.....and the blood was still sticky for the buzzing flies.
As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
Unnatural death is not pleasant, it is disturbing, whether it is the FBI blowing the head off of Vicki Weaver while holding her baby in her home in front of her family, or Jack Kennedy having his head blown off in front of a nation.
All of you have witnessed the infamous film of the event. The reality is you saw the gruesome reality from John Kennedy's view point before he vanished. The real trauma was for those who lived on after that shot in Dallas.
The things you did not see were seen by moments the reporters glimpsed in their macabre orgy of feasting on this story. Here is what you were never shown or told about.
After the Secret Service Agent got onto the limousine and shoved Mrs. Kennedy back into the car, what took place was the Agent, one Clint Hill, shoved the Kennedy's down into the back seat of the car entirely and covered them.
This was made easy as John Kennedy was already falling toward his wife. Let us be clear in this, Jack Kennedy was dead already. We know this as his body spasmed when he was pushed down into the car, and his right foot tangled over the door. That is what people saw as the limo sped away to the Triple Overpass where Dan Rather was stationed.
The communications to the dispatcher and the police chief to Parkland Hospital were concise, they knew the President had been seriously hurt. Hill had checked him and there was nothing to be done, but allow Mrs. Kennedy to cradle the head of her husband in lap.
The President, in death, for lack of a better term was made "comfortable" in he was laid out, stomach down on the back seat of the car. To be frank, there was a tremendous amount of blood which flowed out of the head wound, dark vein blood, as is always the case with head wounds.
It was not instant in the medical help afforded to the President or Governor Connolly who had also been wounded. It took about 2 minutes for a gurney to arrive, while the Governor was laying back in the arms of his wife who was sobbing in spasms.
Jackie Kennedy cradled her husband still in her arms, shielding the head. She was bent over him, whispering.
There was an expanding blood stain over the area of his right shoulder from that wound.
Governor Connolly had to be removed first to a gurney in order to get at the President. His jacket held a growing blood pool on his torso. The President when removed had the look of a man who had been murdered.
The last details of this were that Mrs. Kennedy asssted in pushing the gurney down the hospital corridor. Blood was dripping from her hair.
All of this is most disturbing and is scarred the people there, so it was never talked about. It was never talked about how the reaction of the Secret Service and the Dallas Police were to immediately as the car was parked in the front of Parkland Hospital, that a half dozen of them by impulse began washing the car. It was the only catharsis they had, as they could do nothing for the dead man, a man they were suppposd to protect with their lives.
The focus of John Kennedy's murder has always been the instant of his murder, and then we leap to the patsy Lee Harvey Oswald, because no one wants to know the horror of this death in what people had to deal with while his body was still warm.
There are allot of people who die horribly every day in unnatural death. Natural death can be just as traumatic, but murder, war and accidents turn people into no longer looking like people, with all the fluids a human produces and everyone has to deal with this, put up a shield and try to forget it or be driven insane.
This is the history of John Fitzgerald Kennedy while the body was still warm.
This is another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
