These conspiracy nuts WANT there to have been a conspiracy.

The case against Oswald is so airtight. Mountains of evidence. It's the OJ jury syndrome I guess.

Although not much evidence exists for a conspiracy, I'm not sure the case against Oswald can be considered "airtight." Oswald was not a professional sniper who practiced constantly the way military snipers practice. The rifle that he allegedly used was also not a particularly high-quality weapon and wasn't close to the precision of military sniper rifles. So it would have been a difficult task for Oswald to have fired all the shots so quickly and accurately under that kind of pressure. On the other hand, maybe he was such a nut case that he didn't even feel any pressure. That's the indication I heard from his brother, that he looked in Lee's eyes and just didn't see any emotion the last few times he saw him before the asassination.

There are a lot of possibilities in this case, and the absence of evidence doesn't rule out involvement by others. It may just mean that the evidence was destroyed quickly and efficiently. It seems more than coincidental to me that Oswald was murdered shortly after the asassination. While that was an amateurish murder using a low-powered handgun, it could indicate that Oswald was involved in a conspiracy of relative amateurs. I think Oliver Stone's idea that US military or CIA people and Lyndon Johnson were involved is way out of bounds. But a small group of crackpots, one of whom was a trained sniper, could have been the guilty group.

Give them about six months and they'll believe the Beltway Snipers were framed.
