#MSNBC #Kennedy #JackRuby
I watched it live with my grandparents when I was 5 years old and still remember it.
Me too.
I had just left. My kid sister saw it. She screamed!
oh cool
Jack Ruby was not innocent. He was caught in the act. Just because he died before his 2nd trial doesn't make him less guilty. So many conspiracy theories. We may never learn the truth.
The truth is there for everyone to see. You just have to read it all to put it together. Oswald was an agent/operative of the CIA under the direction of charter member, George H W Bush, also of the CIA. Bush was in Dallas that morning. He left before the hit which he planned, then manufactured an alibi for himself and misdirected the FBI's investigation sending them on a wild goose chase after a man in Houston that afternoon.
Go ask Bush Jnr , he seems to have difficulty as to his wherabouts on nov22 1963

@@Ventuura that's completely out of left field. I have read dozens of books about Kennedy and the assassination, dozens of books about some of the players (ie books about J Edgar Hoover's involvement with organized crime and their hold over him). Jack had a lot of enemies for a lot of different reasons, but you have laid one out that I've never come across in any of my reading which started in 1968 with Arthur Schlesinger's book, A THOUSAND DAYS.
Why is our judicial system so excruciatingly slow now⁉️
They could go a lot faster but it takes time to make sure all of the rights of the accused are protected.
It is about as likely that Oswald pulled those shots off as Epstein hanging himself.

The majority of the files were released by trump in 2018 minus names, addresses etc etc
@@toughtittypdiddy4634 Don’t give DJT the credit for that. Those documents were required to be released from an order given twenty-five years previously. Even so, they were heavily redacted, and not much information could be gleaned from them.
@@hazelanderson1479 True,but most are unaware that the most important,which were released in the 1990's destroy the official fairytales and those are the Medical Personnel at both Hospitals interviewed for the HSCA in the late 70's, and suppressed till the 90's and the ARRB released them in the mid 90's.
Actually, a reporter has seen all of the files because he was working on the JFK Museum. He wasn't allowed to take any photos. The only files you haven't seen are to do with rumors and personal things about the Kennedys. The Kennedy family doesn't want them released.
@@TELEVISIONARCHIVES sure lol
I definitely wouldn't call him " Kennedy's avenger " more like the janitor who cleans up lose ends...its 2021 you can't possibly still believe in the magic bullet nonsense and Oswald being the lone gunman....please

@Tautriadelta yes that "tape " or film , don't get in your feelings because I'm not falling for that BS ,look believe whatever floats your boat ...but in that film he is clearly hit from the front, I've seen ppl get hit by me and others so I know what it looks like ..Oswald was unstable and couldn't be trusted, got rid of him, then get rid of who got rid of him everyone was solid, secret kept....its 2021 no one believes the story your telling anymore...
@Tautriadelta not even going to read your fake book you wrote..you wasted your time..as I've said believe what you want I'm not falling for that BS...lmao at you...

@Tautriadelta just to be clear, you have no idea what I believe, it was never given, I simply stated I don't believe whatever that so-called scenario you wrote..which sounds like what the government told to Americans then and it just kept going till now...but I need to think for myself, your a funny guy/ girl/they etc.etc..
"if you're an assassin you get there on time". Well he did. Right on time. Either he knew when Oswald was coming out or they waited till Ruby got there.
The idea that Ruby "would have been on time" in the event of a conspiracy as evidence CONTRADICTING a conspiracy is belied by the fact----and it is a fact---that Oswald was walked out into the crowd of people within minutes of Ruby arriving on the scene. The issue is what delayed Oswald's transport time, and how Ruby managed to arrive at a time that only law enforcement knew was to be the "new" transport time for Oswald? I think that Dan is missing the fact that a simple phone call to Ruby minutes before Oswald was to be transported would have placed Ruby in position at the perfect time.
Remember, there were no portable phones back then. If he was making a wire transfer at the time, he would have had to receive the call at the facility where he was doing business on their phone.
@@PrimeObserver-1 so what's that mean
@@morganbanefort181 That this is a preposterous scenario.
Actually car phones were invented in like 1946 and maybe ruby could have a walkie talkie or a police band radio in his car I watched a video the signal was Sheriff Lavelle in his white suit standing in the 3rd floor window which just happens to be right across the parking lot from the Western Union Telegram station where Ruby was that day wiith his 2 dogs out in the car.
@@PrimeObserver-1 Or at a payphone.
I'll never forget watching it live on TV, maybe 13 years old. The screaming in my home, the heart break and knowing something special had been destroyed.
I was a couple of years younger than you and my family attended Kennedy's funeral. A great tragedy for America.
I was 2years old and on the other side of the world..but whenever I studied at school or read about JFK and his presidency. I can't help but wonder had he been alive to complete his terms how would it have changed the world we live in now..😔🙏🧐

The way Ruby was allowed to shoot Oswald proves that some of the Dallas police had to have been in on it, especially those who were leading him through the crowd.
Yep....they said Jack hung out at the Police Dept. HQ all the time.
He wasn't "allowed" to shoot anyone. It proves absolutely nothing other than we know who pulled the trigger. What is wrong with you people? Is everything a frickin conspiracy to you? Lay off the Alex Jones koolaid.
@@nebtheweb8885 The next time you watch Ruby shooting Oswald, just look at the expression of the detective in the light suit who’s holding Oswald.

Your aware that this entire “conspiracy” was by the CIA. Our government killed our President….Look up the doc, Louis Joyland West. He visited Ruby. He was a psychiatrist that was contracted for CIA..and a prominent player in the mkultra experiments with mind control….The documents just confirm the right amount of info. It’s unbelievable.
Oswald was not brought out until Ruby had arrived. Why else was Ruby in the garage if Oswald was meant to have left hours earlier? His key advantage as an assassin was that he could enter the police station as someone familiar to the police. Hence he got the order for the killing despite his small-time status.
What was the point of this book?
Ruby the super secret assassin. Lol. The placement of his shot was dreadful. Oswald should have lived.
A true assassin would have blasted him in the chest multiple times.
@@jimmycricket5366 I think the point was to go over the details of the trial itself, but the author seems a bit naive about how things went down in the police station that day. Like taking Ruby's word that the officer didn't see him as gospel truth? Laughable. Ruby was an assassin who knew he was dying of cancer...that's another reason he was chosen to do the hit.
The news downplayed Ruby’s role. He was involved w the mafia.

I was watching when Oswald was murdered too. I could not believe it was real. It looked staged to me, like they walked Oswald right into Ruby. I was 10 then, what did I know, just what I saw, and that's what it looked like to me.
Hi from Savannah 👋
Interesting topic but his 3 reasons as to why he wasn’t a “hired assassin” don’t hold much weight...
I do agree. In fact it is more acceptable to hire a "loser" to carry out something hugely important. He must have also been briefed to say what he said, that he couldn't quite remember, etc, etc. They clearly managed to convince him that his forgetfulness once planted in judge and jury's head will rescue him.
I wouldn't waste my money on this book. More conspiracy theories.

@@gs8099 yep! The dog in the car??? Someone can pick him up at the pound lol
@@Emy53 The book REFUTES conspiracy theories.
The biggest shocker is that Ruby and Oswald knew each other. This was a classic mob hit. Ruby wasn't trying to save Jackie from the agony of having to return to Dallas for Oswald's crime. He was trying to shut up the Patsy.
No, they didn’t know each other

A theory is by definition speculative.
@@LardGreystoke no, a hunch is
I know he was a loser. But to say a man that was unsuccessful was a loser is not right. Not everyone that is unsuccessful is a loser.
At 6:50 into this video Dan Abrams discounts the notion that Jack Ruby was part of a conspiracy to silence Oswald because Ruby arrived to the basement of the Dallas courthouse only minutes before Oswald was being escorted out of the building. However that very observation could instead be used to support the case that Ruby was in fact part of a conspiracy: once Ruby gained entry (or was let into) the basement a co-conspirator cop could have then gotten word to other another co-conspirator cop escorting Oswald that Ruby was in place so it was time to bring Oswald out and into Ruby's path.
This proposal is not at all far fetched: Jack Ruby was friendly with many Dallas cops because they would frequent his Carousel Club.
That's exactly what happened. Ruby was notified at the precise moment to show up and shoot Oswald. There was no need to get there early and wait around.
Ruby's last words to his dog: "Sheba, you're on your own."
(Apologies to Mel Brooks ;)
@@theblakex Even LHO's manner, as he was walked out, indicated that he found the whole situation a bit suspicious
You can plainly hear two beeps from a car horn-perhaps a "signal"; to Ruby about when LHO was coming out?!

Oswald was the last time anyone bothered with a cover story, since they discovered that confusion works just as well. In your face!

Ruby didn't do it by choice. Ted Cruze's dad made him do it. Trump** saw him force Ruby to do it from his penthouse apartment in Manhattan.

The conspirators knew that Oswald would talk once he realized he was the scapegoat.
@Tautriadelta He was
a killing machine with a 5 dollar rifle.
Your absolutely right, actually Lee didn't shoot anyone he was the PATSY and he figured it out at the Police department when he was heard saying so I'm the PATSY.
The cover up was so absurdly clumsy, yet so unrelentingly persistentant by the state perps that try to insult the public buy trying to bully them into believing it.
Stevefish-But he had two days to do exactly that- and he didn't.He could have blurted it out to the press on several occasions, but he didn't. More likely he was smart enough to know that they didnt have a strong case against him in court, so he went with the line that he had nothing to do with any of it.
"He was a loser"
Abusers do the same thing to discredit their victims so their malfeasance goes undetected.
was gonna mention same thing.
@@fenwan2405 "Show me Trump and I'll show you a big loser."
Abrams calling Ruby a loser is him grooming the American public into not believing in an elaborate coup plot existed.
Why was Jack Ruby at the press conference the day after the JFK assassination (and even made an audible correction to one of the answers)?
Why was Jack Ruby seen at Parkland Hospital?
What if the Dallas police was waiting for Ruby to arrive before escorting Oswald? In other words, instead of being "an hour late"... perhaps they were waiting on him to arrive. Which begs the question: why was Oswald being subjected to the public in the first place? They should have never exposed him.
Jack Ruby was well-known to the Dallas police. Many of them were patrons of Ruby's Carousel club. It makes no sense that Ruby could wander into Dallas police headquarters just before Oswald, who should have been the most tightly-guarded man on earth that day, is led toward him, then move toward Oswald and, without any interference from any of the cops present, shoot Oswald from a few feet away. There is a video on UA-cam of Ruby talking to reporters shortly after killing Oswald. He plainly alludes to the fact that there was a conspiracy and says the "true facts" of what went on in Dallas will never come above board to the world, and that "people that had so much to gain" were responsible for "putting me in the position I'm in."
Night Club Owner? It was a Strip joint. Half of the Dallas Police drank for free at the Carousel club. Ruby was also the man who was able to spring Trafficante from a Cuban Jail. Mob connections? Absolutely. Cancer? He got treated for a cold and Dr. Jolly declared he was insane. and a couple of weeks later he was dead. (Keep in mind that Dr. Jolly was known for overdosing a giant elephant with LSDF who died in his care.
Not in control . He had a gun and loaded it and shot Oswald and he didn't shoot anyone but Oswald point blank. BS.
Okay. So he should have got convicted, which he did, which is why he died in jail.
Without Jack Ruby you could almost believe Oswald worked alone.
Does anyone still believe the Warren Commission coverup? Allen Dulles was one of the main participants, and he had violent disagreements with JFK. In most murder investigations it is considered improper to have mortal enemies of the victim to be a primary investigator. Hint: the 1978 report from the House Select Committee on Assassinations admitted that there were multiple gunmen.
No I can't - it was the Dixiecrat/Republicans
@@guynorth3277 well, TX w a s where they picked...
The thing about almost all the conspiracy theroist go by is that stupid JFK movie, man thats hollywood its to make a gripping suspenseful movie that sells tickets nothing more.
No...The SBT and headshot from the rear are politely...garbage.
Jack Ruby died an innocent man?
Anytime you die before your appeal, you are "not guilty." Google Aaron Hernandez. His estate was able to sue the NFL for the balance of his contract because he died before his appeal. He was deemed innocent.
His conviction and death sentence were overturned and he died of a pulmonary embolism before he could be retried
Earl Warren refused to hear Ruby tell of the coup. He would not allow him to leave Dallas to testify. They spent millions on the cover up though.
Only the good (Kennedy) die young. No one who was alive in 1963 doesn't remember this. This was the beginning of our disillusionment in government.
I was alive then. He wasn't a very good president. It was his fault we lost so many young men in Vietnam. He really mishandled the Bay of Pigs, and the Russian Missile Crisis. He cozied up to the mob, which is not surprising considering the source of his family's wealth. His sexual misbehavior makes Bill Clinton look like a monk. Dying young allowed his legacy to remain untarnished. The fact this extremely flawed man had been elected, had already disillusioned many.
Belli? Even as a teenage kid, before this event, I remember the “sentiment” of my parents as feeling uncomfortable with this “new insanity defense”. Just asking, what is the American sentiment now vs back then? Also remember Belli as full of himself.
it want insanity defense it was a seizure caused it others said he should have proclaimed it was temporary insanity
Another topic a certain kid I know is passionate about. He has studied every detail available out there.
You have an "old soul" in your buddy...I'm 50+years and those kids are interesting to be around...you never know what they will talk about. Often they are more aware of the bigger picture and what complicates the problem. Positive vibes from New Hampshire and remember to be kind to each other and yourself during this pandemic and social
How did Ruby even get that close to shoot Oswald. It was a set up. Camera man just happens to be there . How did Ruby get in that building?
Ruby was a member of organized crime and a strip club and night club owner who had a network of corrupt police who he paid off regularly. it was really easy to get in that building and really easy to shoot Oswald.
He was not an avenger, he just took out what needed done for those guys in that "thing of theirs"
Jack Ruby did assassinate him. He completed the job for the bosses. Ruby's sister said he did not care about JFK or Jackie. Why did the police have such poor security? He also killed someone who was a suspect not convicted. He may have killed an innocent man. Either way it was murder.
@@msw8839 Yes if yer ignorant enough or dishonest enough to believe Oswald Acted Alone...then you could probably swallow Ruby's super lame explanation that he wanted to spare Jackie a trial.
Or Jack Ruby had some inside information that Oswald would be moved at a later time. That's more plausible than dumb luck lol. We are all guessing, just say that you're guessing buddy.
I was 18 and watched in horror......
I was 19.
What was ruby doing at the Oswald press conference a couple days before? There it turned out were too many ppl on the scene at that time but he was there for a reason.
I wonder if Dorothy Kilgallen’s story is part this?
Where exactly was Curtis LeMay on 11/22/63?
very interesting, l may need to read this.
The Kennedy assassinations were so tragic and changed the course of our country.
These people are creepy. Why are they doing this? The jurors already rejected Ruby's ridiculous story about how much he loved the Kennedys and wanted to spare Jackie. He didn't go to see them in the motorcade. Instead, he went and placed a news ad that he placed every week. Nothing special. Dan Abrams should just stay out of it. It's all been said before.
Interesting. I didn't realize Ruby claimed to be unaware of what he was doing, same as Sirhan Sirhan. Combine that with the work of Derren Brown and his work to program an assassin that could be triggered in the same way Sirhan claims he was, and that's really quite interesting.
*shocked face *
Also interesting that after seeing a court appointed dr, he literally went insane. Just drs name is Louis jaylon west. Who was heavily involved in mk ultra.
@@_D_E_N_N_I_S_ I just checked around, including an Intercept article on West and Gottlieb; had forgotten most of it from decades ago. Thanks for the reminder. One needs to have studied a good deal to know which claims are fact-based and which are fabrications. West, a retired army colonel, seems to have believed he was serving his country against the rising East even while destroying some of the subjects of his "research". The blind leading the blind. I had hoped the world had changed, had grown, but Guantanamo Bay suggests otherwise.
His laeyer Melvin Belli told him to tell that story. I think if he stuck with Tom shown here he might have done better.
Watch this shooting in slow motion, it’s on here , Oswald catches a glimpse of ruby in this crowd like when you see someone you know, theres enough time to jerk , not one of the handcuffed police looked, it sticks out in slow motion
Louis Joyland West, the psychiatrist, ya know, that worked for CIA, that visited Ruby in isolation, where’s his part in this story, and how he was one of the prominent doctors, involved in the MKULTRA.
The entertainer friend of Ruby visiting hin in prison said Ruby complained of Jolly West injecting him in prison. The previous prison doc said Ruby was fine when he attended to Ruby. West forced his way in there by constantly pressing the authority to be his doc.
@@meisievannancy Indeed!
NO! He want to that police station with a gun and waited and planned the murder.
Mr. Ruby always carried a gun and he was a regular at the Dallas Police station.
If, as am I, you are old enough to remember those days, you have picked your favorite conspiracy theory and, as with I, are prepared to die believing it.
Im willing to bet Dorothy Kilgallen knew the truth.

Also Lee Harvey Oswald: "WhaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"
Can't wait to read this book!
A much better book: JFK and the Unspeakable: Why he died and why it matters by James Douglass.
I wouldn't bother. Him calling Ruby a loser is not an objective writer. Obviously an apoligist who wants you to think there is nothing to see here.
Dan Abrams makes poor argument. Ruby planned to shoot Oswald and came there with a gun and a plan. It wasn't "heat of the moment". Interesting what happened to Ruby during incarceration. He was a changed man.
Abrams calling Ruby a *loser* is not objective. Obviously an apoligist trying to make you believe there is nothing further to see here.
People there that saw it were ignored.
Oswald was buried a 1/2 mile from my childhood home in Fort Worth and the cemetery was shrouded in mystery and intrigue because of it. Well, that and the gypsy’s whose families would leave food and other oddities on their graves and have usual ‘gatherings,’ there.
Oswald went to Arlington Heights High School in ft worth texas...and Mark David Chapman the man who shot john lennon is from ft. Worth.
Ruby (Jacob Rubenstein) was a labor racketeer who served the Chicago Outfit. The outfit felt betrayed by Kennedy. The idea that he had affection for the Kennedy is preposterous.He was the bag man for Carlos Marcello. His job was to pay off Dallas coppers. He was well known at the Dallas police station. The timing business proves nothing. He may have had the wrong time for Oswalds transfer. He may have been recruited after officer Tibbet failed to silence Oswald.
I will never forget those days.
He was going to tell the truth. That why he didn’t show up for the second trial.
it would be kinda obvious that Lee Harvey Oswald had things to say , but Jack Ruby did not want to hear it. i would also assume Jack Ruby was not a virgin.
Back then during that time is when the justice system actually believed in quick and speedy trials unlike today to where you can have an upper crust criminal stay out on bail for a number of years.
This is funny, he ask Gerald Ford that he would tell more if they would move him out of Dallas jail.
As proof that Jack Ruby's killing Oswald was by mere chance, Abrams states that Oswald was suppose to have been moved from Dallas police headquarters to county lock-up at 10:00 am and that Ruby finally showed up at the police station at 11:15. So, why wasn't Oswald moved at 10:00 am? It appears as though they were waiting for Ruby - who arrived late. As coincidence would have it: Ruby, who had just finished running errands, showed up at Dallas PD at exactly the right time and found himself in the police underground parking structure right on Que. and in the presence of about 70 officers and detectives - murdered Oswald.
Also, Abrams said that Ruby's dog was in his car. Why would he bring his dog and leave it in the car if he was going to murder Oswald and probably get arrested?
Perhaps Jack Ruby, not being a particularly bright man, knowing he would be arrested, thought his dog would starve to death before someone found it. I think an argument can be made that: BECAUSE Ruby brought his dog, he knew he would not be back home to take care of the dog. In other words: Ruby knew he was about to be arrested, so he brought his dog to pass off to Dallas PD to deal with. After he was arrested he probably handed over his car keys and let the officers know the dog was in the car. Beloved dog Sheeba: taken care of.
My point is if oswald was to be moved at 10 00 why would ruby even show up later if he wasnt told about the time change. Even a low iq person knows this
@@samuelmoore3817 11.15 was the time Ruby was told to be there.10 am was the time you and I were told to be there.
These people are all from the same school of thought and together, they play the American people like puppets on a string. . . . and now you know -
I don't think Oswald did it, he was set up and even said as much....
And then he's gunned down in a jail transfer, before he can testify or be tried? Please.
Who was that second shooter though?
I haven't liked Texas since the Kennedy assassination - recent events only serve to reinforce that
opinion. IMO, Jack Ruby was given the death penalty bc the TX authorities wanted to be able to crucify Oswald as a quasi-apology to the country, for letting such a thing happen on their turf. Loser or not, Ruby sure managed to put a big nail in the TX ego-centric image.

Ruby a fan of John Kennedy? Come on Ruby was Italian. He shot Oswald to shut him up.
Jacob Rubenstein was Jewish, not Italian.
Jews aren’t Catholic.
I'm pretty sure that Oswald, Ruby and Tippit knew each other, as in seen drinking together someplace, check it out.
Oswald was framed, look into paraffin tests, mainly his face. You squeeze off 3 shots with a bolt action rifle there'd be gunpowder residue on your face. Oswald had none, he was eating lunch with his boss in break room during assassination, look into it.
Actually the "fugue state" was the state of Oswald after being arrested after shooting a cop.. .. let's at least get out crazy right .
Maybe they were waiting for ruby to bring Oswald out ? Duh
Ruby knew everyone
So he was like trump, without his dad's money
Ruby knew Oswald. End of story.
What was there to deliberate by the jury for 2hrs? Jack Ruby did it live on TV with half the country watching. That'd be like a jury deliberation on if planes hit the World Trade Center towers or not 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Jack Ruby was not a loser, as a boy he worked for Al Capone in Chicago as an errand boy. This journalists keep telling stories that there was no conspiracy to assassinated JFK, people are sick of it.
Ruby was not an avenger but a silencer.
Loser became Ruby's epithet over the decades, but nobody justifies it. Despite the failure of a string of night clubs, so few have the know how and resources for such undertakings, it's an accomplishment in itself. Ruby apparently made a living from his strip clubs; how is he a loser? The characterization of Ruby may have originated from the strippers he employed, women who commonly rationalize that it's the men who pay to see their public nudity who are the losers. Because he threw his life away in such a manner doesn't mean he led the life of a loser.
The implication is that killing Oswald was his attempt at redemption for a failed life. Maybe. Why him though? There are billions of losers who don't resort to such histrionics.
