apprised of the charges against him, his “Miranda” rights were read to him, and he subsequently asked for counsel to be present.  ISU staff then declined to question him at that time.  Gray Wolf was transported from the prison by ISU staff.  He was booked and released on a $30,000 bond from the nearby county jail.  Gray Wolf’s first court appearance is currently set for late April, 2013.

November 9, 2012    Happy Birthday, Charlie !

Charles Mansons' 78th birthday is this Sunday, November 11th.  Charlie says he has known his birthday to be on this date for his entire life.  Many so-called sources of information about Manson state that he was born on November 12th.  It has been speculated that in the early '70s, certain documents were changed to falsely state the 12th because someone did not want his birth date to share the same day as Veterans Day - a U.S. holiday commemorating those who have served in the military.

October 26, 2012    California - Vote YES on Prop. 37 - The fight against Monsanto and GMOs

Disgusting and Disturbing News - Polls show that big corporations are tipping the opinions of "TV watchers" by spending 1 million dollars a day in anti-Prop. 37 ads.

On the California ballot this November, Prop. 37 would require all foods with Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) to be labeled accordingly.  The "Right to Know" campaign has been considerably ahead in the polls, until these "No on Prop. 37" ads started airing recently, as election time nears.

California - this is a big step in the fight against GMOs.  We are paving the way for the rest of the country.  Most other countries have already BANNED GMOs.

Spread the word to vote YES ON PROP. 37

Also, please consider donating to the campain so that they will have enough money to air their own ads to combat the opposition. See the link below for more information.

"... after enjoying a 26-point lead for the past six months, our side [Yes on Prop. 37] is now barely ahead in the polls."

"We still enjoy a lead among those who don’t watch TV, but unfortunately California TV watchers are turning against us."

"For 25 days Monsanto and their allies have filled the California airwaves with $1 million dollars a day in TV and radio ads, spewing lies about how mandatory labeling for genetically engineered food will mean higher costs for consumers, lawsuits clogging the courts, "confusing" labels and poor farmers and grocers facing "nightmares of paperwork"."

October 3, 2012    CA Gov. vetos restoring media access to CDCR inmates

http://blogs.sfweekly.com/thesnitch/2012/10/jerry_brown_prison_media_access_bill.php

http://sfbayview.com/2012/ammiano-decries-gov-browns-veto-of-media-access-to-prisoners/#

by Wendy Rae Hill  Sacramento – Assemblymember Tom Ammiano decried Gov. Jerry Brown’s veto yesterday of legislation that would have returned openness to California’s prison system.

Ammiano’s bill, AB 1270, would have restored, not expanded as noted in the veto message, media access to the level that existed in 1996 when the California Department of Corrections clamped down on the press’ ability to interview specific prisoners. The governor’s veto aligns him with his predecessors, who vetoed eight other versions of the media access bill.

“Press access isn’t just to sell newspapers. It’s a way for the public to know that the prisons it pays for are well run,” Ammiano said. “The CDCR’s unwillingness to be transparent is part of what has led to court orders on prison health care and overcrowding. We should know when the California prisons aren’t being well run before it goes to court. I invite the governor to visit the SHU (Security Housing Unit) to see for himself why media access is so important.”

September 5, 2012    Help Support Media Prison Access in California

There is a bill on CA Governor Brown’s desk right now that would once again enable the media to interview specific California inmates in person.  AB 1270 has been passed by the California Senate, and is awaiting the Governor’s signature.  He has until the end of September to sign the bill.

The bill’s sponsor, Assembly member Tom Ammiano, had this to say concerning the bill:  “We’re not just worried about reporters.  The lack of good information is also a danger to the prisoners, the employees and the public at large.  It was under these closed-door conditions that prison health conditions deteriorated to the point that the courts stepped in.  When it comes to prisons, what we don’t know can really hurt us.”

We have noticed a few false reports that the bill has already been signed. We have contacted Mr. Ammiano’s office and confirmed that the bill is still awaiting the Governor’s signature. 

You can encourage the Governor to sign this bill by writing/calling/emailing his office to voice your support for AB 1270.

You may contact Governor Jerry Brown by mail at:

Governor Jerry Brown
c/o State Capitol, Suite 1173
Sacramento, CA 95814

Phone:  (916) 445-2841
Fax:  (916) 558-3160

You may also send an email by using this online form.  For the subject, choose “Prison Issues/Concerns”

http://govnews.ca.gov/gov39mail/mail.php

Sample letter:

I support the AB 1270 bill on prison media openness sponsored by Tom Ammiano.

In light of the very poor conditions in CDCR prisons, I believe that transparency through improved media access is essential.  There is a lot of work to be done concerning the conditions of confinement for the many men incarcerated in your state, and better media access will surely highlight the issues that need to be addressed.

August 14, 2012   The Manson File:  Myth and Reality of an Outlaw Shaman available now

Nikolas Schrecks' new book is available here.

Charlie is aware of the book, and has written to clarify the record concerning Kenneth Como, an ex-inmate who was involved with some of "the family" during the early '70s.

Como was never an AB Brother – he was a punk, trying to be the leader of the family.  I told him there was no family, and he pulled some women off on a trip I had going, and changed it and got a lot of people shot – and didn’t want the AB to find out, and covered it up, tried to gang up on me and fell down and lied to Cat Shair.  AB didn’t poison me or try to destroy me.  That’s bunk.  Cat Shair Gypsy’s a Jew, and she was playing him to be communist [or] whatever. Jealousy was a problem.

Charles Manson

Excerpt from letter, July 2012

........................................................

About Como:  I helped him get out, and he undermined me because I was not as much into lies - he taught me.  He wanted to be the family leader, and I didn’t even know there was one before the DA made it up. 

I was doing what everyone was doing and playing my part. I knew it all but within my own way. Had we had time, I could have explained a lot.  People say, “CM wanted this” or “thought that”.  Ha – Bunkum.

July 25, 2012    Note from Gray Wolf

At Charles Manson’s personal request, myself and Star visited at CSP-Corcoran last weekend. Because Manson is still being held in solitary confinement in the Security Housing Unit (10 months and counting), the visit was non-contact, behind glass, for one hour. 

Previous to the visit, Charlie gave us the honor of requesting that we shave our heads and cut our foreheads to mark an X… “for ATWA and all the colors…”   

“Knowing knows once love, it’s forever.  If it ever was real, it is forever real – Honor. I cannot put no one above the one of my own forever.  The Life of my family is the Court, and we are all locked in God’s ways; known by the courts, God and country, Flag, and all that Hall of All.”  

Also at Charlie’s request, we are sharing pictures of ourselves here on MansonDirect.com. 

Star and I view this solemn gesture as a symbol, representative of all who have sacrificed and struggled for so many years to bring the truth to light and to redeem ATWA.  

We are adamant that we are not encouraging or soliciting anyone to copy or mimic our appearance.

If you wish to show solidarity and support for Charlie and ATWA, you can donate directly to ATWA, a registered California 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Organization – send check or money order to ATWA  P.O. Box 303 Corcoran, CA  93212.

July 2, 2012    Parole Board Lies: "While I'm at it..."

Note-

While I’m at it:

For the past 20 years I have NOT refused the Board - I’ve refused the handcuffs. I’m the only one who’s protecting anything, and that’s me and my mes.

PHUs don’t protect no one, they’re hiding under the PC they think cops do - Few cops would put their life up to protect convicts - It’s me who has my life up and out front and everyone’s using it, blaming it, buying and selling it -

And when they can cross me, everyone who builds up the friend brother thing cashes in and gives me up for the prize, or points, or approval; what fear they can get.

All the Bibles and Cross people crucify it best.  They are drunk on the blood of Saints.

Charles Manson   

Letter- June 2012

 

 

June 16, 2012    Parole Board Lies

During the April 2012 parole hearing for Charles Manson (in which Mr. Manson did not participate), the commissioner read for the record what prison staff worker Joe Reed claimed were the words of Manson as being, “I am special.  I am not like the average inmate.  I have put five people in the grave.  I have been in prison most of my life.  I am a very dangerous man.”  The parole board presented these words as if they were Manson’s statement concerning the parole hearing, and subsequently those words were broadcast worldwide by the mainstream media as some sort of confession to the crimes of which Manson has consistently maintained his innocence. 

Manson, after hearing the published news about the parole hearing, stated, “That parole board lied a lot – I never said what they said I did.  I never said that stuff.”

It was also reported that Mr. Manson refused to attend the parole hearing because prison staff would not recognize a “special request”.  This “special request” was that Manson not be handcuffed when escorted to, during, and from the hearing.  Manson:  “The cop Contreras said I refused to go.  That’s a lie – I refused handcuffs, and to be handled by people’s hands and being set up by and with rat inmates…”

Mr. Manson did not request, nor did he speak or communicate with the lawyer who “represented” him at the hearing.  It is unclear as to why prison officials designated a lawyer to be at the hearing for Manson, and in what capacity he could have possibly been acting.

Charles Manson is currently being held in solitary confinement under a questionable sentencing decision by administrative officials.  As usual, Mr. Manson is enduring constant harassment by various prison staff.  His 12-15 month term in “the hole” is scheduled to extend until either September or December 2012.

 

 

April 6, 2012

The California Dept. of Corrections and Rehabilitation has scheduled a parole hearing for Charles Manson on Wednesday, April 11, 2012 at 8:30 AM.  Manson is not expected to attend the hearing, however he does have the option to change his mind.

The corporate media is once again slanting their coverage by falsely referring to Manson as a “mass murderer” and “serial killer”. 

Mr. Manson is currently being held in solitary confinement, a fact that is conspicuously missing in the CDCR public announcements and mass media coverage.  Charlie has been in solitary (Corcoran State Prisons’ Security Housing Unit) since October 4th, 2011, serving a 1 year (minimum) disciplinary sentence.

Please note that the photo ID pictures released by the CDCR to the media this week are not current, having been taken on 6-16-2011.

 

 

 

Charles Manson Placed in Solitary Confinement at Age 77

 

CORCORAN, Feb. 7, 2012 – On October 4, 2011, officials at the California State Prison in Corcoran moved Charles Manson to the Security Housing Unit (SHU), also known as “the hole”.

Manson has been sentenced to more than a year in solitary confinement, based on the allegation that he was in possession of a “deadly weapon”. 

The alleged weapon was a wire from a pair of eye-glasses. Friends of Manson claim this recent decision by prison officials is yet another act of discrimination, since the item in question, although technically a rule violation, is commonly modified and used as a craft tool by inmates throughout the prison.

In solitary confinement (SHU), Manson is held in a cell for 23 hours a day and denied basic privileges such as packages, phone access, contact visits, and normal human interaction.  Considering his advanced age, friends are expressing great concern for Manson’s health and well-being.

More about solitary confinement -

Solitary Confinement is now widely viewed as inhumane, ineffective, and as having shattering physical and psychological effects.  

Solitary confinement violates the European Convention on Human Rights.

In a United Nations report, solitary confinement is classified as “cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment and even torture”, which “cause[s] severe mental and physical pain or suffering”.  The UN recommends that “the practice should be used only in very exceptional circumstances, as a last resort, [and] for as short a time as possible.” The UN now defines “prolonged solitary confinement” as any term longer than 15 days, because at that point, “some harmful psychological effects of isolation could become irreversible”.

Transcript of entire interview available now

April 20, 2011

Vanity Fair-Spain has published a magazine article and website story featuring portions of a phone interview with Charles Manson.  Some confusion has arisen within the corporate media as to the context, and translation from English to Spanish, and back to English, of Mr. Mansons' words.  In the interest of accuracy and understanding, relevant portions of the transcript of the interview between Charles Manson and David Lopez of Vanity Fair-Spain are presented below.  View the entire interview transcript.

David Lopez:  Mr. Manson, now that you're talking about the news, what do you think about Obama?

Charles Manson:  Obama?

 

Yes, what do you think about him?

I think he's foolish for doing it. I don't know how they tricked him into doing that. Someone tricked that guy into that. He doesn't realise what they're doing to him. They're playing him.

 

But, do you like him? Do you think he gives some kind of hope for someone or not?

I have no room for liking or disliking. I set the truth, I don't like or dislike it.

_________________

Mr. Manson, you have now a new lawyer, Giovanni Di Stefano, who is doing new movements to get your release from jail. 

No, that's just another Roman Catholic.  That's a Roman Catholic conspiracy to take my life and use my life for what in Siciliano Italians are doing in the Mafia.  That's a mafioso.  It's the same district attorney with a different face on, that's all. 

_________________

...Do you think you could be a danger for society...  How would you call it, the system?

The system.  The system is money, that's all that is.  And they won't give me any money.  I say, 'well, let me get some money'.  Everybodies making millions, 'you know how much money has been made from my life?  Because I started out at Catholic Boys School in 1946, and I wouldn't go to their conformation.

... Look at what they've done to the Irish people, look at what they've done to the African people. And you think I want to adjust to that?  Adjusting to that? I'm much worse than that. That's the only way I can be better than that. I can't be any better than that unless I'm worse than that. Because that's worse than I can think about, I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't do half the stuff they do, and that's what I told you about the President.  I don't know how they tricked him to doing that job, but he's stuck with it.

______________________

Is there any solution? What can we do to avoid that happen?

I'm telling you, every time I got out, the desert is deader than it was before. The mule deer are gone, the deer don't live there no more.  These bugs are gone, those bees don't exist.  The birds don't fly over here no more.  How come?

 

So there's no longer a solution to work against that?

Yeah, there's a solution, yes there is one. There's only one solution: everybody in the world accept God, air, and work for God, air. Everybody in the world accept air as God.  Accept air as God, because without air you do not exist. If you're going to exist, you have to exist with air. You've got to stop warring against air. Your sin is against yourself, 'is your sin against air. Air is all you've got. If you're making money to sell your air, you're selling your own life. You're buying and selling your own life to destruction. That system that you say that I'm not good, that I'm a danger to, I might be a danger to your stupidity and I'm a danger to your ignorance, but I'm not a danger to intelligent life forms. I'm not a danger to the people who want to exist on the planet. I'm not a danger to farmers, I'm not a danger to poor people, I'm not a danger to soldiers who don't want to hurt nobody, who don't wanna go to war, but who's forced into war by the bureaucrats who want to destroy themselves.

 

 

January 17, 2011   New ATWA booklet by Charles Manson published January 2011.

An overview of Charlies' life and his view of ATWA, transcribed - complete and unedited - has been published in booklet form. It is available now at CharliesArts.com Some exerpts from this 12 page booklet:

"The family of America. We must concentrate on the continent of America in order to unify our money, our perspectives, our social order, our lifestyles, and our things that we must do in time that we have, which is not much. We have a small amount of time left."

"Honor, if it is not honor, this country, this economy and this world is completely doomed by all means possible, because God is great, and there is no doubt about his grace, or his wrath."

"The Savior Project puts everyone in the army. Everyone's in the conservation corps, everyone's a civilian soldier."

"The birth of life on the planet has got to be green, it's got to come through the bushes, got to come through the trees, it has got to come through the seaweeds and the fish, the birds, the bees."

 

 December 3, 2010

The Los Angeles Times has reported that Charles Manson was found to possess a cell phone in his unit at CSP-Corcoran. Other news outlets have immediately picked up the story and amplified the original report.

The incident in question happened well over a year ago, but is being widely reported as fresh news. This kind of media coverage is a typical ruse used to manipulate public opinion against Manson and other California inmates in order to justify the continued allocation of taxpayer money to the law enforcement bureaucracy and the prison industry.

 

New Manson title released November 30th, 2010

A new book, Charles Manson Now, by Marlin Marynick is now available at bookstores nation-wide.

More information plus audio clips from Charlie are on the books' website.

Read a review of the book by one of Manson's close friends.

ATWA and Charles Manson - A Statement of Witness   (2009)

Charles Manson envisioned the word ATWA, meaning Air, Trees, Water, and Animals, to represent our life support system on the planet Earth. It also means All the Way Alive.

There is only ONE. One Air, one Water, one God. ATWA is God, for without air, without water, there is no you, no me, no life on Earth to have or hold a god.

The mass media has only lied and covered up the truth, hiding the efforts of many people to show that Charles Manson is order and life, not confusion and death.

Manson has served All Life for over 60 years from his prison cell grave. Brother to all men, Charles stands in honor and truth and brings this world to now, with the order and solutions to redeem our survival on earth.

Testimonies

Personally knowing Charles Manson, it upsets me on some level to see the lies they say about him on TV. They have NO idea what or who they're talking about!

The perfect example of a 'Catch 22' is Charles Manson speaking to the media. No matter WHAT he says, it has already been deemed insane. How can you explain anything when people have already made up their minds that you're crazy?! Think about it, you know that whatever is on TV is not in the peoples' best interests. You know they don't have a clue about anything. If you don't get it by now, it doesn't even matter.

We humans are living in an artificial world of concrete and plastic. There are a lot of TV heads that are too ignorant to recognize God and Truth. Their god is money, twisted sex perversions, and ego- a narrow minded lust for comfort.

If you put a plastic bag over your head, you would learn real quick what God is. GOD is AIR. That's number one. ATWA= AIR-TREES-WATER-ANIMALS: Your survival on planet Earth. Anything polluting our air and water is going against Gods' Will, which is Life. It's as simple as that, and it's what Charles Manson has been telling the world for over 40 years.

Life on this planet will survive, with or without humans. You'd best save yourselves a lot of horror and suffering, and put Manson in his rightful place of command. The human world is falling apart, pulling the rest of the earth down with it. The answer to the problem is in a cell in Corcoran State Prison. It is time to wise up and listen to the wise man, if you want to survive.

Star 2009


He saved my life... he never lied to me. I've watched as one by one the things he told me have come to pass, although at the time they made little sense to me. Now is the time to put energy back into the Earth. We've already taken too much out. Think about it... we cannot survive without the Earth. I'm pretty sure the Earth would survive without our input, that is, if we leave enough of it to survive. The government, the courts, the churches, the schools, the newspapers, the T.V., they all lie to us every day. Money is a cheap trick and no trade for life. We need to turn things around NOW. ATWA - That has always been his thought, the direction he has always pointed. He never deserved what he got. Isn't that the way of things... you give love and tell the truth, they hunt you down, name you the devil, and try to take away your life.

----------------------------------------------


'I decided to go into the mountains to talk to God, to apologize for 1900 years of this mess. That's when they got me and brought me here.''
Charles Manson, 1970

When Charles Manson was arrested with a band of young survivalists in Death Valley in 1969, it wasn't murder for which they were apprehended, but for the destruction of earth-moving equipment being used to destroy waterholes, build roads and tear up land. Asked if he had anything to say to the world, Manson replied, ''Get back to the Horse". Forty years later, Manson has remained steadfast in his message of ecological balance and the need for purification and harmony on Earth.

From the smog covered corner beneath the Hall of Justice in the 1970's, on their knees Manson's allies spoke for the Earth, they fought for the Earth and they lived ON THE EARTH. The media covered it up and are continuing to cover it up to this day. It was not brainwashing that moved his band, it was love, it was music, it was loyalty to the war against pollution, lies and confusion.

ATWA was created from the bottom, like a seed that starts under the ground. Charles Manson and the Family of Infinite Soul gave their lives to stop the world from being destroyed. They gave all to bring ATWA into reality, to bring this world to one thought.

Now, we must transcend the media brainwash, turn and face our children and our dying world. Become one heart, one mind, and work to redeem the Air, the Trees, the Water, and the Animals, which includes us. Manson is your reflection, if you wish to understand him you will need to know yourself first and be willing to face yourself and the way you live your life.


We are all breathing the same air. Whoever sins against our air by polluting it or destroying the green, the trees that give us our air, is a criminal and must face a World Court that has no mercy for transgressors. Everyone was and has been warned. You are either working for ATWA, or you will simply cease to exist.

Under Mansons' authority there will be no movies, no sports or music for entertainment; only work. One world, working to clean and support the air and water and protect the trees and animals. Prisons will be farms producing their own food. All schools, all jobs, must and will serve life's survival or they too will fade away. Our money will function only in service to the people and ATWA, not as a tool for greed, corruption or control.

This message is urgent. There is no time for lies, competition or personal games of ego and ambition. We must give Charles Manson the authority, the authority to bring order to our world, one world in service to Life.

March 20, 2009
Once again, the mainstream media has attempted to demean and diminish Charles Manson with a sloppy collection of lies, half truths, innuendos, and repetitive propaganda. Mr. Manson has shaved his thick head of hair, but is in no way bald, as purported by the AP and other news outlets. Describing Mr. Manson's visible swastika tattoo as a scar is just an example of ingnorance and jealousy. The picture accompaning the AP story is obviosly a forced photo of an abruptly awakened Charles Manson.

The sloppy and sleazy hack-job presented by Inside Edition on March 19th, 2009 is another example of broken promises and reactive journalism. The pictures displayed on their website, Insideedition.com, however, are worth viewing. These are recent pictures taken of C.M. by officers in the visiting room at Corcoran State Prison, and show a vibrant, spirited man who has survived 62 years in our prison system.
On Monday, March 23rd, Inside Edition has scheduled another short segment about Charles Manson with more recent pictures and audio of Mr. Manson speaking about his ecological vision, ATWA. It remains to be seen if Inside Edition will actually deliver on it's promises to Mr. Mansons' friends, who have provided the material for this program.

March 19, 2009
The television news magazine, Inside Edition, is featuring a Manson story tonight, which includes several new pictures of Charles Manson at Corcoran State Prison in California. Inside Edition has promised to do a follow up piece next Monday featuring audio of Manson talking about ATWA, his ecological vision. Tonights show will be airing tommorow morning in some areas. Corcoran State Prison has also released a new picture today as some kind of routine update of inmate files.
Although we cannot predict the content or angle of this program, we wish to inform folks about the airing of the new Manson pictures.

Update: Inside Edition story and photos here.

October 2008
Manson has been released from SHU and is back in the PHU, his regular housing unit.

April 4, 2008
It's been reported that Charlie entered the prison hospital about March 25, 2008 for breathing problems. He is doing well and feeling better. He has not yet been released from SHU. MansonDirect is told the prison has not yet conducted the hearing all inmates are entitled to receive when they are placed into SHU.

December 20, 2007
Charles Manson has been placed into the Secure Housing Unit ('The Hole'). As always, MansonDirect.com will report the details once we have seen the actual information first hand. While in SHU inmates can not receive packages or special purchases, so none should be sent at this time. SHU inmates are able to access a very limited amount of credit on their books, if they have any, for canteen purchases. Anyone wishing to add funds to Charlie's prison account can check the CDC website for details on how to do that. Postage stamps can not be sent to inmates in PHU or SHU, although envelopes with USPS embossed postage are permitted.

Message to all from Charles Manson, October 2007

In all my life, and where I've lived, the ways that things have come before me have set a lot of what I am, what I do, where I go, where I don't go, where I come from all around, and what I'm about. The court of my days, in my time, has become a chamber of my court in my thoughts and mind. We do what the court says, one way or the other, if we are to survive and live and have a life. I am what the court says I am, like it or not. I am the chambers of my court.


In other words, if the courts pick you up, and they take you and they get a verdict, that makes that a reality. Much more than the doctor signing your birth certificate! You are confirmed by the court as being what you are! It hasn't got anything to do with any other reality, except that the judge that sits in the court is our eye into the money.

That is said to say this: Real can only be what the court says! The court says I am a cult and its leader, like it or not. I am a dealer of life and death! What I did or did not do before, is in the wind. In other words, it doesn't matter what I did before. What the court says is what I have to do now. What the court says stands. It stands forever!

In all courts I have been in, my mind is only one chamber. The hole I came out of was prison. You can call it mother, but it was prison. Everything that is in all, is held in the prison of everything circles of what is not. And nothing holds everything! And isn't everything the prison, held to be nothing, or is it nothing being held by everything?

That's an intelligent thought, from an intelligent life form, who suffered 60 years to wake up to that axiom. When people lie to or about me, and won't let me be what I am, they end up with that judgment about themselves. (Its' got nothing to do with me! It took me a long time to wake up to that, too.) I can help a person, but not until he sees and knows, I can and will be truthful! If you know I'll be truthful, it can only be because you'll be truthful. But he first must be truthful and right with himself, with me.

What's been done to me in my will, will be the will that comes back, to and for, them. And it's my court. I am Charles. The court said so, and I was there in that will before I ever met anyone who was alive in 1969.

I have been the courts, and all that was and ever could be, and went to the Doctor and gave him my life! 'Bought the hospital with my inmate money in this prison, and was cheated and lied to about it. It WILL come back in truth, until honor and righteousness is set in its proper place. (In other words, what that means is, that I gave up a hernia operation, and laid down in a trailer and took a chance on losing my life! Because they wouldn't let me go to an outside hospital. They said it was an escape plot. So, they said they wanted to use this to go to Sacramento, to appropriate 7 million dollars, and use the notoriety of my case to make 7 million dollars from the prison fund to build this hospital. And the Doctor said if you do this, and we get the hospital, I'll give you the first broom. You'll be the tier tender. I was supposed to be the broom in the hospital. I've done this job in the federal prison, I've done it in Vacaville, and I was supposed to get a tier tender job that would be helping everybody in the hospital like I've always done.) When a person lies, he lies in and with the lies. I was told I'd get things. I'd get the first broom in the new hospital, and people thought they tricked me and the trick always comes back to the place where it starts.

Susan Atkins has been lying to those people, and who lies thinks everyone else lies. So what's happened here, the reason I am writing this letter, and sending this letter, is the doctor is under suit and everybody's on his case. And he's in court now, and he can't exist because so many lies have got on top of him. He's got the lies of the Hindu coming over and telling him he's the doctor. Because, the guy who set me on fire, you remember that? He killed his father for a Hindu Guru, who said that there was only healing from God. Then, as soon as he killed his father, the Guru got a haircut, turned around and come back like a doctor. 'Said he didn't have nothing to do with this guy. You dig? So then, when I went over for a colonoscopy, he's on top of my doctor (that gave me the hernia operation), with a lie, that's working out of some dude that killed his wife. And he's tricking this Hindu into thinking that he's a Hindu, and he's accepted that religion, that's his ultimate, you dig? And he pretended like he hung himself … and the Hindu let him out the back door in a witness program, with the other program administrator whose lying about the Christians. When he seen the Christian, lying, double-dealing preacher over here doing it, then he's just following suit towards that, and there's no truth in what they're doing, and no honor! You see it? So then the guy comes back to me because they're suing him. And they're taking his practice, and taking his life, and he can't get his hospital, and he can't get his doctor back, and he's losing his whole medical association! You dig? Because one hole in the boat's going to sink the boat! I'm trying to patch the hole in the boat so I can get my goddamned boat to float. And I can't get no righteousness going. I can't even get the damn mail out of the door. In other words, I'm having trouble just getting letters to you!

I got people who think they are taking over something. Whatever it is, it's convoluted with confusion, and lies and bullshit. And I can't get a straight line on anything in this place, man. They take my property and they do anything they want to do with my life. They run three sets of visitors off. They ran Ansome and T.J off, 'said they died.

Let me say this to you. You can't fake it. It's got to be real or it's not going to work. If it's not real and it's not true, it's simply just not going to work, man. You got to be real, you got to be righteous, you got to do it the way it's supposed to be done, and it's got nothing to do with me. Me is a word, man. Righteousness belongs to everybody. Everything that I'm saying is everyone. I'm not THE one. There is no one THE one. Everybody is the one. Everybody has the one inside of them.

April 2007 - Incident Report

February 10, 2007
Charles Manson speaks out about his upcoming parole hearing. Listen to Manson's message (MP3 file) to you about this important upcoming event.

August 23, 2006
Added a page about Charlie's efforts to get back his property. See page HERE.

Update May 5, 2006
MansonDirect has spoken with Manson. So that verifies that he's out of SHU and back into his regular housing unit. Charlie sounded strong and in good spirits.

Update May 4, 2006
MansonDirect has received information that Charlie has been released from SHU ('the hole') and is back in PHU, two weeks ahead of the anticipated release date. The information is not yet verified however.

Update April 14, 2006
A close friend of Charlie reports to MansonDirect that he has received several letters from Charlie within the past couple of weeks. Manson seems to be in good spirits even though he is still in SHU ('The Hole').

Update January 18, 2006
MansonDirect has received indications that Charlie is close to release from SHU. This is not confirmed by Manson himself however. Recent cards and letters including those received here have dealt with various topics, but Charlie hasn't speculated on his return to PHU at this point.

UPDATE August 25, 2005
MansonDirect has learned the facts behind the most recent placement of Charlie into the SHU ('the hole'). According to the written incident report, form CDC 115, on June 20, 2005 Manson was leaving his cell on his way to the shower. A guard delivering mail told Manson to stop and remain in the dayroom, so the guard could enter Manson's cell to search it for contraband. According to the guard's allegations, Manson said "The hell you are" and at that point stopped on the stairs, which the guard was about to walk up to reach Manson's cell. Supposedly, Manson took a swing at the guard. The guard set off his personal alarm to summon help, and tried to grab Manson's arm in order to place it behind his back so he could put hand cuffs on Manson. As the guard held Manson's arm, Charlie "lost his balance" according to the guard, and fell against the wall striking his head. At this point Manson was on the concrete floor and two other guards arrived on the scene, and together all three guards "held Manson down" and handcuffed his hands behind his back. Manson was experiencing pain in his head and his chest area at that point, so he was taken to the hospital for observation. No specific treatment was required at the hospital. Manson was released the same day, and was then placed directly into the SHU.

UPDATE July 26, 2005
Charlie has been returned to the SHU. He had been back in PHU since about April 6, 2005. We don't know the exact date he went back into the "hole", but it has been verified.

April 7, 2005 - CD release of One Mind

UPDATE April 6, 2005
A good friend of Manson's reports to us that he spoke to Charlie on the phone. Charlie had been in SHU ("the hole") since December 2003, a period of about 16 months. He is now back in PHU, his regular unit. The friend tells us that Charlie sounded good, and seemed to be in good spirits.

UPDATE March 28, 2005
A good friend of Manson's has informed us that he has heard from Charlie by mail. Charlie is in good spirits, and says he may be released from the SHU within the next week or two.

UPDATE December 6, 2004
MansonDirect has heard from a friend of Manson's who reports he received a lengthy letter from Manson. Manson says he had stopped writing due to on going mail problems. Manson is still in SHU. This is the only verified communication from Manson we have heard of in the past few months. Charlie is hanging in there.

UPDATE August 30, 2004
The most common question MansonDirect.com gets is What's new with Charlie. But often, there is not any real news to give. As of this date, Manson is still apparently having problems getting and receiving mail. Few people (only 1 we know of) have received any letters from him over the last couple of months. As far as we know, he is still in SHU ("the hole").

UPDATE July 17, 2004
The close friend of Manson has been kind enough to send MansonDirect.com a copy of the letter referenced in the May 20, 2004 updater. In it Manson says (paraphrased)"...My mail is not getting out. I've been writing and they've been taking the letters." He also says (paraphrased) "...A world full of people each trying to win or out do or beat someone, be better- they use death as a proving ground war fear and al that. I'm not in that mind set." he says (paraphrased) "...I'm honor, my only concern is ATWA honor.

UPDATE May 20, 2004
A friend of Manson has shared with us the news that they received a lengthly letter from Manson. Few people have heard from Charlie since he's been in the hole. Manson says there have been problems with the mail there, both in receiving letters people have written and in getting his letters out. On some occassions Manson has been given mail consisting of the empty envelopes, with the contents missing.

UPDATE March 22, 2004
We have now received word that Manson is likely to remain in SHU until September 2004 due to the reason mentioned in the December 12, 2003 update below.

UPDATE February 12, 2004
Oddly, no news has been received from Manson for over a month. We assume he is still in the hole, and we're working to discover his status.

UPDATE December 14, 2003
Written communication from Manson does now comfirm that he is in fact back in the hole.

UPDATE December 12, 2003
We have now received information that Manson was placed in the hole because guards found him to be in possession of homemade tools he was going to use to make another harp. They claimed the tools could be weapons. We still have not seen the paperwork, so we will keep you updated as the information comes in.

UPDATE December 8, 2003
MansonDirect has received information that Manson has been removed from PHU section and placed back into SHU ("the hole"). We have no details at this time, and have not yet verified this as fact.
Manson recently received a quarterly package of food items, candy and tobacco from a close friend, and was in good spirits recently.

UPDATE November 25, 2003
At this time there are no updates, but we receive comments from site visitors who say they are interested in knowing not only when something happens, but also want to know when things are the same with Charlie. In our last conversation with Charlie in November, he seemed in good spirits.

UPDATE September 8, 2003
It is reported to MansonDirect that Charlie has received 30 days lose of day room privileges for swearing at a guard. It is not necessary for an inmate to "start" trouble, but by merely responding to rough or abusive treatment from staff with a few choice comments, they are punished in these petty ways.

UPDATE September 8, 2003
After several weeks delay, Manson finally received his last package. (details on the packages). The package was sent to him within the time limit, but was refused by the prison, allegedly for an improperly written address. Their claim was that Manson's CDC number, B33920, was not correctly included in the address. But the package form was written by Manson himself and mailed out to the package sender as required. After the package was refused and returned, it was sent back and reached the prison bearing a postmark of the very last day of packages, July 31. Finally, the package was distributed to Manson by prison officials after three trips across the country! Sadly, this is all too typical of the treatment afforded Manson, just as it has been happening for all these years.

UPDATE August 23, 2003
The period of "restricted privileges" ended for Manson and he has been able to place phone calls for the last week or so. He did not receive his last special package due to allegations that the package was not correctly address. We are investigating.

UPDATE July 21, 2003
Manson continues on restriction (loss of privileges) until about July 25. MansonDirect has obtained a copy of the memo issued to inmates detailing new rules that end all outside packages and ordering on behalf of inmates. See HERE for details.

UPDATE July 7, 2003
Packages To End? This update applies to Manson and all inmates at CSP-Corcoran. We have learned that the long-threatened rules change that would ban packages from home has apparently been enacted within the last two days. Under this new rule, inmates would no longer be permitted to receive a quarterly package and would not be permitted to receive ANY items sent by family or friends through authorized vendors. More to follow on this important change.

UPDATE May 4, 2003
Within the last week, Manson was sentenced to 90 days loss of privileges, having been found guilty of the charges which prompted the investigation in February. He remains in PHU.

UPDATE April 23, 2003
Manson has been released from SHU and is back in the PHU housing unit. He is in good spirits.

UPDATE March 28, 2003
Manson remains in SHU ('the hole'). CDC claims they are conducting an "investigation" into allegations that Manson conducted a business enterprise by sending out items for sale to collectors. The claim is false. These kinds of claims are sometimes made by other inmates who wish to start trouble, and target Manson because he is a well known person. In this case another inmate (known to Manson Direct and also known to Corcoran officials) did steal some items from Manson and send them out through attorney mail. The inmate then instructed his attorney to try to sell the items, and the attorney did make such attempts. CDC has taken action against the inmate. But as the lies pour forth, Manson is ultimately the one who suffers by being placed in the hole. Such is the Corcoran Way. See: Does Manson Make Money From Prison

UPDATE February 28, 2003
Manson has been placed back into the SHU ('the hole'). Details are not yet known, but will be posted here as soon as available.

UPDATE February 19, 2003
Recently, Manson's guitar was damaged, and as a result he no longer has it available to play. Manson was unhappy about the turn of events, but has taken it in stride.

In other news, within the last few days Manson's cell was "tossed" and all of his incoming and outgoing postal mail was confiscated. CDC can do that whenever they like by claiming they are conducting an "investigation". But they are not required to tell the inmate what they are investigating. All incoming mail and all outgoing mail is opened, searched and carefully reviewed by CDC staff, so it is hard to imagine what there was in Manson's mail that warrented an "investigation" since all his incoming mail was already read by staff, and all his outgoing mail is read by staff. If any news of this event reaches Manson Direct we will place it on this page. But often times, the facts behind these so-called "investigations" are never revealed by CDC (even to the inmate). See the How You Can Help page for more information.

2003 - MansonDirect reviews the new CD, All The Way Alive

UPDATE December 20, 2002
Manson has finally been given his guitar. He has been denied a guitar for over three years. This guitar was sent to Manson by his friend "Tip Top", through an approved prison vendor, and following approved prison procedures. Manson has no money with which to buy a guitar himself, and he has only now been approved to received one. Manson Direct was pleased to assist Tip Top in the purchase of the guitar. This weekend, December 21 and 22, Manson has been sitting outside in the PHU yard, giving guitar lessons to a fellow inmate.

UPDATE December 3, 2002
Manson Direct has reviewed a copy of another "CDC 115" form regarding an event that occured back on October 4, 2002. On that dater the prison ordered Manson to under go a urinalysis test. The reason for the test is unknown, as drugs are not an issue in the very restrictive PHU environment. Manson asked "Why are you messing with me?" and declined to pee in a cup. The prison did not offer him any reason as to why he was being asked to take the test. Since Manson declined to take the test, he was written up but the 115 form was not finally processed until November 13, more than a month after the event. The original "charge" was "Refusing to submit to a urinalysis" but the prison later changed the "charge" to "Refusal To Obey Orders" a charge considered "Serious".

UPDATE October 31, 2002
Manson Direct reviews the "Rules Violation" report referenced in the October 26, 2002 update below. Click Here for the facts.

UPDATE October 26, 2002
Manson has been placed on "cell confinement" status for 90 days. This status does not cause an inmate to be placed in "the hole" (SHU) but it does result in a lose of all 'privileges' for the term of the sentence. It is believed this action was a result of a 'rules violation' about October 1, 2002. Manson Direct is in the process of obtaining copies of the 115 inmate violation report form and will report the details as soon as possible. Correction 11/4/02: Manson received 10 days cell confinement and 90 days loss of privileges.

UPDATE October 15, 2002
Manson Direct spoke with Manson by telephone Monday October 14, 2002 and was pleased to learn that after the events of Saturday October 12, Manson was not placed back in the hole (SHU). Manson was "written up" (115 form). During his removal from the visit area Saturday, Manson was pushed to the ground by guards. However, he said he was not hurt in the incident. Read the eyewitness account here.

UPDATE October 12, 2002
On Saturday October 12, 2002 Manson granted an interview to a local California newspaper, his first media interview in about 11 years. During the course of the interview Manson became upset and a minor altercation occurred involving angry shouting. The exact cause of the trouble is not yet known. The newspaper reporter and a guest visiting Manson were hustled out of the PHU visiting room and whisked out of the prison area and into the parking lot, accompanied by guards. Manson was escorted out of the visiting area and back into PHU section. It is not known yet whether he was placed back in the the hole (SHU). We will keep you updated as more information becomes available.

UPDATE September 2, 2002
One of the best types of update- reporting that all remains well with Manson. He continues to receive occasional visits, and has been allowed out of doors into the PHU yard to sit in the sunshine. The prison still has not given him back one of his guitars, but two weeks ago he borrowed one from another inmate and gave an impromptu outdoor concert of music and singing to a handful of other inmates. Too bad no recordings are permitted inside those prison walls!

UPDATE June 29, 2002
On Saturday June 29 Manson received a visitor, his first in over 2 years as far as we know.

UPDATE June 25, 2002
Manson has been released from "The Hole" and is back in the PHU section. Manson was held in solitary for 3 weeks "pending investigation" of an alleged threat against his safety.

UPDATE June 4, 2002
After barely three weeks, Manson has again been placed into the punitive SHU section, aka "The Hole".

Manson has apparently been accused of a minor rules infraction and was immediately placed into SHU even before any hearing on the matter took place. Revision 6/10/02: Supposedly Manson was placed in the hole as "protective custody" due to an alleged threat against his safety.

UPDATE May 13, 2002
Manson is finally back in the Protective Housing Unit (PHU) at Corcoran.

He was in the "hole" (SHU) for over two years- an extreme condition especially considering that 21 days is the normal maximum time.

Manson is doing well and feeling well.

UPDATE April 30, 2002
Charles Manson is still being held in disciplinary custody in the California State Prison (CSP)-Corcoran's Security Housing Unit (SHU) for allegedly threatening staff. He has been under the extreme lockdown conditions of SHU since mid-February, 2000.

Manson had a potential release date from SHU of February 2002, but in fact he was not released. If released he would have been returned to the prison's PHU.

UPDATE April 24, 2002
Manson declined to attend his parole hearing April 24. It was his 10th hearing to date. Prison sources are quoted as saying he refused to attend if handcuffed, and they would not allow him to attend the hearing unshackled. The parole board declined him parole and assigned him an excessive 5 year wait until his next hearing. news story

In a letter dated 4/25/2002 Manson said "I've been lied about so much and lied to so long I've begun to wonder what difference it may make to myself and everyone..."
