In reply to the discussion: 51 years ago President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. Case not closed at all. [View all]red dog 1
(31,767 posts)So I was sleeping in when the phone woke me up,
it was my Mom telling me that the President had been shot
Ever since, I've been reading anything I could get my hands on about the JFK assassination, including going to the San Francisco Main Library, using the Periodical Index, many, many times.(This was long before computers)
I've read many books on the subject, some good, some bad.
IMO, The Warren Commission report was a "whitewash"
The "magic bullet theory" is pure fiction created by Sen Arlen Spector
Those who believe The Warren Commission Report stating that "Oswald acted alone" should read the following:
"Report of the Select Committee on Assassinations of the U.S. House of Representatives"
C. "The Committee believes, on the basis of the evidence available to it, that President
John F. Kennedy was probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy."

"Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence Activities"
http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/investigations/ChurchCommittee.htm
In my opinion, the best and most thoroughly researched book on the subject is:
"The Assassinations: Dallas and Beyond, A guide to cover-ups and investigations" [1976]
By Professor Peter Dale Scott (U.C. Berkeley)
