What a huge loss to the world! Such a musical talent! Hope the murderer rots forever!

I understand why some people took offense to what he said about Jesus, but I know he was just trying to describe how popular the Beatles were. No matter what, that's no reason to kill someone!
Elizabeth Hackett
This always brings tears to my eyes. He was a great songwriter.

so sorry to see you name that lowlife. all John fans made a vow never to name him and thus deny him his fame

That’s not what he said; he said people would
rather watch them in concert than go to church . He never mentioned Jesus.

A great loss to a lot of us. What an awesome songwriter and musician, an icon to our generation.

I was watching Monday Night Football in Plano, Texas, the night that Howard Cosell made the tragic and shocking announcement to the world.

Player #103085923, it was John Hinkly, Jr. That was trying to impress Jodi Foster with the attempted assassination of Former President Ronald Reagan.

To me he should have gotten life without parole. Or the death penalty. This was premeditated murder. He planned it for a long time. John Lennon was one of my heroes. I watched the Beatles when they first came to the U. S. And was on the Ed Sullivan Show. It was so awesome. Lennon was outspoken for his beliefs. And in America we have a voice to express what we believe. And he did. But that was no reason for him to die in the manner he did. R.I.P. Mr. John Lennon. We miss you everyday. But your incredible music will live on.

Player #52878863, Your very right !!! They should have NEVER let him out of the mental institution !!! That trial with botched like a lot of them !!! he was just saying as a normal person. Well, not really, but he wasn’t insane he knew of his actions … A bad District attorney and judge gave him a free pass … Anybody that love John Lennon justice was not served that day !!!

Paul Mendes

Western, Hey Western: CHAPMAN. CHAPMAN CHAPMAN

Zappo, he’s still in jail. Denied parole for the 12th time in 2022

Elizabeth Hackett, along with Paul McCartney of course. I think that is the best songwriting team of my lifetime, closely followed by Benny Andersson & Bjorn Ulvaeus. Who he displaced from the number 1 spot after his untimely death.
PDee
It's his last photo and his killer is in it with him.

Yet again..poor Americanism : NoT Lennon's last Photograph.
The last Photograph taken OF John Lennon .

I DIDNT AGREE WITH SOME OF LENNONS VIEWS, BUT I WOULNT HAVE DONE SOMETHING LIKE THAT. CHAPMAN SAID HE WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME TO DAVID BOWIE. THAT GUY WAS CRAZY!

when Oscar wrote about the pen's being mightier than the sword, the effect of the sword is no less devastating, than you'd also expect.

Donna, it was John Hinckley jr that shot Ronald Reagan in order to gain Jodie Foster's attention, not Chapman.
Player #52878863
that's Lennon's murderer in the pic getting his autograph, I believe
Byrde Alpha Bitch
That assassin is a waste of space and air IMO
Donna
The killer Chapman is no longer in jail. His reason for the killing is that he wanted to attract actress Jodie Foster!!!
Donna
drummerboy75, his murderer is out of jail now

# Sandy1956 #, In an interview, one of the Beatles did say they were more popular than Jesus, although that's not why the murderer shot him. Chapman had changed his own name to John Lennon, found a Japanese bride, claimed there could be only one John Lennon (himself), and said he couldn't wait to tell his friends what he'd done.

Player #23354161, I totally agree wit you
Western
Why do you have this question here mentioning Lennon’s murderer? There is a ban on ever mentioning his name in print. Shame on you.
