88. Yep. Oswald DID do it alone. Those are the facts.

Even a dipshit gets it right once in a while.

Life is like that. You know, the Challenger exploded because it literally blew a gasket. That's what an "O-ring" is after all, a gasket. Sometimes monumental shit happens that has insignificant shit as its cause..

But let's put on our CT hat and talk conspiracies about the Challenger explosion: it happened when Reagan was president. Reagan was against funding public education. There was a school teacher on the flight. What better way to discourage school teachers from wanting to go into space and to hang a pall of disaster over the words "school teacher" than to blow up a school teacher on live TV. Brilliant!

Yep, it was all a huge CT. Or, you can be naive and think the space shuttle just blew a gasket.
