Looks like FR has it’s share of nutcases. DU doesn’t have a monopoly.
Yes. It’s a great book that has been boycotted by our media.
I no longer trust ANYTHING I read in newspapers or see on the ‘News’. The media has been covering up the murder of Kennedy for over forty years.
Even Dan Rather has been quoted, since his ‘retirement’ “we really blew it on the Kennedy assassination”.
Two people can keep a secret.....if one of them is dead!
And the guy had been through Marine basic training. The Marines train people to be competent riflemen. Period. And Oswald was no exception.
The conspiracy folks need to read this:
SEEING THE UNSEEN, Part 2
http://www.ejectejecteject.com/archives/000140.html
This ‘report’ by Mrs. Lincoln has been widely disseminated on the internet but you won’t find it in the liberal media, ever.
I believe it. In addition, in recent years, Kenny O’Donnel, and Dave Powers, both in the motorcade that day both told Tip O’Neil that two shots were fired from the front, behind the fence on the ‘hill’.
Don’t look for CBS to cover this anytime soon.
JFK was killed so another element in the Democrat Party, with Southern, big business ties could come to power.
With all due respect you are wrong. It would not require a massive conspiracy, only a very good story that the few conspiraters could tell to others about why the murder needed to be cover up.
And it worked.
You can.
Another factor, not evidenced in photographs, is just how close in everything is in Dealy Plaza. It's not nearly as distant as one expects.
Looking out the same window Oswald did it's very doable, even for a below average shooter.
The rest of it is just, excuse the expression, simple crap. As a for instance read the letters that Estes had his (one images long suffering) attorney write the DoJ. Yet every time the DoJ trudged out to interview him he wouldn't meet with them. Guess his attorney was smarter than Martha Stewarts. Just another loon in a long list of greasy has beens that never were that want to look like they were on the inside of something that never was.
So JFK was killed by a lone nut, who was killed by a lone nut who was up to his eyeballs in mafia contacts.
Sorry, the original Warren Report lies in shreads.
BTW, now that Pres Ford has passed, wasn’t there some information now ready for public dissemination not previously available on the Warren Commission?
I'm not sure I can agree. As I recall, Oswald qualified "expert" with the M1 Garand while in the USMC. He had marksmanship skills.
I also seem to recall that the British repeatedly showed that the SMLE could fire ten aimed shots faster and more accurately than a semi-automatic.
One second is a very long time when shooting. My CCW instructor kept getting on me about why I was taking so long to fire. I kept smiling at him and saying "Because you gave me so much time". He would line up up at ten paces from the target and tell us we had five seconds to fire five shots. I always placed my fifth well aimed shot within the allotted time but at about 4.75 seconds. He would scowl at me but I would direct his attention to my target versus targets of the other students who fired much faster than I.
Anyway, from personal experience with a bolt action rifle, I believe Oswald could have made the shots he is alleged to have made.
Explain step by step how it was done with matching trajectories and which bullet landed where.
I’ll bet you can’t do it without mouthing the same tired accusations with no proof.
By the way, LBJ was in the motorcade. He didn’t kill JFK.
You should get a copy at your library and read it. It is a good book regardless your position.
That's the truth. It's really a rather easy shot down from the 6th floor to Elm Street.
Good nonfiction books aren’t based on lies.
I’ll bet you think space aliens built the pyramids. Am I right?
BTTT
I don't think there was anything "long" to is from the standpoint of a skilled shooter.
Immensely frustrating that all these years later we, the people, do not know who murdered our president.
Look mate, if you can't debate or talk without being rude and disrespectful you aren't worthy my time. Simply put - I appreciate your service and you have my utmost respect yesterday, today and tomorrow. Pity I can't expect the same from you in return. Especially a pity considering I said or did absolutely nothing to deserve such a response. If you can't treat me like a grown man and act like one yourself why should I bother?
End of conversation.
