Well.. whats good anyways? Take any person.. call him a murderer..lock him up and convince him that there's no hope.. mentally that person will change..will grow to hate people...and even if he gets out, some of that hate is still there ..some of that damage is irreversable..[/QUOTi
maybe, i don't know, i just think it's wierd, the way i analyze people is to watch the small things they do rather than what they say or what they try to convince people to think about them. I really don't know, I've read the evidence for both sides several times, I do know that Bob Dylan distanced himself from Hurricane once he knew more. Problem is, anyone who gets caught lies their ass off, it's predictable and not a reliable indicator of innocence. Not a big fan or superknowledgable about Carter but from what I read, he wasn't no choirboy. And why would you shit on someone who helped you get out? makes no sense to me, which is why i asked Ron about it on here, he wouldn't say and said that someday he'd write about it. I think he always was and still was a believer in Carter's innocence. one very interesting anectdote in his book was that he got in ali's face when the then cassius clay insulted a kid who wanted his autograph, it seems like cassius was truly arrogant and truly full of piss and vinegar especially in comparison to the sweet, humble man he evolved into, i believed it because it coincided with other accounts of who he was at that time. Also interesting were his accounts of sparring with liston, crazy. He also made himself sound like a spiritual, or rather philosophical, buddha like figure which i wasn't convinced by. Once a con, always a con.
