Have
you been watching all those History and Discovery channel shows on the
JFK assassination? I love this stuff and there's been a ton of great
footage that I've never seen before. Surprisingly, after 50 years all
these shows seem to believe that Kennedy was shot by Lee Harvey Oswald,
all by himself.
Vincent
Bugliosi who wrote a book defending
the Warren Commission said that Jack Ruby, who ran nightclubs owned by
the mob, wasn't a mobster
himself. His "proof" is that official phone company records show that
Ruby made 50 (50!!!) phone calls to known mobsters in the weeks before
the assassination. How is that proof Ruby WASN'T a mobster? It is
because the reason Ruby made the calls was because the Strippers' Union
(strippers have a union?) was giving him problems, the Union was run by
the mob and he was calling the mobsters to try and work out the
problems. Why would Ruby have Stripper Union problems if he himself was
in the mob? In other words, a dog is an animal, a cat is an animal,
therefore a dog is a cat.
If
the Motion
Picture Screen Cartoonist Union was giving me problems I would not make
50 calls to the various union officials' home phone numbers unless I
knew them personally. I would be calling the Union office. How did
Bugliosi get this info? Is this the reason Jack Ruby gave to explain
calling mobsters 50 times?
I
love how these "science" shows will state a fact (phone records shows
Ruby made 50 calls to known mobsters) then follow that with a "fact"
that is completely unsubstantiated
( he was calling about Union problems) which leads to the
"obvious" conclusion (if Ruby was a mobster he wouldn't have Stripper Union problems), or "a dog is a cat".
There
was a great show about the "lost bullet" that did make sense. That one
said that all the witnesses heard three shots and the Zapruder film
showed Kennedy getting shot twice. They assumed the first shot hit him
in the back and the head shot was the last one fired. Therefore, the
second shot missed, hit some curb which
sent a chip up and hit a bystander drawing blood. But the Zapruder film
showed the limo making the turn then was turned off for a few seconds
and picked up the limo again right before the back shot. The "first"
shot that hit Kennedy was not the first shot heard. That one was
reflected, bounced off the curb and hurt the bystander. The second shot
hit Kennedy in the back and the third one hit him in the head so the
shooter didn't need to shoot all three shots within 5.6 seconds but only
the last two.
A
few days after the
assassination investigators shot some footage from the window
seeing what the shooter saw and that film shows a hole in the metal
frame of a traffic light that was suspended over the street and under
which the limo passed at right where you'd think the shooter would have
had the best shot. This show said that Oswald's first shot, when the
limo was the closest, hit the traffic light. The ejected shell fell
across the floor. He then had to reposition himself to make the next two
shots and those shells lay next to each other on the floor, away from
the first shell.
This show was good and pretty
convincing.
