And condescension is so helpful, Mr Drago.
To get to point of your question, momentary unity would be leaps & bounds better than no unity. And of course sustained unity would be desired over all...it would be fantastic if we all could respectfully acknowledge that although we don't see eye to eye on certain aspects of the Kennedy assassination, we could UNIFY under the banner that JFK was killed by some form of conspiracy. And build on that.
Phil,
Yes, I would like to see some kind of organized event in Dealey Plaza for the 50th anniversary. What kind is to be determined. But I, at no time, ever imagined myself to be the one to organize ANY demonstration...but have considered participating in one possibly.
Because Mr. Drago asked, "And momentary unity is good for what, exactly?"
And I felt that, since I'm really a nobody on this forum, that the originators of the quotes in question could better explain what unity is good for. As for the specific quote which I chose...many historical figures have said something about unity - I could have chosen any number of them. I thought these to be appropriate.
Mark - the Sponsors of the public slaughter of JFK are smirking at the choice of the words of Henry Ford and Winston Churchill to articulate the nature of "unity".
The pages of your petitions will be the kindling of your funeral pyres.
I am 100% American
I believe JFK was killed as a result of a conspiracy.
I want our government release all withheld assassination related documents.
I believe that this can be achieved within the next two years.

And I believe the same is true of all of you.
No, none of this is true of me.

I believe JFK was publicly slaughtered. The "conspiracy" word needs to be used very carefully, because our Enemies have coopted it and use their phrase "Conspiracy Theory" to marginalize and demonize anyone who challenges Official History.
The release of "all withheld assassination related documents" might be nice in theory, but in practice it's simply a blind alley and a waste of time.
I don't understand your fourth sentence or its meaning.
So, none of your statement is true of me.

Mark: I am not trying to speak for CD here but I believe he is suggesting his frustration that after so long at this none of us are any closer to forcing the government, the media, the history book writers etc. to write the truth. Case in point in 1998, for the thirty fifth anniversary there were huge crowds. Vince Salandria was the keynote speaker in a line up of great speakers at the COPA convention. What did CNN report? That there were no crowds in Dealey Plaza. I have pictures someplace of just HOW big that crowd was. So it is very frustrating to feel so marginalized after now almost forty nine years.
Mr Drago, I pulled the "Distillery" from Mr Dragoo's post # 7 title. I suppose due to and/or with the idea/shape. But yes, T-shirts, plates, and maybe caps. And maybe an early start, "49 Years and Counting". Just a thought.
While the naivete associated with Mr. Prior's pursuit is not necessarily cause for condemnation, still I agree completely with Jan and Charles on this.
