The Man Who Tried to Kill Reagan Is Now Free. Americans Should Be Outraged.
Daily Signal ^ | 7/27/16 | Craig Shirley

The decision to release John Hinckley Jr. from St. Elizabeth’s psychiatric hospital after his attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan is outrageous, disgraceful, and a travesty of justice.

No matter how much supervision he has, Hinckley cannot be trusted to move and function in society.

Even though his victims, Reagan and White House press secretary James Brady, have died, Hinckley remains a threat. According to the Secret Service, he is still obsessed with Jodie Foster. Hinckley’s actions remain a terrible stain on American history and a reminder of the lifetime of damage that can be caused by one man in a matter of seconds.

This is a purely political decision by Judge Paul L. Friedman, who clearly wishes to corrupt Reagan’s legacy. Friedman was appointed to the bench by President Bill Clinton in March 1994. Just as a jury of liberal Washingtonians came to the liberally biased verdict that Hinckley was innocent by reason of insanity, so too is this decision.

Not surprised. This is an effort to slap Mr. Trump in the face.

I wonder what the liberals would think if Mark David Chapman were also released.

Attempt to assassinate a Republican President...get released.

Murder a Rock Star...stay in prison.

Go Figure.

"he is still obsessed with Jodie Foster"

Does he not now realize that neither he, or any actual male, will ever have a chance with her?

Is the guy who killed Bobby Kennedy still in jail or even still alive?

“Does he not now realize that neither he, or any actual male, will ever have a chance with her?”

Guessing he could have probably had an operation for that on our dime while still (occasionally) locked up.

Jody and he will be voting the same ticket anyway.

Don't care. The only thing that is important is he tried to kill RWR. Why is Hinckley still sucking air?

That's what I'm asking. I said in another thread that he should be staring at 4 walls in a SuperMax for the rest of his miserable existence. When I think about it, execution is probably the better option in this case.

I'm not sure the / s is apropos .... they just might BE looking for him to do something.

How many of us conspiracy theorists believe the Adam Lanza's were all shills for the occasion ?
