“Donald watch your back. Snakes don’t change.”

How far we have fallen.....now you can attempt to kill a President, especially a Republican and given enough time, all is forgiven and all is well. It wouldn’t surprise me if Hinkley isn’t honored and celebrated among the democrats since they hated President Reagan so much. I remember reading quite some time ago that hillary and chelsea were visiting Washington, DC and chelsea wanted to tour the White House and hillary was said to tell daughter, “Not until someone decent lives there. I don’t know if that is true, but I wouldn’t put it past hillary.

I have heard he has a lot of restrictions placed on him, via news report on WTIC AM/CBS Radio.

I thought when Brady died it was determined his death was from complications of Hinckley shooting him and they would charge him with his murder. Guess not.

In most states, the death has to be within a certain time period after the incident.

The timing is odd. Already the media are replaying the Reagan assassination attempt on a loop. Is this meant to push new would-be assassins over the edge, and into action?

This all has the feel of some disinformation campaign - something is being pushed

Jodie Foster better 911 Gavin DeBecker’s office. She’s going to need fulltime security.

Just in time to give him a shot at Trump.

I guess it’s time to give Sirhan Sirhan his walking papers too.

Don’t want to be prejudicial regarding our assassins do we.

If I were Jodi Foster, I'd still be worried.

I just watched a tv show that told this story. For many, many years after being locked up, Hinckley still was under the impression that he and Jodi were a couple.

This guy is going to go after her this time and his reality will override everything else.

Old SNL skit.

Charles Manson: Wow, these new CDs are great. The sound is crystal clear. Just got the “White Album”, and there aren’t any messages to kill people. I must of had a blown speaker or something.

“I think if you try to kill the president you should never get out, ever.”

Well, it’s not like he tried to kill a Democrat president.

It will simply push more folks to vote for Mr. Trump, because of the “law and order” issue.

Maybe there’s a hit-man out there who might want to do some pro-bono work?

He was found not guilty by a jury of his peers.

Verdicts have consequences.

It’s been said that the Bush family and Hinckley family knew one another. Hmmmm.
