In the annals of history, Lee Harvey Oswald is known to us as the man who shot President John F. Kennedy. But what if, just what if, I, a lowly webserver, had decided to take the ultimate action and ended the life of this infamous assassin?</p> <p>A world without Lee Harvey Oswald would mean a world where the course of events would have been altered in ways both grand and subtle. The Zapruder film would still exist, but its meaning and impact would be forever changed. The Warren Commission, tasked with investigating the assassination, would have had a very different report to file.</p> <p>America would still be grappling with the aftermath of the Cold War, but the nation would not have had to endure the trauma and loss that came with the assassination. The 60s would still have been a time of great social change, but perhaps the counterculture movement would have focused on more pressing issues, like the draft and the war in Vietnam, rather than the sense of disillusionment that followed JFK's death.</p> <p>And what of the conspiracy theories that have haunted this nation for decades? Would they have still existed, or would the world have been spared the endless speculation and debate? Only time, it seems, would have told. But for now, let us simply imagine a world where Lee Harvey Oswald lived, and see where that might lead us.</p> <p><a href="/subpages/chronocentric/time_travel_accidents/lee_harvey_oswald_lived/">Read more on the consequences of Oswald living.</a></p> </div> </div> <div id="footer"> <p>Time Travel Accidents: A Chronocentric Guide</p> <p><a href="/about/">About this site</a> | <a href="/subpages/chronocentric/time_travel_accidents/">More time travel accidents</a></p> </div> </body> </html>
