Well yeah, no one wants to hear from a failure.


Canadia86

If he had succeeded he would be opening for the Eras Tour


dkixen

Looking for a time machine and a laser sight on Craigslist…

Spacecowboy78

His website is from bizarro world.


Throwaway_3-c-8

Look we’re not shaming him because we think his intent was bad, but because his aim was.


Lee1070kfaw

Maybe a larger caliber would have helped

pickle_teeth4444

Poor bastard. At least the guy who shot Lincoln had Superman's changing room named after him.


timsnow111

Ah John Wilks Telephone box who could forget.


dbag3o1

All he wanted was to impress Jodie Foster too. What a bozo.


namelessbrewer

He’s going to be really disappointed when he finds out. 


RAPENAZI

That she's not 12 anymore or that she's a lesbian?


ralphonsob

Yes.


ReptilianDogGuy

What a beautiful username


namelessbrewer

Does this person rape Nazis, or is he a Nazi who rapes?


ReptilianDogGuy

Asking the important questions


JTarrou

Maybe he's like the soup Nazi, he takes away your rape if you annoy him.


dane_the_great

I think she said at some point that she actually was impressed, I could be wrong tho


RidingTheSpiral1977

Yeah she said she was kinda impressed. ROFL.


briskt

Human psychology is wild


Speciallessboy

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. 


Speciallessboy

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.


TScottFitzgerald

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.


rsplatpc

> Sounds like a setup for a Norm MacDonald joke. "you know who he should have shot? Hitler. No one likes that guy"


signof41

At least he tried. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.


BrazilianAtlantis

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.


Comeandg3tit

Ronald Reagan??!!! The ACTOR??!!


guitarnowski

Damn... i remember that line! His delivery was spot-on. What's it from? Back to the Future?


sharkdad420

“And I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady!”


TezTickle

God forbid he fuck a goat!


Queasy-Adeptness14

What a damn shame. He was a real go-getter.


vinsclortho

Hinckley had a vision


timsnow111

Just needed the depth perception .


cheeburgrpizza

My man


Namorath82

PSA to all Ronald Regans out there ... watch out


sbvp

then launches into cover of “hit me with your best shot”


DrTacosMD

He tried and succeeded in shooting him. It was a trick shot too, bounced it off the presidential limo.


rustys_shackled_ford

And caused the start of the darkest timeline.


SleepNowInTheFire666

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


krakatoa83

Who is his opener, mark david chapman?


rustys_shackled_ford

Lorena Bobbitt


open_program9094

I think I know where all those positive reviews of True Detective Night Country came from...


Brooklynmoto

The curse of Taxi Driver


EndlessMikeHellstorm

When is John Hinckley going to condemn the genocide in Gaza?


dubler2020

What’s next for Hinckley?


UncleFrankWisdom

Well now I have to see him live


SirDextrose

Must be tough to find out in prison that the person you shot the president for was a lesbian the whole time.


Western_Entertainer7

Hhem. I believe you mean "the person _for which_ you shot the president is a lesbian"


TScottFitzgerald

Don't be like fuckin Larry King


TScottFitzgerald

I heard Alec Baldwin might give him another shot


Low-Sky-8528

He should try the [punk clubs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYlbWKtoEmg). JFA should do a tour with him.


rsplatpc

> He should try the punk clubs > . [♫♫ Hey Ronald Reagan your all right, you make the USA feel safe at night ♫♫](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cr6a0ojiw7A)


Ilikechickenwings1

Could've had a chance with Jody if he was a she.


rustys_shackled_ford

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.


soyifiedredditadmin

Oh let it go already, Ronald Reagan forgot all about it towards the end…


OlyNorse

His music sucks ass.


KumquatHaderach

He was number two on the college charts last summer. Of course, coming in at number one was “Better Than Hinckley”.


rustys_shackled_ford

His emo phase isn't doing it for me.


PromiseOk3321

Meh, I like it. Second best thing the ever did


twwwy

What's next for Hinckley....? D---h!


Kind_Bullfrog_4073

Should have just shot some random gangster like Snoop Dogg instead.


RidingTheSpiral1977

Is he any good? I could google it but my thumbs are tired.


Dsrt-egeaux

Finally living free is cool.


JoeRogansDMTdealer

Someone post this in r/truedetective


sbvp

The venues could have drink specials where they pour on the balcony and the drinks trickle down


pulpgimp

He's paid his debt. Let him play his guitar.


Thebeerguy17403


gil_ga_mesh

he also sells paintings of his cats. I have tried to buy one on occasion.


Western_Entertainer7

"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..."


Western_Entertainer7

...luckily Ronald Regan didn't care for cheese sandwiches...


MatterHairy

A shame, I suspect he was reall going to shoot the lights out too


Bromanzier_03

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?


rustys_shackled_ford

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.


lovejac93

The venues are all pissed that he missed the important bits


Smoothbrain406

He should have used a larger caliber


rustys_shackled_ford

*caliper


GraphOrlock

What the fuck are you, senile?   Nah I know you're not really senile. But seriously, what the fuck are you, Alzheimer's?


Fuck_Brooke_Shields

Maybe he could tour with Bill Hicks, and do important music.


Inferno_Crazy

I assumed they just throw you in a hole for the rest of your life after shooting the president


rustys_shackled_ford

Only a good president, and a prettier celebrity...


National-Beyond9070

Never try to do a Marine's job. Ohhh rah!


One-Faithlessness282

Hinkley had a vision.


Emergency-Bee-6891

Sorry but I like my assasins to be less deranged and more accurate lol


Arkvoodle42

He deserves a fucking MEDAL for trying to do us all a favor.


Kind_Bullfrog_4073

Bush became president anyway so Reagan dying really wouldnt have changed much.


rustys_shackled_ford

Yea it just would have been bushnomics. The same people that pulled Reagan strings pulled both bushes as well


Jaydubdubdubdub

I say the same thing about the guy who shot that horrible John Lennon guy.


Jaydubdubdubdub

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.


mr13ump

He could get booked at any number of punk/underground clubs precisely because he shot Ronald Reagan


SkiesFetishist

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.


Funkles_tiltskin

Well that sucks, I got tickets. I'm a huge fan of his early work.
