President Kennedy 44th Assassination Anniversary

JFK 44th Assassination Anniversary
Forty four years ago on November 22nd, our president, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, was assassinated at approximately 2pm Eastern standard time while riding in a motorcade in Texas.
A nation had lost its leader, its Camelot, its innocence. In a matter of 8 seconds, three shots were fired. Lee Harvey Oswald was in the school book depository, a perfect bead on the motorcade, three spent shell casings found on the floor. Oswald was soon located and arrested. He denied killing the president insisting he was arrested only on suspicion for the shooting of a police officer. Jack Ruby would soon silence Oswald.
Numerous eyewitnesses recounted that they saw rifle smoke and the crackle of a gun from a little grassy knoll right before the under pass on the path of the presidents motorcade. Many said they saw suspicious people lurking on the grassy knoll just seconds before the shots rang out that killed the president.
Still others claimed to have seen the elusive Umbrella man, Pickett fence man, Railroad man, Street sewer man, the three bums, and many other people that had clear shots at the motorcade.
Also, several hundred people reported that men in suits approached them mere minutes after the shooting asking questions on what they saw, if they had taken any photographs or videotape. These men identified themselves as secret service agents and quickly dissolved into the chaos of the crowd.
All the elements of a conspiracy were present. The Warren Commission, the committee elected to investigate the assassination and assess the facts, bungled the investigation at almost every turn. It seemed that the commission was directed to conclude that a single shooter fired all the shots that hit Kennedy and Connelly.
The terms, Grassy Knoll, Magic Bullet, and Back and to the left would become icons to the American culture.
Its been 41 years now and still millions of pages are written, hours upon hours of debates, news print, radio, TV, and the Internet keep the Kennedy assassination fresh in the hearts and minds of the American people, making ever sure that each and every new generation of Americans do not forget this terrible tragedy.
In time, perhaps another 40 years, the entire actual truth will finally see the light of day.

Ruby Guns Down Oswald - Silence The Assassin

Ruby Guns Down Oswald
November 24th, 1963. Dallas, Texas. This is where it all began. Lee Harvey Oswald, already arrested, beaten, and interrogated in connection to the assassination of president John F. Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, was being held at police headquarters waiting to be transferred to a more secure location. Enter Jack Ruby.
Ruby stopped at his dry cleaners and then decided to walk over to the jail where the police were holding Oswald. Ruby walked right in, no one noticed him as the reporters and other security agents concentrated on the door Oswald was going to come through.
Ruby mingled in the crowd positioning himself closer waiting for Oswald to enter and seconds later, the Kennedy Assassination conspiracy began. Ruby shot and killed Oswald at point blank range and his aim was true. Oswald slumped to the ground, still handcuffed to the Texas Marshal assigned to escort him to the county jail.
An hour later, Oswald was pronounced dead and Ruby quickly surrendered and was arrested. Ruby shouted out that he shot Oswald to avenge the death of President Kennedy. Ruby died in prison several years later from cancer.
The seeds of a terrible conspiracy were planted that day. Before Ruby shot Oswald, there was only one gunman, and it was Oswald who acted alone. The next day, people seemed to remember the events at Dealy Plaza a little differently. Perhaps there were shots that came from the little grassy knoll before the underpass. Perhaps there were four shots fired. Perhaps some from the front.
Today, 40 plus years later, after countless books, papers, reports, documentaries, and movies on the assassination each adding or subtracting elements of the actual days events to suit their thesis, many of the younger generation really don’t know what happened that day. Oliver Stone’s movie, JFK, 1991, distorted the facts of the assassination even more adding evidence and events that never occurred. Now it all seems like an old movie.
Fact is, Oswald did shoot Kennedy, hitting him at least once in the back of the head which was the fatal shot. Oswald did assassinate president Kennedy but thanks to Jack Ruby, there will always remain doubt that he acted alone and that a possible second shooter was lurking on the grassy knoll assisting in the assassination to guarantee their objective.
A carefully orchestrated conspiracy plan or simply a dejected lone gunman wanting to make a name for himself. Forty plus years later, hard to tell.
Welcome to the 101 of a conspiracy theory.

    For those of you who want a piece of gen-u-ine con-spir-acy his-to-ry, the gun that Ruby used to kill Oswald is up for auction.
    The owner paid $200,000 for it a few years ago.
    The gun was bought by Ruby for $62.50.
    It’s expected to go for more than a million bucks.
    If I had won the lotto for big bucks, just think what a conversation piece that would make framed on the wall.
    Maybe put it in your bathroom above the toilet as a conversation starter when your buddies come over for poker…
    ” Hey Harry. I was just in Al’s bathroom and guess what he’s got hanging over the toilet… ”

    You suggest Oswald “wanted to make a name for himself”?
    This is the same speculation you accuse others of.
    Among his very few clear statements about the execution of JFK is this straightforward answer to a reporter’s question
    “Why did you shoot the president?”
    “I didnt kill anybody” he said; “I’m just a patsy …”
    That’s not the way I ‘d try to go about ensuring a macho infamy.
    Whatever state of mind he was in, what Oswald said was not the boast of fame-seeking thrill-killers that you suggest.
    I’d love to know your explanation for the evidence seen on the Zapruder film… Backward physics? Magic bullets?

    And yet dickwads like yourself bring up his name and continue the conspiracy. Oswald’s name will live on in history more than most serial killers.

    God told me that the man that killed JFK was a policeman. The killer and shooters name is JD Tippit. One of his co-conspirators is Gayle Marshall Tippit. Both worked in the Dallas Police Department in 1963. These two were paid.

    Ruby didn’t stop at his dry cleaners, he was at the western Union wiring money to one of his stripers. The fact is Oswald was the alleged shooter and always will be alleged.
