When was the date of the Declaration of Independence?
or the beginning of the Civil War?
or when Lewis and Clark set off?
or Pearl Harbor?
or the First Lunar Landing?
PFFFT! WHO CARES?
History sux...turn on "The Kardashians" or "Dancing With the Stars"
Y'know....serious, important stuff!
So, I take it you can't answer any of the questions I posed and are trying to deflect.
It was your topic, I thought you'd know this important information about when any PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WAS ALMOST ASSASSINATED.
Apparently, you don't know the dates of the ones who were assassinated.
The day the inspiration for the Brady Campaign of Gun Banners was born. Law abiding gun owners have had to fight tooth and nail to keep thier rights ever since just because a crazed azzhat wanted to assasinate Pres. Reagan to impress Jodie Foster.
Since James Brady was shot in the head that day his wife has been as obsessed with removing the 2nd Amendment rights of all law abiding gunowners as Hinkley was with Jodie Foster.
I was in 8th grade math class. A bully who sat in back of me was spitting in my hair (back when I had hair). When the news about Reagan broke everyone paid attention, even the bully stopped spitting for a few minutes. To this day I wish schools could torture (Gitmo style) school bullies, but that's a whole other topic.

Pwned.
lol. Shouldn't you log off and check out the latest Kardashian show episode?
No, but seriously this is about an important anniversary in America's history. If you care not for American history or are a foreigner that's all right.
Many of us here actually find our history an important guide to our future as a nation.
The pop culture horde may outnumber us but American History Buffs will never die!
Watching TV in the living room with my Grandfather. I was 15...and i remember being pretty indifferent about it. I never believed for a minute that he was gonna die. My grandfather was even more indifferent than i was. We didn't have cable back then (our n'hood wasn' wired yet), so the news coverage took up all the channels. He got so mad about it that he went outside and started working on his old car project. We never even discussed it.
The one thing i do remember though, was constantly thinking.."Jodie Foster?" LMAO...why HER?

I asked you about other significant days that you don't celebrate or even know about, apparently.
You, apparently, don't know very much about the history of the US or you would be acknowledging our assassinated presidents and all 13 who had assassination attempts.
Reagan is not the only one.
I don't live in the US, so I have no idea what you're talking about; you apparently do.
So sorry that you can't figure out or have interest in the dates of presidential assassinations.
Apparently, you don't know much about the history.
Like I said earlier, pwned.
Sorry. I thought the anniversary of the day the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WAS NEARLY MURDERED would garner a mention. I guess the day the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WAS NEARLY MURDERED should be totally forgotten.
Well, he didn't die, and went on to almost 8 more years as pres. So maybe not so significant as you think. What is the date of Eisenhower's heart attack? Of Reagan's onset of dementia?
