A defining moment of the twentieth century: the assassination of John F. Kennedy. On November 22nd, 1963, the president of the United States of America was travelling in a motorcade down the streets of Dallas, Texas, when three loud shots rang out through the air (Summary). In an instant, President Kennedy had been brutally shot and killed, startling people worldwide. At the time, such a gruesome attack was unheard of-- after all, who would want to harm the man who gave the country hope? (ABC). The series of uncanny events continued to leave a lasting impression when Lee Harvey Oswald, the accused assailant, was murdered on live television only two days later. This notorious happening has been claimed to be the beginning of one of the most widely disputed events over time, fueling conspiracy theorists belief that there is more to the story to be told. However, more than 40 years later, investigators have still failed to satisfy the American people with a definitive answer to th e burning question: was Oswald the only shooter? A week after the Dealey Plaza affair, newly pronounced president Lyndon Johnson established the Warren Commision to research and analyze the assassination of John F. Kennedy (Properly). After a deep and thorough investigation, government officials proclaimed that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in killing the president. â€Å"The commission attempted to answer, specifically, every such theory and rumor,† that the general people had expressed (NYT).Show MoreRelatedOne Significant Change That Has Occurred in the World Between 1900 and 2005.
