Chapman Pleads For Parole
By Camiele White: 2008-08-20 12:46:13
It’s a bit too little too late if you ask me, but John Lennon’s assassin, now 53 year old Mark David Chapman disclosed to parole officials that he regrets and understands the depth of his decision 30 years ago to take the life of a visionary artist of our times. He told officials, quote “I feel now at 53 I have grown into a deeper understanding of what a human life is. I have changed a lot.”
In another heart-wrenching effort to conceptulaize his own selfish desire to take the life of another, the AP told California sources at NME.com that the so-called “reformed” Chapman stated he also realized how much of a toll his complete disregard for human life has taken on Lennon’s loved ones, namely, his wife Yoko Ono and his two sons, Julian and Sean. If you want my honest opinion, I think it’s just a lame attempt at trying to sinch another shot at parole. Granted, a man who has had nearly 30 years to ruminate on the faults of the past, specifically, what landed him jail in the first place, could and should reevaluate what it is that affords him the right to walk freely in this world. Though it may seem I am little less than forgiving, you have to admit that it is a bit of stretch for someone who cooly asks for an autograph then shoots a man four times while his back is turned to get any sort of sympathy or appreciation of hindsight from me. In what seems a trial by fire attempt to get some sort of bleeding heart sympathy from a panel of people who decide whether you get to breath civilian air again, it is no surprise that Chapman was again denied parole for his 20-to-life sentence. He will be eligible again in 2010. Let’s hope he comes up with something more genuine and original than, “I was a kid and I was stupid. I’ve changed a lot since then.” Because this crowd ain’t buyin’. RELATED: john lennon, mark david chapman
