The papal assassination attempt happened in St. Peter's Square on May 13th, 1981. The pope was shot four times, and lived to forgive his potential assassin and visit him in prison.
On that moving occasion, Ali Agca knelt and kissed the Fisherman’s ring in a sign of respect; he did not ask for forgiveness. Instead, he said, “I know I was aiming right. I know that the bullet was a killer, So why aren’t you dead?”
