JFK was the victim of a disease called Addison's. Look it up on the web. He was in almost constant pain, and was probably drugged up most of the time, just to be able to function. Sitting in a limo like that must have been very uncomfortable for him. My guess is that whatever could be done to make him more comfortable without being real obvious was done, just as the true nature of FDR's disability was well hidden while in office.Being in my 20's, I was nowhere near this point in history. But it does interest me. One thing that just hit me while reading this thread is that some have mentioned Kennedy was strapped into 2 corsets and was virtually unable to move. Who suggested this precaution to Kennedy? Or was it insisted upon rather than suggested? A sitting target who is unable to move...Hmmm, does that seem convenient to anyone else?
This from a guy with four posts.MASSAD AYOOB, IMHO has gotten to big for his britches.
Good point. 250,000 deer will be shot in the head while riding in a car at 25 mph. In fact, nobody has yet demonstrated that they can dupe the shots Oswald was supposed to have made. Yeah, they work the bolt and fire, but they don't HIT.
Also this does NOT mean a huge consipiracy. It's not a binary choice between sole Oswald and a huge consipracy involving the CIA and Cuba. It can be simply 2 or 3 guys. It's not a choice between 1 guy and 1,000 guys.
Seems like tons of internet commandos malign the carcano rifle, yet I read on surplusrifle.com that it works just fine. A recent shotgun news article on the carcano was pretty positive as well. I can't say for myself because I have never handled or fired one.
Contrary to what has been espoused here, I should think that it is SLOWER (if anything) to fire from a left hand stance with right hand on the bolt, than it is shooting from a right hand position.
