Who killed JFK and why?

[SweepEm]

Who Killed JKF? I have suspicions and they are all outlined above.
It's interesting that so many connected in that era were killed. JKF, Marilyn Monroe, RFK and so on. I believe that they were connected.
How? I'm not sure since I hate politics and all that is connected with it.
So, I have no answers except that I don't believe LJO acted alone and that Marilyn Monroe was connected to the Kennedys and she winds up dead.

I wish there would be definitive answers to all these questions.

How about the alien space ship at Roswell? Lindberg's baby's killer? Is Jim Morrison really dead? How about D.B. Cooper? And other life mysteries.
Curious Minds want to know, and not from the National Enquirer

That probably means we can link the Kennedy asassination to Kevin Bacon! We're on to you Bacon.

One of JFK's bodyguards accidently shot him in the head...

JFK is not really dead!

He has been secretly training with Rolls Gracie in the Andes mountains, and is preparing to make his Pride debut!

JFK will replace Shannon "The Cannon" Ritch to face the mighty Sakuraba!

Oh, never mind.

"Second, even a decorated marksman would have had an impossible task doing what LHO was suppose to do"

Do you happen to know the range the shots were supposedly fired at? Do you know what speed the vehicle was traveling at and if that speed was constant during the time the shots were fired? Also, I seem to remember it being mentioned that Oswald is supposed to have fired three shots in a span of 5.6 seconds according to the Warren Commision Report. Do you know if 5.6 seconds is the correct amount of time according to the report?

"The first report from the officers' that found the weapon, and at least one knew weapons, was that it was a Mauser, a 7.65 I think. Now, there was a Mauser that vaugely resembled the 6.5, but it was a much better rifle"

If you are knowledgeable about firearms as Ronin says, I was wondering if you could explain something to me. You refer to the alledged assasination weapon as a 6.5 Italian Carbine and say that it was originally believed that the assasination weapon was a Mauser. What exactly constitutes classifications of Carbine and Mauser? I know that all the Mausers I have ever seen have been old European millitary surplus rifles and all have been bolt-actions. The only Carbine I have heard of is the M-1 Carbine. I believe that was a semi-automatic rifle. Wasn't the 6.5 MM Carcano Carbine a bolt-action rifle? Why do the M-1 Carbine and the 6.5 MM Carcano Carbine both fall into the category of Carbines?
Also, when you say you believe the rifle was originally thought to be a 7.65 MM Mauser, are you referring to the 7.65 MM Belgian Mauser? When you refer to the 6.5 MM Mauser that resembled the 6.5 MM Carcano Carbine, are you referring to the 6.5 X 55 MM Swedish Mauser?

It was Jackie! There were no high powered rifles at all.It was a 22 she had palmed and just reached up behind his head and started blasting.The whole assasination thing is a coverup .She found out he was boinking Marilynn Monroe and she just lost it.Those other people in the car just got in the way!

[Mickey Finn]

I believe Dan just solved the mystery. Hell hath no fury like a jealous b!tch scorned. Now, are we really sure Aristotle Onassis died of natural causes?

[Joe Manco]

Who killed JFK?
I did.

Why?
I was just practicing my aim.

Yours truly,

[Mickey Finn]

Damn Pit. I figure JFK was killed about the same year you were born. Precocious little bastard, weren’t you?

Manco is the reincarnation of LHO.

That would explain a lot, actually.

[Mickey Finn]

Hmmmm… now if we could just find the reincarnation of Jack Ruby…..

"A massive government conspiracy." Not hardly, and here's why. There is an adage about how two people can keep a secret: when one of them is dead. I don't think the mastermind of the government conspiracy killed everyone involved.

Take the stealth bomber and fighter planes for example. Even though these were top secret projects, info was constantly being leaked, because it is impossible for people to keep their mouths shut, it is just human nature.

So that makes a non-massive mob hit sound a little more possible, but still not likely IMO.

On the question of multiple shooters, I admit that Oswald would have to be a phenomanal shooter to get that job done, that I have read that there are professinal snipers who could do the same job with the same rifle. Still, I wouldn't be suprised if there was a second shooter. Which in itself makes it a conspiracy. But who and why are the eternal questions that will probably never be answered.

Punch Drunk:

Good points. That's pretty much my position too.

Here's my thinking in a nutshell:

If the Oswald shot is possible, then Oswald probably did it and it happened more or less like the Government says it did.

If the shot is impossible, then the Government has a lot of explaining to do.

I will have to do some reading up...thanks guys.

By the time I get around to actually sitting down and reading a book from cover to cover I will be in the John Koerner II Home for Pre-Euthanized Liberals, and Hawk will be fertilizing daffodils in an East Texas cemetery after perishing in valiant combat against the ZOG.

[PunchDrunk]

Ronin...what's the ZOG?

[Joe Manco]

... little pieces of information have leaked ... which is precisely why the whole scenario is now under question.

Yours truly,

Joe
