Remember this happened in Texas and Louisiana is no different. The good news is that God is faithful and hears our prayers. God Bless and keep you Mr. Simmons.

Thank God he's working towards holding them accountable. Just want you to know I've always been a fan of you even when I occasionally disagree with you. God bless him! God bless you!

I do not consider Mr. Simmons to be a part of “shameful history” at all- because he transcended his deplorable conditions even as he served his physical sentence. He taught himself to read and write to become an excellent and thoughtful critical thinker; absorbed and learned everything he could through books and thought, even teaching others about different religions he explored and took to heart; learned everything about his case and engineered his own freedom through the legal system (being declared exonerated and not guilty of his supposed crime). Mr. Simmons is the finest example of a person in my lifetime who has not held others responsible for his own fate, but has worked consistently (even when held back and not met with cooperation), to achieve his own destiny. I am in awe of this man and his strength of character. Mr. Simmons, thank you for not giving up and not giving in- especially, not giving in. Just from this interview, you have become my most admired role model. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

@@user-qu4ey5yy3f I agree that Mr. Simmons is part of shameful treatment during our country’s history. I grew up in the American South and experienced what was happening there. Thing is, each of us experiences the same chronological historical years. All of history is shameful, depending on the different vantage points of people experiencing events at the same time, each having their own perspective. Yes, he was affected mentally by his circumstances, but Mr. Simmons chose to not let himself ultimately be a victim of circumstance; he rose above. He equipped himself intellectually and spiritually to address the situation he found himself in so that he could move forward to a better place. And though I imagine at times he felt victimized, Mr. Simmons proved to be no victim. Again, I am humbled, impressed, and feel this man can be a great role model for those who choose it. Hope he writes a book. Edits: grammar and clarity

May this angel on earth live a long healthy life until 120 at least! We need people like him, especially now in these times of narcissism. He proves self education is far superior to state sponsored education. What a great man!

Imagine leaving the peak of cold war, disco, and rock n roll only to came back and see an even worse economy crisis, feminists and lgbtq outbursts, and countries on the verge of starting another world war. He didn't get to see his family and friends grow old, he missed the whole seasons of Friends, he didn't get to experience good video games, he missed A LOT in the world of entertainment, and technology development. BRO spent in exclusion longer than the Jews had in exile. The fact that he still maintains his sanity is a miracle.

Reflecting on the interview with Glynn Simmons, one is left in awe of the sheer force of character he exudes. Glynn’s demeanor is not just confident but unshakably so, manifesting a resilience and strength that is both inspiring and compelling. His presence radiates a profound sense of self-assurance and determination, qualities that are palpable in every word he articulates and decision he makes. It’s rare to encounter an individual whose character is as steadfast and unyielding, yet imbued with a genuine kindness and humility. Glynn navigates challenges with a grace and fortitude that speaks volumes of his inner strength, making it abundantly clear that he is not merely participating in life’s journey but actively shaping his destiny. His performance in the interview did not just showcase his exceptional skills and expertise but underscored the remarkable human spirit he embodies. What an amazing interview, what an amazing man, Glynn Simmons.

This interview was riveting. Mr. Simmons is an incredibly inspiring individual. He is so balanced and insightful, after such a harrowing ordeal, it speaks volumes as to his character. The points he made with respect to (1) faith and his ultimate finding with respect to everything being one (reference to religious faiths) and (2) the relative nature of "energy". I hope and pray that his lawsuit proves successful and those who were complicit in framing him, be brought to justice. May he and his family be blessed for the remainder of his days!
