But I wonder if Calwell's forgiveness helped turn everything around.

In America, our thinking is so very much more punitive.

And Kocan was said to have modeled his act on Oswald's. If Ozzie never did anything, then Kocan modeled his insanity on a governmentally insane creation by our leaders.

Those who see little harm in the Warren Commission should not sleep so easy at night, methinks.
