I'm wondering if our college grads actually know who John Hinckley is?
And I'm wondering why he has been released....?
Talk about what is wrong with this country? Pathetic...to set someone like this, scum who tried to murder one of our Presidents, and to turn him lose...pathetic...they ought to put the people in prison who decided to turn this animal lose...they are what is wrong with this country.
The judge, Paul L. Friedman, is a liberal activist appointed by Bill Clinton in 1994. That kind of explains it, and foretells what will happen to the judicial system under wifey-poo Hillary. More bleeding heart liberals to set felons free, just like Obama did with the Gitmo terrorists.
Say... what's Sirhan Sirhan doing these days? The poor thing has been in prison a long time. Maybe the liberals should set him free, too?

Our judicial system stinks....
He was released because the verdict was NOT GUILTY by reason of insanity. With that verdict, the sentence is only served as long as the doctors say he is still insane. Once he is well, they have to let him go. The judges are putting restrictions on him, but even those will eventually have to be taken off.

What exactly is this supposed to mean? My high schooler saw the headline and asked me about Hinckley in the car the other day. Obviously she was born long after it happened, so she has no firsthand knowledge of the event, but she was curious about it, which I think is a good thing. Let's not forget that the parents of today's college students were mostly still in middle school when Hinckley attempted to assassinate Reagan. I remember it happening, but it's not like I was breathlessly following the coverage as a seventh grader, and that was long before the non-stop coverage we have today.
