In all seriousness, and meaning no disrespect, have you researched the Kennedy assassination and come away with the impression there was no conspiracy?

Because I didn't even think it was particularly controversial that the official story is bunk. Making no more assumptions about the circumstances of his death (ie, who or how), a conspiracy would be required to produce an official explanation that was lean of some inconvenient facts. But I'm always in the market for convincing evidence that I'm wrong.

Yeah I've been quite interested in it an other conspiracy theories, like the 9/11 conspiracy theory (also bunk) etc.

Most of what these conspiracy theories consist of is just anomaly hunting, you take a really complex event and try to find any sort of unusual things, which of course you're going to find since it's a big & complex event.

Check out this interview (around 40m) in [1] with Gerald Posner, the author of Case Closed[2] (a non-conspiracy Kennedy assassination book) for a good start down the rabbit hole of non-conspiracy coverage of the Kennedy assassination.
