Yes, well, I’m sure you wasn’t “allowed” to shoot the president, either, now were you?  
You’re still on the list.

Actually I have an alibi. I once asked my mother where she was when she heard about Kennedy being shot. She told me I had had a doctor’s appointment that day and we were in the waiting room when she heard the news.

HOW did it take 60 posts to get to this?

Actually, it’s been revealed that JFK shot himself, thanks to a handy Time Paddle.

I have an alibi; I wasn’t born yet.  
(I hope they ignore my Delorean in the corner)

I am obligated to share this alternate theory:  
Of course Chuck Norris did it. He invented a time machine to go back in time and stop the Kennedy assassination. Chuck Norris was able to stop all of the bullets with his beard. Unfortunately, President Kennedy’s head exploded out of sheer amazement.
