*It is impossible to believe that Kerry did not hear about this. Removing my tinfoil hat for a moment, it is reasonable to believe that those involved considered this a moment of blowing off steam, and that no actual plans were ever made.

**I can agree with you.

I can't.

No one describes the VVAW's Kansas City meeting as "blowing off steam," they changed locations after learning the original meeting place was bugged, they put the assassination plot up for a vote, and Camill admits to the plot.

Good point.

Just trying to bend over backwards to see this in the best light.

It doesn't appear there IS a "best light". Every mitigating factor we come up with seems to be countered by an unpleasant point of fact.

Absolutely. According to Randy Barnes, everybody knew that the discussion in that hall "was grounds for criminal indictment of conspiracy."

Also remember that Terry Dubose was ASSIGNED to assassinate John Towers (by his own admission). He never said whether they told him not to. Dubose seems to have not done it and quit the VVAW on his own.
