What happened in Dealey Plaza that day


The first shot was fired from the sixth floor of the Depository, and missed the vehicle completely. It impacted the center strip of the triple underpass, and a bystander was hit, harmlessly, by a piece of concrete that came up off the strip and hit him in the cheek. Bullet number two was shot from the horizontal, and hit the President between the shoulders, right where the neck meets the back, and it exited out near his Adam's apple, and nicked his tie a little bit. Bullet number three was fired from the sixth floor, same shooter,
and hit Governor Connolly in the upper right quadrant of his back, exited from the front of the right side of his chest, just under his right nipple; it then went through his right hand, which was resting on his leg, and then ended up piercing and penetrating the top of his right thigh. Bullet number four was fired from the ground floor, same shooter, and missed the car completely, and landed harmlessly on the grassy knoll about sixteen feet out in front of the car. Bullet number five was fired from the sixth floor, and effectively killed JFK, as it hit him right square in the area of the head where the top and back of the head meet, and exactly half way between the ears. This was the first accurate shot of the day. Number six was fired from the grassy knoll, from just behind the picket fence, and hit the President on the side of the head. He was hit with a frangible bullet, which exploded on impact, and blew out much of the inside of the President's gray matter. His wife instinctively jumped on the back of the car to retrieve that matter. Once you understand the shooting itself, then you know, by very definition, that you have a conspiracy. Once you realize you have a conspiracy, now it's just a matter of who had the power to keep it covered up all these years.

Where do you think the shooter was located for bullet #2 and #4?

I have not heard this explanation before and am very interested in what you have to say. Who do you think was on the sixth floor? Certainly not Oswald. David Morales and Malcolm Wallace?

reply

Shooter of 2 and 4 was on the first floor of the tsd. I NOW believe it really WAS Oswald on the sixth floor, but that doesn't alter what was going on from the first floor, and from behind the picket fence on the grassy knoll.

I wish you would provide just a bit more information here. I am also interested; however, I don't give out my email addy. Thank you.

If you haven't already, check out JFK: The Smoking Gun...

I pretty much liked the Smoking Gun, although the angle of the fatal bullet just doesn't quite add up to the direction they said it came from. Kennedy's head wend back and to the left, not forward and to the right. Maybe there is a scientific explanation for that one that I don't fully understand.

reply

On another thread, someone addressed that issue. Something about the bullet going so fast that it passes through the skull rather than causing the head to move in that direction. They addressed it much clearer than I just did though. And when the bullet is exiting, that's when the head moves - in the opposite direction.

You'll probably find that thread if you read posts other than just mine. *wink*

A lot of people also believe a shooter was behind a fence near the grassy knoll, and ran into the train yard nearby.

I went to the 6th Floor Museum this past summer. I got to look out the 7th floor window right above where Oswald would have been, and I think it would have been very difficult for him to hit so precisely. There are X's on the road showing where JFK was hit so you can see how far his aim was. That's just my opinion, though.

reply

The momentum of the bullet acts just like anything else: a club, a rock, etc; it would have the effect of moving that which is struck, forward.

As the motorcade was traveling through Dealey Plaza, a loud noise occurred. It may have been a firecracker or a backfire. No one knows for sure. Secret Service agent George Hickey, riding in the left back seat of the followup car directly behind JFK's limo, perceived the loud noise as a gunshot. He picked up an AR-15, chambered a round, and flicked off the safety. He stood on the seat and turned towards the back of the car looking for a target. Seeing none, he turned towards the front of the car, aiming his weapon in the direction of JFK's limo. At that moment, the driver of the followup car, who perceived the loud noise as a tire blowout, applied the brakes to see if he still had steering control. At that moment, Hickey fell backwards, squeezing the handle and trigger of the gun, firing a three-round-burst, hitting, JFK and Governor Connally. A bystander was also hit by a bullet or pavement fragment caused by a ricochet.

Robert Kennedy was informed of the accident shortly after the motorcade reached the hospital. he immediately held a meeting of his closet advisors to decide on a response. RFK decided to spin his brother's death as an assassination. If he told the truth, the Secret Service would have to be disbanded, and the nation would be reminded every November 22 of the incompetence of the government. RFK also decided that an "assassination" was a more dignified end then a stupid accident.

Lee Harvey Oswald was an innocent man who became a patsy to deflect the blame, and the anger of the American public. The news media implemented a massive coverup that continues to this day. Read "Mortal Error" for the ballistics analysis. Read "The Death of A President" for the hints of truth written between the lines of the Official Lies.

What really happened that day was a small, crazy, ego maniac killed the most powerful man in the free world. That that one small little man could do such a thing then spawned 50 years of crackpot conspiracies.

TJ, that pretty much is it. The 3-round burst by a Secret Service agent would have been too fast for what happened. The multiple shooters scenario of the OP has been shown to have been impossible based on the known evidence. Just a few years ago, forensics experts tried to re-create the blood spatter in the car that was left behind after the mayhem. They set up every suggested scenario, from the sewer to the grassy knoll and other buildings that CT believers have suggested. Only one configuration worked to both hit the known targets and leave the required mess. Guess which one. Good guess.
