Even the rabbit holes have their own rabbit holes on this one.

I still remember the day this occurred. Mrs Kellogg my 5th grade teacher had her head on her desk crying. The class had just come in from recess and were surprised to see this. It took a few minutes for her to stop crying so she could tell us what happened.

Our own damned Government murdered him ! This was the saddest day of my life, I was only 8 years old sitting on the floor so close to the TV at my grandmas’s house hoping to see JFK, I figured if I got close enough I would get a glimpse of our President . When he was shot I cried like there was no tomorrow . Till this day I’ll never forget that November day .

[Zachary_Walker]

I’ll say this. If you believe it the way it’s told you’re insane

[MiracleFound]

I was in kindergarten and still remember this and the funeral. It was a sad time. Everyone was crying.

[doctorae]

The movie JFK starring Kevin Cosner is the most realistic explanation of the Kennedy assassination I've ever seen.

[patriciastrait]

It's not a secret anymore. We know who killed him.

True space exploration fell when President Kennedy did; God bless and rest your soul President Kennedy

[silver_salvage_savage]

What gets me (since I was a kid) is the infamous Zapruder film. The guy never flinched. Filming someone being shot, and you are downrange and he doesn't duck, run, cover or stop filming. It was just suspicious to me

I was in 8th grade, in English class at the time when someone from the Principal's office came in to the class and told us to go back to our Home Room. It was when we got there that we were told what had happened, and we were all to go home. Walter Cronkite, the head newscaster for CBS, cried when he announced that President Kennedy was dead.

LBJ, Hoover, and the rest. Oswald was, as he said, the patsy.

I will always remember where and when I heard about the assignation. I was 8 years old, on Friday November 22nd 1963
We had just returned from lunch and were back in our seats when my 3rd grade teacher, Mrs stroller, came to the head of the class with her head bowed, and told us. She had us bow our heads together for a minute. Later when I got home from school, my mom was crying. All regular scheduled TV was canceled all weekend. It was very sad. Then, on Sunday morning while watching the news live from Dallas as they were transferring Oswald to the downtown town Dallas jail, he was shot in the chest by Jack Ruby. What a weekend. I believe it was a conspiracy that was headed up by the mafia, who felt double crossed by both the president and his brother Bobby after the election. There is more to the story, but one thing is for sure, you don't double cross the mafia, and not pay for it.

I don't know, but I don't think the shot came from behind him, as is stated. I've shot a few deer in my time, and not one of those shots ever had fragments of anything come out the entry hole or anywhere around it. Everything always goes out the exit hole. Jacqueline Kennedy crawls out the back of the car to retrieve parts of his brain. To me, that means he was shot from the front. I don't know, though I'm not a ballistics expert.

[lonniebarriner]

Oswald was innocent I Think That He Even Tryed To Warn Him Not To Go To Dallas.

I was sitting on the kitchen floor, and my mom was doing dishes. This was in Dormont, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Meisel. Canaan came down from upstairs, and she was a retired English teacher, and she spoke every word perfectly all the time she came down the stairs, and she turned and said Nancy, I can’t remember what number president Kennedy was, but she said John Fitzgerald Kennedy has just been assassinated and it’s like she was made of stone no expression on her face nothing and she just turned and went back upstairs. I’ll never forget that.

[ShanefromSydneyAustralia]

I'm obsessed with this !! I've researched it 35 years and it still baffled me.

[remivoulon]

Not really...I thought the CIA admitted it was them.

[D-train]

the crazy thing their was NOT any news station airing it on live TV cause it was not possible to do that yet. So all the footage that we've ever seen came from private amateurs.

[YoungKasanova]

I'd say the C.I.A. or the FBI definitely was 2 shooters though the 1st shot came from the back but the shot that went into his head definitely came from the direction the car was going the way his body and head shot backwards when his skull fragments went everywhere but R.I.P. JFK
