I was in 5th grade john f. peeler school in Oak Cliff texas when he was killed.....Many of my class mates rejoiced at his murder....They are all deceased now, and i approach my 71th birthday.....That day lives on forever in my memory......
I was in third grade at Saint Domitilla Catholic school in the Chicago area and when the teacher made the announcement that the president had been shot everyone started crying… Then we prayed
John. Hinckly,Jr was in a second grade class in Dallas that day. And when it was announced the president had died the class erupted in laughter,including the teacher!@
In a normal motorcade the press car would be directly in front of presidents limo. The press was several cars back and no motorcycle front escort. Should be 2 and 2 close to each front fender. Dealey Plaza was an ambush site . To see his security stand down at this site was a red flag that something was wrong.
That is true,in other motorcades the press would be on a flat bed truck in front of the presidential limo to take pictures while in Dallas the 3 press cars and 3 press busses were in the middle to rear parts of the procession. However,when people say the security precautions were non existent here in Dallas,wouldn't removing,a big flat bed truck from in front of the limo be considered a good thing? Think about it,the flat bed truck would've boxed the limo in and Greer would've had to maneuver the limo around that truck in order to speed up out of Dealey Plaza. It was critical for the limo to speed up onto Stemmons and continue to Parkland Hospital. Taking away the flat bed truck away from in front of the limo was a security precaution.
@@quentincampbell612 yes having a flatbed truck in front could box in the limo, but this was a pre planned ambush site. Having the press filming from the front would've exposed the directions of the shoots, without the press filming the actual shooting in dealey plaza, we were left with 1 film that was suppressed for 12 years. It was important that the press bus , car, truck was far enough behind the ambush site , and the secret service was minimal.
@@larrywheels762 What a bunch of utter nonsense. The direction of the "shoots" doesn't come from films, but can easily be determined by tracing the wounds back to their source; the way police crime investigators do every day. What the wounds show is that no shots came from the grassy knoll, manhole covers, umbrellas, secret service drivers, or any of the other drivel we've all been subjected to over the last 60 years. Please explain to me why conspirators hoping to frame Oswald would use multiple gunmen in different locations, thereby proving to everyone that a conspiracy was involved? The very idea makes absolutely no sense.
@@dolnick7 That’s not true whatsoever. The doctors at Parkland and in supporting roles in Bethesda as well as the photographer of the autopsy and the man who gave the country the update on the injury JFK sustained while at Parkland all said wounds were to the side frontal area which is why the entire back of his head was gone. Most witnesses also heard the shots from the hill although it does seem one or two came from the TSBD.
My father who is currently 68 years old was 8 at the time. He lived in a small Brazilian town called Capinzal, he did not have access to electricity, cinema, radio... Even newspapers and magazines were hard to get in the rural community he used to live in. He recalls one day, his father getting home and telling his mother that "the president of the United States was killed". My father, as it was expected for a child in those circumstances, had never heard of the US before. However, this really shocked him because "a man was murdered". Remember, he was a child with no access to news reports, films or TV series; living in a rural community in a third world country. It was probably the first murder he ever heard of.
History tells us that assassination plans are usually very opportunistic in that their success is generally based primarily on happenstance. Obviously, we never hear of those that were somehow thwarted before they even took place.
Thats a common site all over the south , doesn't mean the same thing to everyone except activist college students today who are afraid of statues , symbols and history books

Does anyone know how the gunman knew in advance that jfk would be in an open topped unprotected vehicle?
Only insiders would know that.
No but I expect 6 different replies with 6 different conspiracy theories as to why.
The route was in the paper. I assume pictures of the motorcade from other cities would show at least the possibility of there being no bubble top

Yes - Kennedy did it all the time. I have an editorial from 1962 criticizing him for being so cavalier about his safety.
Why didn’t people like Kennedy and why did he like him?
