... which is refuted by accurate observation of the Zapruder film: The head snapped forward immediately after the hit (as did the cloud of blood and matter, by the way). My point remains that it's really the conspiracists who apparently believe in magical bullets, or else they believe that an unnecessarily elaborate and risky hoax and coverup was concocted for no apparent reason. My question is, why would they do that? Wouldn't you think the alleged perps could come up with something much simpler and less risky?
