Thread: 53 Years Ago Today ..... R.I.P. President John Fitzgereld Kennedy

Lest we forget ...... ;

That was some event. Even back then, we were brainwashed with the media's dotted-line as to the trajectory of the killer's bullet.
Crazy stuff, that!
I often wonder what it may be like had it not happened? A long time ago....

Just finished watching the video of his press conferences. The last of them on Oct 31, 1963. Who would have thought he had 3 weeks to live.

Remember it well!

Sad, game changing day.

I wonder if the full truth will ever be known to the public. I'm not into conspiracies but I dont think we have the full story.

I am not a conspiracy theorist either, but if he was a gunman at all, and not what he said, 'just a patsy', LHO was not the lone gunman. The one thing they didn't figure on was people, like Anthony Zaprueder, filming the event. I don't want to get started ...... but the head shot alone demonstrates that it was not the Carcano with full metal jacket projectiles that did that damage, and the 'magic bullet' ? Give me a break !

Oh NO, Jimmy! Certainly you are NO conspiracy theorist!

On TV in the electronic shop on a submarine repair ship in harbor at San Diego. A whole lot of quiet going on.
May he rest in peace!

My claim to fame for JFK is his service on a PT boat.

Seems the rest is his family/pressures as well as tragedy.
A boat like he served-on has been restored!
