Shot a Kennedy?

I call that being ahead of your time!

Things sure went to hell for several years after Kennedy was shot. Not that I'm a big fan of his.

But I wonder if the Vietnam war escalation and the resultant turmoil of the 60's would have occurred if he hadn't been.

Seems to me that there's a big possibility that his death changed the course of the nation pretty significantly.

Sickening to say the least.

The wife and kids should have had more help than they knew what to do with.

Her life has been interesting to say the least. Every year more and more people die that remember his tragic death. He had just passed where I was standing with the other straight A students that got to see the parade. We were on the way to the bus when word spread through the crowd. It seems like yesterday.

No, that's not funny.





The truth usually isn't.


I bet the JFK of 1963 would blow a gasket over his party today.
But that begs a question,
If he had lived, would he have devolved into what the Dems are now,
Or would he have been an influence that kept them on track?

I don't know the truth, and neither will any of us. I will say after visiting the book depository and taking the tour, you could have thrown a [bleep] bag of flower out the window and killed the president. The car was stopped. Right under the window. Making the left. Could have thrown a rock and killed him. Shot him with a 38 special. Why anyone waiting for a very tough shot is beyond me.

Because he would have to lean halfway out the window to shoot straight down and have been visible to all the secret service and cops. It was an 88 yard shot. It was not “very tough”.

Was just in Dallas Saturday. Went to the exact spot. An X painted on the roadway. Whole area much closer and smaller than I thought it would be.

Well, it's pretty well documented he opposed integration until his brother and others gave their analysis.

He also didn't want MLK anywhere near him or his staff, until the size of the crowds were affirmed.

What does that tell us?

Thanks for posting.
When I worked that movie job, I came to know the gal the movie was written about pretty well, being we were both from the same town. Hollywood is so [bleep] up, they always think the audience would rather have their embellishments than the real truth. She was supposed to have a say in the final script, but in the end they screwed her and did what they wanted..much like Oswald explains, they just make schitt up that never happened, and do what they want regardless of what the real subject wants

A secret serviceman was supposed to be standing on rear of the car (bumper or step) but allegedly Kennedy waved him off as he wanted to be seen by as many as possible.

That one little decision.......

The closeness of everything and the lack of acreage in the plaza makes a lot of these theories ludicrous.

Oh yeah? wait till jaguartx finds this thread.....

Juat drove by it on the way to the airport on Sunday. I was in the back seat with my wife and I ducked as we passed the window. She slugged me and called me insensitive..

From m the history I have read, it was Kenedy’s call to ride with the top down, kind of works against a consificy theory.??
If there was a conspiracy, how could they have planned for the top down? I think Oswald just got lucky

That’s a myth.

There wasn’t an ounce of protection on that vehicle. They were built for show and nothing else.

The transparent tops were for inclement weather. JFK wouldn’t have been asked schit that morning. It was a beautiful day.
