Why no, I’ve never done literally any research on this topic, but I’m pretty sure I’ve cracked this mystery.
I’ve heard a theory that a secret service agent riding in the car behind him was hungover and accidentally pulled the trigger of his gun and hit Kennedy as the convoy went over a bump in the road which would be hilarious but seems incredibly unlikely.
That one’s kind of the :grill: -pilled JFK conspiracy because it’s kinda nonpartisan, but at the same time it assumes that they just picked Lee Harvey Oswald at random as a patsy hours to minutes afterward.
This theory is usually combined with the official story as well. It’s not that the secret service just did it while going over a bump but he grabbed his gun in response to the original shot from Oswald and then also shot JFK.
This explains the magic bullet element of the case to a certain extent.
It was popularized by The Last Podcast on The Left. I know a few people who were convinced by it.
I tried to give a listen but they’re just too annoying. It’s also just an annoying theory / argument, you’re trying to tell me that it’s more likely to have been a freak accident than intentional?
It was first advanced in the book Mortal Error. To my mind it accepts the least illuminating evidence (forensic analysis and bullet trajectories) and discards the most illuminating evidence (the associations and biographies of the people surrounding the assassination, and the production of the Warren Report itself).
