“The best marksmen in the world couldn’t make the shots that Oswald supposedly made on Kennedy. That was proven long ago. Plus Oswald was using a POS Mannlicher-Carcano rifle isn’t that accurate.”

I’ve stood under the Sixth floor window and then looked down the street at the place where JFK was first hit — it’s an easy shot, and even easier with a scope. Have you even been there?

Sheesh.

That shot with a rifle, and a scope, and sitting with the rifle resting, and a short distance, and a “stationary target” (target moving AWAY FROM or TOWARD YOU, as opposed to left to right) I could do with no hands and no feet. I trained on the exact same range as did Lee, so I know he could do it too.

Yes, I've been there several times. What has always struck me about Dealey Plaza; what a good place to ambush someone, there is high ground all around.

I don't know who was responsible; the mafia, Fidel, LBJ, the CIA, the bankers or Oswald.

The truth will not been known for a long long time

Fact: Those shots have never been duplicated in the 6,7 second timeframe on a moving target; the FBI tried for years.

Especially given that Oswald “used” an $18 rifle with a misaligned scope.

Sorry, those are facts.

A few months after the assassination I watched a film where a person in a tower, using the same weapon, shot into an open car simulating the Kennedy car going at the same speed,direction and distance.
He had no trouble making the shots, and easily made them in the time period attributed to Oswald. -Tom

No it's not an "Easy" shot, even with a scope, due to the fact the target was moving.

Even for experts, moving targets are always difficult when attempting to place near perfect shots. Throw in the stress of attempting to shoot a US president, actually ID'ing the target in a short time window, with the big thing on your mind being, "Escape" etc.

To be honest with you, I believe very little of the governments version of this event. ,
