I think probably he did! Just an odd thing that happened...

I think you're right. Why? Have you heard anyone implicate the mob or CIA? Where could I find this person? Haha just kidding. I don't know. It would have been tough for one person to do it alone, but I don't think it was impossible. The whole situation was just very odd the way things went down and how evidence just doesn't seem to add up. It is unfortunate though that our country lost its youngest Irish-Catholic president; he could've been one of the finest we've seen.
Also, if you are patient, all government documents are opened to the public after a certain period of like 50 years, so eventually the truth will be known.

They just had a special on the History Channel tonight and some of you don't have your facts together.
Oswald was in the Marines for 3 years and he had an excellent shooting record with that particular type rifle that was used to kill Kennedy. They showed two pages in his marksman book where he hit "48" out of 50 and "49" out of 50 on the target in rapid fire succession.
He was an excellent marksman and the gun he had was proven to be the one that killed JFK and injured the Governor. An older gentleman then demonstrated how he could shoot the same kind of rifle three times in 7.2 seconds. I think any marksman in any branch of the service or on any police department will tell you it can be done, especially SWAT who is very well trained in weaponry.
One thing I found suspicious was right after JFK was pronounced dead, one of LBJs first comments was "It's a conspiracy". Why would anyone make a comment like that before any investigation was ever done? I've heard other speculation in the past that many think LBJ had a hand in this.
And the movie "JFK" has been proven to be wrong in several ways, something else they covered. I remember when alot of this was going on, I always felt there was a conspiracy of some kind but, accept the facts folks. We'll never know the complete truth and it's a waste of money to keep digging into it.

Jimmy "the Weisel" Frattiano claimed that Giancana (the then Boss of Bosses out of Chicago) gave the go ahead for Marcello (of New Orleans) to carry out the assassination. It involved Castro (who had a grudge after finding out the CIA was behind the Bay of Pigs Invastion) so he got a patsy (Oswald) from the Russians to carry-out the deed. Marcello's beef was a result of RFK's investigations into organized crime. To cover the link to the Mafia, Marcello had Jack Ruby (a two bit night club owner in the Marcello organization) take out Oswald to seal his lips.
Giancana's beef with JFK was his impression that JFK renigged on promises to leave the Mafia alone since he felt he pulled strings in Chicago to get him elected.
Several weeks before the assassination, Oswald met with Cuban agents in Mexico. For inexplicable reasons, the FBI agents who were following up the Cuban connection as a part of the Warren Commission investigation, were recalled

no, i do not think so. He would have to be a crack shot to be able to shoot 3 times and hit the target so precisely of a moving target. And the fact of eyewitnesses saying they heard gunfire and saw the smoke from the weapons coming from the area on the ground behind them. no one took any video of the Book Depository, but they did of the grassy knoll and the wooded area. There were so many people there, that there could not be a definite agreement from them where the shots came from. And what is most suspicious of all is the fact that Jackie Kennedy climbed out of the vehicle over John. It would seem to me that the natural human reaction would be to hide low where you couldn't be seen. That to me is a huge red flag.

No way. Lee Harvey Oswald was what is called a "Manchurian Candidate". He was "programmed" to assassinate JFK and was simply a scapegoat.

It was a mafia-cia type of thing, i've heard. Kennedy had "promised" to "dismantle" the cia--not wise to threaten the NWO operations, even back then :)))

It is quite possible Vicky, everything points to it, but everything says 'scapegoat' as well. Who was behind it all? It couldn't have been an ex military sharpshooter all on his own.

No. Most people no longer accept that version.
