Do you think Oswald was the "lone assassin" of John Kennedy?

[c=800000]Do you think he was involved in the assassination at all?
Was he a "patsy," as he claimed? [/c][/c]

The most convincing explanation I've heard is that while Oswald was firing the secret service in the car behind Kennedy stood up and were knocked back as the cars accelerated. One of their guns went off and killed Kennedy.

There's a ton of corroborating evidence, it fits all of the theories, and explains the intense cover-up without it being some sort of ludicrous conspiracy. Just basic incompetence which is normally behind a lot of huge stuf like this.

@CountScrofula You’re conveniently leaving out the part where the secret service agents were given the alcohol by space aliens.

@CountScrofula [c=800000]I have heard something along those lines.

@ProfessorPlum77 Yeah a ballistics expert dedicated years to it and it's just kind of accepted as a plausible theory but never caught on in the popular imagination for whatever reason

@CountScrofula [c=800000]It could explain why there was a massive coverup. However, I heard there were four or five shots fired. Did one agent fire that many shots? [/c]

@ProfessorPlum77 No Oswald was actively trying to shoot him and I think if I remember the theory he hit Kennedy once and shot the guy beside him, but the killing blow came from behind.
