do you think my theory on the JFK Assassiantion is believeable?

Question

You have got to be a dummy to believe the Magic Bullet Theory. And believe Lee Harvey Oswald fired 3 shots in 5 or 6 seconds. The scope on Oswald's rifle was messed up. The rifle was old. The bolt sticks. It takes over 2 seconds to just reload the damn thing.

I believe the Mafia killed President Kennedy. Three shooters were involved in the assassination. Two behind and one in front. I've come to the conlclusion 5 shots were fired. President Kennedy was hit by three bullets. Governor Connally was hit by one. One bullet missed the limousine and hit a curb.

I've been reading "Double Cross" by Chuck Giancana. And "The Kennedy Contract" by John H. Davis.

I've read the entire Warren Report. The Grassy Knoll is not mentioned once in the hole report. And the witnesses who claimed to hear shots from the Knoll were not told to testify for the Warren Commison. And all the doctors who saw Kennedy's body all say they saw the back of his head blown off. They can't all be wrong. Comments?

The Zapruder Film shows 5 reactions to gunfire. Many believe the first shot was fired atframe 160. I believe the first shot was fired much later.

Frame 189, shot 1: Hit Kennedy in the throat (Grassy Knoll)

Frame 228, shot 2: Hit Kennedy in the back (Dal-Tex building)

Frame 236, shot 3: Hit Governor Connally (Book Depository)

Frame 295, shot 4: missed the car and hit curb (Dal-Tex building)

Frame 313, shot 5: Hit Kenendy in the head (Grassy Knoll)

It was a classic military styled ambush. A triangular crossfire. Three sniper teams.

Team A: The Dal-Tex building (Second Floor)

Team B: The Texas School Book Depository (Sixth Floor) Oswald was not one of the shooters.

Team C: The Grassy Knoll (behind the wooden fence)

Answer 1

I have always believed something similar!! No way he did it alone, and why would Jack Ruby a known mobster kill him to silence him?

Sure it has a TON of merit.

Answer 2

I think you need to do more research. Connelly was seated a bit below and to the left of JFK. This lined him up well for a bullet to pass through them both. The bullet used was a long skinny 6.5 millimeter full metal jacket (except at the base) 162 grain projectile that penetrates flesh very well.

The scope on the rifle was a cheap Japanese model, but with decent glass. It may have been damaged after the shooting when Oswald tossed (or put down) the rifle behind boxes on the sixth floor.

Old rifles can still shoot ok. A tiny bit of oil on the bolt where it contacts the receiver makes for slick and fast bolt operation.

I own an old Carcano that is the same age as the one used by Oswald. It is the same caliber and configuration and has a 4 power scope mounted off center to allow loading the magazine. It is easy to shoot, and then cycle the bolt twice for two follow-up shots. If I go as fast as I can, I can do it in less than 4 seconds. If I shoot as fast I can to hit a target at 100 yards (jfk range was <90 yards) then it takes me about 5 seconds, slowing down to 6 seconds for three rounds make me more accurate.

The rifle is a real piece of crap, but hitting a man sized target 100 yards away is a piece of cake.

Perhaps you should visit the site.

I don't think you realize how small that area is.

Stand on the grassy knoll, and imagine raising and firing a rifle with 30-50 people standing within 50 feet of you (including cops, WWII vets who know guns, and Zabruder with his camera) without being detected in a very obvious manner.

Besides, the grassy knoll does not provide the angle for the head shot. The bullet stayed exclusively on the right side of his head. SInce the knoll was 25 degrees to the right of Kennedy's head, a shot from there would either have caught less of his head, or would have exited through the left side. It did neither.

Visit the site. Check the angles and distances for yourself. Still not convinced? If you dare, stand on the knoll and light a fire cracker while people are in the area. Unlike your fictitious gunmen, you will be seen and noticed immediately.

Answer 4

Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. But, he was out to kill the man who had approved his undesirable discharge from the Marine Corps Reserve for leaving the U.S. without advanced permission from Headquarters, Marine Corps. That man was the Secretary of the Navy at the time: John Connally.
Oswald took a bad lead with the rifle, fired a round which missed (The initial blur of the limo's front bumper on the Zapruder film. Caused by Zapruder reacting to the noise). Oswald continued firing and shot Kennedy.
Weeks before the events of November 22nd Oswald had tried to kill General Edwin J. Walker who had retired from the Army. Walker, as Commander of U.S. Forces Berlin had endorsed the movement of Oswald's discharge papers from the military mail system into a diplomatic pouch to be transmitted to the U.S. Embassy in Moscow for delivery to Oswald.
After Oswald escaped from the Texas Book Repository, he was accosted by a Dallas Police officer. That officer didn't yell: "Hey you!". He yelled: "Hey Oswald!". That's because that officer,during his time as a Marine clerk with the Security Guard detachment at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, had personally given Oswald his discharge papers and endorsed that delivery in writing. At the time was Lance Corporal J.D. Tippett. Oswald shot him dead.
Oswald had the names of the three people who had "persecuted" him and wrecked his life in the process. He missed one, wounded a second and killed the third. President Kennedy was an innocent bystander!

Answer 5

Americans love conspiracy stories. Some people have made a career out of writing on these stories. It was true of Lincoln and has continued to this day. Sorry but I accept the Oswald version. I do wonder if some knew of his plan and let it happen. But that is a far as I go.
