 * Umbrella Man**



** Lee Harvey Oswald: **
====Was the man caught for the assassination of the President of the United States. He's relevant in our conspiracy because he is a possible shooter that would've been signaled by the umbrella man. He was transfered to another jail because people did not believe that the jail he was at was secure enough, during the transfer he was shot and killed by a man named Jack Ruby; he somehow got in the garage no one really knows how he got in but we do know that he must of had someone on the inside to help him in. ====

** Louie Steven Witt: **
====Is the “self proclaimed” umbrella man, however there isn’t proof to show that he is truly the one umbrella man. He said he still had the umbrella and that he didn’t know he’d been a subject of controversy. He said he bought the umbrella to simply heckle the president because Kennedy’s father was a supporter of the Nazi-appeasing British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain who’s trademark was an umbrella. ====

** “Dark Complected Man”: **
====The so called “Dark Complected Man” is seen in the Zapruder film stting next to the umbrella man on the curb. At some points in time it even looks like they are talking to each other and at others, like he is on a radio/walkie-talkie, talking to someone. Just as the President was begining to pass, the dark complected man was standing facing the motorcade. Moments before the president was shot he raised his hand in the air in a fashion as if he were saluting Hitler. This is the relation the umbrella man has to the 1930's cartoon in refrence to hitler if he is truly associated with the Dark Complacted Man. ====

. ** THE AUTOPSY: **

The autopsy helps prove that the wound in the President’s neck was not from a dart because first off, no dart was recovered from the limousine or the Presidents body. And because the wound was actually reportedly created by Dr. Malcolm Perry in an attempt to resurrect him.

We believe that the umbrella man was standing in the perfect place to be seen by two separate shooters one which we thought was Oswald. When he first opened his umbrella, conspirators say that’s when the umbrella man shot the president in the throat with a dart from his umbrella because the president hunched over at this exact time. We don’t think that is practical because the CIA claims to have made 50 of such firing umbellas, so we decided that when he opened it and pumped it above his head, it was the first signal for Oswald and the other shooter to fire. This was the point in time when the first two shots rang out too close together to come from the 6.5 mm carcano rifle Oswald possessed .He then promptly began to spin the umbrella above his head as if to signal that the first shots fatal and that another one would be needed. The final shot was fired from the sixth floor window and the President fell into the arms of his wife.
 * SYNTHESIS**:

The Umbrella Man is a highly speculated man in Dealey Plaza on the day President John Fitzgerald Kennedy was assassinated, November 22, 1963. He was the only being on the scene with an umbrella on that cold cloudless day. And moments before Kennedy was shot he raised his umbrella 2 feet in the air, pumped it in the air, and began to twirl it over his head. This is the place where conspirators have different idea's of what all of this meant; some say he was signaling a shooter or shooters to take fire, others think he could've been a first hand assassin and had a dart firing umbrella that he used to shoot the president before the fatal shot was fired.

 ==== This is a cartoon from the 1930’s in reference to Neville Chamberlain’s well known “trade mark”, his umbrella he often carried. Kennedy’s father had firmly made a case of the British appeasement of Hitler. This is another speculated article of the conspiracy of the umbrella man.Does this have anything to do with the fact that this character, "Louie Steven Witt", had an umbella just like this one to "heckle" the president? ====

= __ Breaking News __ = We have found the solution to the JFK assassination. The Umbrella man was the main man in the assassination of JFK. He gave the signal to Lee Harvey Oswald and the other shooter to shoot the president. The signal was him pumping his umbrella and after he saw that the shooter had missed he started to twirl the umbrella to tell the shooters to keep shooting. We know this because after studying this assassination for decades this is the only conspiracy that would fit. Some say that the umbrella man was just a random man trying to heckle the president but what are the possibilities that he was just randomly there waving his umbrella when the president got shot. When the shooting was going on everyone was scattering and running in fear except the umbrella man so we believe that he knew it was coming and he signaled the two shooters and was the linchpin to the assassination.
