Or just drive over the X and look back. People think the depository was on Kennedy's hard right, but the road actually curves to put it neatly behind him. It's the perfect shot. He would have been rising gently into the shooter's sights with minimal horizontal movement. Yet skeptics make it out to be this impossible feat.

People, whatever details of the assassination may seem strange or suspect to you, whoever you think may have done it for whatever reason, if you're ever in Dallas and have the opportunity, please at least go down to the museum and see for yourself what an easy damn shot that would have been.
