He is a very intelligent person, most people don't know that about him.
A lot of people forget or never realize that I started my band as a criticism of these very issues of despair and hypocrisy. The name Marilyn Manson has never celebrated the sad fact that America puts killers on the cover of Time magazine, giving them as much notoriety as our favorite movie stars. From Jesse James to Charles Manson, the media, since their inception, have turned criminals into folk heroes. They just created two new ones when they plastered those dip-#s Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris' pictures on the front of every newspaper. Don't be surprised if every kid who gets pushed around has two new idols.

"If you knew what the hell was going on in your own system, then you’d say, “Now I see what’s creating this. Society’s creating It. Society’s saying we want these Rambos, we want these killers. Oh wow man, look at that dude there. And you got little kids looking in the book. What are they selling? In the Sear & Roebuck: Rambo for 12 to 15. Ki Karate from age 5 to17. See, you got all your kids out here doing these crazy things now you want to come and say “Charlie Manson is the father of our country. We’re convicting you for being Jesus Christ. We’re convicting you for being the devil. We’re convicting you for being responsible for our actions.”
