What makes me think it was....
The paper trail, to many things came together to fast, way to many very, nice, neat, facts that popped up about Oswald, from the defection to Russia to his support of both sides of the Cuban affair, just way to neatly packaged for me to swallow that whole story.... The single biggest thing though is the Ruby shooting, that is just to coincidental...

What makes me pretty sure it wasn't...
Way to complicated, way to many people involved, I don't think there is anyway that so many people could have ever kept their mouths shut...
If they did, it is the one and only time in American history that it ever happened
To reiterate an earlier point. If you weren't born yet or were too young to be cognizant of the event then the Kennedy assassination is similar to asking who the real Jack the Ripper was or whether Dr. Mudd knew that John Wilkes Booth had shot Lincoln when he set his leg and harbored the fugitive.

If you were old enough then the assassination was a major event in your life, like 9-11 and you will always remember where you were when you heard of it and the emotions that you felt. It is not a distant piece of history to those that experienced it.

I say that to say that for some of us it is not an interesting conundrum of past history. It is a tragic injustice that changed the course of history and the subsequent coverup is the greatest injustice of all.

We don't cry conspiracy regarding the assassination of RFK or the attempts on Governor Wallace, Presidents Reagan or Ford. The assassinations of the Reverend Dr. King and President Kennedy are a different matter.

As far as the 'someone would have talked by now" argument, where is Jimmy Hoffa Sr. and how was he killed ? There has been no Joe Valachi to spill the beans on that one for the past thirty years.
