jfk assassination

The single bullet theory was the absolute essence of the Warren commission, without it they believed there had to be more than one gunman. The only evidence ever offered by the warren commission for the single bullet theory was essentially the endorsment of the reputable and respected men on the...

Michael Parenti, comedic conspiracy "theorist"; Oswald as posthumous straight man Michael Parenti is a gifted lecturer, with a comedic touch. From a web site (tucradio.org) that has many of his lectures: The JFK Assassination and the Gangster Nature of the State lectures are here and here...

Until a couple years ago when I read Vincent Bugliosi's big book on the JFK assassination I hadn't looked into it a lot and only knew the superficial stuff I'd see on TV. When I read the book I learned something about Oswald that I never knew before even though the assassination happened 45...

What's the best website for debunking the JFK assassination conspiracy tales? I would like to recommend one, or several, to my (college) students. I already have John McAdams. thanks,

Jessie Ventura has been making the media rounds for his new book on conspiracy theories (which I assume is a spin-off from his recent series on TruTv). The video is from his Today Show appearance where he mostly talks about the JFK assassination and 9/11. Just a thought here. I saw the...

So Thursday, January 21st at 8pm on Fox it looks like will be going to "solve" the JFK assassination. http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/00030112.html The previews look like they will be falling in on the CT side of the fence which will probably be good for ratings and not much more than...

I'm studying to become an expert in the JFK Assassination. My friend is pro-conspiracy on this one. I asked him what his best evidence was and he said Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy by Jim Marrs is it. He's recommended that book to me and I intend to read it. Has anyone read...

I recently came across the Christchurch City Library's website. Among their extensive collection of scanned material is the Christchurch Star's edition of 23 November 1963. A mixture of luck (due to the timing of the assasination) and hard work meant that the paper was one of the first to be...

I've spent the afternoon discussing the Kennedy assassination with some people who were rather under-educated about it, and falling for a number of red herrings. But a couple have asked a question I can't answer. Or at least, they're not satisfied with what answer I can give. Why didn't the...

Here we go again. How long until someone spins this into a new CT? It seems some memorabilia was found in the Dallas County DA's office. There is a transcript from what appears to be a proposed movie script of a collusion between Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby. clicky

Thread title says it all. Please enlighten us, RedIbis.

Just saw a trailer for the PBS show "Oswald's Ghost" which is being aired in a few minutes. It was Dan Rather saying "Sometimes conspiracy theories turn out to be true." Not sure of the context and I hope this is a fair presentation not some CT BS.

In 1985, a Federal Dist. Court Jury, deliberated the Defamation suit brought by E. Howard Hunt against the publisher Liberty Lobby, determining that the CIA committed the assassination of John Kennedy. We know from evidence developed since, that George H.W. Bush and Richard Nixon were principals...

Thread title says it all. I have to go in to work today but I'll check back on my breaks and at lunch to see how kageki's exposition is progressing. And everyone, let's please try to keep it civil.

More conspiracy stuff bouncing around. For $889, you too can have a leather-bound copy of the Warren Commission, one of 52 lettered editions, inside "a solid walnut, laser engraved, wooden box which also contains artifacts from the Oak Tree and White Picket Fence from the 'Grassy Knoll!'" Wow...

On this Thanksgiving day most of us in America are getting ready to sit down, stuff ourselves, watch football, visit with friends and relatives and be thankful for the freedoms we enjoy and the abundances we too often take for granted. On this day 44 years ago, however, one of the most traumatic...

Thom Hartmann talking about 9/11 Woo On KTLK, 1150 AM in Los Angeles. On the Mark Germain show. Hawking his new book, what else? Hartmann talking now about Building 7, and he's dancing, because Germain (a skeptic) is asking pointed questions. Hartmann says, no explosives. But then says...

I was reading something about the JFK CT and you know, I think I could make that shot 1 time in 1000 or so. Now, Oswald was likely a much, much better shot than I am - he had training. So maybe he was ten times better then I am, so one time in 100. What I'm saying is these people just don't...

Why? Because they tried to duplicate Oswald's shooting feat and Concluded that it would take 19 SECONDS! to fire three rounds. 19 SECONDS!? Who are these fumble fingered buffoons? Did they have their fingers removed as a 'handicap'? Sheesh! I know guys who could fire and load MUZZLE-LOADING...

Before I have to return Reclaiming History to the library, here is a condensed summary of Bugliosi's summary of evidence against Oswald. from pgs. 955-966 1-8: 'curtain rods', guns, and uncharacteristic behavior of Oswald: Instead of visiting his wife and kids on a Friday, as usual, O. went...

I was just checking out the customer reviews on Amazon.com for Vincent Bugliosi's opus on the assasination of President Kennedy. It is interesting that out of the 12 reviews posted thus far, with only one exception they are either one star (minimum) or five stars (maximum). Considering the...

are there any threads debunking the JFK conspiracy? I am meeting a friend in Manhattan, on Sunday, who believes in the JFK conspiracy by the gov't. We are also going to talk 9/11. Anyone want to join me Sunday afternoon? Could really use Gravy if your around. I want to buy you a drink...

Inspired by the thread where Gravy was positively identified as the operative at the beginning of 9/11 Eyewitness and the thread about Killtown's latest photo analysis, when it came to me. I know who really assassinated JFK. Eager to confirm my findings, I did what any good conspiracy theorist...

I've been egged on to do a separate thread on the Zapruder film. When you go to this site, you will read about the limo stop, which was removed from the final film. Proof that this stop even existed is shown by the forward motions of the first 4 people in the car -- Nellie Connally, Gov. John...

With time it seems most conspiracy theories fade to the periphery. Most never totally go away, but they no longer really matter except to the hardcore CTers. A lot of people may say they think that someone else shot JFK, but they don't get their panties in a twist over it. I'm beginning to...

I know little to nothing about the JFK assassination, except that it's the subject of a bunch of conspiracy theories. Is the "Grassy Knoll" stuff just woo-woo? What is the 'sensible' position on this and what is the 'loose change equivalent?'

(I don't want to break the thread, but since you asked: the Zapruder Film and all photos and films taken of the Kennedy Assassination were doctored before most of them were returned to their owners. Some photos, etc., were never returned. The Z-Film is crap. The Secret Service man driving the...
