What Americans Fear Most In The JFK Assassination, Part 1

[GPIDEAL]

Thank you for this post.

You're welcome.

As Bugliosi said, the JFK Assassination is a bottomless pit.

Lol. I’m obsessed with JFK. I went there for Canadian Thanksgiving weekend last year. A 5 day weekend. Awesome amazing blast of a weekend. Landing in Dallas, spent the day in Dealey Plaza, then took a night drive for over four hours to San Antonio through a rapid electricity knock out lightning storm, which I later found out produced a tornado during my pull over nap near Waco. Lol. Went to Six Flags Fiesta, and had tickets to the Austin City Lights festival and saw The Cure for me, and Billy Eilish for my daughter. Austin 90 minute drive from San Antonio. Departed from San Antonio airport back to Toronto at the end.

Aside from my totally off point trip log.....

That was my first time at the Sixth Floor Museum. They have on the museum level chronological order of Kennedy‘s presidency history up until his assassination. An audio headphone guide type thing. Press the number to hear about each exhibit that is also numbered etc etc. They have a replica area in sealed off plexiglass casing, of the way the school book depository would’ve looked with certain crates and boxes etc etc. then they have a window which is also a replica of the window Oswald would’ve shot from, and the window overlooks the triple underpass. I posted a photo from looking out of that window, another post I made in this thread. BUT this is the cool part, there’s a private staircase near the elevators up to the museum, that goes up to the actual window Oswald shot from. I didn’t go up there so I don’t know what’s up there or how it looks, but it’s a private staircase that goes directly to the actual window, and this is situated beside the elevator entry area of the museum. But from the museum level itself, with the picture I posted, it’s apparently one floor directly underneath the actual window. This one floor lower replica window, is on the museum level directly beneath. Pretty awesome experience. And this is all while parking my rental car, behind the grassy knoll.

I have tons of videos and pictures from this day. Just an amazing experience. The buzz in the area, cannot be put into words. I didn’t even know about the museum until a month before I went. They must’ve gone through all sorts of changes in 10 years. I would’ve figured the building was still the school book depository, before I was even aware that it was a museum.

The first time I was there was in 2003 I think, for the 40th anniversary. I think the sniper's lair was sealed off with Plexiglass, but I took a photo from the window just next to it.

I have met the late James Tague, who was wounded by either a concrete chip or bullet fragment to his face, as well as Ernst Brandt, who was a bystander along the sidewalk watching the motorcade as it passed by. I also spoke to Bill Newman I think 3 years ago or so. I asked him if he stayed in touch with other witnesses, but unlike today, there was no social media and everybody pretty well minded their own business. I've met the so called Babushka Lady, Beverly Oliver. Researcher and author Robert Groden too, who sets up a table at the top of the steps on the Grassy Knoll to see his books and DVDs. He's the one who analyzed the Z film and published frames 335 to 337 which show a lateral view of JFKs head with the avulsion at the rear (like what I showed up above), proving an exit wound to the back of the head. He claimed those frames were of enormous historical importance. My brother visited the 6th Floor Museum when he toured with a band in the early 90s and brought me a souvenir book. Interestingly, Gary Mack became the Curator but changed his tone from conspiracy advocate (he was partly behind the Badgeman image story) to keeper of the official version. He passed away a couple of years ago or so.

BTW, you should also check out the book by the late Sherry Fiester, who was a CSI that examined the evidence in this case to conclude that the fatal shot was not from the Grassy Knoll, but from the South Knoll, since JFK's head was slightly rotated to the left such that a shot to his temple would exit out the right rear (the exit wound observed by the Parkland Doctors). She concluded that any shot from behind the picket fence would have exited the left side of JFK's head, which is not the case. I think her findings have merit. Although, frangible bullets, cavitation, etc. can result in non-linear wounds. Her book is entitled, Enemy of the Truth - Myths, Forensics, and the Kennedy Assassination.

I think that it's also possible that a shot could have been made from within the sewer opening along Elm Street.

There are even more incredible stories that I don't have time to get into right at the moment. However, let me leave you with two, amazing declassified files for your reading pleasure:
