Do you believe that the November 22, 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy was the result of shots fired by a lone assassin from the 6th floor of the Texas School Book Depository?
Or are you one of many who believe it was a conspiracy that involved the highest levels of our government?
The case is not closed regarding what actually happened on that fateful day.
The late President Gerald R. Ford, the last surviving member of the commission admitted that the CIA destroyed pertinent documents, covering up the investigation of the assassination, in a recently published book.
Tim Miller, the book publisher who helped author the text, believes there was a conspiracy and that Ford knew even more than he told his publisher and the world. Ford shares many other breath-taking admissions with the reader in this, his final book, written three years prior to his own death.
What did Ford say about the "single bullet theory," the Zapruder film, and Oliver Stone’s movie, JFK?
"Who killed John F. Kennedy?"
Tim Miller joins us to discuss tonight at 9 p.m. ET -- link to the show here.
Most likely explanation is that there was a rush-to-judgment by the FBI, but they got it right anyway. Like my buddy said about OJ Simpson: The LAPD framed a guilty man.
The media, so they would have something to fill up their pages and production schedule with for two weeks every freakin’ November. You’re out of cycle.
that has always been my theory...hell hath no fury than that of a woman scorned..
You're falling for one of the biggest KGB hoaxes in history.
Not consistent with film evidence.
Could Oswald fire 3 shots at a max distance of 600 FEET in what has been determined to be approx. 8 seconds? Of course.
Wearing this contraption for his bad back only held him upright. The reaction you see is the interuption of the muscles needed to stay erect using this thing. Notice in every picture/film Kennedy is leaning forward in the seat as the motorcade rolls along.
I have an alibi.
Conspiracy theroists are complete imbeciles.

LOL. That is the exact same thought I have every time some freeper posts the Clinton/Arkancide list.
“Past JFK traveled into the future to kill himself, thus assuring a place in history as a mythical hero.”
Aha, the RED DWARF endgame. Not to mention that past Kennedy was a sentient wax replicant from the future, while dead Kennedy is a really good name for a band.
My father was an expert on the assassination. I grew up with the Warren Report strewn on our kitchen table. He covered Ruby’s trial for the Saturday Evening Post and was working on a book about Ruby when he died. He interviewed every single player...and his conclusion was the same as yours: Too many people would have had to keep quiet..and that’s just not human nature.
I believe that is true. For there to have only been one shooter, at least one of the bullets would have had to have made at least 3 right angle turns, and that is highly unlikely.
Slight modification. 17.4 comes out to November 23rd 1963.
George Bush was born on July 6, 1946, that’s 761946
John F Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963, that’s 11221963, when Bush was 17
now,
7+6+1+9+4+6 = 33
1+9+6+3 = 19
And 33/19 = 1.74.
Now George Bush was born in 46. 4+6 = 10.
Multiply 1.74 by 10, and you get 17.4, the EXACT age of George W Bush when JFK was assassinated!
Proving conclusively that Bush killed JFK.
Nonsense. Using the same type of rifle, the actual shooting has been duplicated many times by many different people.
Not a particularly hard series of shots to make with a fast, scoped bolt action rifle of minimum recoil, no matter how "antiquated," or cheap.
Oswald was framed by the FBI....Not knowing he was guilty!!!
Not true. Read the Warren Comm. evidence, the FBI could not do it. Nor could the Army.
See 66.
I believe the government did in this case what law enforcement does in LOTS of cases: they pinned it on the one guy they could get their hands on to make the public feel like the government had acted effectively and also to make people feel safer in thinking that one or more shooters were not still at large. I do NOT believe the government in any capacity killed JFK.
Do I care to have this whole thing re-investigated 45 years after the fact? Nope. Not at all.
But do I think Oswald acted alone? No, I do not. I also consider it possible that Oswald was a convenient patsy for local law enforcement and the FBI to pin this on and it would not surprise me in the least to someday find out that Oswald was targeted for suspicion just because no one would be expected to want to defend him from the accusation.
Yes, Oswald may well have done this. But he would also have made the perfect patsy because who in 1963 America would give a damn about an abject failure who couldn't even make a go of living in the USSR?
That is just a fact. It may be possible that Castro's folks did encourage Oswald. We will never know. But we do know that he was the lone gunman. If the mob or the CIA were involved, it would have come to light long ago.
Nonsense. Using the same type of rifle, the actual shooting has been duplicated many times by many different people.

The timing of the shots, certainly. Haven’t kept up on this as some have, but has the behavior of the pristine bullet, that passed through President Kennedy’s neck and Governor Connally’s chest and wrist and embedded itself in the Governor’s thigh. If so, this bullet traversed 15 layers of clothing, 7 layers of skin, and approximately 15 inches of tissue, struck a necktie knot, removed 4 inches of rib, and shattered a radius bone ever been duplicated?
