JFK assassinated 57 years ago – here are the shocking news videos and pics from that day

On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was riding in his open-top motorcade in Dealey Plaza, in Dallas, Texas when he was struck by multiple gunshots and killed.

Former U.S. Marine Lee Harvey Oswald was believed, by the prevailing accounts, to have been responsible for firing the shots from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository Building, which struck Kennedy in the neck and head as his motorcade passed through the plaza at 12:30 p.m. that day. According to History.com, Oswald is believed to have fired three shots, with two hitting and fatally wounding Kennedy and another shot hitting and wounding then-Texas Governor John Connally. Oswald was arrested in connection with the assassination but was shot and killed two days later.

The shots that killed Kennedy were caught on film and the shocking footage has seen decades of speculation and conspiracy theories about what truly happened that day. Witness Abraham Zapruder captured some of the closest footage of the shooting, in what would come to be known as the “Zapruder Film.”

It’s civilian equivalent, .223 Remington certainly did. And the idea that the 6.5 carcano, especially using it’s standard projectile, is a SCHV cartridge, is completely wrong.

It is not that far of a shot.

There are no shocking news videos and pics from that day.

It doesn't say "shocking NEW videos and pics" it says "shocking NEWS videos and pics."

See the difference?

The AR-15 was being demonstrated to the military, in .223 remington, in 1959.

Every Communist says that.

Of course every Communist carried and quoted Mao’s Little Red Book (including the Black Panthers who wrote tracts encouraging youths to KILL their parents).

Western Communists love Castro, Che, Ho Chi Min, Hugo Chavez, and Nelson Mandela (good friend to Castro, Gaddafi, and Arafat).

My goodness... If you’re talking about Stalin, he was not a communist. So far communism has never been applied in a country. So-called communist countries are only dictatored capitalist countries. Go and read Karl Marx and you’ll understand.

LOL, reminds me of the classic Reagan quote: “How do you tell a Communist? Well, it’s someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It’s someone who understands Marx and Lenin.”

Lol, Gen. Curtis LeMay demoed the gun at a 4th of July picnic, and ordered 80,000.

Paul Krassner wrote about LBJ on the flight with JFK’s body. It was published in The Realist as being an article allegedly including passages that were omitted from Jackie Kennedy’s memoirs.

Dear God, I remember that day in 1963, and the next 3-4 days afterward, I was in freshman yr of HS. Had just received my Eagle Scout Rank, signed by JFK, Honorary BSA Chairman, on Nov 20th. School dismissed for the day at 1:30pm ET.

Idiot. Or maybe you are a Jack Rubenstein apologist.

Booth’s conspirators tried to kill Seward.

And you think Czolgosz acted alone? He just found that nice new pistol on the street?

At the time on a suspicion, start a war or not?

As time passed, less and less

I've seen all that I need to see of it from day one when I was in fourth grade in Johnson School.   AS I said, there no shocking news videos from that day.   Only a kid nowadays who cares nothing for history might be shocked about this.   Give it up the lies! Oswald shot Kennedy.

The Commie did it. The Left so wanted it to be a “Right Wing Conspiracy”.

Funny how they don’t talk about Reagan’s attempted assassination, although I could argue there’s a much more convincing case for a Conspiracy there.

Marcello later tells Ragano, “When you see Jimmy (Hoffa), you tell him he owes me, and he owes me big.” After JFK’s death, Marcello has enough “dirt” on Lyndon Johnson to make the new President forget about investigating anything that might lead to Carlos Marcello’s involvement in the assassination.

Who the heck is Jack Rubenstein?

As for Booth.   Who broke his leg when he fled and was killed in a barn?   As for Czolgosz how old does a gun need to be before you don't think it is "new" or that just another socialist/anarchist couldn't have the devices to obtain a gun in the wide open days of the "fin de siècle?"

I kept that photo. It was on the cover of the NY Daily News. They did a 25th anniversary edition too. Lady Bird looked sad. Making Jackie watch was cruel.
