He got JR, too? He was one bad dude.
Nearly as good as 'name a bird with a long neck' answer Naomi Campbell!!
-- answer removed --
Youngsters...Lol. JR was shot quite a long time ago :-)
^ very true, JR was shot round 1980 so even if you were 10 when you watched it you'd be 45 now.
And JFK was shot more than 50 years ago. How many who had been about then would know much about the assassination of another President, McKinney, some 60 years earlier?

I don't think McKinney formed any part of the question?
He didn't. Just saying...

Ah, ok, I just thought it seemed rather pointless!
^ not quite, 2 people had heard of him :-)

;o)
6 Sep 1901 - Buffalo
I thought everyone knew that

I cant find the photo of him mounting the steps of the Temple of music seconds before he was shot

Randolph Hearst's organs ( newspapers actually ) castigated him for heing the capitalists' darling so that it was feared that the anarchists who read the papers ( !!) would try to assassinate himi
( and they did )

Hey talking about pointless things
did anyone see Dicko's Deal and the documents on the massacre at Wormhout ?

They were clearly clueless about that
Evil deed done by SS ( Adolf Htiler liebstandard regiment ) the same folks that brought you the massacre at Malmedy in 1944 - and it was successfullly pleaded that all those at Wormhout had died at Stalingrad.

AND .... piper who was convicted over Malmedy ( 1946) was later acquitted on the grounds thar the German interrogators the Americans had retained had beaten the confessions out of them. ( Amercans were in no way able to resist the appeal oops ! )

and Yes ! no one on Dicko's Deal knew that !
i'm barely old enough to remember JFK - or the episode of doctor who that was screened on the same day.

so I don't remember who was assassinated in 1901; the only mckinney i remember had a predilection for mormon boys and beds with chains attached.

^^^ ???

That ^^^ ??? was @ PP
A collection of papers turn up that's worth nearly a grand. It would have put a damper on things if it had been revealed that American mistreatment of prisoners had allowed a murderer to walk free.
Sometimes it seems best not to delve too deep.

You really didn't need to clarify that. :-)
Mushroom25, I still remember that particular McKInney's picture on the front of the News of the World. She was a well rounded young woman.
William McKinley was 25th president.
I saw the Pointless gaffe thought it was hilarious !
