Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Retired F.B.I agent in Akron: "Oswald did not do it."

When Ruby nailed Oswald , that one event made certain that otherwise sane persons - such as myself - would never believe that Oswald acted alone .

Out of curiousity, how long did it take for Watergate to break?

I don't know anything about international banks, rouge CIA agents, fluoride salesmen, or martians being involved, but I don't think Oswald executed those shots under those circumstances. It wouldn't take much of a conspiracy to have one more shooter involved. Maybe just another oddball like Oswald.

The reason the focused on Oswald so quickly was because it was so obvious.

It was obvious that the shots came from the schoolbook depository. There were many witnesses DIRECTLY beneath the window who heard the shots. There were three witnesses in the building on the floor below who not only heard the shots, but actually heard the brass casings hitting the the thin plywood floor above their heads between the shots. Several of the witnesses on the ground actually saw the gunman and gave a description of him.

Later, when all the employees of the schoolbook depository were gathered, there was only one missing. Guess who? Lee Harvey Oswald, of course.

Almost at the same moment as officers were being told to go out and see if Oswald was home so they could talk to him, there were reports that a police officer had been shot in the area. No one had any idea that they were connected but as every available officer was sent to the area, the numerous witnesses to that shooting gave them descriptions and told them the man was in the Texas Theatre. They quickly apprehended him looking for nothing more than a cop killer at this point.

Once the figured out who they had in custody, it was easy to draw the lines.

What happened to your old Cassatojoe account?

That is what happens when you somehow get logged out and the only way to get on this board if you have long ago forgotten the password is to have an email sent to an email account that you long ago quit using and is no longer in existence.

That documentary was on the History Channel.

just following out the logic trail.....you say the plot was to hire foreign dumbasses as shooters....they'd have to be pretty severely retarded foreigners not to recognize the fact that they're being hired to kill the president of the United States and cannot be allowed to collect their money and live, but we'll put that aside for now.

OK, foreign dumbass shooters (how many? two ? three?) get whacked in their turn by patriotic civil servants who fail to connect the dots and don't realize they're participating in an assassination conspiracy and committing murder in support of it.

But you can't stop there.....evidence must be manufactured, tampered with or destroyed as the case may be to protect the plot.

Officer Tippet has to be killed. Ruby recruited and somehow kept silent for years in prison.

Congress, Justice Dept, and the Warren Commission and all their staffs brought into the coverup....how many people do you have to kill because they won't play ball? and why on earth do people with nothing to gain from any of this not go straight to the FBI, or failing that....since they're all in on it too they won't do anything, right?..the entire FBI is part of the conspiracy......well, phones still work and how come none of the thousands of people who are now implicated drops a dime to the New York Times or the Washington Post?

I mean, it's really too absurd to give any credence to such nonsense. movies can ignore loose ends, but in reality they make such conspiracies impossible to organize and protect.

So, if conspiracies in corruption in high places are so unlikely as to be practically speaking impossible to get away with, what were the Founding Fathers and the Framers of our Constitution so worried about? Why so many tight restrictions on the national government? Why so much public accountability? Why divide powers? Why all the checks and balances? Why so few and defined powers? What were they concerned about?

Does no one wish to take a shot at this?
