Johnson was a snake. My first thought at the time was that he was involved in the plan.

I was seven years old on the day JFK was assassinated.

We lived in Brownwood Texas then and I'll never forget that day.

Because that was the day that it seemed like everyone in town was crying.

And I mean everyone, young and old, the B****s, the W****s, the Hispanics we're all crying.

I was in first grade but we left school early that day because all the teachers and even the colored and Hispanic workers were all crying....non stop crying.

So they dismissed us after telling us that our president had been assassinated.

When they first said the word assassinated, many of the kids asked what it meant.

And though I was not familiar with that word at seven years old, when they said it, I knew exactly what they meant.

I got home and my parents were crying and we started crying as they explained to us the details of that horrible day.

I learned to love my country that day.

Because I saw love being displayed in a most poignant manner that day among the people of that wonderful little country town in Texas.

Wonderful post, Wolf. Thanks. I am a year older than you, and also lived in South Texas. I remember things being just as you described them. Sad memories of the loss of America's last great Democrat. Sadly, his death ushered in the first of the wickedly liberal democrats. I have always been convinced that LBJ was actually born in Boston. He clearly wasn't a real Texan.

LBJ was the snake who really started the ball rolling downhill.

I was in class, and one of the nuns came into my classroom to announce that JFK had been shot. I got home in time to see Cronkite anounce that the president was dead. I always wonder if we would have suffered from the Vietnam quagmire if he lived. Or if we would have gotten medicare for all.

I was in Hilo, Hawaii. I was downtown and had gone into a shop. The owner came out to wait on me and said she thought the radio had announced that the President had been shot. We listened to J. Aku-head Pupuli, a disk jockey from Honolulu,, who had a large budget to call all over the world for news or to chat with someone who might be of interest in Hawaii. He had called Dallas, Texas to ask about the Presidents visit. The person on the telephone asked him to hang up as the President had just been shot. Those listening in Hawaii were among the first to know because of J. Aku-head’s telephone call.

Sorry, Mr Wolf...It happened a year before I was born...Actually less than 2 months...But I have learned about it in American high school...🥺


You would have been impressed! He was working on the US to print our own money, he was working to end the war in Viet Nam, and he was working on dismantling the CIA - all of which he was assassinated for! He was working for the people!! Look for his speech, warning Americans about the secrecy ( today the deep state) in our country that he called 'repugnant'!!

I was at work and we were in a conference when the secretary came in and told us that Kennedy had been assassinated. We were stunned, in shock - we just looked at each other in disbelief. Then we went into the secretary's office and listened to the radio. When it was announced again, the boss sent everyone home. My world became surreal and I don't remember much after that.

As a sophomore in high school, I walked into my World Geography class to hear the news from Mr. Penny. Most of the girls cried and the guys just seemed to be a bit shocked.....
