Nope. Multiple gunmen. Oswald was the patsy. Mafia, CIA, mafia and CIA working together - take your pick. But there was more than 1 gunman.

Tin foil hat conspiracy theorist. There is no way the CIA and/or mafia could have been in it, somebody would have told the truth by now.

All of us who have ever fired an Italian 6.5 Carcano share your view. That gun is an absolute piece of shite, and I can't imagine what you'd have to do to it to make it accurate as a sharpshooter

My husband, an Army Ranger sharpshooter says the same thing.


Dealey plaza is really small, and the car was moving really slow. The discovery channel ran two shows on this, one on myth busters and another it's own special, that used the same rifle, the same ammo, used high tech Ballistic dummies and painstakingly recreated the site. They got the exact same shot pattern and the same wound pattern as what actually happened. You can watch it on youtube. So would have to say the sharpshooter is wrong on this one.

LBJ and Edward Kennedy thought Oswald acted alone till the day they died.

As always if you think there is a conspiracy you have to put forward a more compelling theory. Anyone can take shots at a complicated bunch of evidence collected in the heat of the moment. It's really just to easy.

If you're looking for conspiracies looking at Oswald's background is much more fertile place to look. If ever there was a guy that seemed turned by the CIA. LINK

If someone other than Jack Ruby had killed LHO then I would lean towards a single shooter theory.

But because Jack Ruby had known Chicago Mob ties Then I lean towards it being a conspiracy.

In the end, who knows. I hope something is unearthed in my lifetime leading to a real conclusion.

Oswald acted alone. They've already proven that. Ruby was a hothead who thought that he would be a national hero for killing JFK's assassin.

No conspiracy.

Case closed.

They have proven to my satisfaction that Oswald acted alone (and my satisfaction is so important). I'm highly suspicious that the CIA put him up to it for a number of reasons. And I am so not a conspiracy kinda guy

You're in luck IIRC, everything in the sealed Warren Commision file is set to be made public in 2017.

I'm too young, but would be curious to know what people remember from that day.

I wasn't born.

A president was assassinated. I doubt any games of any kind were played at any school in the entire country, and if they were played, they should not have been.
Hope you're trolling with that question.

As to Oswald... I've waffled back and forth, but am currently leaning toward Oswald as the lone gunman.

quote:

I don't believe Oswald acted alone. Too many shots, too accurate, too fast, from where he was.

This, along with the fact that after yelling repeatedly to reporters that he had been used as a "patsy," suggesting that he was going to sing like a bird, Oswald was shot & killed, point blank, right in front of a shitload of law enforcement officials, on national television, by a strip joint owner who was a known thug with ties to organized crime, and who said he did it because of his love for the country & for President Kennedy.

I believe it was LBJ that had the Warren investigation stopped. That ought to raise a few red flags. Maybe something he didn't want people to know.

Yeah, I think I had just got back from buying the 2nd set of tars for my Volkswagon van.
