(12,792 posts)The legal definition of a conspiracy goes something like this:
An agreement between two or more persons to engage jointly in an unlawful or criminal act, or an act that is innocent in itself but becomes unlawful when done by the combination of actors.
There's nothing about a conspiracy theory or conspiracy theorist that depends on "no objective proof". You are trying to color the term with your own bias and prejudice. In your world, anyone who puts forward a conspiracy theory is automatically unable to prove anything. You are trying to back us into a corner where we can only logically analyze the actions of lone wolves.
Whether Oswald is guilty of anything is really beside the point when it comes to a question of conspiracy. Even if he was the lone gunman, he could still be part of a conspiracy.
