The reason he's not allowed to do interviews is because every time he talks it just shows him for a deluded crazy old bugfuck who has long outlived his danger as anything but a symbol for every malcontent or wannabe badguy who needs something to put on a tshirt.

Why do you think we still get press releases every time parole comes up for him? You said yourselves, California houses thousands of prisoners, do we get headlines or press clippings complete with photos about any of them when they go up for parole hearings?
