Well we all know he was assasinated. I mean come on a bullet in the back of the neck and one in the side of the head. Duh. So here's the theory. Kenidy wanted to pull out of veitnam and some gov. officaials didn't like that. They made money off the arms production in the stock so to pevent him from pulling out they offed him. Proof? Well a lack of security near his car. So what do ya think. Possible or crack pot theory.


Edited: title to make clearer.

Didn't he insist on the open car after his security suggested a closed car?

Ya know I don't know. Maybe they tried some reverse psychology on him. Or knew that he wanted the public to see him. Beats me this was a sperr of the moment kinda idea. If you guys have theories or amendments to mine post em. This theory could use some developing.

Just something I remember hearing hence the question. Do you have any proof he didn't?


Edit: Not trying to be confrontational. I know it might seem that way. I really am curious. I really do seem to remember that Kennedy liked to ride in an open car to be closer to the public.

I think in your first sentence, you're trying to say that we all know he was assassinated via conspiracy. And of course, a lot of people don't believe that. I believe Oswald acted alone, and no one put him up to it.

It was well known at the time that JFK wanted to end US involvement in Nam.
To a lesser degree, JFK was a bit isolationist and felt we should not be involved in the politics of other countries, particularly the "Banana Republics", as they were referred to then. This was more controversial than is recorded in the books, and JFK made a lot of enemies among the big importers at the time (possible involvement due to infringing on company profits).
Since the FBI (the illustrious J. Edgar Hoover) was working with the Mafia (under a black cloak), and Robert was actively attacking organized crime, there is conjecture that the hit was performed by Mafia hit men. Supported in part by the fact that Oswald was killed by Jack Ruby, who was associated with the mob. Some say there was backup support by other agencies, such that regardless of the accuracy of the involved hit man or men, JFK had no chance of leaving Dallas alive.
I was in university at the time, and viewed the newscasts and the subsequent events. Having come from a family that depended, to a degree, on hunting and fishing for edibles, and also a member of a rifle club for many years, the film I saw indicated that at least one projectile originated from the front, was a high-velocity projectile, and exited the back of JFK's head. A perusal of the film shows spatter coming from the back of the head behind the right ear. A high velocity round, contrary to what many claim (so-called experts) will NOT spatter towards the entry point except in a small droplet pattern, but as the bullet proceeds through the target, will carry materials with it as well as pushing the materials out of its way. Normal Mailer included this in one of his novels.
As was also mentioned, there was the war. Remember, however, that at the time of the assassination, there were only Special Forces troops in Nam, and those troops were mostly acting as aids, engineers, and trainers. Weapons such as the M-16 were not being considered by the military, and when the M-16 was being considered, there was a very large opposition to the use of a small caliber, light bullet, high velocity weapon. In JFK's time, the weapon of choice was the M-14, which was an exemplary weapon, and when I was there, many of us would have preferred it over the M-16 (anyone heard of Hamburger Hill?). So I suspect that the Vietnam issue was quite secondary to the assassination.
By the way, doesn't it seem a little strange that Kennedy, while he was in opposition to Communism, was in favor of a more isolationist foreign policy and the claim is that a self-admitted Communist (Oswald) killed him? The isolationist policy would certainly have allowed a freer hand by the USSR.
