"...the car brakes...."

Inside job.

Well its interesting how things have come along. i mean now we get to see planes flying into buildings that are rigged with explosives and the joys of suicide bombings. i mean a shooting is just lame this would have looked far better if it was a suicide bomber running into the car and boom.

Moving this video to Throbbin's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

*beg

Sending this video to Beggar's Canyon to plea for a little attention - beg requested by original submitter Throbbin.

For the record, as fun as the movie is, there was an excellent documentary on the History channel which debunked a LOT of what was said in the movie. The biggest issue is that most people get their knowledge of the event from this movie and assume that the "facts" presented are indeed fact.

Take the "magic" bullet for example. In the movie, they position the bodies one right in front of the other. In reality, the seats in the car are at considerably different height and position left to right. When you see the trajectories placed as the bodies were actually positions, the shot is one shot, straight through. I'll see if I can dig up the diagram which shows it...

I wouldn't trust the History Channel with anything to do with history, personally, in my honest opinion, just saying, for the record....



The thing about the magic bullet is that it was "found" in the hospital, on the gurney that Connally had been on (wiki).

And, I'm sorry, I just can't see any way that a bullet could do so much damage and come out looking as if it had been shot into a wad of cotton.

The whole thing about the JFK assassination stinks from top to bottom, just like 9/11. It's official bullshit.

I'm not saying that I know what happened there, but I'll bet money that what we were told happened, didn't.

I believe that documentary is sifted somewhere, or at least a part of it. Pretty sure this is where I first saw it. They present some solid evidence for quite a few things which were contrary to my beliefs previously, but I wasn't satisfied with their explanation for how a shot from the rear could throw the president "back and to the left". Basically they argue that the direction a body falls gives no indication of the direction it was struck from. If Kennedy had simply slumped down into the seat after the headshot, I might accept this, but that's not what I see. I see him being thrown back with some force.

I've been fascinated, and disgusted, by the assassination for a long time now. It's one of those things that feels personally insulting to me, like somebody mugging my grandma. It's a shame that we'll never really know what happened that day. Too many relevant people have died; too much evidence has been destroyed or tainted.

Me personally? It was a triangulated crossfire. You had one shooter in the upper window of the schoolbook depository, one shooter on the grassy knoll, but the killing shot came from behind, on a low flat trajectory from a second or third floor window of the schoolbook depository, or adjacent building.

The "back and to the left" is a result of the bullet entering the right side of the skull from behind, but exiting with a great amount of force (as rifle rounds do) from the right front of the head, the resulting exit blast throwing the head back and to the left. Had the shot came from the front, it would have penetrated his skull, exploding from the rear, throwing his head forward, instead of back.

But that's just my opinion.

We now know The Comedian was the shooter on the grassy knoll.

This video has been declared non-functional; embed code must be fixed within 2 days or it will be sent to the dead pool - declared dead by Hybrid.

"back and to the left" further proof that Oliver Stone knows a lot about making movies but nothing about ballistics, the video clearly shows an EXIT wound, meaning the bullet entered the back of the skull and exited in a spray of JFK out the front.

All physical evidence aside (and I'm not trying to discount the value of the physical evidence as an indication either way of who killed JFK) I think it's telling that the very first thing Robert Kennedy did when he learned of his brother's death was call CIA director John McCone directly and ask "Did you do this?" This was not some deranged conspiracy theorist - this was JFK's own brother and the Attorney General of the United States, and his FIRST reaction was to confront the CIA about the assassination. Yikes.
