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.”

I still remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when the news of JFK assassination was announced over the intercom in our engineering office.

But I do not remember what I had for breakfast this morning.

Moreover, the bullet that blew JFK’s head apart was a frangible round. Not like the “magic bullet” slug that Oswald fired and stayed intact after going through JFK’s neck,a seat back, and Connelly’s back.

Dallas was LBJ’s backyard.

And he had a history of having rivals bumped off.

Speaking of communism, I want everyone to read this....This is what universities are teaching kids today...This is a response from a college student I was debating today about communism. I’ve had this kind of response before several times from other students. Karl Marx it seems is their God.

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.

57 years after a communist castro lover who had defected to the USSR killed Kennedy

Read this:

(Click on cover image to go to Amazon.)

I was 17 years old when Kennedy was killed. I was always interested in but ambivalent about all the conspiracy theories. I guess I continued to believe the Warren Commission UNTIL I READ THIS BOOK!

The Dallas PD is said to have arrested the only American who doesn't remember where he was when JFK was assassinated.

There is a photo that looks quite like him standing on the sidewalk in front of the book depository...

The government wants to disarm us after 244 yrs 'cuz they plan to do things we would shoot them for!

At no point in history has any government ever wanted its people to be defenseless for any good reason ~ nully's son

It says in that article.

"...some material will still be kept from the public due to “identifiable national security, law enforcement, and foreign affairs concerns,..."

What people need to understand is that all kinds of things were categorized as JFK records. Any off-shoot tangent, of any of the multiple massive convoluted investigations was looped in as a JFK record even if it had nothing to do with the assassination in the end. Just because a file is within this collection doesn't mean it is actually about the assassination, and it could contain sensitive material about other things.

There's nothing in these files that is going to mean anything. People have seen them.

I wrote the first book on JFK’s assassination. It’s all in code in my 1st grade coloring book but I laid the whole deal out.
I’d elaborate but I signed an NDA with Efren Zimbalist Jr

"THOUSANDS is not a handful"

Compared to the vast quantity that were categorized as JFK records and have already been released, it is. Besides, I don't know that there are thousands.

I’ve had two such events in my life. I don’t want a third.

If Trump prevails in court...

...we're likely to find out exactly what they meant when they said "by any means necessary".

Just pray for Trump, please?

Stationed in DC in the USAF, between '62 & '66, Sharon and I made our way to the Memorial Bridge the day of JFK's funeral. Shot this as the cortege rolled past. Those muffled drums and Chopin's Funeral March STILL ring in my ears to this day. I've been a conservative republican (small "r") all my life but understand that JFK, Humphrey & Georgia' Larry McDonald were probably the LAST Democrats to love their country. God save us from the current crop(or is that CRAP?).

Who wants to look at a bunch of corpse photos? No one “needs” to see those. The ones out there are bad enough.

And the rest are probably transcripts of calls that don’t matter anymore either.

A family friend was the terrifyingly accurate sniper for the MSP.

He was not military.

He grew up hunting squirrels with a .22 in the mountains.

He was terrifyingly accurate at that, as well.
