    I swore at one point we had a JFK thread. Our hotel in Dallas last weekend was right around the corner from Dealey Plaza. So in my flight home I watched the movie. One of my favorites by the way.
    So I honestly want your opinion on what you think REALLY happened! And why do you feel that way… was your opinion swayed by upbringing…. politics……religion….. where you were raised? This should be fun! #BackAndToTheLeftFAMS

    I believe he was taken out by a US Government agency.

    That chart clearly shows him being stabbed in the back with a katana.

    Lee Harvey is innocent!

    11.23.63 is an excellent book and series. I think it's available on Amazon Prime right now.

    Will we find out some day that an AR-15 was used?

    I recommend reading the Warren Commission Report as well. Reading through that had me leaning even further from the lone gunman theory of Oswald.

    Yeah, getting over having to learn how to read at your age would be tough for anyone.

    I think there was multiple shooters. They planned on setting up Oswald the whole time. CIA is my suspect.

    JFK's assassination was a vast conspiracy, likely connecting both the CIA/FBI and the Mafia who both had good reasons for JFK to be gone.

    Kennedy was going to cut the CIA's budget and was considering closing the agency down. They blamed him for the failure to take out Castro.

    The Mafia hated the Kennedys. JFK and brother RFK, the attorney general were campaigning hard on taking them on and causing trouble for them.

    Oswald was the perfect patsy. The CIA and many others felt JFK was too soft on communism. What better assassin than a communist, military reject.

    The 1979 Select House Committee found that Kennedy was likely killed as part of a conspiracy and that Oswald did not act alone.

    The magic bullet theory is bullshit. Not only are we supposed to believe that the bullet that killed Kennedy magically went through a seat, and into and out of the governor, but was also found in the hospital still in emaculate shape. Pleeeease!

    The Zapruder film clearly shows Kennedy was shot from the front, likely from the grassy knoll, where several witnesses heard shots from and saw smoke.

    Oswald claimed himself, he was a patsy. The Mafia sent Jack Ruby (Who's club Oswald frequented) who was probably let in, to shoot Oswald, not because he felt bad for Jackie, but to silence Oswald from revealing the existence of a conspiracy.

    LBJ was also likely involved. He ducked just before the shots rang out in his own limo behind the President's and shared a wink and a smile after being sworn in. (I have also heard when he turned to the man he winked at, he said, we did it, but I can't confirm that)

    LBJ had a good reason to be involved. JFK was considering dumping him as his VP for the coming election. LBJ a far more conservative man than Kennedy, felt he was weak. LBJ was someone who did what he had to in order get what he wanted (see his Texas election scandal).

    I'm gonna be completely honest. I'm way too ignorant on this. I actually don't know what I believe mainly because I haven't dived into it.

    New rabbit hole, here I come!

    I think he just got popped by LHO and that’s it. I’m not a conspiracy guy. Except Ivanka and the stairs I will die on that hill
