Charles+Manson+Questions


 * __Questions Based off Of Charles Manson Documentary__**

1.) Is Charles Manson a Serial Killer?

This question is tough, there is many who says that he is and some that say he is not. I do not believe that he is. To be a serial killer you must physically kill someone. Manson does not. However, he is an illusionist and control freak. He preys upon the mind of his family and lied to get what he wanted. However, this does not make him a serial killer. He is just a control crazed motivator with a negative influence.

2.) Are family house members serial killers?

In this instance, yes. This is based off of my religious affiliation. We are given a sound mind. They are serial killer A.) For actually committing the crime, and B.) for letting Manson control their mind. This is where most people get confused. Manson never killed, he just used his family members as pawns. What is interesting, is that the girls didn't want to kill. I am assuming her conscience told her not to. Nevertheless, she went on with it. This makes her a serial killer.

3.) Do they all deserve the death penalty?

Even though this is totally contrary to what was stated in the previous two questions, I believe that Manson should get the death penalty. I guess its human nature to sympathize with the house members because they were wrongfully taken advantage by Manson. He took away lives mentally. He molded the family house members into what he wanted them to be. I believe that this is death penalty worthy. Although he did not physically kill them, he mentally used others to carry out what was his plots and ideas.
