42. Doesn't defy logic
Logic works like this. Progressives don't like guns. They don't like violence. So they are less likely to murder an opponent. Establishment folk are more likely to resort to violence, especially against people who threaten them. JFK, RFK, MLK, Malcolm X, Lincoln, etc, threatened them.

And there have been attempts on conservatives. Reagan, as you mention (though you try to explain that away as a conservative plot). Wallace. Ford (twice in one weak). McKinnley, if you want to go back. To make an accurate picture of whether there has been an anomoly you have to take all examples.

I'm not trying to prove anything about the assassinations here, only to say that it is far from proven for many people that the assasinations you list are the result of government plots. If you believe it, so be it. But to include a questionable detail on a list like this makes the whole list seem a matter of opinion. In my opinion.
