General Discussion

...especially with the passage of time. Most of the witnesses said all the shots came from the book depository.

Marina Oswald said she took the pictures of Oswald holding the gun....the same gun found on the 6th floor, with 3 empty shells nearby. The gun and shells were ballisticly tied to the two recovered bullets.

The 38 revolver found on Oswald at his arrest was ballisticly tied to Tippits murder.

Oswald was seen at the book depository by several co-workers prior to Kennedy's shooting. Afterwards, the boss told police Oswald was the only employee not present. When he had arrived at the book depository, Oswald told co-workers the package he was carrying contained "curtain rods". The empty package was found near the gun.

If we are to believe every conspiracist, there were at least 30 shooters and 100 conspirators present at Dealy Plaza. They would have been tripping all over each other. Yet there is no photographic evidence, nor any reliable witnesses, who can positively place an assassain on, under, or above Dealy Plaza. Nor has their been one single shell or bullet recovered that wasn't ballisticly tied to Oswald's rifle.

No one has claimed the official investigations are THE definitive answer. They are the best guess based on the available evidence and information. There is NO evidence or information to support the CTs. None. Blockbusting unreleased information is frequently promised, but it never materializes. What "evidence" does get published turns out to be bogus or just flat wrong.

IMO, Oswald was a loser who was in the right place at the right time to be able to squeeze off a few reasonably skilled shots that killed the President. Ruby was also a loser, but his motivation isn't clear. Perhaps he thought he was being a patriot, perhaps he thought Oswald was with the Mob and he was doing them a favor. I doubt the Mob put him up to it. That would be the messiest mob-hit in history. More their style to be subtle....Oswald would have simply "disapppeared", like Hoffa. And if Oswald was working with CIA, etc, they simply would have had a hit-man hidden on the 6th floor, ready to nuetralize Oswald just after he fired. Who would have questioned a G-man killing an assassin in the act?
