    Here he comes! Heading passed the Texas Book Depository. Bang, bang, bang, bang. Our thirty-fifth president John F. Kennedy was shot, and died instantly. How many shooters were there? How many shots were there really? Who was this Lee Harvey Oswald? Why did Jack Ruby kill Oswald? These are the mysteries of JFK’s assassination. There are many conspiracies to his assassination, like the official Warren Commission report of 1964. I have a theory there were multiple shooters. There were many shooters, because of how many shots there were, and the autopsy photos of JFK and the bullet wounds in the governor. This will all tie into my conspiracy.…

    At 12:30pm, on the 22nd of November, 1963, President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, is shot once through the throat, before being mortally wounded by a second shot, this time to the head.

    On November 22, 1963, president John F. Kennedy was in Dallas, Texas for a speech at the Dealey Plaza. On his way there, in an open convertible, instead of going down Dallas’ Main St., which they planned to, they decided to go down Elm St. where there were more buildings and a better crowd view. On going down Elm St. now, there were three shots. Two of the shots hit the president, one in the neck and one in the head, and the third shot hit the governor. Ninety seconds after the shots, officers rushed into the Texas School Book Depository to find a man named Lee Harvey Oswald eating his lunch very calmly on the second floor and a sniper rifle on the sixth floor.

    President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963 at Dallas TX. The police thought that Lee Harvey Oswald, but many people speculate that he was part of a bigger conspiracy or that he wasn’t even the killer. The government released an investigation team called the Warren Commission. What leads a lot of these theories is that the Warren Commission ignored important information. On the day of the shooting, as the motorcade came down the street, three shots coming from the sixth floor at the Texas School Book Depository ( where Oswald worked) in less than 10 seconds. This is when Kennedy died. Within 15 minutes of the crime, there was a description of Oswald given to the police and…

    There were many eyewitnesses that saw Oswald kill Kennedy. There were sightings of Oswald in all the right places to prove he was the assassin. According to the website jfk library.com, the FBI proved that it was Oswald who killed Kennedy because he used the same gun and bullets that went with the gun that shot Kennedy providing undeniable evidence. The motive was that Oswald liked Kennedy, but maybe he was too big of a fan. He followed Kennedy’s actions too closely. Oswald was weird, as well as an outsider and a loner, which makes me believe that he might have been stalking Kennedy. Because there are eyewitnesses, evidence, and motive, I still believe that Oswald was the lone assassin who killed President…

    Plotting and executing a terrorist attack without commands from an organization represents a deadly tradition. In the nineteenth century, Mikhail Bakunin, the infamous Russian anarchist, described theconcept of "propaganda by deed" and advocated that solitary assassins should kill individuals who represented the corrupt social structure. Among other things, acting individually allowed anarchists to avoid being bogged down by the coercive power usually associated with large, hierarchal organizations. Although in the early 1900's lone wolf terrorism fell out of favor with many anarchists, terrorism by single perpetrators accelerated later in the century. Lone wolves killed 7% of United States terrorism victims during 1955-1978, a rate that increased…
