Nancy Reagan's letter of forgiveness
We could all learn so much from this elegant and gracious lady.
You might recall that John Hinckley was a seriously deranged young man
who shot President Reagan in the early 1980's.
Hinckley was absolutely obsessed with movie star Jodie Foster, and in
his twisted mind, loved Jodie to the point that to make himself well
known to her, he attempted to assassinate President Reagan.
There is speculation Hinckley may soon be released as having been
rehabilitated. Consequently, you will appreciate the following letter from Nancy
Reagan 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 country's spirit of understanding and forgiveness, we want you
to know that we bear no grudge against you for shooting President Reagan.
We are fully aware that mental stress and pain could have driven you
to such an act of desperation. We're confident that you will soon make a
complete recovery and return to your family to join the world again as
a healthy and productive man.
Best wishes,
Nancy Reagan & Family
PS. While you have been incarcerated, Australian Prime Minister, Kevin
Rudd has been having a passionate affair with Jodie Foster. You might
want to look into that.
