In light of the newly released documents, we wanted to go back and look into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy to see what the evidence was, how the narrative was shaped by the government immediately following, and all of the information we’ve learned from government agencies since that day in Dallas in 1963.

We have had to censor depictions of the assassination in order to make this video widely available on YouTube. The uncensored cut is published on Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/johnnyharris-why-people-think-the…

  • The funny thing is that the Soviets were also surprised and had to check if their agents did it.
  • @hvyduty1220
    Too many weird things went down. Carlos Hatchcock our top military sniper wrote 7 papers on this happening. He stated that if I can't reproduce this shooting, L.H Oswald didn't do it.
  • I was a 13 year old kid when Kennedy was assassinated, I didn't believe Oswald acted alone but was part of a conspiracy. First off being a kid that hunted I knew a bullet followed a straight line it dose not curve , which is what it would have to do to go through 2 men one directly in front of the other on the same side of a moving car when the shooter was above to the side and behind the victim. I remember saying that to my father he smiled and said you young lady are very observant. Them he sa8d his fell the wrong way for a sh I t from behind , he was shot from the front Then when Jack Ruby shot Oswald it seemed evedent he did that to keep Oswald quite. Dad said so who had something on Ruby or convinced him that he wouldn't have to spend his life in prison? All of this before the FBI said anything . I don't know anyone from that time that believed the story we were told. Remember we were all witnesses, because it was televised in living color.

    It's really sad that 2 men who wanted peace got assassinated. Rip JFK and MLK
  • @clintburns7470
    Not think. Know. One bullet from the back forces his body forward in the car. Driver turns. His body then abruptly flings back while his head particles spread out across the back of the vehicle. The exit wound tells all.
  • If you examine the Lee Harvey Oswald aspect of this story I think you will conclude that he didn't shoot anyone. From the ungainly weapon he supposedly used, to the impossibly fast aim and fire with amazing accuracy. (He was not a marksman) Why would he wait until the motorcade was in an awkward position for his aim? Just moments earlier, the motorcade was driving directly toward the depository which would have been a much easier shot. Why was Oswald found sitting in the breakroom drinking a coke 90 seconds after shots were fired? How did the police magically know, immediately, the physical description of the shooter (who was drinking a coke in the breakroom) They broadcasted that description immediately. Modern day voice analysis has not detected any deception when he said, "I didn't shoot anybody, I'm just a patsy."

    Living under the american government is like playing a board game with a 10 year old who makes up new rules to favor themselves
  • @chrissutton1730
    The more I learn about Hoover the more I feel like he was one of the worst people to ever work in the US government.
  • I have seen the footage from all of the angles, and the most compelling is the moment before the fatal shot when the presidents head went towards the truck and seeing the driver of his car slightly turned to his right and his left hand under his own right armpit as a puff of smoke appeared and JFK’s head snapped backwards and the First Lady lunging towards the truck to get away from the direction of the last shot is the filmed documentation that says it all.
  • Because its still a mystery. When major murders cant be solved, its because the murderers are important people or linked to them.
  • Investigating yourself (government) and finding yourself innocent of any wrongdoing or treason is of the highest dodginess

  • @lennon1252
    Secret Service Agent Paul Landis, still alive at 88, recently said that he found a pristine bullet in the limo after Jackie had left. He found it in the back seat where the bubble top would have been attached. He put it in his pocket and then placed it on Kennedy's stretcher by his feet. If this is true, it makes a lot of sense because the back wound never had a path of exit and the bullet that caused that wound was never found by Dr. Humes. And if his story is true, there was more than one assassin.
  • @Paumanokcom
    Dallas PD was so convinced they had their shooter they let him talk to the press twice.
  • @Josh-oz9dd
    The fact that they want the public to know “ HE ACTED ALONE “ makes me think he didn’t act alone
  • @cmauro7912
    In 77 a substitute teacher took an entire class hour to explain the way Oswald was used as a scapegoat and how mafia and CIA were involved. I was in grade 7. Most interesting class ever. We understood it was a possibility. We were not led astray as it being an absolute truth.
  • @RadioUgly
    The Rifle they found on the scene doesn't match the one in the museum. Check where the strap attaches to the butt of the gun. It doesn't match.
  • @SwedishColtsFan
