What's the world coming to?Hey, I've got a question for you:Do you think Sirhan was firing blanks? Or was he to aim at the ceiling or something? The reason I ask is that it seems it would be awful risky for the real killer (most likely Caesar), who could very likely be hit if Sirhan was actually trying to hit RFK with real bullets. Just wondering what the plan might have been.

Just wondering what the plan might have been.I would say it's a possibility, but not likely. With 13 bullets being fired (or even just 10), there has to be at least two gunmen. That is the risk Cesar took when he became part of this conspiracy, as a number of people who were wounded were near Cesar's vicinity. Plus, you have Michael's theory of a Sirhan double of being the actual assassin of RFK. Either way, Cesar was involved. I would like to hear Michael's take on all this.

Either way, no chance that Sirhan fired 10-13 bullets especially having Rosey Grier pounced on you. I wonder if Michael has any update on Cesar still living in the Philippines.

I think blanks are very possible. I remember as child when RFK was assassinated. I was up late because we were out of school. I honestly knew more about Rosie Greer, then RFK at the time, and was worried about him. My house like many houses in the area had the lights on late into the night.I became more interested and informed about RFK after reading about the JFK assassination. It does seem like many aspects are similar with other assassination attempts, especially the diversion tactic.

The reason I feel Sirhan probably had live rounds was because the people that were wounded had wounds that came from Sirhan's direction. Unlike the fatal RFK head wound that came from point blank range and from behind the Senator. Right where Cesar and the Sirhan double were.

I would tell him that Sirhan's gun would have blanks, just in case. Now whether it had blanks is another question.

Yow! Now you've got a conspiracy, and that is going to be a hell of a lot harder to explain, isn't it? Were the conspirators ready for this? Were others intentionally shot to create further chaos and diversions? Just wondering....

Thom,Of course my thoughts are just conjecture really. What I do not believe is conjecture anymore is that there were more people involved then Sirhan. I am sure Caesar and a possible double were involved, which means there were more involved in the planning and execution. History kind of teaches at this point that the Powers that are lose little sleep over bystanders being shot or killed, as long as the lone nut scenario can be sold to the general public.I think the work by Phil Van Praag convinced me a few years back. To many shots fired for one gun, and of course the directions of the shots do not line up with Sirhan. Kirk
