John Hinckley attemps Assassination of Ronald Reagan
IPFS
Forgiveness note from Nancy Reagan to John Hinckley
Written by Thomas Costanzo Subject: HumorYou might recall that John Hinckley
was a seriously deranged young
man who shot President Reagan in the early 1980's.
Hinckley was absolutely obsessed with movie star Jodie Foster,
extremely jealous, and in his twisted mind, loved Jodie Foster to
the point that to make himself well known to her, he attempted to
assassinate President Reagan.
There is speculation Hinckley may soon be released as having been
rehabilitated. Consequently, you may appreciate the following letter
from Nancy Reagan to John Hinckley:
To: John Hinckley
From: Mrs. Nancy Reagan
My family and I wanted to drop you a short note to tell you how
pleased we are with the great strides you are making in your
recovery. In our fine country's spirit of understanding and
forgiveness, we want you to know there is a nonpartisan consensus of
compassion and forgiveness throughout.
The Reagan family and I want you to know that no grudge is borne
against you for shooting President Reagan. We, above all, are aware
of how the mental stress and pain could have driven you to such an
act of desperation. We are confident that you will soon make a
complete recovery and return to your family to join the world again
as a healthy and productive young man.
Best wishes,
Nancy Reagan & Family
P.S. While you have been incarcerated, Barack Obama has been banging
Jodie Foster like a screen door in a tornado. You might want to look into
that.

What I remember is that Hinkley came from an incredibly wealthy Texas oil family, that were great friends of Daddy Bush. And that Reagan got the message and ceased being Reagan in 1981.
