I find it more interesting that no one ever mentions him getting shot in the throat first. 11 shots fired total, only 2 connected.
You really need to accept that it was not the driver but Jackie Kennedy. Spoiler http://jackieiskillerqueen.blogspot.com/ http://jackiekilledjfk.webs.com/wherestheevidence.htm [youtube]Eq-54szFXcs[/youtube] The truth will set you free.
Oh good grief. 1) If the driver shot him, wouldn't there be a few witnesses? Like Jackie, the passenger, and everyone else standing around that day? You know, a bunch of people who saw it happen point blank? 2) Wouldn't the ballistics have been quire a bit different if he'd been shot with a pistol at short range as opposed to a rifle at medium range ? 3) I am to trust a video that blacked out the grassy knoll? 4) How many brain cells did I just lose? 5) Is this the dumbest thread I've ever posted in on CF - even in the D&D? (Answers: Yes; Yes; No; probably somewhere north of 10K; No, as dumb as it is it probably isn't even Top 100)
This is an old theory that is less credible than the umbrella man. ... A theory rebounds The 50th anniversary has pumped new life into the market for JFK assassination books and documentaries. One of the strangest conspiracy theories now enjoying a second act was initially outlined in a 1992 book, Mortal Error: The Shot That Killed JFK. The book, written by Bonar Menninger, a Kansas City journalist, was based on ballistics analyses by firearms expert Howard Donahue. It alleges that Secret Service Agent George Hickey, riding in a convertible right behind the presidential limousine, accidentally shot JFK in the back of the head with an AR-15 assault rifle. So goes this theory: Forensic evidence of an entrance wound in the back of JFK’s head indicated that the “kill shot” was fired from street level, not from a sixth-floor window high above Dealey Plaza. After Oswald fired, an alarmed Hickey grabbed his AR-15 from the floorboard, clicked off the safety and stood up. Just then, the driver of the convertible accelerated unexpectedly, causing Hickey to fall back and accidentally pull the trigger. The bullet struck Kennedy in the back of the head. Witnesses reported smelling gunpowder at street level. Hickey, of course, denied firing his rifle. And none of the other seven people in his car — five other Secret Service agents and two presidential advisers, Dave Powers and Ken O’Donnell — reported a gunshot flying past their heads. Author Menninger has an explanation for that: The Secret Service, he says, engineered a cover-up to protect its reputation. Bugliosi and other critics call this a classic conspiracy theory: There’s not a stitch of evidence to support it. But that’s because the evidence has been covered up by powerful forces. Before he died in 2011, Hickey sued St. Martin’s Press, the publisher of Menninger’s book, for libel. The parties reached an out-of-court settlement. Now that the Secret Service agent is no longer around to defend himself, an obscure cable television channel has aired a documentary, JFK: The Smoking Gun, that resurrects the accidental-assassin theory. “It’s too preposterous to talk about,” Bugliosi said. “I won’t dignify it.” ...

It's nice how they managed to take the camera-shake out of the Zapruder film. But, I don't see the driver holding any gun, so I'm not sure where this is coming from.
