(14,180 posts)me something to consider.
As for the 'crimes of opportunities', I am so struck by the amazing chains of coincidences (if you're not a CT-er, that is) that transpired. In the official account of the WCR, Oswald had only begun working at the TSBD about 45 days before the assassination. That just blows my mind, that Oswald just happened to start working at the place barely a month before.
As you note, the chain of coincidences with Ruby are likewise simply amazing (provided again that you're not a CT-er).
Speaking as an (untrained) layperson in psychology, I wonder whether it is these tragic chains of coincidence that help lead so many into conspiracy theorizing. (Someone in this thread actually posted that there is no such thing as coincidence.) To wit, if only one coincidence in the chains is altered by even the tiniest factor, JFK is not assassinated and\or Oswald is not executed before his trial. It really make me want to weep every time I think of it.
