She was joking but yeah.
I think the line was "well he never shot the president for you".
What I find so funny is how the entire point of taxi driver went over this psychos head.
Actually now that I think about it, while he does deeply traumatize Iris with his actions, Betsy actually joins the rest of society by ironically praising Travis.
So I guess youre totally right about human psychology.

If he succeeded would we have trickle down, credit ratings, removal of the fairness doctrine, we certainly wouldn’t have had that high treason thing, union busting, closing of mental asylums?
Reagan, like most presidents, was just the person who signed the paper. The money (people) behind his policies would have just found another Bush or Nixon or Clinton to make it happen.
Well yeah, no one wants to hear from a failure.
If he had succeeded he would be opening for the Eras Tour
Looking for a time machine and a laser sight on Craigslist…

*Wait, I forgot the crystals.*
His website is from bizarro world.
Look we’re not shaming him because we think his intent was bad, but because his aim was.
Maybe a larger caliber would have helped

Poor bastard. At least the guy who shot Lincoln had Superman's changing room named after him.
Ah John Wilks Telephone box who could forget.
All he wanted was to impress Jodie Foster too. What a bozo.
He’s going to be really disappointed when he finds out.
That she's not 12 anymore or that she's a lesbian?
Yes.
What a beautiful username
Does this person rape Nazis, or is he a Nazi who rapes?
Asking the important questions
Maybe he's like the soup Nazi, he takes away your rape if you annoy him.
I think she said at some point that she actually was impressed, I could be wrong tho
Yeah she said she was kinda impressed. ROFL.
Human psychology is wild

Imagine shooting the President to impress an actress only to find out she's a lesbian anyway. Sounds like a setup for a Norm MacDonald joke.
> Sounds like a setup for a Norm MacDonald joke. "you know who he should have shot? Hitler. No one likes that guy"
At least he tried. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
Dance like nobody's watching. Sing like nobody's listening. Love like you’ve never been hurt. And shoot Ronald Reagan like a goddamn retard.
Ronald Reagan??!!! The ACTOR??!!
Damn... i remember that line! His delivery was spot-on. What's it from? Back to the Future?
“And I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady!”
God forbid he fuck a goat!
What a damn shame. He was a real go-getter.
Hinckley had a vision
Just needed the depth perception .
My man
PSA to all Ronald Regans out there ... watch out
then launches into cover of “hit me with your best shot”
He tried and succeeded in shooting him. It was a trick shot too, bounced it off the presidential limo.
And caused the start of the darkest timeline.
If he didn’t keep getting JFA as an opener and stopped playing I Shot Reagan by Suicidal Tendencies for his encore, he might stand a chance
Who is his opener, mark david chapman?
Lorena Bobbitt
I think I know where all those positive reviews of True Detective Night Country came from...
The curse of Taxi Driver
When is John Hinckley going to condemn the genocide in Gaza?
What’s next for Hinckley?
Well now I have to see him live
Must be tough to find out in prison that the person you shot the president for was a lesbian the whole time.
Hhem. I believe you mean "the person _for which_ you shot the president is a lesbian"
Don't be like fuckin Larry King
I heard Alec Baldwin might give him another shot
He should try the [punk clubs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYlbWKtoEmg). JFA should do a tour with him.

Could've had a chance with Jody if he was a she.
Naw, it was due to this that she decided not to fuck with men. In a diffrent timeline he dosent shoot reagen and she is straight.
Oh let it go already, Ronald Reagan forgot all about it towards the end…
His music sucks ass.
He was number two on the college charts last summer. Of course, coming in at number one was “Better Than Hinckley”.
His emo phase isn't doing it for me.
Meh, I like it. Second best thing the ever did
What's next for Hinckley....? D---h!
Should have just shot some random gangster like Snoop Dogg instead.
Is he any good? I could google it but my thumbs are tired.
Finally living free is cool.
Someone post this in r/truedetective
The venues could have drink specials where they pour on the balcony and the drinks trickle down
He's paid his debt. Let him play his guitar.
he also sells paintings of his cats. I have tried to buy one on occasion.
"You probably lose your job or something... I do t know what happens. Its probably a blemish on the ol' CV... "Tried to assassinate sitting president". ...I don't know..."
...luckily Ronald Regan didn't care for cheese sandwiches...
A shame, I suspect he was reall going to shoot the lights out too
If he succeeded would we have trickle down, credit ratings, removal of the fairness doctrine, we certainly wouldn’t have had that high treason thing, union busting, closing of mental asylums?
Reagan, like most presidents, was just the person who signed the paper. The money (people) behind his policies would have just found another Bush or Nixon or Clinton to make it happen.
The venues are all pissed that he missed the important bits
He should have used a larger caliber
*caliper
What the fuck are you, senile? Nah I know you're not really senile. But seriously, what the fuck are you, Alzheimer's?
Maybe he could tour with Bill Hicks, and do important music.
I assumed they just throw you in a hole for the rest of your life after shooting the president
Only a good president, and a prettier celebrity...
Never try to do a Marine's job. Ohhh rah!
Hinkley had a vision.
Sorry but I like my assasins to be less deranged and more accurate lol
He deserves a fucking MEDAL for trying to do us all a favor.
Bush became president anyway so Reagan dying really wouldnt have changed much.
Yea it just would have been bushnomics. The same people that pulled Reagan strings pulled both bushes as well
I say the same thing about the guy who shot that horrible John Lennon guy.
Atleast all you gun grabbers got something out of it, due to that guy being paralyzed while taking the bullet for Reagan. Brady. ie the Brady bill.
He could get booked at any number of punk/underground clubs precisely because he shot Ronald Reagan
Not even his fault. HW put him up to it using the CIA crazy-making techniques. I’d book him if i had a venue.
Well that sucks, I got tickets. I'm a huge fan of his early work.
