    I remember this shooting like it happened yesterday. It was on a Monday. I was 15 and had just gotten off the bus from school. I threw my books on the couch and saw there was a news bulletin on TV. I ran to the kitchen and told my mom Reagan had gotten shot. Both of us ran back to the den to see what had happened.

      I can only guess that he was finally, properly rehabilitated. If there's any purpose to the justice system, someone like Hinckley should be an example. He was a troubled young man but that was 40 years ago. An obsession with Jodie Foster combined with not being able to form a life for himself in the world resulted in him being tortured by his own demons. I can only presume that during his long confinement, they found some way to fix him. President Reagan did not die, and perhaps 40 years give or take is enough of a societal debt to pay for what he did to James Brady (whose life was altered but not immediately ended by the gunfire).
      I don't know. It's always been a tricky situation. I guess whatever medicine he's on has successfully balanced out his brain chemistry enough where he's a stable person now.

      Reagan what shot to the body (under the armpit), making it a much more serious wound. I think what Trump did given the fact he was able to was very courageous. If someone shoots at you because of your right to freedom of speech, I think you have the right to express yourself. Stop trying to point score in a scenario that any decent human would be able to say was wrong and shouldn't have happened. It's pathetic, and I think you need to grow up a bit.
