Now, on the subject of 'your govt' that day - it was in the form of the Dallas Police Department - officers that day put their lives on the line in finding the culprit, Oswald, and attempting to apprehend him - ONE of those officers that day paid for that effort with his life (Officer JD Tippet)....The detectives working that case (JD Tippet's murder) and the Kennedy Assassination (it wasn't a federal crime to shot the presient at that time) have said that they "had enough evidence to convict Lee Harvey Oswald and get the death penalty" - there were NO DOUBTS in their minds who shot JFK ...

I know this won't matter to those who believe the WC etc. But just a few minutes ago, I was listening to phone tapes on CSPAN, made just days after the shooting. One of them was between Eugene Rostow, the Dean of Yale Law, and Bill Moyers, at that time aide to LBJ.

Rostow advised that in the face of the American people already not believing the Dallas PD that a commission should be set up to investigate the shooting.

There were already questions about the Dallas PD in those early days. This is not to say that most of them weren't doing the best they could, but there were massive problems recognized from the start, and that shouldn't be ignored.

I'll wait now for someone to shoot this down.

There were already questions about the Dallas PD in those early days.

The DPD detectives universally believe that Oswald did it, that they had sufficeint evidence to convict him AND get the death penalty - THAT'S a pretty strong belief STILL voiced to this day in interviews of those detectives.

Bang.

Shot down.
