Bronson Aka Peterson

[tamborine]

on tv tonight. I see he is strong & viscious but is that reason for a life sentence? He isnt a murderer.

[PankySmooch]

Who?

[tamborine]

charles bronson, Brit notorious prisoner

[mastercraft]

The potential is there.

[PankySmooch]

No he's not a murderer but he's not the most placid prisoner either

[tamborine]

seems he was arrested for robberies but violence kicks in when jailed. mostly towards wardens or cell mates. I can understand that frustration if your sentence outweighs your crime.

[trt]

When he was first imprisoned he beat up a warden, and got extra, then he took hostages and beat then up.
Its the best place for him to protect people like you and me.

[tonyav]

He wants to get wed when he gets out.

He's a raving lunatic and should stay locked up

[tamborine]

He's held naked in a cage for wardens protection. Apparently he has only ever attacked prison staff. I would have thought his anger management is controllable & he lives in humane conditions.

[PankySmooch]

Didn't he hold a cell mate hostage once?

[nailit]

I have read quite a few of his books that he's had published whilst in custody. Personally I think he has become something of a 'political' prisoner (made a monkey of prison staff etc while in custody, and made a monkey of the establishment). He's never killed anyone or hurt a woman or child. Give him his freedom.

[PankySmooch]

You are kidding nailit?

Would you put him up for the night?

[tamborine]

Tony, your link was amusing.....Bronson has soh ;) Am not brave with people & would emigrate if he crossed my path, but the injustice of his captivity would bother me. His strength could be put to use in a larger controlled environment, ie catching camels & roos in the bush. His own lil penal colony.

[anneasquith]

awe come on nailit, the man is bad !!!

[tonyav]

ie catching camels & roos in the bush. His own lil penal colony.
