re: Anyone believe Jim Garrison’s JFK assassination conspiracy?

After reading Doctor Mary’s Monkey by Edward Haslam, I do believe that there were some connections in New Orleans to the assasination. But after all this time, somebody somewhere would have come forward with information that would have made it more conspiratorial than what what it appears to have been.

Yeah, you might be able to argue that Oswald was a disgruntled crazy that was looking for attention, (However some things in his file argue against it) but Ruby makes no sense based on people who knew him. Some say he was just an idiot loser. Others say he had small time mob ties. Still other say he was a wise cracking loud mouth who would have never put his neck out to do anything like kill the president for "patriotic" reasons. And yet there he is walking into the basement of the police station just in time to kill Oswald because he loved JFK.

JFK was assassinated by Oswald, who was a kooky guy that fit the mold of conspiracy theorists' scapegoat model.
People, by nature, don't want to believe such a powerful figure such as the president of the United States can be taken out by such a small, insignificant imbecile.
Oswald had been in trouble in years prior to the shooting for threatening the president. He had mental issues and kept falling through the cracks of law enforcement until the shooting.
The timing of the shooting and Ruby killing him right afterwards were simply convenient for conspiracy theorists.
Imagine for a moment that a terrorist slipped into this country and makes an attempt at the president's life right now - in the midst of the wall argument. That would be incredibly convenient for democrat conspiracy theorists - once more information comes out about the suspect - to say that Trump and the GOP orchestrated it because it fits perfectly into that mold. It seems very plausible.
The same thing happened with Oswald. He acted alone but once his background and other events surrounding the assassination were made public, it sure seemed quite plausible that the CIA, or the mafia, or Cuba, or Russia, or Johnson could have been behind it.
Newsflash: it's very possible for insignificant people to create MAJOR problems. It just takes an instant.
I was at the mob museum yesterday, some PhD in crime said you are a moron if you don't think Oswald wasn't connected to both the mafia and some intelligence service.
He knew David Ferry well, and that wasn't pinned until later. Ruby also knew Oswald and was tracking him on previous occasions before he shot him...he was caught on video.
Because of this, there are THOUSANDS of FBI inquiries that were documented into both Marcello and the Tampa mob. Many of those documents were declassed over the past year, there is a whole library on it online.
What is not declassified is the missing link that proc'd all the investigations.
It is so prevalent the House Committee on Assassinations deemed it a conspiracy.
Sure, JFK the movie has a bunch of fiction in it, but to be dismissive of the event may be succumbing to an illusion of truth bias.

I love that film. Not sure Garrison's version is perfect, but there is no chance Oswald carried out the assassination alone.

No, but I'll forever be grossed out by the image of Joe Pesci doing poppers and violently fricking gold-painted Tommy Lee Jones up the arse.
Although, the real David Ferrie would be 10 times more horrifying. Can you imagine this guy fricking someone up the arse?

He was definitely an odd looking guy. His attempts to camouflage the effects of his alopecia were worse than the alopecia itself.

Taking us off Federal Reserve notes and printing United States dollars was the end for Kennedy.

Based solely on audio analysis of recordings that was later determined to be flawed nullifying their conclusion.

It would be unfathomable today for a president to ride in a motorcade through multiple city blocks completely exposed like JFK was.
I do think it’s pretty clear now, though, that LHO was the lone gunman. Wether or not there were other people involved is another story, but I’m not convinced of that either.

If you look for it you can see a photo of LBJ ducking in the car seat a car or two back just BEFORE the shots were fired.

No.
He made all that crap up, and destroyed some lives in the process

Really...this is the bullet that did this?
Ahh, yes it is. It was deformed in the body (of the bullet). Consistent with that rifle and round. It has been duplicated numerous times with the same bullet. People don't seem to understand ballistics etc...

The Secret Service took Kennedy's body from Dallas. The Dallas cops did not want the body moved. It was evidence in a crime committed in Texas. Guns were drawn, and the Dallas cops let the sEcret Service take the body.
The windshield for Kennedy's car was replaced. Why?
Witnesses claimed to see a bullet hole in the front windshield. Keeping the glass would allow forensics experts to determine if the bullet entered from the front or rear of the car. A front entrance would reveal a second shooter.
The Kennedy murder cover up is just like the HRC server cover-up. Take evidence, hide evidence, and destroy evidence while blaming one scape goat.
Who was umbrella man, and why did he have an umbrella. Why was he raising it so high at the exact point Kennedy was shot? Was he marking the spot? He was also wearing a tench coat.

I met Jim’s son at a bar once in Nola and all he talked about was his dad and the JFK conspiracy. Very strange.

Don't know what his theory is, but I don't believe it. The significance of New Orleans was that Oswald was from there. This was a random crazy with a rifle that was military trained. That's all she wrote.
