It’s a meaningless aphorism. Could stand for “Rest in Pain” for all I care.

In a way I hope he lives.  
I have a feeling that if he were dead it would better the chances of the remaining Manson women getting out. And they’re still young enough (well, like mid to late 60’s I think) to get something out of life.

Did they take part in eviscerating a pregnant woman?

I vote for “Rot Into Pieces”.

You got it wrong. He wants them to stay put and die in jail, like Sadie Mae.

Maybe the problem was attempted suicide, and they made him all better.

They’re reporting Manson is too weak for surgery. Hard to confirm because of HIPAA laws. There won’t be any official sources.

I guess he was sent back to prison because there’s not much that can be done?

It’s understandable.

For me, I was too young when the murders happened for them to affect me. I don’t really care if he’s alive or not. But I shan’t shed any tears when he croaks.

I’m thinking of drinking a six pack of Budweiser and visiting his grave.
