Please don't scream "snuff". We've all seen it; it's part of American history now. This was the first time the Zapruder film was broadcast on TV. Possibly NSFW for the violence. From uploader: "Robert Groden appeared on 'Good Night America' hosted by Geraldo Rivera in 1975. This was the very first time the film that contained the murder of president Kennedy was shown to the public."

Not a lie. Forensic science has proven ballistic wounds can propel victims (or in this case the victim's head) in any number of directions upon exit. JFK was shot by one shooter. Even the infamous magic bullet theory has proven to not be so magical after all. The bullet never took a right turn or floated in midair. Oliver Stone lies to us!!!

Senator Arlen Specter was on Charlie Rose's show (PBS) last night, and a quick question at the end was about his role in the Warren commission championing the single bullet theory. I had no idea that a still acting senator had such a pivotal role in the still contested aftermath of this event.

As a further aside, there was an Australian show I saw once which did an excellent job of examining how a single bullet could have traveled how it was said to, and replicated the shot with gel dummies positioned exactly how the President and the Governor were sitting before the shot(the rear seats were elevated, a fact I had never known), even using the same style gun and ammo Harvey was found with, from the same distance, etc. It was pretty convincing. The head wound with ballistic gel dummy, if I recall correctly, did rock forward with the hit and then backwards in recoil, but it wasn't so much discussed.

Martin Luther and Kennedy. In the day if you had a streak of liberalism in you, you were bound to be a target of assassination. Quite unfortunate. Both individuals were great men for their vision and desire to make the US a better place.

That mess on the presidents face is from the bullet exiting the head, not entering it. You can tell an entry wound from an exit by comparing the mess. The "pin hole" is where the bullet enters, the gaping hole is where it exits. I don't want to sound like a puffed up douche but Iv'e seen it first hand on other bodies. I'm not trying to be a snotty know it all, that's just my expirence. It is possible that the bullet was yawing and caused a much larger than normal entry wound, but I don't think there would be much left of the back of his head....unless the bullet never exited. Sad day in history none the less, I feel for jackie having to witness it happening inches away. What a nightmare.

So here's a exceprt from some medical website describing it:
Exit wounds - as we have already mentioned - are usually larger than the entrance wound and this is because as the round moves through the body of the victim it slows down and explodes within the tissue and surrounding muscle. This slowing down of the projectile means that as it reaches the end of its trajectory it has to force harder to push through. This equates to the exit wound normally looking larger and considerably more destructive than its pre-cursor - the entrance wound.

Don't forget the assassination of RFK, the assassination of Malcolm X, the installation of Pinochet in Chile, the Bay of Pigs invasion, multiple attempts to assassinate Castro, Operation Ajax, the US invasion of Panama, US invasion of Grenada, the 1977 CIA-backed coup in Pakistan, the CIA coup of Guatemala, etc.
