40th anniversary of JFK's assassination in Dallas

sablescort · 11-21-2003, 10:58 PM

Heads-up:

Let's honor the man if he hadn't been shot in Dealey Plaza 40 years ago today, America would have been much different, eh?

In memory of John Fitzgerald Francis Kennedy, 35th President of the United States

Born May 29, 1917, Brookline, Massachusetts
Died November 22, 1963, Dallas, Texas.

Arnold Schwarzenegger (even though he's a Republican) is carrying on the Kennedy political legacy in California and IMO his actions right now in California would make JFK proud.

Please don't post any conspiracy theory threads....it's pretty complicated and I would rather honor JFK and his legacy on this thread.

Second you...JFK indeed had quite an impact on a lot of people back then while he was in the Oval Office -- pity that he got assassinated. He had a lot to offer despite claims of extra martial affairs and so forth, he still was a well respected person.

I may not be American, but I have been informed of what he has done in his time as president and I have to say that he should be honoured and remembered.

Does anyone here on AllDeaf remember the Kennady assasisnation? I was talking to my parents the other night about it and they were telling me all about their memories of the Kennady assisination (both of them were in 5th grade)
A couple of years ago when I went to visit my grandparents, they let me rummage through a collection of old newspapers that they had saved from various and sundry historial events and they had one from the Kennady assisination!

i agree -- JFK did great in his time -- i was not even in existance at the time but from my talks with my parents from years ago and they were already married but had not yet had my older sister -- they said JFK was the most popular president and remmied of the shock of the assination -- they even kept the old Washington Star (now defunct) paper from 1963

When I live in Dallas and I have been pass where JFK shot. I felt strange on that street where he was shot!

I turned look up toward to the building where Lee Harvey Oswald was.

:rme: @ illustrator

I talked to my father about that once, and he told me that he was in his senior year in high school when Kennedy was killed. He said that he was in a class, and some teacher came running through the door, spreading the news. Then the rest of the day, they listened to news broadcasting on the public address announcements. He said that everyone were shocked, and could not believe that the president has been assissinated. He said it was kind of like a numb feeling of shock, not knowing what would happen next.

Why don't we do the equal hommage to the other presidents? Oh well...

I remmy - yeah Im old enough to remmy.

I remember my grandparents crying in the living room and I was so confused and they couldnt explain to me what was going on, but what I got was that someone had killed a good man in Texas, and that we would miss him very much. Later on, I asked my Grandma what that was all about, and she was surprised that I had remembered that. She told me that it had been JFK that had been shot that day and and that she and Grandpa had planned to take me to Hays, KS that day to get new shoes. Suffice to say, we did not go that day.
