That moment when you come to terms with the fact that one of your parents is a fucking idiot.
I'm guessing they've been aware of that for a long time.
Oh sure, all of the FBI, CIA, Secret Service, police, and whatever other secret entities in the government we don't know about couldn't figure it out.
But Joe Nobody somehow has the knowledge to find that one piece of evidence that pulls it all together. Some people really are nuts.
For these people, this shadow government is both competent enough to achieve the most involved conspiracies, but at the same time, incompetent enough that Joe Nobody could just show up, look at the scene 60 years after the fact and figure it all out with their ambient temperature IQ (in Celsius).
There's plenty to criticize our governments for already.
60 years later, nonetheless. Fucking delusional.
This dad almost certainly was born after JFK's death. Why does he even care?
I feel like nobody in this thread has been to the actual, official 6th floor museum in Dallas. They play up every "conspiracy" explanation you can imagine.
They have the exact spot in the book depository (the book depository is the museum) where Oswald was shooting, but they also have the alphabet agency sound dissection where the actual experts predict multiple shots occurred with a diarama of where the shots may have eminated from.
They have like the suit of the guy who shot Oswald and they really talk on printed images about how weird it all is.
When you go outside they have plaques on both the grassy knoll and the area directly behind it saying this is where possible other shooters were.
I think the plaque commemorating the death says allegedly.
Ah Texas
He's gonna crack that case open 60 years later as well.
Hey Tupac’s murder case saw some movement lol
That one piece of evidence that has somehow survived 60 years, but also has been missed by the hundreds of experts and thousands of other "free thinkers" who scoured the area over the years.
And something that’s sturdy enough that 60 years of being in a street downtown won’t destroy
Give him credit. He already solved six other great mysteries (building the pyramids, stonehenge, lindberg baby, and three others I couldn't be bothered to think of), he's just not getting due press about it.
I don't know one way or another. But it feels like the dad could just be a funny person who said a funny thing. Like a joke, by a dad. A father joke, you could call it.
Everyone out here with the psychological profile of the guy based on one humorous tweet.
The kind of father I am going to be, lmao. Saying batshit so my children think that I am actually insane, while having the ability to provide to the family and keep a good life. I think this is one of the most fatherly skills. A dad can come up to a son and say things like "led lightbulbs are bad, they don't warm the room like the old ones" (my dad actually said that, while working with electrical engineering).
Man, there really are people here thinking this guy is delusional and not funny
Man, remember when your country's kooks were all "The CIA killed JFK" and "They're hiding aliens at Area 51", rather than being all "Ukraine belongs to Russia" and "The Nazis had some good ideas".
I see a lot of, "My conspiracy talking points closely align with American adversaries and are actually foreign propaganda used to destabilize me and my compatriots" these days.
"What do you mean 'voting doesn't matter' is explicitly a Russian line made to discredit democratic process‽"
That last one used to be said by normal people and kooks in the past.
I wouldn't call anyone who says the last one normal.
Yup, the unlimited resources of the federal government handled the original investigation...
But you alone, Cletus, have the ability to truly figure out what happened, as you munch on a bag of Cheetos.
Yeah he's going to find a bullet case in the FBI missed, that has been just lying around on the ground for decades, and a written confession that was left behind field in an airtight container to preserve it.
I actually highly recommend visiting the JKF Museum in Dallas (which is at the location he was shot). It was an interesting experience. It was cool to compare the pictures of the location with the present day. A lot of it is exactly the same except with thicker foliage.
They even have the spot on the street marked with an X so you can see it as you drive over.
My favorite part is watching the people try to go have their picture standing on the X, not realizing that the second that light turns green, there are going to be 3 lanes of traffic barreling right towards them.
And the two guys on the grassy knoll selling their conspiracy pamphlet were pretty entertaining too, NGL.
That is a video knocking around online somewhere which is the stabilized footage of the assassination overlaid on top of modern imagery.
My biggest takeaway from this is that there's been basically no new builds in Dallas since that date.
No, it's the same. The foliage (trees) was cut right after the assassination, strangely enough
It's funny to realize that JFK was, culturally, like the Boomer's 9/11. Except that 9/11 is also the Boomer's 9/11. Generationally speaking, they're very afraid of everything and never let go of grudges.
9/11 was a terrible tragedy, but nowhere near as terrible as our government's response to it. After the attacks the country was more unified than at any point since WWII. Instead of using the attacks as a catalyst to continue bringing the country together, Bush used them as a wedge to drive us apart. Then the government continued using the event as an excuse to expand their power, violate the constitution, and snap up liberties.
Don't forget about the killing of innocents as "revenge" at a rate of about 100 to 1
And you just described my mom perfectly lol
So, they're the dwarfs of Warhammer Fantasy
That’s going in the book! You’ll rue the day you insulted the dawi you uzumgi!
Is your dad
Dale GribbleRusty Shackleford?You know why it's called FBI, don't you?
"Fix It Again, Tony!"
You don't know who I am but I know where you live
As a non american I would totally do this though, just for the luls. Maybe it's a nono in the US because of the reaction in the comments here.
Suspicions about JFK's assassination are actually some of the more "acceptable" conspiracy theories to believe in, in the US. However, I think Lemino's recent video has shown the online community that there really isn't much, if any, room to argue that it wasn't Oswald.
Lemmino CIA psyop confirmed.
Doing it for a joke is fine. Actually thinking you're going to find something that the FBI missed and the thousands of other conspiracy nuts missed is pretty stupid and/or arrogant though.
The truth is that Lee Harvey got one hell of a lucky shot and for some people that's just unbelievable.
Nah, he missed and the drunk secret service agent in the tail car fumbled on the return shot
Even explained this way, it still sounds like Oswald got lucky in a "task failed successfully" kind of way. 🤣
We Stephen Sondheim fans know that John Wilkes Booth talked him into it.
No one gonna mention that it happened about sixty years ago?
Their dad obviously thinks of himself as a Sherlock Holmes character who will see a random mark and immediately solve the case.
Ah, so OP is Joseph Gribble, then.
Pocket sand!
"Could the second gunman have been hiding up one of these trees?"
Dad, those trees were saplings at the time!
autism perhaps
Is that your professional diagnosis, Dr. Armchair?
I'm autistic and thought what the dad said was something I'd also say. I've chosen positivity for this reply, but I want to let you know your comment has upset me.
