JFK's Assassination

Although Lee Harvey Oswald was charged with the murder of President Kennedy, his case never came to trial since, two days later, Oswald was shot dead. Before that, he always denied having shot anyone. Later, a special commission concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone when he assassinated Kennedy.

What's your opinion on this event? Why would a single person decide to kill the president of a nation? Do you think he acted alone? I look forward to reading your comments. JMC.

The Civil War

Some people state that Abraham Lincoln, as the president of the nation, should have impeded a conflict and looked for other ways of conciliation. Likewise, it is claimed that slavery would have eventually ended and that, for this reason, a four-year war was unnecessary. On the other hand, others agree on the fact that war was inevitable since it was the only way to liberate slaves and reach equality. What is your opinion? Did he make the right decision? Do you think that if civil war had not taken place, slavery would not have disappeared?
