JFK's fatal head wound: The truth for those who want to know (very graphic)

Whether or not there was a conspiracy, the fact remains that the fatal shot came from the rear. Anyone who really wants to know the truth needs to begin by discarding the myth that the fatal head shot came from the front.

Back, and to the left.

Don't forget the Nix film that shows the reverse view and shows a better view of the spray of bloody material going forward.

"Graphic" is right.
So, the other shot, which came from the front, was non-fatal?

Here is the Nix footage:

It shows a shot from the rear better than Zapruder.

So why do the official autopsy photos only show a small wound in the back of the head and not massive trauma as you show here and the neurosurgeon at Parkland (who should know as they see trauma all the time) stated that there was a small entrance wound in the front and the large exit wound in the back?

Ping because of your interest in the subject on other threads this week.

Back and to the left because of the explosive quality of the exit wound in right front of the head. Look at the frames of the film.

[Wolfstar]

There is no shot that came from the front. The head wound was fatal. The wound in the back that exited through the president's throat may have been survivable.

Poor Jackie. No wonder she retreated to a Greek island with her children after Bobby Kennedy was shot. It's a wonder she didn't go mad.

There was no conspiracy nor was there any cover-up.

Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone nut gunman.

He used a single magic bullet.

Who could argue with any of that?

[Wolfstar]

First, it's not what I show, it's what happened. Look at the still frames from the Zapruder film. Look at the last photo posted, which is the extreme enlargement showing the head wound. Second, the official autopsy photos do not show just a small wound in the back of the head. There is a photo showing the small, round entrance wound in the back of the head, but other photos clearly show the damage to the right side of the president's head. No point arguing with me. The truth is right in front of you. If you want to remain blind to it, that's your problem.

The wound in the back that exited through the president's throat may have been survivable.

Mrs. Kennedy was tortured with regret that she had been looking the wrong way (left) when the first shot hit - she felt she might have saved him if she had quickly taken his body into her lap. The back brace he wore also served to keep him more upright, and a better target. A tragedy so horrible.

[Wolfstar]

It's a wonder she didn't go mad.

Indeed. That she was able to lead a reasonably normal life and raise her kids so well after what happened is a tribute to her strength of character.

Not arguing with you. Just asking a simple question, regarding the evaluation of all twelve physicians including numerous neurosurgeons who cared for Kennedy at Parkland. I looked at the pictures and I see what you are saying. The only autopsy photos I have seen did not show the extensive damage, but only showed a small wound in the back of the head and I have watched all the shows that have been on this week on the history channel and other channels. There may be other autopsy photos that do show more damage, but I have not seen them.

He used a single magic bullet.

No, actually, he didn't. There were three verified shots fired. One that missed, one that hit the president in the back and exited through his throat, and one that hit the president in the head.

The only thing I am trying to do with this thread is demonstrate the truth about the fatal head shot clearly for those whose minds are open to the truth. I do not argue for or against any conspiracy theory — only that those who believe a conspiracy existed should at least not twist the truth about the fatal head shot. It came from the rear and took out pretty much all of the upper right side of the president's head.

A well-meant conspiracy theory will try to make the theory fit the facts, not the other way around.

"He used a single magic bullet. "

Have you ever had a lucky shot or two?

I have - it amazed me. And I used to be a pretty good shot (20-30 years ago) rifle, pistol, shotgun.

My theory - Oswald got lucky. Never mind his Marine shooting training which provided a base (a damn good one) for him to build from.

Warren was right. Not perfect - right.
