Just breaking on MSNBC: John Hinckley has been granted unsupervised visits with his parents.

[Born Conservative]

Yes, you are right. Perhaps Hillary, but definitely not Bill...

[twigs]

I never, ever thought I'd say this, but 'ol Bill might do Jodie some good.

[international american]

This is bull$hit! If nothing else, you don't let a man out who tried to kill the leader of the free world!! Makes us look bad! The judge is a lefty fool!!

[Catspaw]

They'll have to be within that 50 mile radius, at least initially. I'll have to wait for the next report, but I do believe if Hinckley is "successful" on his first excursions, he'll be able to stay at his parent's house, but that's unconfirmed.

[Bikers4Bush]

And I hope he meets an unsupervised end via the front of a truck.

[CFC__VRWC]

If it had been a Democrat president Hinckley shot, the leftist judge(s) would NEVER permit him to have unsupervised visits home.

Heck, as it is the rest of the leftists will claim that the restrictions placed on him (e.g. must stay within 50 miles of DC) amount to "police state tactics."

Has anyone told him that Clinton's been porking Jody Foster?

This is the funniest, albeit black humor, post I have seen in a long time! FReepers have the sharpest wits!

[Catspaw]

Ya know, I've got a friend who does morning drive time radio. He's a liberal. When he found out that Hinckley could get out, he said--on the radio--that anyone who shoots a president should be put in a deep, dark hole for the rest of his (or her) life.

If he gets it, why can't the judge?

[international american]

The first 2 times, he will be fine....then he will skip!

[antiliberal]

Any word from Sara Brady and the gun-grabbing crowd? After all, Brady was shot as well, and was confined to a wheelchair for LIFE.

There's a small bulletin about Hinckley's release on the WP's website:

I hope to hell the US Secret Service never leaves him out of their sight.

[Stephen Ritter]

Who's next?

Squeaky Fromme ...

It'll be open season on GOP Presidents.

"If he gets it, why can't the judge?"

There are liberals and there are Reagan haters. I predict Hinckley will skip after a few visits. Psycho's are NOT curable. Look at that scumbag who murdered the college girl last month. NONE should EVER get out!!

Judge Friedman also member of Clinton's notorious "Secret Judiciary" panel.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Did she ever identify the father of her kid ?

[Catspaw]

No word from Sara Brady yet, but she, like everyone else (except Hinkley's parents, his lawyers and the judge) don't want him out either. The most vehement remarks I've heard about Hinkley's release were from CNN's Walter Rodgers, who was 18 inches away from Hinckley when he shot President Reagan. He thought that 1. Hinckley wasn't nuts and 2. That he was glad he was in Iraq when Hinckley was released.

[Texagirl4W]

And it only took 4 post to insinuate Bush did it.

"I hope to hell the US Secret Service never leaves him out of their sight."

Amen to that!!
