One of the last living 10-in-one performers. I wanted to be in show business the worst way, and that was it.

Uh, no, the post is much more creative.
I'm sorry, those wack jobs (the 3) killed those kids, but if Pearl Jam, et al, want to be cool and sing about 'em, go at it.

It really just seems like a normal, odd, headline you see everyday.

Maines is quite the piece of work.

Guess they forgot to tell Bill Buckley. "...as we reason and love, we are able to hope. And hope enables us to resist those things that would enslave us." |

The documentary about the band was well done, I thought.

I don't undestand the issue either. Public figures cannot be defamed. One way to become a public figure is to voluntarily thrust oneself upon a controversy (such as becoming the spokesperson for a local rallying group). If necessary, I can cite Supreme Court cases that cite this. Otherwise I'd suggest that the members of the Café who are quick to cry foul spend dime time at http://www.Oyez.org/ and see why the law is the way it is.

At the rally, Maines made statements claiming new DNA evidence implicated Terry Hobbs, stepfather of one of the slain boys, and also posted a note about the supposed new evidence on the Dixie Chicks' website. In reply, Hobbs filed a lawsuit claiming compensatory and punitive damages for "loss of income, injury to his reputation and emotional distress." The suit was dismissed, however, in December 2009." Apparently (judging from some web searches) a large number of people believe the "West Memphis 3" were falsely convicted, and that Hobbes might have been responsible instead. Anyone follow this story? Thoughts?

Yes, In watching the 2 movies, it seemed clear it was the 3 kids. All though with all the star power, you never know.
I would be ashamed if he was from my state also/
