Dead President's Day, I guess

[Nothing But Net]

My bud and I traveled to Dallas this weekend for Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival. Awesome concert. More on that later but on the way home we decided to stop by Dealey Plaza.

40 years later, there is still confusion over which direction the shots came from.

Old Dallas City Hall. It has fucking gargoyles on it, for Christ's sake.

The 'Cheesebox' where the trainmaster spotted other assassins:

The infamous Book Suppository Building:

Entry to the Texas School Book Depository. Notice no firearms are allowed. Too bad they didn't have that rule 40 years ago. I also found humorous that they don't sell shot glasses in the gift shop.

"You can't say that Dallas doesn't love you, Mr. President!"

X marks the spot of the fatal shot. It is amazing how many people go out and stand on it , and it is still a busy street. There ought to be a few crosses on the side of the road as well.

The Grassy Knoll:

Abraham Zapruder was standing approximately where the small piece of paper is on the grass in this shot.
