In reply to the discussion: Justice for JFK [View all]billh58
(6,635 posts)to put words in my mouth. I did not call for, or even suggest, that this thread be closed or moved. What I actually said (with just a touch of sarcasm) is that the many speculative (and in some cases creative) JFK Assassination Conspiracy Theories might be better suited to the Creative Speculation page. I do not "denigrate" speculation, but I also do not accept it as proven fact.
I don't give a rat's patootie where conspiracy theories are posted, or any other topic for that matter. I'm certainly not going to run to the Meta page and cry about a supposed mis-posting. I will leave that to the more pedantic hall monitors among us.
As for your comments about "honor among conspirators," I will only say that if a group conspires to murder the President of the United States, and carries it out, their "honor" would at least be subject to question. No? Would you trust them to keep secrets? And you may very well be correct in that several people conspired to assassinate JFK, and that several more have continued to cover it up all these years, but this is not my point.
My point is that no one has been able to present any tangible evidence, or provide one iota of concrete proof to present to any law enforcement agency or Congress that a conspiracy exists, or that Oswald was not the lone shooter on that day.The Warren Commission came to the same conclusion about the possibility of a conspiracy, but could find no proof. All that exists is the speculation and conjecture (mainly Internet driven) that appears at this time of the year like clockwork.
So no, I don't want this, or any other thread, shut down, moved, or locked. I welcome differences of opinion, and DU would be a very dull place without them.
Peace...
