I can’t come up with any retort to that

So you have KNOLL response?

[–] Addition1291@lemmy.world 22 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Idk man, I have it on good authority that JFK's head just did that all on its own.

Yeah, but they had multiple people, magic bullets, and CIA backing.

Actually I'm pretty sure this is what happened.

Two bullets hit JFK. Definitely different bullets. First one went through his neck and into the guy in front of him.

Second bullet demolished his skull.

What I think happened, or the theory I heard that makes sense. Was a 50 cal mounted to the car in front of him. In the chaos it lurched and the person had poor finger discipline and blasted JFK almost point blank

Yeah this is the most believable conspiracy theory if it wasnt simply one bullet

But JFK was struck twice?
