[QUOTE="Man in the Funny Hat, post: 6224267, member: 32740"] Oswald killed JFK (and officer Tippit) and nobody helped him, financed him, used him as a dupe or patsy, or otherwise perpetrated or participated in any conspiracy. There are questions and inconsitencies about it because security was not well-handled, the investigation was poorly done, and the general chaos and confusion caused by the event itself. Kennedy's personality and the influences of television combined to enable the ordinary citizen to so very closely identify with him and then destroyed their grasp of normalcy by his death. That's why people (certainly at that time) could not or would not be satisfied with the obvious answer. They didn't want to accept that such a high-profile, adored, and extraordinarily protected person could be killed by a solitary weak and worthless individual - so they made up and subscribed to ever more extraordinary theories to fit their preferred world-view rather than adjust their world view to fit reality. Even today much of this conspiracy mythology extends from that DEEP desire not to have to believe that our reality is so messy and uncontrollable - that even when you do everything "right", the world can snatch the rug from under you and give you the most unsatisfactory explanations why (if any).
