So far in all the 50th
anniversary coverage of the assassination of John Kennedy I’ve found not one
reference to the obvious location of the front sniper’s nest where common sense
and a few discoveries of my own have convinced me of its existence. My suspicions along with millions of other
Americans had been firmly planted when a political context or motive of the
shooting was never discussed by the Media.
Baby Boomers, after all, grew up on TV shows similar to Dragnet.
Even if you didn’t like history, The
Rise and Fall of the Third Reich was a best seller among us. In other
words, Baby Boomers are the most educated generation in history. The power brokers stood no chance in trying
to fool all of the people all of the time.
It was the study of the assassination in minute detail in context over
decades colliding with suppressed evidence that spurred conspiracy theorists
on, not the convenient explanation of simple minded people concluding that a
lone gunman could not have done something so earth shaking.
Being from the Ozarks and handling
weapons had much to do with my evaluation of the assassination and that’s apart
from the political considerations written about in my Journal of the Silent Majority to be published. The Zapruder footage indicates a front
shooter. The genius of Oliver Stone’s JFK was that it dared to show the film
in political context; history does not take place in a vacuum. My disappointment came when he failed to
locate the front gunman’s position, but my concern didn’t last long. Then came Votescam:
The Stealing of America by James and Kenneth Collier, a team of
investigating reporters who researched how the Media co-opted America’s vote
tabulation process. With a lead from “assassination
buff” Mae Brussell, they agreed that the Media supported the Warren’s
Commission findings in return for the tabulation authority. Indeed, Associated Press published The Warren Report and after many media
transformations ended up with the tabulation monopoly.
When the Collier Brother’s
investigated the roots of the securing of the national tabulation authority,
they stumbled into the CIA-Media conspiracy that sanctioned it. The least they could do was to locate the
front sniper’s nest . . . and they did.
The last 30 minutes of their film sequel, Votescam: The Stealing of America, not only shows the likely spot
of the nest based on bullet trajectory and witness accounts, but reveals the
hidden drain cavity itself. My sketch is
based on the film. The film made in
1988, further reinforced my own conclusion of conspiracy. In all the JFK coverage so far I’ve not seen
one mention of the Collier brothers or the storm drain nest.
Wait. Is not that enough? In a similar not-ever-mentioned book, That Day in Dallas, by Richard Trask, a
photo records witnesses to the smell of gun smoke and of the sound of rifle
shots rushing to the exact spot. (Reporter
Robert MacNeil is shown hanging on to the fence.) My sketch shows the approximate layout of the
underground escape passage superimposed on the grassy knoll. So, for me to believe there was a front
shooter, it was the Zapruder film. For
me to locate the JFK sniper’s nest, it involved two more critical pieces of
evidence to prove its existence and it took many years to do it.
