Yes how did a strip-joint owner find his way into a heavily protected police station and manage to get so close to a man being held for the murder of Kennedy.

The more one digs the murkier the trail.

45 years have pasted, and people are still asking questions about the killings. Kennedys death changed the course of our history. The real question is what would this country be like today if his death never happened? We will never know.

I remember all of this. I was so taken with the Kennedy's as a little child. I read a book that Grandma had about, this over and over. Then the grassy knoll theory came into being. I always wondered why Ruby shot Oswald. I still wonder if there could have been another shooter. Was it an inside job, as so many suspect. Then seeing Jon-Jon saluting his fathers coffin. I was a child but, I remember weeping, I felt so sorry for the boy.

The real truth has never been revealed - I just don't find the official story believable.

I remember how struck I was by Oswald's saying "Hell, no!" when asked by a reporter "Did you do it?" He seemed to be speaking the truth. I also remember him saying "I'm just a patsey". These are clips seldom aired.

It seems very few people still buy the official story.

I've notified about the inappropriate comment about me above. There is no such person as Marc R. so I guess it is one of my more cowardly sparring partners.

That said, it seems 70% of Americans do not buy the official story

"In 2003, on the 40th anniversary of the event, ABC news conducted a poll that found 70 percent of Americans believe JFK's assassination was the result of a conspiracy."

Judy, we definitely do not see eye to eye on a lot of subjects. I am insulted over Marc whoosis choice of words. It is vile and an insult to all women. I reported it as inappropriate. Let 'em come after me!!

Judy, I reported the foul mouth about 2 hours ago. Would have thought that it would not have allowed a posting like this.

We don't agree on global warming, but I do agree with you about JFKs' assassination being the result of a conspiracy.

I truly don't believe that it is an "enemy" spouting forth this venom, just a troll.

Thank you for your support. As you can see, management doesn't seem to be the least offended...it is still there.

If you just want happy turkey and stuffing stuff, then dont click onto this link.
To those that do, read the first paragraph, and understand this.
These tactics are nothing new.
overtaking entire cities was a method these people used and perfected in regions of The former soviet union for over 20 years. You just never heard much about it, for whateverthehell reason.
attacking schools, theatres, hotels and hospitals, is pretty much standard operating procedure. Using emergency vehicles as roving (and secondary) Implements of Destruction, is also S.O.P.


I'm telling you all this, because its coming here.
