There is another fiftieth anniversary going on. And yesterday, some people in comics remembered that.

Wait, he dies? Thanks for spoiling JFK for me, guys.

If we ever do find out more about who was behind the JFK assassination, I bet the answer will be banal. A let down.

I was in the fifth grade when JFK was killed. It's not history to me, it's memory: as strange, frightening and sad now as it was then.

It's reasonable to think Oswald didn't act alone but every time I hear someone talk JFK conspiracy theories, they sound like a nut 2 min in.

Aw man, just realized: someone should have made a Twitter bot that replies to every "JFK" tweet with "Back… and to the left." Over & over.

Seeing as it's the 50th anniversery of both Who and the JFK assassination, I want a conspiracy theory linking them.

With it being the 50th anniversary of the JFK shooting and the 50th anniversary of DOCTOR WHO, shouldn't there be a crossover episode?

Was not born when JFK was assassinated. My "remember where I was moments" are Reagan shot, Game 6 of '86 World Series, Challenger, 9/11.

It's kind of crazy that JFK was killed and then the very next day Doctor Who debuted on TV.

RT @pattonoswalt Friday is the 50th anniversary of the deaths of JFK, Aldous Huxley & C.S. Lewis, all of whom died inside an 8 hour span

I thought I had seen this footage enough. Now reformatted it packs a more powerful [and depressing] shock to viewer. http://t.co/kfQapvzBhG

My mother-in-law saw JFK give a speech from the first row or two, thanks to connections with Irish unions and, uh, "businessmen."
