Without getting into a debate about his motives, making a big thing of Mark David Chapman's name not being repeated will only increase his notoriety, which was the point I was trying to make with the Voldemort reference. If you make a big deal about something, it becomes a big deal... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect

... whereas if you just mention Chapman's name in passing in a matter of fact way when appropriate then it doesn't become such a big deal. He's already pretty famous and a few more uses of his name on the internet won't make him more notorious. Encouraging people not to ...

They can be admittedly entertaining, if only in a shaking-my-damn-head-at-all-this-nonsense way.

Im not scared of the guys name in any way, simply dont want it mentioned here because that was one of the motives behind the murder - to get known/famous by killing John. Why should that be allowed to occur here of all places?

Anyway moving on from such a horrid topic.

There are a lot of sites out there that are created to contain stupid made up rumours so people will visit and read them. Bumps up their visitor numbers.

The Walrus said

The Strawberry said
I originally didn't use his name, but then I thought some people wouldn't know who I was talking about. He needs a nickname. I fixed it Mr. Mustard.

Was wondering who the Hawaiin Sea Devil was.

Fear of a name increases fear of a thing itself.

It's not a fear of the name. I agree with Mr. Mustard. The murder does not deserve to be known by a name.

It was sarcasm because the premise that Paul died and was replaced by someone else is clearly rediculous and only made more so by using songs and pics before the event to back up the arguement. At times i forget that its difficult to read the sentiment behind the words. My bad.

Regarding John, i can see during the Help! snow scenes John being asked for a picture by someone who has no idea who he trully is and using his skiing double as a joke, maybe by pointing out the double when asked and saying "that's John over there".

I dont ...

I don't believe what you're saying at all. In your scenario, The Beatles were gypsies who could see the future? And instead of telling Paul, "Hey, be careful," they made songs about him dying before he died? I don't buy that one little bit, jut my opinion though. (Don't get mad at this Mr. Mustard. You're one of my favorite members on here.)

Can you explain that last part to me? I can see ...

A small request. Can John's murderer not be mentioned by his actual name? It may seem petty but he did it for notoriety, to become known, and so the best thing we can do is ensure that s.o.b. is never mentioned on these pages.

Thanks.

To return to the topic. Yes Paul died in 1966, and the beatles had such foresight and talent they were able to predict how he died by calling their album Rubber Soul (rubber = tyres, soul = life/death), having songs such as Drive My Car, and having a photo session that featured Paul in a box if ...

Piggies, don't even get me started with that movie. That movie was so terrible, it says he died in November 1966 and then it says there are album cover clues on Rubber Soul and Revolver. Thanks though.

What about the other stuff, I'm talking more about the more believable stuff. Like the Hawaiian devil possibly being partnered with someone in the murder. Or the FBI possibly having something to do with it.

Don't believe a word of it! The Paul is dead thing is not real. Funny, really, I just got the book about the hoax "The Walrus Was Paul" on Friday. It's interesting, but fake. Who could replace Paul's voice, personality, talent, and looks, even with plastic surgery? There is only one Paul. And John is not here. Why would he pretend? And why would the doctors lie? People take the Paul is dead thing really far though. Did you guys see "Paul McCartney Really Is Dead: The Last Testimony Of George Harrison"?

That website seems to want there to be a cover up and is forcing the "evidence" to fit that. Their main piece of "evidence" seems to be "Paul doesn't look the same now as he did when he was 20", and from that they are extrapolating kidnappings by the KKK, George running around in the East and everyone having doubles and plastic surgery.

Not sure this helps, but I've also heard that the John Lennon quote you're using, "When I was 5 years old . . ." was never actually said by Lennon. Apparently no one can find the source.
