Now I do believe that the FBI actually did it and framed Oswald in order to put their first pick LBJ in power.
I also believe the FBI is behind this coup
I was 4 days old....but Im level 57...lol
Rolling around in my dads nutsack
Married, one daughter, in Mississippi in the Air Force, shocked at the Kennedy assassination.
Ah, but I was so much older then...
I’m younger than that now
“wetting my diapers ....”
LOL...and soon to be returning to that!
We had fish sticks and cole slaw in the cafeteria that day and jonny paul vomited in gym class
Serious answer: I was a first-grader, lining up from lunchtime recess, teacher with a sad face ushered us quickly into the classroom, heard the announcement over the speaker.
JFK was a Leftist-In-Training. Teddy Kennedy shows us what JKF and RFK would have ended up like.
I was in 8th grade in New Orleans, a Protestant in a Catholic grade school, and of course a heavily Catholic area. The nuns were completely emotionally slain. The school buses quickly pulled up and everyone went home. I didn’t really get it that my Mom was crying and inconsolable—I questioned it and she thought I was an emotionless little $hit. Maybe so; I still have all the newspaper clippings. The Times-Picayune had lots of info on Oswald and his Mom since they were Orleanians. Not to get into the whole conspiracy thing, but later in life I stood directly under “the window” of the School Book Depository, looked at the marker down the street, and thought “this was just NOT a tough shot”, especially with a scope, I don’t care what other “experts” have said. I qualified expert while in the USAF.
Learning to walk and wolfing down the Gerber.
Ok, so you meant 57! American history class, junior year of high school, large multicultural public urban high school. A class of ‘64 clown, who had a dark sense of humor, entered our classroom in the middle of the class and announced that the president had been shot. The first reaction was that none of us believed him. School was dismissed early. The bus stops and buses were filled with crying students, as were all the pedestrian routes home.
Get a grip!
Get a grip!
75 years ago, I was posting on FR after reading Abraham Lincoln’s tweet of not believing everything on the internet.
You were at MHS too?
My Dad didn't think too highly of JFK.
GHWB was chair of Harris County TX GOP and running for US Senate seat in Nov 1964. He had no govt experience except as a Navy pilot.
Measure once cut once then go to Home Depot for another piece...what usually happens to me.😀
I had recently completed an enlistment in the Navy and was busy wiring a house on LI. I had a transistor radio on and was shocked by the news. Within minutes about a dozen workers gathered around my radio, we never went back to work that day and spent the rest of the afternoon in a bar. My mom had commented earlier that day that she felt JFK wasn’t safe in going to Dallas that day. What a time it was.
