Princips caused WW1 so even if the attempt wasn't the best he still gets top billing by default. But what a shot by that Oswald guy, right? *wink wink*

Even if Oswald made that shot I deduct points for being a sniper as opposed to up close and personal with a daring escape.

Are you saying being a sniper is less cool than being an actor? A theater actor?

jwb 04-14-2020 02:08 PM

If you're such a good actor that you shoot the president and an audience full of armed soldiers think it's part of the play, then yea.

Maybe they just thought no one would be stupid enough to jump off a second floor balcony and break their leg if they weren't acting.

jwb 04-14-2020 02:20 PM

Their mistake. Meanwhile the killer got away on their watch and now who has egg on their face?

The Batlord 04-14-2020 02:22 PM

The guy with the broken leg who couldn't get away.

He got away from the scene of the crime. Then they had the biggest manhunt in American history at that time to track him down.

Bigger than OJ?

I could be wrong but I think John Wilkes Booth was pre-OJ.
