Jodie's Fault

I have often thought how the slightest change in circumstances might have changed the course of history, (and no one would have been the wiser for it).

Take Jodie Foster, for instance.

(Yes, Jodie Foster).

It was, after all, her fault.

You remember John Hinckley’s fascination with this actress, and how he claimed to have done what he did because of his great love for her.

Who can forget the assassination attempt on the life of President Ronald Reagan, and the wounding of three others attending him that day?

Thankfully, all four men lived, but experienced various degrees of incapacitation, as the result of the assassination attempt.

Yep. It was Jodie’s fault.

If she had only “come out” prior to 2013, and made it altogether clear that she possessed a preference for her own gender, Hinckley would, no doubt, have entertained other thoughts and ambitions.

Well, to be sure, this is not a “throw off” on the homosexual agenda, (although I neither understand that desire, nor believe it is preferable, nor biblical). As a student of history, when it is “all said and done” this is simply a reflection on what might or might not have been.

And to be fair to Jodie, if she had not been the object of Hinckley’s obsession, he might just as well have chosen Angelina J. or Britney S.
