President John F. Kennedy greets supporters during his visit to Fort Worth, Texas, on Friday, November 22, 1963. This month marks 50 years since his assassination in Dallas, an event that jarred the nation and fueled a multitude of conspiracy theories about whether Kennedy was killed by a single gunman acting alone in the Texas School Book Depository. Here are some images from that fateful day as it unfolded.
Summary: Jeff Franzen was just 6 when he saw John F. Kennedy shot by an assassin. Nearly 50 years later, he recalled that fateful day. He thought the popping sound was firecrackers. Franzen speaks two days before the 50th anniversary of Kennedy's assassination.  Because he was so young at that period, he said that it was too hard to comprehend that a person is killed by others.
My opinion: I really hope the witness is a real witness that can tell what really happened clearly.

Summary: Police shot and wounded an armed man at a Milwaukee-area children's hospitals neonatal intensive care floor late Thursday morning, authorities said. The man had tried to escape police who tried to arrest him in the neonatal ICU. However, the important thing is that he had a baby. He put the baby down and he acted as if he was going to go along peacefully. However, Milwaukee Police Chief Edward Flynn said that the man continued to struggle with officers even after being shot in the arm. No one else was injured.
My opinion: I think the Police shoot because he thought it was a right thing. The Policeman needs to shoot when it is necessary.
