I’m not a fan of wild conspiracy theories. So except for one thing, I would have gone with your belief.

That one thing is Jack Ruby. Ruby was not just some plumber or school teacher. He was a nightclub owner with ties to organized crime, and he silences Oswald forever. That sure does point to a conspiracy.

I never believed that cock-and-bull story about Ruby being grief-stricken over JFK’s death. It was an obvious hit.

LBJ had the strongest motive, Ruby had mob friends, but the actual timeline and facts of what happened prove that Oswald acted alone. For instance, Oswald forgot a garment and went back to get it, or else he would have been out of the building before Ruby arrived.

True. Ruby doesn’t suggest conspiracy it screams it. Ruby, a strip club owner, sacrificed his life for Jackie Kennedy? Sure...

Look up the recent book “The Kosher Capones”. It includes some discussion of Ruby’s involvement with the Jewish faction of Chicago organized crime, including the real reason why he left Chicago.

Bear in mind that prior to going to the Dallas police station, Ruby went to a Western Union office to wire money to a dancer who worked in one of his clubs. If Ruby was in on a conspiracy and was sent to kill Oswald, his window of opportunity was very narrow. Why would he risk screwing up the delicate timing of it by taking a chance on getting tied up at the Western Union office just before that?
