9. How do you figure?
I say he got a shoulder shot and the shot that hit Connally's wrist.

JFK's fatal headshot came from the front... no doubt about it.

11. Exactly HOW do you figure...
that the head shot came from the FRONT?

It blew out the right front of Kennedy's skull; you can see that on the Zapruder film (and it also blew a huge chunk of his brain forward and up). The head went "back and to the left" in that famous phrase from Stone's movie because of simple physics: Action, reaction.

14. But the original and famous autopsy images taken from
"above" the head clearly show an exit wound in the hairy part of Kennedy's scalp, toward the back, and suggesting a low angle entry.

The revised autopsy images (released out of "respect" for Mrs. Kennedy) show a clean entry wound where the original exit wound was.

5. Manchurian-style patsy. One of two shooters.
That's my belief.

6. I agree that he was part of the picture ...
but there were others. It was a conspiracy!

Maybe our grandchildren will find out. We won't in our lifetime (what really happened).

8. We'll never find out. By the time the info is released...
It'll just be so many sheets with every third word blacked out, just like everything else that's ever been released under the FOIA.

"In ten years or so we'll leak the truth, but by then it's only so much paper"--Dead Kennedys(!)

12. There's no question Oswald was involved
And I don't think there's any question that there was a conspiracy. Even if you do not believe there was a second shooter, there's little doubt that there were others with knowledge of the plan to kill JFK.

13. I would love to wager every planetary penny
That Oswald acted alone. Lock of all eternity. One of the great litmus tests, in fact the best one.
