People love conspiracy theories. The Russians, the Cubans, the Miliraty, the CIA, even Aliens. They ALL shot Kennedy, or at least theres more chance that they did than Lee Harvey Oswald.

But the BBC have recently shown an excellent two part documentary with great evidence of who really did shoot Kennedy. Guess who? Lee Harvey Oswald. And guess who was with him? No one.

Most people now get their "information" on the subject from Oliver Stone's film. Thats a bad mistake. When pinned down on key areas where he was inaccurate he claimed "artistic licence", when at the time he was cliaming that it was all as factually correct as he could make it.

Conspircay theorists write away. When I can be bothered I have a few real facts to post that blow all this conspiracy shit out of the water.

Correct. It was Neil Armstrong who shot Kennedy too.

I should say:

FROM the Hollywood sound stage made up to LOOK like the moon.


My mistake.

Szczepankiewicz

Wait a minute.... Someone shot Teddy Kennedy????

Saw one of the episode

One point they made was that peoples conception of history is determined by Hollywood
People think that although Stone took some liberties, for the most part what he shows is true

They would be wrong.

Example 1 - "Lee Harvey Oswald was not a good shot." The truth? He was a sharp shooting high scoring marksman, and they had the official records of his scores to prove it.

Example 2 - "You could never fire the rifle he used three tinmes in under 6 seconds". This is actualy true. But the shots were not all fired in under 6 seconds. They were fired in 8.3 seconds. And some 90 odd year old dude demonstrated by firing it three times in 7.2 seconds without hardly trying.

Example 3 - "The second bullet that supposedly hit Kennedy and the other guy must have turned corners in order to hit them both where they did". Not true. Studying the film of their respective positions, and using computer imagery based on all the available film, their respective positions were such that the bullet would have entered JFK in the back, exited through his throat, and hit the other guy in the side.

Example 4 - "Kennedy's head goes back and to the left when hit in the head, so the shot must have come from this "grassy knoll". Bollocks. People are looking at the exit wound, and treating it as the entrance wound. Exit wounds are routinely more "explosive" than entrance wounds.

Example 5 - "No one could have made such accurate shots from the distance" Crap. It was only 83 yards away, and well withing the capabilities of a sharp shooter.

There are more. I like to have an open mind. But not so open that my brain drains out of my ears. Lee Harvey Oswald was the only person who pulled any triggers on that day. There isn't even any evidence whatsoever that someone put him up to it.

The only Conspiracy is from people who need to believe in conspiracies.

Bitty has finally solved the mystery.

Thanks man.

Ok, if anyone wants the truth here it is:

JFK was a manwhore. He loved hookers and cheap women, hence his relationship with Monroe. He was buying so many high priced hookers that his presidential salary could not cover the costs of being a scum bag. He was forced to attain his money through Marsian loan sharks, operating under false identities as Russian politicians. JFK was then hunted down by a group of marsian assasins who killed JFK and Ted Kennedy. Ted Kennedy's body was then inhabited by an ultra left-winged liberal marsian who assumed the Kennedy name and eventually came to control much of the Democratic party in an attempt to take over the world by first conquering the US. They knew this would be effective because they had just killed an president, thus creating a sense of sympathy and trust that would forever be associated with that name.

This possession, so to speak, of Ted Kennedy by an alien has led to the misconception that TK is an alcoholic. The reason he sweats is because that skin coat gets hot sometimes, and the reason he slurs is because the alien cannot always get rid of his thick marsian accent, no matter how many voice lessons he takes.

Here's a new one for all of you conspiracy theory lovers

Joesph Kennedy was the worst butcher of all the gangland bootleggers. It was surmised that he personally had ordered the killing of over 400 people. The mob especially Chicago helped put J.F.K. into the White House. Kennedy then turned on the mob to help cement their familys position. This plus the fact that they killed Marilyn Monroe was what led to their killing. Sam Giancana head of the combination out of Chicago was in love with Marilyn and told the Kennedys to lay off because she was a civilian. They having discussed family business in her presence.Enraged over her killing Sam used all his power to put the Kennedys in their place(under ground).
One of the assassins was Woody Harrelsons(Cheers) father,
who is a well known hit man and is currently serving a life sentence for whacking a federal judge. Harrelson admitted to his role previously and was photographed at the scene as one of the 'Well Dressed Bums' captured in a boxcar behind the school depository. The head shot that blew Kennedys head apart was delivered from a sewer grate along the curb from a distance of ten to twenty feet . It has since been removed.

Evidently Kennedys well known PT 109 was a farce. The reason the Japanese destroyer ran the boat over that Kennedy was commanding was because they were sleeping on duty. Kennedys father pressed for a medal to go along with his aspirations for public office. Admiral Nimitz would have none of that and he among others wanted to court martial Kennedy for dereliction of duty. But because of Kennedys fathers influence he ended up with some obscure medal for going down with the ship. Admiral Nimitz refused to present the medal so a tug boat captain presented it. In the official photo the tugboat captain is wrongly identified as Admiral Nimitz!
