They are making an old sound reel digital to see how many gunshots were heard.

Could Oliver Stone be right, and that there was a massive conspiracy to kill the president, or was it just one crazy guy with a desire to kill the president? Answers could be found with this new evidence. Or it could just be underwhelming and not prove crap.

Discuss.

 

[darscot]

Even if they proved that it was one big conspiracy no one would care. There is more then enough evidence to show there was more then one shooter already. The film footage of the shot makes it pretty clear.

 

[element]

BACK AND TO THE LEFT!!! BACK AND TO THE LEFT!!

 

[MaddenNFL64]

I know the real truth.

The actual shooter was...

Sam Beckett! :O

NO SAM!

popular evidence says one thing, yet modern forensics over the years has shown pretty clearly that one shooter, three shots is most likley... and that the "magic bullet" was not behaving at all unusually.

I never did finish that episode, and I really wanted to. It looked really good too. Stupid Sci-Fi Channel and putting Quantum Leap in the middle of the day, and showing shit like Anaconda vs Mutated Space Elephants 4: The Vengence.

But yeah, nothing has really been proven with the shooting, and I am always curious as to whether he actually was working alone or not.

 

[Belfast]

No, the real shooter is JFK himself (anyone watch Red Dwarf?)

Yet not one single marksmen could ever get off the number of shots in the alloted time but Oswald did it. It just who funds the study and pays for those modern forensics.

 

[human5892]

It was The Smoking Man.

Duh.

 

[Drexon]

For a deranged lunatic, he looked kinda good.

 

[MrCheez]

I'm just posting to say that Quantum Leap is the best show evaaaar

 

[MrPing1000]

"I thank you for giving me this ahh opportunity to be reborn"


And i think there were 42 shots fired

 

[Mason]

I can't believe people still cling to the magic bullet theory. Every justification I've read on "how the bullet wasn't acting unusual at all" cracked me up.

 

[bjork]

"How many shots were fired at JFK?"

Enough to get the job done.

 

[Pattergen]

Ding Ding Ding!

 

[calder]

I promised myself years ago I would never, ever do another JFK/moon landing hoax thread. But you guys are sure making it hard. :\

HE WAS A GODDAMN MARINE!!

you all can believe whatever you want... I've seen shows that make "compelling" arguments for the moon landings being faked. I don't know what study says that no other marksman could do it, but I've seen a number of experts interviewed about it, and the shots fired versus time alloted is not an issue to them.

Have they done an experiment like this on Myth Busters?

 

[LakeEarth]

That's the thing. You hear about 'proof' these conspiracy theorists have and it's like... are they just saying "these people say this" or is it actual fact? Like how moon conspirasists say that 'scientists say there is no way the shadows can look like that', when actual scientists say it's just as it should be.

 

[levious]

I believe there is a corellation between the amount of expert conspiracy theories and the growing availibility of PhDs through correspondence school.

Wasn't it when they did that test they didn't account for the fact that only two shots needed to be fired within the time frame, not three? Remember the clock starts after shot one is fired so he only needs to get two more shots off in the time frame which is like 3 seconds a shot. Before they were trying to do all three within the given time frame.

 

[3rdman]

Um...even our own government has said that there was a probable conspiracy. At least according to the House Select Commitee on Assassinations.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

you fools, it was obvious that kennedy was not complying with what the patriots wanted. not the first president that tried to wrestle control away from them. but he paid the price juts like all the others before and after......

 

[Litigation Manuel]

Wrong! All wrong!

Obviously, Lee Harvey Oswald killed JFK so he could get the Jack Ruby! The most precious of all the rubies!

? I've seen a couple of programs that set up the same variables and have marksmen take the same shots -- even under the time allotted

so unless the discovery channel is in on the conspiracy and editing their own video extensivly....

Oswald was also an expert marksmen, despite what you hear in that movie.

I believe it was one guy. I believe Oswald did shoot him, or at least SOMEONE up in that building shot JFK.

The real question I still wonder is WHY

 

[isamu]

Lee Ermy ROCKS!

 

[Error Macro]

Watch this, and put your ass in the know.

 

[Malakhov]

Kennedy won the election with the help of the mob.
Kennedy turned his back on the mob afterwards, declaring war to the mob.
Dead Kennedy.

It's that simple.

 

[ManaByte]

JFK was shot by the secret service agent in the front seat of the car. That's why there's an edit in every video of the day.

True, but don't forget that LBJ hated him as well.

[Hitokage]

Oswald was certified for sniping distances farther than the one involved in JFK's assassination, so it's hardly suprising he was able to pull it off.

 

[Matlock]

Note that he doesn't go back and to the left until Jackie puts her hand to him.

And then she scrambles, a secret service officer grabs right in front of her hand...

Well, it's obvious really.

Uh, what is?


Hito, I'm begging you to drag me ouf of this thread. Begging.

 

[Matlock]

JACKIE SHOT JFK, CALDER.

 

[Ollie Pooch]

in MID AIR, mind you

 

[JoshuaJSlone]

For a deranged lunatic, he looked kinda good.

I know the Quantum Leap episode has already been referenced, but that picture really does look a lot like Scott Bakula.

 

[calder]

Ooooh, right. I thought you meant something LESS obvious.
