From Wikipedia….
The magic bullet theory….
According to the single bullet theory, a one-inch long, copper jacketed, lead core 6.5 millimeter rifle bullet fired from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository passed through President Kennedy’s neck, Governor Connally’s chest and wrist and embedded itself in the Governor’s thigh. In doing so, the bullet traversed 15 layers of clothing, 7 layers of skin, and approximately 15 inches of tissue, struck a tie knot, removed 4 inches of rib and shattered a radius bone. The bullet that is supposed to have done all this damage was found on the stretcher used by Governor Connally in the corridor at the Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas after the assassination.[2] It became a key Commission exhibit, identified as CE399. Its copper jacket was completely intact.
Without the Magic bullet theory, there had to be more the three shots fired.
I know many people will say forget it, it happened soo… long ago. I was ten when this happened, but hearing about this magic bullet theory didn’t make sense to me than and still doesn’t today.
I had an uncle who was a police man, very conservative and not a fan of Kennedy to begin with back then. I still have an image of him shaking his head when I showed him the Warren commissions report. He started shaking his head ,saying “ something is not right hereâ€Â…..
Thanks in advance for any comments.
