General Discussion
Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsThe most important aspect of JFK's assassination
is our own opinion. We should definitely insult those who feel differently than we do. Phrases such as "close minded" and "gullible" are very important to use, and add greatly to the sharing of ideas when we discuss the topic. We all know what happened on that day, and our knowledge is superior to other people's silliness.
Special note for those who know a conspiracy was involved: Make sure to point out how those who think differently aren't living in the real world. The status quo/official version is a stupid lie for stupid people.
Special note for those who know Oswald was the lone shooter: Make sure to point out how those who think differently aren't living in the real world. These various conspiracies are a stupid lie for stupid people.

(20,709 posts)...the most important thing is to remember that it's all just a matter of opinion. There's no reason to make fun of a guy like Donald Trump for the "sin" of earnestly trying to get to the bottom of the unknowable mysteries regarding Obama's birthplace. Sure, I disagree with his opinion, but who's to say I'm "right" and he's "wrong"...

(2,191 posts)I mean, who cares if Jefferson owned slaves? What does it really matter if he had sex with Sally Hemmings and science proved it?
Facts are the same things as fantasies after all.

God forgive me.
