Absolutely.
The lies that were told to boost a Conspiracy Theory could not stand up. When I was 12 Years Old and had a head full of mush I initially bought into that garbage.
Two things I remember hearing, the first was Oswald couldn’t have possibly gotten off all the shots with that Bolt Action Rifle in the time allotted was disproved easily. Years ago I saw a video of a guy using the same type Rifle that got off all three shots in about half the time Oswald did.
Oswald also had the Rifle resting on the window sill which improved the accuracy of the Shots. The fact that he was a former Marine Rifleman didn’t hurt either.
The second thing was the question of the Bullet that struck the Texas Governor in the Arm. They kept saying it was a separate Shot because the trajectory would have to be different then the Shot that hit Kennedy. Turns out the seating position in the Lincoln Continental Limo is different for each row of Passengers. The Texas Governor was not directly in front of Kennedy as was implied by the Truthers of the day.
That being said, people believe in many things no matter the facts or lack of proof. SOS, different day.
As it was, Oswald was regarded as a poor shot by Marines and others who saw him shoot for target practice. Over the years, no expert marksman has duplicated Oswald's supposed feat when tested under equivalent conditions. Repeated attempts to do so at Quantico failed, and famed Marine sniper Carlos Hathcock has been quoted as saying that “I don’t know how many times we tried it, but we couldn’t duplicate what the Warren Commission said Oswald did."
Oswald was a patsy as he claimed.

It took the WC FOUR attempts to duplicate something close to the shooting.
Your demonstration did not use the same rifle. And the expert rifleman used by the WC could not duplicate the shots even with a working gun which had been repaired after it was seized. Almost all missed the target almost all the time. The fourth marksman was allowed to take his time and could only hit the target once. All four attempts were at a STATIONARY target.
Everything about the rifle stinks to high heaven when given even minimal scrutiny.
This was one of the worst rifles ever made and Oswald’s was even worse. The sights were screwed up, Oswald had never been shown to have practiced with it. His shooting in the Marines declined over the term of his enlistment to the point that he barely qualified for the lowest ranking. The scope was PLASTIC, a piece of cheap crap. Oswald was found two minutes after the shooting in the lunch room drinking a coke making it impossible for him to have run up five flights of stairs, arrange the “snipers nest”, accurately shot the President and run back down the same course. He was calm, not red, not out of breath after this impossible course of action.
The shot that blew out the President’s brains was from an exploding bullet not the ammo of the MC. Not that there was ever any proof provided that LHO actually purchased any ammo.
The simulations showing that Connolly could be hit with the Magik bullet are laughable and just show how impossible that claim is.
But the most obvious proof of a conspiracy was Jack Ruby’s murder of the patsy. He could not be allowed to talk or go to trial. That murder of critical witness (a Mafia routine) made it clear to all but the most obtuse that the Mafia was involved.
Anyone who has stood in the window of the book depository knows the shot was very easy and that you could literally throw a rock and hit JFK from that very short distance.
Why were the Secret service motioned to get away from the car just prior to the shooting???
