The J.F.K. Conspiracy

The J.F.K. Conspiracy

Time after time again we are told in our schools, our homes, and by our media that Lee

Harvey Oswald acted alone in the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy. How can

this conclusion by made about a case that was never completely solved? If we as Americans

accept the government given "truth," such as in this case, without questioning how they came to

their conclusion, then what would stop the government from altering other "truths" given to the

general public. Why wouldn't they instead help out their own cause instead of the helping out the

good of the country by creating false conclusions that would aid their selfish motives. This is why

it is essential that we as Americans must not accept the single assassin theory given to us

regarding John F. Kennedy's assassination.

Friday, November 22, 1963, as the president was traveling through the city of Dallas,

Texas, hundreds of spectators lined the streets to watch President John F. Kennedy parade

through in his presidential limousine. More than half of the spectators were using cameras

trying to capture the brief moment when the president, the first lady, and Texas Governor John

Connally's rare motorcade passed by. At about 12:30 just as the secret service was beginning

to pat themselves on the back for completing a successful parade, a gun shot was fired, striking

the president in the upper back. Slightly more than one second later a second shot rang out,

and Governor Connally collapsed into his wife's arms. Finally, a third shot was fired that struck

the president in the back of the skull causing massive brain damage and ultimately, death.

...rty could thrust its hand into the past and say of this or that event, it never

happened- that was surely more terrifying than mere torture and death." This quote relates to

the government censorship of information to the general public such was the case when the

Warren Commission gave their delusive conclusion. So where do we draw the line on the

amount of say our government can have regarding what the general public is told and what they

are sheltered from? Do we continue to allow the government the power to alter facts and make

false conclusions, and possibly even adjust our past history just like in 1984 ? In order to keep

these totalitarian ideas away from our government we as Americans must not let the "truth" be

handed to us by the government with no questions asked. Do not accept the single

assassin theory.
