I didn't like his music or politics much, but he seemed like an OK guy and he was friendly to the folks he met and talked to and he was great to his fans. Its a shame that some no name bastard shot him just for his fame. Rest in peace John.

I put this in the backroom because I'm sure there might be some discussion on his politics or fame worship in general.
The guy actually claimed that 'God' instructed him. Also, there are theories abound saying that John Lennon's murder (or assassination) was a result of a conspiracy.

One good point is that Chapman met Lennon about 6 hours earlier and asked for an autograph but he didn't kill him.
