I used to believe in all the conspiracies too. But the truth of the matter is Oswald was an angry loner who wanted attention. The one other success in his life , if you will, besides shooting and killing the President Of The United Sates, wounding the Governor of Texas and shooting and killing Dallas police officer J.D. Tippitt was that he became a United States Marine. You don’t become a United Sates Marine unless you can pick up that weapon and hit that target. Not ‘’close enough’’, no “Maggies Drawers’’, you have to hit that target dead on or it’s “Son, you might want to try the Army’’. Oswald did hit the target, he did earn the Globe And Anchor. So for that six or seven seconds in that sixth floor window he picked up that weapon and he hit the target. He didn’t need any help. Jack Ruby? One pissed off, angry America who took the law into his own hands.

Yep.

People get caught up in conspiracies because it just doesn't seem "right" or "plausible" that Oswald could have done it.

Oswald was in Mexico to get a Cuban passport. He was refused. This lifelong dream of his was the final straw.

His family had left him, his dream of a Cuban paradise was taken away.

He was a pathetic little Commie loser in everything in life.

He was going to show the world what a "pathetic man" can do.

Sorry to disappoint, but it's the truth.

People ask who "benefited" from the JFK assassination.

LBJ certainly did.

Oswald did too.

It doesn't matter to me whether Oswald could have done it or not. The fact is he had nothing to do with it. One of the shooters from the Dal-Tex building, Jim Braden, was detained then released on orders from on high. There is evidence of four shots (although many more were shot that day) and the House Committee got it right, Kennedy was hit almost simultaneously from the front and the back after the shot to his shoulder. Chip on curve, bullet into upper trim of car, shot to back, shot to head, that's a minimum of four shots. There were more than that of course. Shot to pavement under Braden's position as the car made it's final tight turn, and of course the other shot to the head. Minimum six shots right there. They set up a crossfire.

Don't forget the final word from the government, from the House Committee on Assassinations, is it was a conspiracy. Everybody in the know knows it was a conspiracy, that's why they set up the committee to say so, they didn't want to look like magic bullet idiots throughout history.
