I don’t know who or how, I just don’t think a loser like Oswald could have pulled it off without help from someone.
I also have such a low opinion of LBJ that I wouldn’t put it past him to have been involved.
It was the only way LBJ was ever going to make it to the presidency and I think he was the kind of person who would kill to get there.
Yeah, it's not like lonely, bitter losers turn out to be assassins. Well, except Charles Guiteau. And Leon Czoglocz. And Mark David Chapman. And Sirhan Sirhan. And James Earl Ray. And Sara Jane Moore, Squeaky Fromme and John Hinckley, who tried and failed.
Come to think of it, only one of our asassinated presidents was killed by someone who was not a loser -- John Wilkes Booth was a star of his day. And his assasination plot is also the only one that was a well-established conspiracy, albeit a mostly botched one.
"I just don't think a loser like Oswald could have pulled it off" is like the belief of the Kennedys that they can engage in risky behavior without serious risk; it is a belief at odds with an overwhelming weight of evidence.
I also have such a low opinion of LBJ that I wouldn’t put it past him to have been involved.
"He's a bad enough guy to do it" is not evidence that he did it.
In other words don’t let the facts stand in the way, “LBJ’s fault”. See post 250. You fit the profile.
Free Republic is now the mirror image of the Democratic Underground.
Kennedy had enough enemies; with out reading some people’s phobias and turning to name calling because they can’t quite muster a valid challenge to the argument.
RFK as AG; busted the mafia bad; Cold War was going on at the time, Bay of Pigs Fiasco and Castro but JFK on the bad side of both sides, doubts on LBJ too.
And all of those documents “locked up” for so much time; does not allow people to further “prove” a theory and indeed adds to further suspicion.
What about the event makes you think he couldn’t have pulled it off alone. It doesn’t really take much to stick a rifle out of a window and fire off 3 shots, run, and then to kill a police officer once found.
