Your claim that nobody has killed a president since does not prove that Oswald did not kill one 55 years agoSorry....Your logic makes no senseDonāt follow your logicok?
Anyway, getting back to your reasoningā¦
If Oswald was a nut job and the President was a target of opportunityā¦.
It would stand to reason that the greater population we have now would have more nut jobs.
It would stand to reason that the greater # of firearms we have now would mean more armed nut jobs.
It would stand to reason that there would be more attempts on the lives of the President and his family.
Weāve had one since Reagan unless you want to count fence jumpers at the White House who have zero hope of success.
History reports your reasoning faulty.
Are you claiming people canāt kill someone without CIA help?
No. the argument that Oswald was a low self esteem nut job who just treated Kennedy as a target of opportunity doesnāt hold water in light of the 50+ years since and weāve had only a few instances of low self esteem nuts taking shots at our presidents. We have more nutjobs with more access to guns and fewer attempts. The SS is good but they are vastly outnumbered.
Sorry yours doesnāt.
Uh no.
My claim is that weāve only had one (if you count Soupās example) instance of someone being able to squeeze shots off at the President since Reagan.
To go back, my stance is that Oswald fired the shots but I think he wasnāt the lone conspirator. I donāt think he just woke up one day and decided to kill the President.
You do. You think he was the only one involved. And the Warren Commission supports your assessment.
It does not support mine.
However
Your reasoning is that he was a nut job and had a gun and one day he just decided to kill the President because he was in town. I pointed out the we have far more nut jobs now and we have far more guns. But despite both of those self-evident truthsā¦we havenāt had someone squeeze off shots at a President since 1982 or whenever it was that Hinkley went after Ronnie.
So, just to address this one aspect of the theory; I donāt think your argument of just a nut with a gun being āenoughā (for lack of a better term) to motivate Oswald to do this.
Again, this is just conjecture. The stances up there in blue are the real nuts and bolts. Weāve probably beaten this one particular horse as much as we should.
