This: "Ronald Reagan repealed the Mental Health Systems Act, Jimmy Carter’s landmark mental health care legislation" bugs me SO much. And so why has no Democratic president undone what Reagan did? This kind of thing happens ove, and over, and over again. Dems need to step it up. Release Leonard Peltier already! FFS. Trump will pardon every asshole in America though.
Well, John, as Lt. Nicholas Holden (Tony Curtis) said to Lt. Cmdr. Matt T. Sherman (Cary Grant) in 'Operation Petticoat' (1959), "As the boys in Vegas say, 'You're making your point the hard way.'" As your (prospective) agent, I'm thinking a (stage) name change might be in order here. How about we book you as 'Joe Blow' or - say, wait a minute ! Hold the front page of 'Variety'! - why not 'Nicky Holden' or 'Matty Sherman' ???
This is why I get the big money. Like Col. Tom Parker & Elvis. 50/50. Right down the middle. That's fair.
There was that one moment when you could have gone.... 'Let's do something about all these fucking guns. Even the President isn't safe from gun violence'. And now,, it's mandatory.
I have to admit. At first glance of the headline I was like, well you SHOULD be but reading this made me rethink that. Thank you Robyn for making me look a different side of this.
Journalism question: WTF is the point of this article? Why would anyone write an article about John Hinckley, let alone actually interview him and ask him questions, and actually write down (or tape) his answers? WHO CARES WHAT JOHN HINCKLEY THINKS ABOUT ANYTHING???
And...? What's your point here? That Reagan was correct in canceling Carter's mental health program, which might have prevented more tragedies like this? That Hinckley should have been--what? Executed?
Sick humans commit horrific acts, especially when they have access to big guns. There are more constructive ways to move society forward than labeling them "bastards" and signing off.
St. Elizabeth's is America's Gulag.
I think Hinckley needs to find a career that is less in the public eye than travelling singer.
Exactly who is that depraved to pay money to see him?
I hated Reagan, but this is ridiculous!

Reminded of how Biden can't just EO Border when the SCOTUS told him he was not allowed to. Didn't Bill get similarly smacked by SCOTUS?
"Kyle Rittenhouse. I am the Ghost of Wingnut Future. Come see what's in store for you."
Ta, Robyn. There's a lot of unmusical talent out there, but not everyone is infamous.

I don't like to criticize, but to my mind he is no Dizzy Gillespie.
He may have “issues” but I am simply amazed that this freak has 36,000 subscribers. Jeez. What is wrong with those people???

I doubt that attempting to kill someone classifies as culture.
Unless it's done in Texas with a gun, of course.
James Brady spent the rest of his life in a wheelchair after this bastard shot him.
Unable to gain any distance from his crackpot shrew of a wife.
What ever happened to the Brady Bill and gun control efforts in the US?

Shit, I confused this guy with the asshat who killed Lennon and my head exploded...picking up pieces now...
I get the confusion. THAT one is still in jail. Where he belongs. Unfortunately he’s allowed “visits” with his wife. John doesn’t.
All I have to say is that I am so glad Jodie Foster recovered from her trauma and went on to greatness. Hinx can fuck off
