Does any rational person really believe that a known felon was going to walk into secure police facility that was heavily guarded by cops that knew Ruby, at the precise time the then most infamous criminal in history exited a door from the police facility while walking between two cops, walk up to Oswald unopposed, and shoot him?
The cameraman that took the picture of Oswald wincing as he was allegedly shot said he never saw a drop of blood.
Was Oswald really killed in the ambulance on the way to hospital?
I believe Oswald shot JFK. But I do not believe he acted without principals who put him up to it.
Oswald had started his job that accorded him ability to shoot JFK two weeks prior to the murder. Coincidence? I doubt it. My cousin by marriage, was on the Dallas PD and was there outside the basement doing crowd control when Oswald was shot. My Grandpa worked two or three blocks from the scene of the crime. Some friends of my parents lived in the DFW metro area (still do). Several years after the assassination, the Dad took his two girls (one now 60 and the other 54) by Oswald's grave. Oswald's mom was out there tending it and shook her fist at them as they drove by.

After hearing that I'm going to grab my bug-out pack, scout rifle in hand, and head for the hills. Gonna take some silver and gold too, while scrupulously avoiding chem trail areas... of course I'll be equipped with the latest gear including my prized gore-tex tinfoil hat...

James Files. Patsy. Who cares? ....many. Big people in bigger dark places put it together. Doesn't matter who fired the shots. Bingo.

I highly agree with your decision to do so. Don't let the water put you off after you pass San Francisco.

Nothing like the mother of all kook-konspiracy theories to bring out the best in our KOTY. ANYBODY with half a brain (that leaves quite a few of you out) that knows anything about guns and ballistics and the incredibly EASY shot Oswald had to take would know better. I've been there several times and also a friend of mine who is a retired Scout Sniper. You could have nailed him with a BOW the shot is so close. But kooks, do carry on...

What did Oswald do that most riflemen here on the �Fire could not have done with the same access to that window? Without any help from anyone.
Most of us would have bought a better rifle�
It has been awhile, but I have seen the reenactments on TV that traced the trajectory of every shot including the �missing bullet� that probably hit that traffic light pole that was centered in the line of sight.

Why do you do these things to yourself? You know, there's something of the incurable optimist about you. Why do you still imagine that you can reach him?

Who cares as long as it was a Kennedy that was disposed of?
A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

Also, wasn't there a rather large tree in full fall foliage between the purported sniper's nest window and JFK?

Without a doubt at least one shot came from the grassy knoll.
The History Channel did a 6 hour series on this a few years back. Very interesting. It is titled "The Men Who Killed Kennedy". It was avaiable for purchase on their website a few years ago.
Also interesting was a book written by the brother of Sam Giancana, the Chicago mob boss. In the book, he relates a converation with Sam, where Sam alludes to his role in the assasination.
There are several valid reasons for Giancana wanting Kennedy dead. I do not recall the title of the book, but one should be able to search for it on the internet.
Another interesting read that also brushes on the assassination is called "The Band Played On".
Give them a read and see what you think.

Oswald acted alone. This has been hashed out bit by bit over and over and over again. The end result is always the same. Oswald acted alone. Period.
But that's boring...
Why let facts get in the way of a good story, eh!?

I HAVE and looked out the very window. Given the vehicles speed and direction, it was a piece of cake..
