(17,064 posts)CTers have anything but open minds. They form a conclusion, then discard all the evidence that doesn't support the conclusion, and invent "facts" to support their conclusion and call it evidence. Knock yourselves out...it's great fiction and sells a lot of books and movies. But it's laughable they're seeking "the truth"...which is why rhey're placed in the same category as birthers, 911 truthers, etc. If they are subjects of derisiin, it's because they've earned themselves that status.
People who believe Oswald was the lone assassin don't "buy the government's story lock stock and barrell". They have looked at all the available evidence, and seen none that implicates a conspiracy. While it's possible that evidence will surface of a conspiracy, its unlikely after 50 years, and becomes ever more unlikely as time passes. Any unseen evidence at this point likely is of a embarrassing nature, or reveals intelligence connections, neither of which proves govt involvement in the actual assassination.
