JFK Assaination

you know what they say- everyone loves a conspiracy.
i think some people simply want it to be some sort of government conspiracy, not because its neccesarily true, but becuase that is more exciting than a sraight-up assassinatin with no secrets of cover-ups

No, I'd much rather it be all Oswald's fault. There is simply to much evidence to the contrary to ignore.

I'd like to think of it as a singular event without any surrounding shadiness, but the deaths of JFK, MLK, RFK, and later Paul Wellstone and JFK Jr. all point to something a little more sinister IMO.... However, it could be coincidence... I just have a little less trouble ruling coincidence out than conspiracy when all these people end up dead, their common thread being that they're all on the "left" end of the political spectrum.

But what sticks out like a splinter is how Ted is still alive... That keeps coincidence open for me

for Osawld to crack off 3 rounds in the time the shooting happened if nearly physicaly impossible. to shoot with a bolt action that quickly is basicly impossible, reolading would take too long. i do however think the "magic bullet" theory is a crock of shit

seeing how so many people died that had connections, leads to conspiracy.

I believe it was a foreign intelligence agency, not the KGB though, I highly doubt they'd do something as bald as that

Though it depends.... if he was an absolute crack shot with that rifle, and it had a magazine, where he could just cycle the bolt without having to manually place in another round, perhaps he could pull off 3 shots in 8 seconds, but to score a neck shot and a headshot in that short amount of time? Ehh... I'd be unsurprised if there was another shooter.

point is hitting a moving target a couple of times in that short amount of time is extremly hard, and with a bolt rifle...........well all shots must be one in a million or maybe he had help of the force

i think if he had the ability to get his hands onto something that could be semi auto/auto he wouldn't have just shot JFK, he would have just blown away everyone in the car. irrelevent of the type of gun, it was going to be pretty obvious that the president had been shot, had he had something that could fire rapidly he would have shot the presidents wife and every other person in that car.
the whole "accuracy" debate is the same debate with the Port Auther massacre in aus, the "facts" try to tell us someone who had no real shooting experiance shot a cafe full of people (all head shots by the way) in a matter of seconds, all shooting done from the hip. i dont think theres many people in the world that could take out the number they try to tell us Martin Bryant did

please.. there was a documentary (Ive got it in DVD 😊 ) about it, and they experimented it, they called non proffesionals shooters, they used the same rifle, and one of them was able to do it, I forgot in how long but it was a shorter time than oswald

ppl just face the facts, it makes no sense what oswelt did... I highly doubt he did it anyway.. i think he was there for a purpose, to cover whoever really did it

Yes the fact that JFK, his brother and MLK were all assasinated during that brief period points to something fishy.

I still think that it was higher ups in the government/military. Who else could cover things up for so long or shut down the investigations so quick?

I think a conspiracy did happen. I've also heard something very interesting about JFK.
He apparantly wrote some documents that he had sealed up in a highly secure vault in the early 60s and told the watchers not to open the package until approximately 40-50 years after that action.

Apparantly (this is all pure guessing, mind you) he knew something was going to happen to him, which could very much lead to the true killer.

Proof of this statement comes from the History Channel

i think jfk killed himself.

if i wuz there i'd surely dunnit 😄

interesting...

No conspiracy....Oswald did it. All you Oliver Stone's out there need to put down your DVD copies of JFK. Move on...

LBJ must have been involved.
