Bobby Kennedy’s son thinks he was killed by a second shooter. Is there anything to it?
The Boston Globe ^ | 5/31/2018 | Nik DeCosta-Klipa

Conspiracies surrounding President John F. Kennedy’s death may be most widely circulated. However, one theory questioning our understanding of Robert F. Kennedy’s murder in 1968 has arguably gained more recent traction, including from those closest to the assassination and even one immediate member of Kennedy’s family.

According to the Post, Kennedy’s second oldest son now believes, after months of research, that his father was killed by a second gunman.

“What Bobby Kennedy Jr. has done, he’s launched a whole new generation of conspiracy nuts who are going to believe that Sirhan didn’t do it and that somebody else did,” he said.

Bobby Kennedy Jr. is a crack-pot.

Now, if one of Bobby Senior's more intelligent kids was raising doubts about who shot him, I might listen...

Oh, wait...

...

Never mind.

Sirhan Sirhan’s legal team fought a losing battle to keep them from tearing down the Ambassador Hotel in hopes of someday finding evidence of this.

“Oswald’s Ghost”

That would be a good name for a band.

The police dug out 10 bullets from the area of the shooting. How many 10 shooter guns do you have?

The Kennedys have always been frustrated that John was killed by a communist and Robert by a radical Islamist. Not the kind of assassins they would have wanted

‘Oswalds’ ghost did it.’

of that there can be no doubt...and our resident Civil War expert probably thinks Lincoln’s ghost maneuvered him into doing it...

LOL, its on film, its like saying Ruby didn’t shoot Oswald. Fear not if he’s a nut case they will elect him to office, he carries the Kennedy brand for Myth and Hype.

No they didn't. That's not true. You didn't read the article did you?

"No doubt RFK knew with some degree of certitude who killed his brother."

No doubt he did. Oswald. It wasn't a secret.

The problem is that the Kennedy family cannot believe that their boys were killed by a Communist and a Palestinian activist. That is not acceptable. So they need a conspiracy to say it was right-wingers. But it just wasn’t in either case

So that's why they never went after the Clintons for Jon-Jon's accidental death...

Anything to it? Hmmm. Sirhan never got closer to RFK than six feet - from the front. He had an eight shot revolver. Fourteen shots fired. Fatal headshot point blank from behind the ear and a second point blank shot from behind under the arm pit.

Nope. Nothing to see here folks. Move along.

No. But there are reports that there were more shots fired, than Sirhan’s revolver held. Sirhan obviously fired rounds. Eyewitness testimony about the “polka dot dress” girl, Sandra Serrano’s haranging by Sgt. Hernandez of LAPD etc..

Well, considering the Vile Kennedys let Cuba fall to Castro, I hope the shot hurt, and hurt bad.

There are no enemies to the left of the Kennedy's...

Not true.

"Fourteen shots fired."

Not true either. You didn't read the article did you?
