“e Warren Commission’s “single bullet theory” is so embarrassing that an intelligent individual feels immense shame in even listening to it, much less extending any probability to it. It’s not a theory; it’s a “Big Lie” the likes of which Joseph Goebbels popularized.”
Goebbels? Come on. I stopped reading after this ridiculous hyperbole. Yes a single bullet could have done what they described and no it was not pristine. Or maybe not. But it is possible and not reason to throw out “Goebbels”. Personally i think there was a 2nd gunman on the grassy knoll that fired the head shot. But the only confirmed shooter is Oswald.
Richard Nixon pulled out of Vietnam and negotiatiated nuclear disarmament with Khrushchev's successor. James Schlesinger, his Director of Central Intelligence conducted a purge of the CIA. So why didn't the Power Elites have Nixon assassinated?
So why wasn't Jackson assassinated?
I believe is was divine intervention.
Someone tried and their gun misfired. Jackson actually had to be pulled off his attacker. He was known for being very combative.
He survived another attempt on his life earlier and carried the ball around in him the rest of his life.
Good points but the deaths under suspicious circumstances of dozens and dozens of material and eyewitnesses puts the probability of a “lone nut” Oswald as the only shooter in the billions to one realm.
Andrew Jackson’s would-be assassin fired not one but TWO flintlock pistols at him at point blank range and BOTH failed to flash in the pan. He would have beaten his attacker to death were he not restrained.
Earlier, Jackson had withstood the fire of his antagonist on the dueling field; the .70 caliber ball struck a rib then deflected. He staggered but then stood upright & fired; the hammer fell to half-cock but Jackson recocked and fired, killing his opponent.
How many U.S. Presidents can be quoted, “Oh, I do believe he pinked me, but I would have killed him even if he had shot me through the brain!”
I have always thought that if the government had nothing to hide, why is it hiding it? Why are there still so many classified files about this 50 years later? With one swoop the release of these files would either shut down the conspiracy folks or vindicate them.
Those who trumped up the huge convoluted multiple conspiracy theories about the Mafia, Castro, Khrushchev & LBJ would look like real idiots if now somebody spilled the beans & admitted, “Aw shucks, it really was just one isolated nutcase with a surplus rifle who assassinated our President & changed the course of history. Oopsie.”
“Not bloody likely, mate.”
Or was it simply plan A all along?
There was substantial motorcade security and planing. Even vehicles just a few hundred feet in front of the JFK limousine were filled with LEOS and SS looking at building windows for signs of potential shooters, as they would radio back to the motorcade a warning to evade/breakoff.
Numerous threats against Oswald had been made to authorities. Even FBI Hoover contacted Dallas Police Chief requesting that Oswald be given the massive security.
The Chief later said he never got any message from the FBI boss.
It begs the question, why would Dallas PD parade the person around for the media and others present, who just 48 hours earlier allegedly blew the head off the President of the United States?
Ruby gave inconsistent statements as to why he did it.
He wanted to be the big hero.
He wanted to prove Jews could be tough guys and had guts.
And even later said he wanted to spare Jackie Kennedy from criminal legal proceedings against the assassin.
And he would also say, "I don't know what came through my mind".
Which is it?
Ruby goes to downtown and parks his car. While in the area at a western union Ruby said he just happened to see a bustle at police headquarters and went over just to see what was happening. We know what followed.
If this is true why when he parked his car did he throw his wallet and car keys in the trunk and take his revolver with him which he normally kept in a moneybag in his trunk?
All this seems a bit odd.
The Sandy Hook incident had some irregularities with firearms and trunks as well.
Maybe trunks are the Kryptonite of the federal government.
Don’t let bad jokes and goofy quips discourage you from attempts to be funny.
100%.
the AFR report is a bunch of BS. Aaron Zapruder’s film and his testimony, as well as his secretary’s testimony, has no one behind the fence on the Grassy Knoll.
“Aw shucks, it really was just one isolated nutcase with a surplus rifle who assassinated our President & changed the course of history. Oopsie.”

Okay, then why not release ALL records and put this argument to rest? Why? Thousands of pages of documents are still classified at the National Archives after 50 years. There is no credible argument for doing so. Where is Sandy Berger when you really need him?
The height of the bad-joke/goofy-quip/pun/bad-wordplay genera is when you say something to a room of people and then, two instants later, everyone groans.
:)
I’m confident your attempt at humor made more than one cringe.
Keep practicing.
General Jackson was a MAN.
>>>“Oswald shot JFK, without help from anyone.”
Agreed. A loose cannon commie with shooting skills to bring it off. True, the assassination of JFK redounded greatly to Lyndon Johnson’s benefit (and how he squandered it!) but the Soviets thought Kennedy a useful patsy & were shocked and saddened at the news.
“Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.”<<<
Kennedy was Obama of that era. Incompetent celebrity type POTUS. Commies took every advantage they could of him.
I guess a news of assassination made them more than just sad.
Soviets behind Kennedy’s murder makes about as much sense as if they did it today to Obama.
