If JFK was shot from the front, why did a piece of his brain land on the Texas governor who was sitting in front of Kennedy?

The reason none of the above conspiracy buff answers have really addressed your question is that the shot came from high, behind and slightly to the right of the limo. Ballistics show that it conclusivly could only have come from one place and that place was The Texas School Book Depository building. Specifically, a sixth floor window of the building where Lee harvey Oswald was in the act of firing his rife and murdering President Kennedy.

Those who claim that Kennedy's head moves back as struck are actually providing evidence of the shot coming from behind but are simply too ignorant to realize it. Oswald was using a very high velocity rifle and firing very small full metal jacket military surplus rounds. The bullets being so small, little more than a 22 caliber for those of you (which appears to be most) who don't understand ballistics, it means that the rounds had a very slight hydrostatic impact and since they were full metal jackets they were designed for maximum penetration and did not mushroom on impact. This accounts for Governor Connolly being struck by the second round fired, the so called "magic" bullet which passed through Kennedy and then Connolly. As the two men line up almost perfectly if the shots are coming from Oswald's sniper nest, a full metal jacketed bullet would only be magic if Connolly wasn't struck. Because the round had so much powder behind it, it was flat screaming, it would have exited pulling matter behind it with far more force than had been exerted by the impact. In a nut shell that means that the backwards motion of President Kennedy's head is incontrovertible proof that the shot came from behind. The physics are there for those smart enough to understand them and there is no evidence that any shot that struck either man came from the now famous Grassy Knoll.

The exit wound to President Kennedy's head was not in the back but instead high and just slightly forward of his right ear. Since President Kennedy's head was tilted down at the time of impact and the round struck at a shallow angle that is, again, consistant with the assassin firing from high, behind and to the right of the President.

Most people just parrot back what they were told in Oliver Stone's joke of a movie "JFK". There has yet to be a serious movie made that examined the Kennedy Assassination and "Executive Action" is a laughable farce that ranks with "Billy the Kid vs Dracula" for historical authanticity. A few years ago the History Channel did an outstanding special on the assassination which destroyed the most common of the conspiracy myths but I'm afraid that a great many people would prefer that Hollywood do their thinking for them.

I apprecaite your asking this question but don't expect it to be recieved well. Many people take the Kennedy Assassination Mythos on faith alone and would rather ignore the evidence. You see the evidence contradicts their cherished fantasies and as such must be dismissed out of hand. Otherwise they'd have to face up the notion that a nobody like Lee Harvey Oswald killed one of the most important and best protected men in the world. If that is the case then what does it say about their own security? The same sort of mindless hysteria and evidence denial is found in the "9/11 was an inside job" drivel spouted by this generations crop of conspiracy freaks and the Huey Long Assassination bears not even a passing resemblance to the Kennedy Assassination. Long was shot indoors, at close range, with a pistol by Dr. Weiss. Although there is a good chance that the fatal wound was a ricochet fired by one of Long's bodyguards it a totally different sort of case. Prior to the Kennedy Assassination the Long story was all the rage just as the Kennedy myths have been eclipsed by 9/11 myths Just remember, you can lead a moron to the evidence but you can't make him think.
Good try all the same.

You are correct to a very large extent, but lets also examine how many people were involved in the planning and execution of the illegal and conspired invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan. People are hardly jumping out of the woodwork to tell the truth, why? who knows, but what we do know is that anyone who does speak out is branded a nut job, maverick or someone with a grudge, not to mention all the other labels. The Holocaust is a classic example whereupon anyone who even questions the validity of it is the above, it becomes a form of obsessive religion a conspiracy if you will to keep this in the social consciousness. However its easy to give you the benefit of the doubt on what you are saying, but that does not mean that governments do not conspire in other ways, in Micro rather than Macro ways, they surely manipulate and misdirect as they say 'in the public interest' so its not the size of the conspiracy as you point out but the nature of the conspiracy. I have no doubt that on balance some foreign governments had prior knowledge of 9-11, how they choose to use it is the real conspiracy.

It was from the entrance wound. If you view the video you can see the back of his head being torn away by the bullet as it exited. It's horrible.

The book depository was not at the correct angle to cause this type of damage. The bullet came from the front.

I have stood in the spot where he was shot, been on the grassy knoll, and been in the book depository and have viewed all of the angles.

"The size of the back head wound, in these descriptions, indicates it was the exit wound and that a second shooter from the front delivered the fatal head shot. Several eyewitnesses who were close to the President – and had a good view – saw the back of the President’s head "blasted out", which is consistent with being shot from the front."

Rent a very obscure old movie called "Executive Action" if you can find it. It was pulled from the movies after about a week when I was in high school back in the 70's. Also, read the book about the govenor or Louisiana at the time, Huey Long, I believe. It also has some insight into what happened.
AND BTW...Your answer to my question was really dumb. You obviously have no life in real relationships.

If you look at pictures from that day, you'll see blood and brain matter spraying in all directions. Check out the Zapruder film and you'll see that fact. His head jerked backwards, blood and brain matter showered into the air, all evidence a high-caliber bullet struck from the front.
