On March 30, 1981, Ronald Reagan was shot during an assassination attempt by John Hinckley Jr in Washington, DC.

‘Hinckley was a crazy lone nut’ is the common explanation for the assassination but there are a ton of very strange facts about the Reagan assassination attempt, most of which have been buried and forgotten about over the years.

The Hinckleys and the family of VP George Bush knew each other — they were both rich Texas oil families — and John Hinckley Sr. served as board president of World Vision, an organization that is notorious for its links to the CIA and military intelligence.

There were even rumors of a second shooter, similar to the JFK assassination.
