Castro Figured out the JFK Assassiantion in Five Days

[Tracy Riddle]

I've often asked lone-nutters, Why didn't Oswald just stand on the sidewalk and rush out into the street with his pistol and shoot JFK at point blank range (like other Presidential assassins?) Because, they say, he wanted to get away (or he was a coward and wanted to shoot from ambush). Well, he had no reasonable expectation of being able to get away from the building under normal circumstances. And he certainly had no carefully thought-out plan of escape (like getting on a bus leaving town). He also didn't bring his pistol with him the last time he was at his boarding house (it would have been easy to carry in a lunch bag), instead having to go back and retrieve it. As for being a coward, that's just the usual psycho-babble.
