This can only be one of the nut cases from DUh.


Man dead in apparent suicide at site of JFK assassination
Friday, December 12, 2003 Posted: 1:14 PM EST (1814 GMT)

DALLAS, Texas (AP) -- A man apparently shot himself to death early Friday on the "X" in Dealey Plaza that marks the spot where President John F. Kennedy was assassinated 40 years ago, authorities said.

Witnesses said they saw a man in a camouflage jacket holding a gun on his chest and lying in the middle of the street on the spray painted "X," an unofficial memorial maintained by the publisher of a local conspiracy theory publication.

"I can honestly say I've seen it all," said Ron Rice, who works at the nearby Conspiracy Museum in downtown Dallas.

Rice said it initially appeared that the man had been struck by a vehicle. When police arrived, they found a man shot in the head and a small caliber revolver, Dallas Police Department spokesman Chris Gilliam said.

According to the Dallas County Medical Examiner's office, the man, who was not immediately identified, was in his 40s.

Kennedy was fatally shot as his motorcade drove through Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963.

A hardcore DUer would never wear a camo jacket.
Plus they don't own any guns.

Which brings the total bodycounty for roadway memorials to what, now? And how are they going to commemorate this guy's death? A smaller X on the macadam? A different color?

Nah... you're all missing the REAL story here.

This guy is obviously... THE SECOND SHOOTER.

...only he's a little late and shot himself instead of Kennedy.

P.S. Not that I cared about John F., Bobby, or JFK Jr., but how in the hell out of all those Kennedy's is Ted the one still alive? God left him to curse us? ONLY the good die young? He's there so show us all how STUPID the voters of MA are? Someone tell me the answer please...

How about just leaving the brains and blood to harden into crusty scabs in remembrance?

What did they mean a man "shot himself?"

Doesn’t everyone know that those evil assault revolvers are really what killed him?

Damn republican media lies!

You give the DUers too much credit. None of them would have the courage to take their own life.

I didn't say they weren't crazy. I just think that they lack the moral fiber to pull the trigger on themselves. They could kill someone else, or try suicide by cop perhaps. But I think they fear death and pain too much. Really, most of them are at a juvenile level psychologically.

Wouldn't the revolver be thrown from his hand due to the recoil?

Suicides happen very frequently over the holidays.  The poor guy was probably a vet and lost his wife somehow and felt that it would be symbolic to die where JFK was fatally wounded.  At least he'd get his name into the news and maybe the girl he lost would hear about and feel bad for him.

He should have gotten a computer and come to ARFCOM, maybe he'd have found some friends or something and he'd still be here. [V]

Drinking again? And so early, yet!

Nope, the [b][red]BOYZ[/red][/b] to whom you refer are quite unlikely to do anything so...pointless!

If I'm going to lie on the street, I want a federal judge under each arm in a headlock!

BTW, [red]take it from one who uses the word with regularity[/red], the correct phrase is [red]'a mite'[/red], not 'amight.'
