I think the reason there was no music during Kennedy's funeral was the fact that he was assassinated, rather than dying a peaceful death.

Thank Heavens it's not!

People are doing pretty well, but dumb Molly Hennenberg and Major Garrett have been yapping near the mic.

The horse could just be showing off... I missed it but what did he do to definitively show that he was actually spooked instead of just feeling the excitement of the crowds?

The police cars seem out of place and diminish the pageantry. JMHO
