Greetings, Thom Paine. :2wave:
Good eve, P
Its nice to learn people appreciate me breaking 50 years of silence to finally set the record straight and bring this controversy to a close. :mrgreen:
Silence is golden but my eyes still see

I have little doubt that Oswald was the lone shooter that killed Kennedy. However, given his past associations, it would not surprise me to find out that he was acting under the direction of others. Whose direction, I do not know.
The problem I've always had with it was that it was just so convenient! That always sets off inner alarms... :shock:
If there was another option for "I doubt it, but I'm not sure" I'd have voted for that.
I have no clue if Oswald fired the bullet that actually killed Kennedy.
I'm fairly comfortable with the idea that there was a much larger group of people involved than just one guy, with one gun, in one building.
To further put things to rest....And, I do not know why this has never been tried..I'm always amazed by the number of people convinced there was some gigantic conspiracy. In fifty years, not one credible piece of evidence has surfaced to indicate it was anything other than a single loon with a cheap rifle. Scientific evidence now supports the Oswald conclusion, and the number of eyewitnesses that place Oswald with the rifle and at the scene are fairly numerous. His shooting of Tippitt has an eyewitness (unless, of course, this guy was part of the conspiracy!).
I think there's a deep-seated need to believe that if the President of the United States is murdered, it must take incredible organization involving scores - if not hundreds - of conspirators to accomplish that deed. In fact, it didn't.
Turtle dude, you are a weapons man. Why did Kennedy's head go toward the rear of the car if he was shot from behind?

Possibly. Might also have been an inside job. As in, Oswald and his American handlers.
Most, if not all of "these people" are dead by now.
If some men were involved in a conspitacy, why has NO-ONE come forward - 10-20 years ago ??
This is what I believe. There is no way Oswald could have assassinated President Kennedy all by himself.
Oswald acted and killed Kennedy alone. It's amazing what one man with a rifle and Marine training can do.
You watched FMJ one too many times buddy:mrgreen:

Have a fairly proficient sharpshooter from the same distance and angle, using the same weapon (important !) do the same against a slowly moving target...
If several men cannot replicate , then worms will be everywhere...If they are successful, then doubts should no longer exist.

Marines are experts at making 40 yard shot.
I don't know what world you live in. Marines must qual at 200, 300 and 500 yards.

I live in a world where I qualed on the rifle rangr at 29 Palms. I was only pointing out that Oswald didn't have to exactly have to be a world class shooter.
Sounds like you shot at Army Standards. :2razz:
No, I didn't shoot that good...just met the Marine standards.
The only time I ever shot like a champ was when I got my shuutzenschner in Germany.
Sounds like you didn't do the standard Marine Annual rifle qual range then.
I shot the whole 500 yards. Didn't shoot expert, but I qualified. There was a gunny there that wanted to recruit me for the Corps, but he couldn't find a jar that would fit over my head, so no luck.
