Agent Hickey with a AR-15 from the secret service car following the presidential limo. No accident tho.
Case close

Why are Farrakhan's sermons so politicized?

He sounds like a leader of the alt-right or an even more radical hate group.


Here's how that sermon ended on Lebron James and jews.

Just say the jews lmao.

I posted in one of these threads several times over the years and the last one got me to talk to my dad about this again. The "new to me" information will follow. His story hasn't changed once over the years and I relay it as faithfully as possible.

Pops worked as an electronics technician for the FAA at Lakefront Airport in 1963 when Kennedy was killed. Later in his career, he transferred to Moisant. Lakefront Airport was a very small place in 1963 with many "regulars".

I wouldn't say he knew David Ferrie any more than he knew most of the other people that he would BS with at the coffee shop during breaks. He described Ferrie as odd but smart. His clothes were often disheveled and didn't match and he wore ridiculous costume eyebrows. Aside from his appearance, my dad was always impressed with his ability to carry on an intelligent conversation about anything, no matter the topic.

The New Orleans Civil Air Patrol met regularly at Lakefront Airport. Ferrie captained a squadron of which Oswald was a member. Pops saw them together at the airport during those meetings as did everyone else that worked there. Their association during this time period was no secret at all.

Mom and Dad went shopping the morning Kennedy was shot and were saddened by the news like most people. Dad was on the mid shift that day and arrived at work in the early afternoon.

Kennedy was shot at 12:30 and pronounced dead at 1:00 CST. Oswald was apprehended at 1:50, suspected of shooting a cop and wasn't charged with murdering the president until 11:30 that night.

When my dad got to work, his boss and several other airport administrators were being questioned by men who presented credentials of the Federal Bureau of Investigation who were looking for David Ferrie by name. Satisfied that nobody had seen him that day and that he wasn't holed up on the premises, the men left. This is during the time frame after the killing but before Oswald is charged with anything, in fact he had just been taken into custody.


**a few details that I got out of my dad since the last thread**

> When he asked his boss what the hell was going on, he was told that he was questioned about David Ferrie's whereabouts. He was told that they believed Ferrie to be piloting a flight to Lakefront from Dallas that afternoon.

> It was commonly known around the Airport that Ferrie was the pilot of choice for Carlos Marcello.

I've never believed Oswald was capable of making that shot with that weapon. If he did it was easily the luckiest shot ever.

FTR. This is the sanctioned Official annual JFK thread.

Well then i'll post this here too.

Watched a show on history channel last night and they were recreating the shooting.

They did 2 test shoots from the grassy knoll. One using a high caliber cartridge that they said, "if you wanted to assure kennedy didn't survive, you'd use this". Well, that round completely obliviated the skull. The second test was using the same cartridge Oswald used. From the grassy knoll, if that same cartridge was used, due to the angle and the proximity, the bullet would have went through kennedy's skull completely and killed Jackie as well.

The next test was taking a shot from the same distance, height, elevation, wind pattern, etc... with the same cartridge as Oswald from the book depository. The entry wound, skull matter spray, etc... were nearly identical to the actual Kennedy assassination.

Oliver Stone made a very compelling movie. Unfortunately, historical accuracy and facts were not considered in his movie.

FWIW, it is still one of my favorite movies. Love the suspense.
