The assassination of John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States, was an event that shook the country and sparked fear and conspiracy theories ever since it occurred in Dallas, Texas , on November 22, 1963. The man believed responsible at the time was Lee Harvey Oswald, a former Marine who is thought to have acted alone in the murder and committed the crime alone. Oswald's arrest made the country wonder if this was really the case, and doubts soon began to creep in as people wondered what really happened. Looking at the numerous pieces of evidence in the case and the facts surrounding the murder, it is evident that Oswald did not in fact act alone: ​​it is quite evident that there is likely a larger plot or conspiracy surrounding the murder. Many conspiracy theorists believe that Oswald did not act alone, and general public opinion on the matter is the same. It can be seen that there was some kind of conspiracy based on the numerous witnesses present at that time, the results of Kennedy's autopsy and even the recorded video of the incident which shows that it is very clear that the "lone gunman theory" is not the truth behind the murder and that Oswald could not have acted alone. The theory that there was a conspiracy or larger plot surrounding the murder is still very popular and widely debated today as people struggle to uncover the truth behind the assassination. On November 22, 1963, John F. Kennedy was in Dealey Plaza, Dallas. , Texas. John F. Kennedy, Jackie Kennedy, Governor Connally and his wife, as well as 2 drivers, were driving in a motorcade through the streets of the square when suddenly shots were fired at the car. Of the people who witnessed the event, approximately 80% admit to having heard 3 shots explode. There is a... middle of paper... all suggesting that there was a second person involved. Groups like the CIA, Mafia, Mob, or KGB also seem to be a popular target for conspiracy theories and cause the public to question whether or not our government killed the president. Even after 51 years, public opinion on the assassination remains the same. The vast majority of people believe there was a conspiracy, and despite the official truth being that Oswald acted alone, Kennedy's assassination is a widely debated topic that continues to be discussed today. Whatever the truth, whether Oswald acted alone or whether a conspiracy was actually involved, the fact remains that Kennedy's assassination changed our country forever.
