Oswald didn't have any known association with the Mafia. Just because the Mafia, Johnson, or anyone else disliked or even hated the President doesn't mean they had him killed. Every President is hated by alot of people, it doesn't make them all guilty if he is killed. All the evidence clearly shows Oswald was the killer. I'd say if anything it could of been the Soviets behind it, but even they wanted nothing to do with Oswald after they found out what a loon he was. Oswald was a deranged liberal who hated his own country so when he heard about the President's route which was made public days in advance, he set up that sniper nest and it was easy pickings from there.

I'm curious to know why you think that at all. Some people say its because of Jack Ruby killing Oswald. But the truth is Jack Ruby was a Jewish business owner and he was not in the Mafia. He may have known a few people with such connections but that doesn't mean he was in it himself. Even on his death bed Jack Ruby said that no one else was behind it. He just did it thinking it would be better for the country and he never thought he'd get a death sentence from it. I'm sure alot of people in the country at that time would of loved to kill Oswald had they been given the chance. Ruby was just the first to be in that position.

It doesn't matter if some other people were talking about taking JFK out. It doesn't change the fact that Oswald killed the President. There was no connection between him and the mafia. There didn't need to be either, he had his own motives. There is a mountain of motive there, more than anyone in the mafia could of given him. He was a derranged liberal through and through. He admired communists/socialists, and he hated America. Ironically he would of felt right at home with modern day libs.

With all the players that had motive I can't accept Lee Oswald did this all alone.
I am am NOT a conspiracy person by any stretch. Just look at the motives and facts. View the video in the "On JFK" thread.
Some things to consider...
Start with Motive.......
I admit I have no clue what Oswald's motive may have been but the following had plenty.
Castro...Cuban Missle Crissis, Bay of Pigs, several assassination attempts by the CIA, the ban on travel and trade to Cuba.
Mafia...Daddy ran scotch with the assistance of the Mafia, it made him a rich man. They did have a hand in JFKs election, through unions etc. JFK began a crackdown on the 'MOB" through his AG, Bobby (NOT good). The Casinos in Cuba were also a big lose for them.
Hoover....JFK and Bobby were in a war with Hoover to take back government control of the FBI.
J Edgar was a pissed and very POWERFUL man. Remember this, Bobby was killed before Hoover died.
Johnson....A shady politician with questionable links to the Mob.
The total Warren Commission report has not been released as it should have been, portions still remain sealed. Why?
So, I have a difficult time believing one lone loon just did it and then he was dropped in the basement of the police station a day later. There's so much more....
It just doesn't add up to being one lone loon for me.
And that's my 2 cents..

THAT is the 64 million dollar question. In essence it clearly says there was "something" "somebody" didn't want "eveybody" to know, right?
Proof pro quo of a conspiracy.
LHO DID fire the Carcano. The bullet hit the president and killed him. Other than that, I don't think anyone alive today will live to see anything otherwise actually proven.
If you continue to think the way you have always thought, you will continue to get what you have always got!
A government big enough to provide you everything you need is big enough to take everything you have!
Actually I think this is why most people believe that it wasnt a conspiracy, because there would be a need for too may people to know and SOMEONE would talk. I think you could do this with very few people actually knowing. Maybe just a handful of powerful people.
Think about it. Someone (lets just say the VP) wants the president dead. Who else would need to know? HLO. And maybe just 1 or 2 high ranking people positioned in Dallas. Here is the scene:
They setup LHO to kill the president. 2 high ranking FBI or CIA officials are on the scene to oversee the parade. (They are in on the assasination). The president is shot, they would use their power or command to steer the witenesses and local police. With people running around and the chaos afterwards they could easily mold the outcome.
If you watch videos of the aftermath, you can see it was pure chaos at the Dallas police station when they were holding Oswald. They paraded him around right in front of media, they openly carried the rifle raised up in the air in a crowded hallway. They announced publically when they were going to transfer him to the county jail and into the Fed's hands. They were practically giving an open inventation for a public lynching.
I'm always much more inclined to believe in the utter incompetence and stupidity of government than I am in some grand conspiracy.
