6. Here, consult your holy website:
http://www.truthout.org/docs_02/08.09A.jvb.class.htm

"Have you seen "The Ruling Class"? It was a 1972 British film starring Peter O'Toole as the 14th Earl of Gurney. The Earl is a peaceful madman who thinks he's Jesus Christ. Forced to abandon his belief in his freedom and goodness, and to take his place as a nobleman in the House of Lords, the Earl turns into Jack the Ripper. The House of Lords is "the ruling class."

8. HAve you seen FROM HELL?
That makes a lot of sense, and I think one of my profs told me that Prince Edward did have a penchant for "unfortunates" around that time. Didn't he really die of Syphilis?

9. It is fantasy
The doctor, Sir William Gull was elderly at the time of the murders. The Duke of Clarence, the suspected royal, was also known to send money to potential blackmailers rather than have them offed.

11. Well, don't you know that the repukes have
solved all of history's mysteries by now, they've determined that everything and anything that ever happened bad in history, even if it's never been figured out, is the fault of Bill Clinton! So, therefore, Jack the Ripper was Bill Clinton!
