Why do some people believe in conspiracy theories?

[Walt Cakebread]

Well, given that it just magically showed up in DeMohrenschildt's storage warehouse while they were in Haiti, a better question might be why do you think Oswald had anything to do with it?

I believe that De M was lying about that photo....I believe that Lee autographed it ..."To my Friend George from Lee Oswald 4/ 5 /63"  ( actually the date was written as the goofy Europeans write the date) and gave it to Dem before the hoax attempt on Walker....  DeM couldn't reveal how he came to have that photo because if the DPD ( Henry Wade)  decided to press an attempted murder charge he would have been forced to reveal that he, and Walker, and Lee had planned the hoax and they were merely trying to get Lee Into Cuba.

Jack....Referring to CE 133A and the De M print....If the DPD created CE 133A ...Then how did Demorhenschildt get a copy of it with Lee's autograph on it?

I believe that the Geneva White print 133c   is a fake....created by the DPD.   Captain Fritz displayed that photo to Lee Oswald at lunch time Saturday 11/23/63 BEFORE any other BY photo was found in the Paine garage.....  Lee told Fritz that the photo was a fake.....

Since DeMohrenschildt was LHO's handler he was the go-between for Lee and the DPD and SS. Look into their connections and I'll bet you find some interesting stuff.  Also, before it's too late, someone has to question Marina whether the DPD or SS ever came to their house "taking pictures" because she was obviously lying about how many pictures she took. She needs to set the record straight.

4/ 5 /63"  ( actually the date was written as the goofy Europeans write the date) 

Walt, just a question. Why would an American write a date as those "goofy Europeans" write it?

Actually, American military write dates as  22 Nov 1963 ... 7 Dec 1941 etc.

The "goofy Europeans " was a friendly jab at my friend Paul Ernst....Not intended to offend....BTW... Where is Paul? 

Martin, My apologies....  I did not intend to offend, in the "goofy Europeans" comment....       

Why would an American write a date as Europeans write it?

Answer:.... At the time that Lee autographed the photo, ( Friday April 5, 1963)  I believe that Lee Oswald and George De M were planning for Lee to fire the bullet through Walker's window that weekend (Saturday  4/6 - Sunday 4/7 1963) and Lee wanted George to have a copy of the photo that he had autographed for his daughter ....Thus he asked George how he wanted the photo autographed and DE M dictated how he wanted Lee to sign the photo...   So naturally DeM would have used the European method.....And that's the way Lee wrote it.

So, does Bill still believe in the Russia/Trump conspiracy?

Why did Bill believe in a conspiracy theory?

[Richard Smith]

I think lots of the "so-called" evidence is valid.  It just doesn't prove that Oswald shot Kennedy.

Exactly right, but that's something the LNs will never be able to wrap their heads around or even discuss openly, for that matter.

Far easier for them to just paint everybody who doesn't agree with them with the same brush and qualify them as irrational, unreasonable, conspiracy mongers even when they don't even have a conspiracy theory to put forward and just want to examine the validity of the case against Oswald.

Great.  So now you tell us whether the documentation linking Oswald to the rifle is fake or genuine instead of running away and trying to have it both ways.  So which is it?
