I'm a new member to this forum, and I'd like to take advantage of the wealth of knowledge possessed by some members here to further round out my knowledge. These are some myths I believe that are widely held about the Kennedy assasination. 1) John Conally was in on the assassination. Even if you believe LBJ was behind the assassination.I have a hard time accepting that John Conally was so devoted to LBJ's career ambitions that he would put himself directly in the line of fire from an assassin's bullet. It seems rather absurd to me. 2) The Murchison meeting. What a smoking gun that would be! The only eyewitness I have heard attesting to that meeting was Helen Duncan Brown, who I do believe was a mistress to LBJ as I have seen an interview with her son who is the spittin' image of LBJ, and the fact that no one has disputed that she was a mistress to LBJ. Still she has a motive to write her book, as she became destitute after LBJ's death as his estate pulled her pursestrings after she had become accustomed to a lavish lifestyle as LBJ's mistress. It seems the only partial corroboration of that meeting was from the Murchison seamstress (Meg Patton) who can only attest to hearing second hand that Hoover was arriving from the airport. Brown said that journalist Helen Thomas was also there and swore so in an affadavit. If that's the case, why wouldn't she come forward at this late stage of her life? It also seemed that Brown changed her story, and only later included Jack Ruby as being in attendance that night, if I'm not mistaken. 3)Badge Man and Black Dog man: I've heard many claims to the "obvious image of a man firing a rifle" but I've never really been able to identify these figures from these computer enhanced photos. These very same photos given in evidence contain other lighting and shadow anamolies that are not even addressed. I think some are easily given over to an illusion of legitimacy if it is couched in an authenticity of being derived through the modern "state of the art" scientific techniques. I have a question to any who would answer. Oswalds palmprint was finally tied to his gun after his death and the subsequent printing of Oswalds body by FBI agents at the funeral home. How long do palmprints or cheek prints last? Is it at all unusual LHO would have his own fingerprints on his own gun? Is there something I'm missing? 2) did they ever check the single bullet on the stretcher for either Kennedy or Conally's blood? This is such a glaring omission about the most famous and otherwise talked bullet in history. I appreciate all your responses. Thanks
