Conspiracy Theories are quite a phenomena.  In the absence of concrete evidence people with intelligence well above the norm fall prey to it.   Some people have suggested that the average person cannot accept a simple answer to a tragic event; that there must be more to it than just 19 arab hijackers or a lone gunman.

Anytime anyone wants to open the JFK door I'm more than ready.  I've changed my belief just recently on it.

Now there is actually something I happen to believe was a planned murder, a "conspiracy". Doesn't mean I believe that everything is a Hollywood-type conspiracy though.

Well, if you ever get the chance, examine the evidence.  Just the evidence.  The seating positions, the gun, Oswald, the 3 shots, what happened after the murder etc...  Once you have the all the evidence in mind look at the arguments the CT'ers give and you'll see why it was in all likely hood it was a lone gunman.

Or just get "Rewriting History" by V. Begliosi.  It's pretty straight forward.

Or you could look at the hardball JFK was playing with the Chiefs and Dulles, Bissell his new found experiments with LSD and seeing the future...or you could base it on "Rewriting History" by V. Begliosi, but even now that more technological advances come to us it's becoming easier to see that the whole operation was planned but not perfect

Bugliosi also wrote a scathing indictment of the Bush v Gore 2000 decision--None Dare Call It Treason-- where he concluded that the Sup. Court's decision was counter to the rule of law, the constitution and a criminal act.

As for "conspiracy", in legal terminology, it's where 2 or more people agree to commit a crime and generally take some sort of step towards the commission of that crime.

Big deal.  Criminal conspiracies happen every day of the week.

no they don't, there are so many people on this board that disagree with this, why it's common accepted belief that no such thing occurs unless it's by ordinary criminals...  Conspiracy to commit does not apply to anyone who makes over 50,000 a year and holds a government position.  That's just a fact :)
