Do you think LHO acted alone? Grassy Knowl? Mafia, Cuba, LBJ, HW Bush?
So who killed JFK and where were you at the time?

Don't necessarily appreciate the accusatory tone of this post. None of your business where I was at the time, see. I didn't do nothin'.

I was home sick from school, watching cartoons. When the breaking news interrupted and gave the news I yelled " the president has been shot" to my mom who was in the kitchen with the neighbor lady. My mom said " that's not funny, don't say that". I told them to come listen, they both started sobbing. I remember it like it was yesterday.

I was a sophomore in high school. We were at an assembly. I recall most of the nuns & girls crying. I took the original report at face value at that time, but after I was older that changed. I don't believe the "single-shooter" theory, nor do I believe that LHO made that shot.

Same experience, I was in grade school, all students gathered to give the sad announcement and the girls were crying. Sad day.

I was in eighth grade and it was about 10:00 and the Principal brought a television into the classroom and announced the president had been shot. I attended a Catholic School and since Kennedy was of the same denomination it seemed like a bigger impact on both the student and the nun's. I seem to remember they let us leave school early that day

I was probably energy being stored in multiple other vessels just ready to be the smashed together to become the being that is I.
Either that or the King of [insert country here], which of course I was, like everyone else, in a former life.
I'm other words, I was not born for well over a decade after the assassination.
I like this forum, it makes me feel young again

·I was in 8th grade at St Michaels grade school in Canon City, Colorado. All the nuns were sobbing, even the nuns I was convinced were incapable of any emotion.
We all gathered in the gym/cafeteria for the announcement and were then sent home.
We were shocked. As Catholics in a Catholic school, JFK and the Kennedy family were seen as the epitome of America.
Back in the 1960s, the media hid the indiscretions of the Presidents.
Years later I was in College and a Journalism major. I signed up to attend a lecture by Bob Woodward. The lecture was cancelled and we were told he and his partner were working on a really big story.

I was in Navy boot camp in San Diego. All of the recruits thought we were going to war.
