In a warped way to woo a famous lesbian actress to become his girlfriend, John Hinckley Jr. shot President Reagan in an assassination attempt. Also shot was Press Secretary James Brady, who suffered a brain injury due to a gunshot wound to the head. That helped create the anti 2nd Amendment group called the Brady Campaign, responsible for the background check hoops we have to jump through to exercise the Constitutional Right to acquire a firearm. So in honor of the anniversary, I offer this good old joke:
Q: What is Ronald Reagan's favorite vegetable?
A: James Brady
James Brady said he has half a mind to support gun control.
