No Presidential assassin should ever see the light of day, nuts or not. Period. No murderer (those without justification) should ever see the light of day; nuts or not.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.

Now, if my rifle just happened to malfunction and put a 300 grain .375 slug through Hillary's head, and you are sitting on my parole board down the road..........

Nancy Reagan knew his release was coming and sent the following letter, before she passed in march.
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. The original version of that letter was back when Reagan was running for his 2nd term. Someone had posted it on a bulletin board at work. It was typed out on official looking White House stationary, addressed from Ronald Reagan to Hinkley. The P.S. was tipping-off Hinkley that "Fritz" Mondale was getting it on with Jodie Foster. Everyone cracked up laughing when they read the P.S., with all that being so current at the time.

There are times when the death penalty is appropriate when there is no uncertainty of guilt. Most people that kill are a bit nuts. That should not be a defense. Society needs to protect its self.

Except that Hinkley didn't kill anyone. He botched it and wounded 4 but no one died. Brady died more than 30 years later and they called that a homicide but I think that's a stretch.

Fed judge orders him released to live with his mother.
First assassin or would-be assassin of a POTUS to be released in U.S. history. Maybe someone will walk up to hinkley and drill him in the forehead with a 357 mag while carrying a paper back version of famous Regan quotes in their back pocket.
Trump Won!
