We stopped in Dallas on our way east to visit an old friend of Jeff’s and while there we went into the city to see the spot where JFK was assassinated.\u00a0 The building where the Book Depository was at has become a museum with a lot of information about the event, the photographers, the conspiracy theories, the trial etc.\u00a0 It was very interesting.<\/p>\n
They had glassed around the window where Lee Harvey Oswald fired the shots, but from the next window over we could see the line of sight that he used to fire down onto the motorcade.<\/p>\n
We also walked around on the ‘grassy knoll’ and the street, which is marked with “X”s to show where the president’s car was at for the shots.<\/p>\n
Jeff and I are both convinced that Lee Harvey Oswald could not have fired three shots in such rapid succession with the precision that would have been necessary to account for all the hits to JFK and Connelly.\u00a0 The single-shot, bolt action, rather clunky\u00a0rifle that he used…the different angles of the three shots…just doesn’t work!<\/p>\n
Here are some pictures we took of the area:<\/p>\n
