Hinckley, who shot Reagan in 1981 during the president's first term, has turned a new corner since being granted his freedom. Hinckley has begun focusing on music and creative pursuits. He has now been given an opportunity to perform live in New York City's Market Hotel.

A federal judge ruled last year that Hinckley can be released without restrictions in 2022, more than 40 years after he shot Reagan in 1981.

Hinckley was committed to St. Elizabeth's Hospital for more than 34 years before he was released under certain restrictions in 2016.

"If he hadn’t tried to kill a president he would have been released unconditionally a long time ago," U.S. District Court Judge Paul Friedman said.

The best move would be to simply ignore him.

Poor Jim Brady. I hope he sings about him.

Brady's death in 2014 was eventually ruled a homicide, caused by the gunshot wound he received 33 years earlier.[2]

But Louis CK is the real monster who never should be allowed onstage ever again.

Yep. No outrage, no audience, just quiet obscurity until death.

The Democrats should see if they could turn it into a fundraiser. They do approve his message.

Hell, I bet Hillary tried to kill Bill plenty of times and she's never done any time.

Little known...Hinckley has been out on temporary paroles with parents for decades. He then returns to prison and goes out again. This 'freedom' just means he doesn't have to check back in anymore.

Normally, I would hate the guy. But a gotta feel sorry for someone who fell in love that hard and then found out she was a lesbian.

Right up there with, “Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?”

Fun fact: John Hinckley’s parents were old family friends of Poppy and Barbara Bush. The Hinckley family were in the energy exploration business and had contributed to the Bush family’s election campaigns for various political offices.

Yet another “coincidence.”
