Reply #40: The point was not about the individual assassination

[Gringo]

The fact is that progressive leaders have been murdered, or died under mysterious circumstances in far greater numbers than pro-establishment leaders in the last 50 years.

It may very well be that one or more of these was done by a "lone nut" - the most popular government cover story, but it defies all logic to suggest that they were all lone nuts. If that were the case you would see right-wingers getting killed all the time. The only one I ever remember being shot was Reagan, and he was shot by a good friend of the Bush family, John Hinckley, and though Reagan didn't die, he became much more of a doddering figurehead in a very much Bush-controlled White House. One or more of them may have been lone nuts, but I think it's far more likely that many or most these acts were carried out with the sanction or people high in our government.

So my point is about a pattern of murdered progressives (and almost no centrists/rightwingers) that points to conspiracy at some level of the government, not the JFK or RFK incident on its own.
