Had no idea this guy was still alive. He says he doesnt remember the killing but you think that'd stay with you wouldnt it?

I dunno, you assinate one senator decades ago and people won't let you forget it.

From the few lines quoted in the article, he still seems a bit of a wrong 'un. He's learned to harness his anger and will choose peace going forward or something? Still seems like he might change his mind if he gets out and the mood takes him.

Fair play though he lives nowhere near me so crack on I say.

( reminds me of my time in Moscow, when me and my friend would use the Russian phrase " d'vai d'vai ", which translates roughly as " let's go". We would follow up this phrase with either # with your eyes so blue#, or # he's the greatest dancer#.)

Imagine if he kills another Kennedy. They'd throw the book at him!

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

Find him a twitter account where he can make unpopular comments about 80s postpunk.

A Sirhan Ratio

I went off him when he split into Arcadia and The Power Station.

[buttgammon]

Such a dickhead they named him twice.

Weren't there a few unanswered questions about this, such as the marks on RFK's head which suggest that the gun fired inches from his head, but no eyewitness saw Sirhan any closer than a few feet away.
Good documentary here: https://youtu.be/11sDQFLmPX8

Worth watching, if just for this guy's hair.

My brother's well into JFK & Bobby Kennedy stuff. He has a birthday coming up so it would be great if Sirhan gets out and does Cameo.com videos.

The Netflix doc 'Bobby Kennedy For President' is also worth a watch. If I remember right there are some of RFK's staff who were there that don't believe Sirhan did it.

Really striking is audio of the call from the hotel to the police just after, they don't seem to be very interested even saying 'BIG DEAL!' in a really sarcastic tone at one point.

Great, he can star in Barbarella 2. (to make this post a little less of a bad pun box ticking exercise, it is weird to think that Sirhan Sirhan has been in custody/incarceration since before the release of the original Barbarella)

[Lisa Jesusandmarychain]

Was genuinely thinking of Robert Palmer and being quite puzzled for aaaaaages after reading this post, before the image of Milo O' Shea trying to make Jane Fonda cark it from having a right old sexy time of it popped into me 'ead. What am I like, eh?

Please Sirhan Sirhan can I have some morehan morehan

I spent a few weeks in Moscow many years ago - doesn't that mean "two, two"? One of the only words of Russian I remember (because I was pissed for most of it).

[Lisa Jesusandmarychain]

" dva" is ( one variation of ) The Russian for two. The phrase I quoted is pronounced more like " de(r) vigh "( to rhyme with " high").
The Estonian for " two" is pronounced exactly like " cocks", so that's nice.

This doesn't look good for Corbyn.

How about if you affect a confused smile, hold up two fingers and gesture to the bottles of Baltika 7 hopefully?

Done something like this on numerous occasions. Sometimes, the shop assistant will say " cocks?"  for confirmation. Been nudged in the side by my Finnish companion when they can see I'm on the verge of sniggering. Then a bit of a dressing down and a reminder of my age when we're outside the shop.

I have friends who went to Germany and on their return insisted that "nobbin'" was German for good evening, and still say it years later. It's barely even a rude word. (Guten Abend.)

There's a theory that Sir Sirhan was brainwashed by CIA mind control programs and turned into a Manchurian candidate-style hypnotised assassin (as featured in The Naked Gun). Here's an old interview.
