Hehehe, the page has a link to Amazon's order page. The reviews are HILARIOUS!
It did not explain the single bullet theory (because scientifically it can't be explained)

Does this film debunk Nelson Delgado, who either trained with or served with LHO, who says Lee was a poor shot?

This is the guy that did Guerilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst which is a great doc. Very effective and haunting use of the original Patty Hearst tapes. I think I'm going to have to watch this one.

I think the fact that Oswald's own brother was never in doubt that he did it is quite telling.

He was obviously in on it.
And when I mean obviously, I mean not at all.

I don't know if it has to, because Oswald's Marine Corps records already did the job.
On December 21, 1956, Oswald scored a 212 out a possible 250 during a shooting test, ranking him as a sharpshooter in the Marine rifle ratings.

Our history department proudly displays posters that inform us of 'the controversies and conspiracies that surround the assassination'.

Not only that, but he had practice rounds in records of 49 out of 50 and even one of 50 out of 50.

Welcome to the forum.

England, enthusiastic teachers and they didn't even bother to name or detail theories. It's one of those, "Many people believe that Kennedy was shot by Oswald, HOWEVER..."
British conspiracy theorists rarely take a clear stance. The general consensus is that Oswald 'might' not have acted alone, the Turin Shroud 'could possibly' be genuine and the Illuminati 'may very well be' tightening their febrile stranglehold on the world.
Thanks for the welcome,

The BBC did a good debunking documentary on the JFK assassination in 2003 which is available online.

I'm sure I remember that one but can't seem to find it online :confused:
There is this one (http://www.theonion.com/content/news/new_theories_suggest_kennedy_wasnt) though.

It was one of their graphic images that looked like a real newspaper. The quoted bit was the headline, and there was an accompanying article. However, it didn't appear as text on their web site, but a big graphics image, so the text wouldn't be searchable.

A lot of skeptics claim that the official story of JFK assassination fell apart after Jack Ruby shot Oswald dead in order to silence him before the trial otherwise what could be Ruby's motivation for the hit?

The only explanation for Ruby's action is that he was an unstable hothead. It was plainly NOT a premeditated shooting. (Go ahead - ask why)

I'll bite - why was it plainly not a premeditated shooting?

Uh, because he did it in front of the cops and reporters?

No, because at the time when Oswald was scheduled to be transported out of the police station, Ruby was down the street at the Western Union station, sending money to an employee. He was there at the police station when Oswald came out, only because they were running a little late with him.
In addition, Ruby left his close companion, his little dog, in his car at the time of the shooting. All this paints a clear picture that Ruby had business in the area, then headed to the police station only to find himself armed and face-to-face with the kid he despised. He pulled out the gun and shot.

I don't think I'm getting the connection (it's pretty early here still). Why would that change whether it was premeditated? Maybe I'm misunderstanding "premeditated". I'm pretty ignorant on this, so I checked wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premeditated_murder). It says
Premeditated murder is the crime of wrongfully causing the death of another human being (also known as murder) after rationally considering the timing or method of doing so, in order to either increase the likelihood of success, or to evade detection or apprehension.
If Ruby had determined that the best chance of killing Oswald would be when he was transferred from one location to another, wouldn't that qualify as premeditation?
On Edit: I hadn't seen CurC's reply when I posted this. Please ignore it as he has sufficiently explained why it was not premeditated murder.

Ahh, gotcha. That makes sense - thanks for the explanation.

Well, there was more than one bullet in the gun, wasn't there?
