Talk about your Rorschach test!
A disturbed nutball takes a shot at a candidate and the whole world is losing its mind looking for a "motive".
Hinkley shot Reagan to impress Jodie Foster. Fromme shot at Ford because she was "not determined to kill him."
Since no motive can be ascribed we simply paint the void with what's in our head. FBI chief called the shots an "attack on democracy." Similar hysteria rages on TV.
We say that now when we didn't say that before. There's a reason for that.

We all know why. We just don't say why. It's not good for ratings or agendas.
