interestrateripoff Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/10141531/Ian-Brady-I-murdered-children-for-existential-experience.html Giving his first ever public explanation for why he committed the Moors murders, Brady, 75, described himself as a “comparatively petty criminal” in comparison to “global serial killers and thieves like Blair or Bush”.Describing his crimes as “recreational killing”, he complained that the public are still “obsessed” with his crimes after 50 years, saying he is still famous for the same “theatrical reasons” as Jack the Ripper. Speaking at length in public for the first time since he was jailed in 1966, Brady even suggested the continued public interest in the child killings he committed was because of the moors where he buried four bodies, comparing it to “Wuthering Heights and all that”. The extraordinary comments came as Brady began telling a judge why he believes he should be transferred from a psychiatric hospital to a prison. Although if he'd have had the power of Blair / Bush would he have done the same? What I think he meant to say in terms killing people he's just not in the same league as those that can command armies to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turned Out Nice Again Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Fascinating sociopath, Brady. Puts me in mind of the 1920s murderers Leopold and Loeb who believed themselves to be Nietzschean supermen (Übermensch) "exempted from the ordinary laws which govern men". They were the inspiration for several works in film, theater, and fiction, such as the 1929 play Rope by Patrick Hamilton which served as the basis for Alfred Hitchcock's film of the same name in 1948. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopold_and_Loeb Some ascerbic social commentary of Brady's was leaked in the press a couple of years back much of which could have been written by David Icke. He's certainly got Tony Blair's number. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/deranged-ian-bradys-ranting-letters-130237 Wouldn't have fancied having him cut my hair at the scrubs though (even if the banter would have been interesting).

davidg Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 A bit easy saying you are less of a demon than Tony Blair. Blair's doing a good job in the M.E. now, since he's been the peace envoy the whole region has gone to shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Executive Sadman Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 He's got it the wrong way round. He shouldnt be out because Bliar and Bush are, rather Bliar and bush should be locked up like he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
