It’s really odd to me that after all these years we don’t have any solid proof. It seems so bizarre and unlikely that he did it by himself but also equally bizarre and unlikely that it happened and there is no proof
The way I see it, if it was a conspiracy it was done in just about the dumbest way possible.
Moving target and you don't make sure there was someone to concretely place Oswald on the floor at the time of the shooting?
If it's the CIA/FBI/any of the 3 letter agencies, there were so many better opportunities when JFK was standing still on a stage
Please keep in mind:
The CIA and FBI are not, and have never been, good at their jobs. They do dumb and reckless shit constantly, both in the past and today.
Trust me I'm well aware that a large portion of their power comes from the doublethink of "they're incompetent fools" and "their power is limitless and they're all knowing".
Doesn't change the fact that even a bumbling idiot knows its easier to shoot a guy that's standing still than one moving in a car
For examples please see Fidel Castro
It was mafia.
I met a guy who was there, Sam Pate. He was a radio reporter covering the event. He said the storm drains were larger then and the killer went down, took the tunnels, and was on a plane from Love to Chicago by the time Kennedy was pronounced dead at parkland.
Over thirty people making videos it taking pictures in the plaza, every story and statement poured over time and time again in intricate detail... And we're still no where near a consensus opinion on what happened.
