that's what he wants you to think he's saying, but it's not.

And yes, i read the entire series. I read EVERYTHING he wrote until about 2002 or so.

YOU read them again and tell me he doesn't look for excuses to commit atrocities. Oh he's so "sorry" of course, but what can you do? You have to do what you have to do. No matter how violent it is.

He has a christ-complex. The man is a complete whack job.

And even if you don't agree with that - EVERYTHING he stands for is antithetical to the ideals of the Democratic Party.

(And the stuff in his other books is Very creepy. Lost Boys? Using his OWN SON in book? THAT BOOK? THAT son? iiiicck. Oh and the underage sex thing in Treasure Box - I think that was the name of the book or something like that. . . . methinks OSC is more than a few bricks short of a load.)
