  1. Man white guy shoots President of US, injures two more and leaves one paralyzed – serves 40 years in a mental hospital and is let go. Black man runs from police and is shot in the back 60 times. Case one. Incredible

  2. He lived to tell the tale. I promise the other mass shooters who are alive will be freed into society again over “insanity” lol

  3. ABC sinks to a new low in non reporting and instead providing an agenda to the unwashed. Would be nice if the major media really reported the news instead of being involved in it.

  4. *Not condoning this man, rather pointing out what could have happened.

    This guy almost ended the terror of Ronald Regan, before his "Reganomics" could cause the decline of the United States. In an alternate universe Regan is dead, this guy is in prison(most likely the death penalty), and The United States prospered.

  5. Let's just say if you're in America you can kill somebody and get away with it just do a little bit of time America needs to go back to public hangings s*** would not happen let me kill your family member and get out of jail

  6. The fact he says he does not really need to take his medications is an issue in itself. Mental illness disorders as severe as his is not curable, but manageable and controllable, but only if medication is taken for the rest of their life. He should've never been released.

  7. I remember the day when Reagan was shot. I was in college and I had no idea that some 41 years later I'd be watching the shooter out free and giving interviews on YouTube….

  8. If me or anyone can’t or doesn’t forgive him God will not forgive you .

  9. He is so full of crap. Can't reme,ber, or doesn't care about the names of officer Thomas Delahanty who was shot in the neck and security agent Timothy J. McCarthy shot in the stomach. Only Reagan. Brady, and Foster. And yet he walks among us…..

  10. Washington DC swamp let’s him out because the left establishment loves those that go after Republicans…there’s no way this guy should be out.

  11. If his parents weren’t hooked up with the GOP, he would’ve got life without parole!!!

  12. Okay, this was about as insecure as it gets. If he did this because he were truly mentally ill, he would STILL be mentally ill. He said he still takes his medications "even though I don't have to". If he is mentally ill, then he has to. I think he is absolutely still dangerous. And I believe that way back when he should have been put in prison for life without the posibility of parole. My heart goes out to Jim Brady, who suffered for years before finally passing away due to his gun shot wound.

  13. It's not curable, it's treatable. I do believe this man is contrite but he has to continue his meds and he can't become complacent in his life.

  14. technically speaking every 10 year every single molecule on our body is new. So he is no the same person anymore.

  15. the fact that he thinks he can pay back his debt to society through his music and art, is a clear sign that he is still delusional and a danger to society.

  16. “Even though I don’t have to, I still take my meds.” So now he’s a drug addict? Stop popping prescription drugs if you don’t need them my man!
