JFK -- 50 years later

[gomper]

So many ways to respond but I'll be classy. You know nothing about comedy or performance. I'll leave it at that. Oh yeah, I guess Oswald did it right?

Bring it on.

So, Oswald who spent time in Russia and was spotted in Cuba, and was known to US intelligence officials, happens to find himself with a job overlooking JFK's motorcade route? Wow. That's an amazing coincidence.

Kennedy was trying to kill Castro! Maybe Castro got him first.

I thought the same thing, until I looked up how Oswald got the job............There's no way this whole thing could have been a set up:

Amazing because.....in a several mile long motorcade through the heart of downtown Dallas (and several other cities that week) that was the only building they drove past?

So in the transcript of the conversation the questioner is Allen Dulles of the Warren Commission? Maybe this wasn't really what she told them.

What the !@#$ does that have to do with how he ended up the TSBD?

What if it had kept raining and they had the bubble top on. Foiled again!

Either God or the Farmers' Almanac must have been in on the conspiracy too.

What I'm saying is the explanation of how Oswald got the job is a very concise, neat tale that puts a bow on it. Total Bullsh**, but a nice tale nonetheless. If you actually believe that Oswald pulled this off of his own accord, then you might as well leave your head in the sand.

I watched this PBS show on the assassination: http://video.pbs.org/video/2365118537/ I think this has a lot of evidence to support Oswald could get off these shots and do the damage they did. They go into great detail about the gun, the barrel of the gun and the entry-and-exit wounds the rifle could create, all similar to the wounds Connally and Kennedy suffered (Single Bullet Theory).

 

As a teenager I read some of the conspiracy books and believed it was possible. Now, as I'm older, I'm more convinced Oswald was the lone shooter. It's not as sexy to think there was no cover-up or conspiracy; this was a radical man who killed two people (JFK, JD Tippit) and seriously wounded a third (Connally) on that day. Just my opinion.

IMO him trying to seek asylum in Russia is a better indicator that he acted alone than any conspiracy to the contrary

Jackie had him done for boinking Ms. Monroe.
