I saw a show on some channel (I think ABC) that had a forensic reconstruction of the assassination. There was a lone gunman, shooting from on high, and gelatin dummies positioned like in the motorcade. They had analysts do "blind" studies of it, and all their reports said there must have been multiple gunmen. But actually there was only 1--the angles and positioning resulted in the weird bullet trajectory.

Peter Jennings closed the report by saying something quite intriguing. For most of the great crimes in history, we have a corresponding great criminal and scheme. There is balance. But with JFK, we have a head of state toppled by a nutjob out to make his place in history. There is no great criminal. It doesn't balance out like the Holocost and the Nazis. That's why there's a need to invent an elaborate conpiracy.

I don't know if it's true or not, but that resonates with me.

SCIENCE and COMPUTER RE-CREATIONS, FORENSICS, AUTOPSIES, etc. mean nothing to conspiracy theorists.

Any one of you who does not belive Oswald acted alone have not done enough research. The crime of the century has been solved numerous times, but it doesn't make for exciting and fun reading, watching, etc. The conspiracy books and movies about Kennedy make for the best spy/murder drama subject ever. They entertain me greatly, but it's nice to know the truth while watching. How many of you believe in UFO's, alien abductions, etc. That would be interesting to know.
