The planners were more immediate-thinkers, choreographing the lead-up, the day-of, and the ensuing cover-up. They needed to make things seem kosher to the contemporary investigators of the time.

They were not thinking of all of us over the decades re-analyzing the events of that day. Actually, they couldn’t care less, since those that were behind it also controlled (and control it completely today) the media. Even publishers of history books.

Spoiler alert, from “Rich Man’s Trick”, as not many will watch the 3 hours, and those that do probably won’t mind:

8 shooters, 6 above ground. ALL 6 above ground missed. Most if not all of the 6 were observed and reported on by witnesses.

2 shooters that did the deed without missing were in the sewer system, and shot out thru sewer grates at a purposely *slowed down* presidental limo. The 2 shooters got to the plaza undetected and departed undetected.

Agree here also.
My point was that most people have no idea about which were talking and they are kept blind from it.

"Again, I don’t buy the conspiracy bit anymore. People talk."

Apparently E. Howard Hunt did talk. His two sons recorded him making (near) deathbed confessions to a conspiracy. E. Howard Hunt's wife discounted them saying the son took advantage of his declining lucidity, but then she would have a motive to protect her husband's legacy given that earlier in life he had denied any involvement under oath before congress, and been involved in a few libel lawsuits.

Does this prove anything? No, it does not, but it does make the contention that, "Somebody would have talked about it," a little more tenuous.

Oswald was capable and it has been proven, that he could have fired all three shots.

Sorry but I gave up on the JFK conspiracy thing a long time ago. Pardon me for being harsh but personally, as far as I'm concerned they didn't shoot enough Kennedy's.

Dirty dealings got jfk in...including the mob and the fbi..who were essentially two separate entities back then.
Then he defied them.

It would be like if Biden suddenly became America first and did the will of the people.
They would take him out in a heart beat.

No way anyone fired from the grassy knowll. The top of the fence would have been at the level of Zapruder and his secretary who were 20 feet to the left, out on a concrete wing. They would have been able to see and hear that. And the Zapruder film ends with a peek behind the fence. Nothing there.

Thart award of Marksman is at 200 yards over open sights. The head shot for Kennedy was at 68 yard. Witha scope.

Sorry, but that shot with the same bullets was duplicated with by an Australian gun expert. The real bullet, and the test fired one, had almost identical dammage to the base of the bullet. Next.

The Mob would not have been able to handle the heat that would have come down on them if they tried something so stupid as to assassinate a president of The United States.

Not saying jfk was solely a mob hit.
But the mob helped jfk get elected.
And the government was tangled up with the mob.

Plus there is no need for the mafia..when that role has since been taken over by what we now call the deep state.

So, the ‘Australian gun expert’ fired a round through two cadavers, striking a vertebra, an ulna and a femur then after exiting the last body, fell gently to the ground?

That’s fascinating.

No, they used body gel heated to body temp, rope to simulate ligaments, I forget what they used for bones. The shot hit two bones in Connally’s wrist after passing through Kennedy and Connally’s simulated bodies. It hit two bones instead of one in Connally’s wrist. The bullet hit Connally’s thigh sideways, and bounced off since hitting the two bones had adsorbed enough energy to not penetrate the thigh. I am sure you could google it or youtube it.

That theory has been pretty well proven wrong by several sources.

Maybe, but the article you linked to sure doesn't. It can be summed up as "the theory is BS and anyone who believes it is a poopyhead."
