Why have none of the assassins of presidents of the US gotten away with it? What are they, stupid? They're certainly incompetent.

You're smart /sci/. How would you get away with it?

Get away with what?

>> No.2556379

I wouldn't shoot him, that's for sure. There are a million people around, dozens of whom are paid good money to make sure he's okay. If you manage to shoot him, you're instantly fucked.
I'd say poison. Not sure why no one has done it yet.

To clarify, I'm not sure why no one has tried to poison any president, I'm not asking why someone hasn't tried to assassinate the current president.

They all acted alone. However it's not entirely clear how any group outside the US Government itself would manage to do it in a coordinated fashion, the Emper-I mean President's security entourage is huge, well equipped, well organized and has a formidable technological advantage. Any direct threat to the President's life would have to be someone within the Secret Service, or an outright military attack, possibly of nuclear scale.

Lee Harvey Oswald was fucking assassinated as an innocent man. He never stood trial. so unless you are all willing to say that someone is guilty before proven innocent, rather than innocent until proven guilty, then remember that he died an innocent man

Ed Mitchell, the 6th man on the moon on the Apollo 14 mission says there are extraterrestrial structures on the far side of the moon, and a massive coverup to monopolize and capitalize on the technology and information.

not if noone ever landed on the moon, apparently

Because the police have the resources to catch every fucking criminal. True story, it just depends on if they're willing to pull out all the stops to get you.

If you kill the most important person on earth (lolnotreally but to the masses it looks that way) they will catch you.

You'd have multiple organizations working against you and no matter how smart you are you're not going to be able to outwit the scores of geniuses trying to track you down

Well I dont live in America so if I was to assasinate my leader I'd just execute the two members of law enforcement that watch his property, and then I would simply gain entrance to his house and kill him at my leisure.
Of course I would not do this, I do not actually have any problems with the man and if I did I would simply vote against him.

If I were to kill the American president, I would [I have decided to censor this part of my post as I believe that submitting it would be extremely irresponsible] when he shook my hand.

Of course I would never do this either, he is a head of state of an allied country.

By the way, it is my understanding that in the United States any verbal threat towards the rpesident must be followed up upon by the secret service. Is this true of written word as well?

i think the point is that they WILL catch SOMEONE and whether they did it or not, they are really totally fucked.

Best evidence for the moonlanding happening = the russians

at the time they had infiltrated most of our government, do you think that if they couldnt independently verify the moon landing they would have just been quiet about it? naw dude

there is a fucking video of it. there are thousands of engineers that worked on it. if you look at all the plans and calculations they did, the shit should have gotten us to the moon. If they had all the resources and the ability to do it..... why not just do it?

>> No.2556557

>>2556547
you can also see the moon landing sites, and shine lasers at the reflectors they put up there, if you have the right equipment.

Not to mention the fact that the Russians tracked the whole thing with their radars.

I don't rightly know, it'll certainly be interesting to see if the FBI show up, I doubt it though because I have no plans to kill someone I voted for either.
>>2556392
is also why there's no reason to kill the man.

I simply see the ineffectiveness of Lee Oswald or John Wilkes Booth to get away (nobody ever really talks about those other two guys) so I wondered, why were they so ineffectual?

lincoln was hated. they didnt really think they'd need to get away from very much. they wanted to be known, which is why they did it in such a dramatic fashion. They thought they'd be viewed as heroes
