Description
the conspiracy people claims there was a second shooter on the far side of the street during the assassination of President Kennedy. the parking lot was not there but added to handle the load of tourists wanting to visit the museum in the Texas School Book Depository Building where Oswald shot the bullets that robbed the Kennedy family of a father/husband and the president USA
and
On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy, Texas Governor John Connally, their wives and two Secret Service agents boarded an open-topped limousine for a motorcade ride through Dallas. As enthusiastic crowds cheered them on, Connally wife turned to Kennedy and said, Mr. President, you can't say Dallas doesn't love you. Just seconds later, shots rang out from what was later determined to be the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository Building. The gunfire fatally wounded JFK, sending a nation into mourning and triggering countless conspiracy theories. Yet he was not the only victim that day. Fifty years later, take a look at the politician, the policeman and the car salesman who were caught in the line of fire.

We'll never know the real truth, but the truth they want us to know... and that's just one of sooo many revealed "truths"... great view, Richard!

It's definitely something to think about, that's for sure. Who knows if the truth will ever come to surface, but I do believe there is a link to many other "incidents" that happen, and I have my own personal theories about all the World "leaders". I like how you've taken this photograph from this view... an inconspicuous, birds-eye, and almost "panopticon" view is the way it actually is, in my own belief. The watchers from a distance. Amazing how from here, it seems as though everything and everyone are just as small as squashable bugs, and can be manipulated..... a wonderful tidbit for thought, thank you, Dear Richard!

It will be a long, long time before we discover the whole truth of that day. But, it seems to me that Oswald wasn't the expert marksman that they say he was. If it was his shot that killed JFK, it was a fluke.

I recall the day when John F Kennedy was shot. My Dad picked me up at school and when I entered his car, a 1953 Chevy, Dad informed me the President of the USA had been shot. I thought to myself, this can not be. The President of the USA is the most powerful man on the planet and bullets do not kill Superman... Not knowing at the time three Presidents prior to Kennedy had been assassinated. I later learned their names... Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield and William McKinley... I think my world changed after November 22, 1963 as far as being naive and innocent...

Wonderful history info about Tibbits family being supported! Unfortunatly 'the truth' is not going to change anything now! Its just another curioisty in a long line of messups and misinformation by those in power at the time! I can not ever forgive LBJ for having Jacqueline attend his swearing in on the plane!
