Bill Barry.
Bill Barry, who grabbed Robert F. Kennedy’s assassin’s gun and prevented many other deaths on that fateful night in 1968, passed away on October 9, at age 91 in his New York suburban home.
To the end of his life, Bill unfairly blamed himself for what happened to Robert F. Kennedy on the dreadful night of June 5th, 1968, at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles.
Back then, presidential candidates had no secret service protection and former NYPD and FBI Agent Bill Barry was the only bodyguard for the Senator.
The crowd at the Ambassador that night was hugely excited. Kennedy had just won California and the Democratic race against Hubert Humphrey was suddenly neck and neck.

The newly formed Irish Lobby for Immigration Reform (ILIR) is galvanizing support for the undocumented as it plans an all-out effort on the critical issue of immigration reform.
The lobby group created by The Irish Voice newspaper will advocate on behalf of the estimated twenty to thirty thousand undocumented Irish living in the U.S.
“We don’t want to be in the shadows,” said Malcolm, an undocumented immigrant from Northern Ireland, who was one of the many who turned up for the inaugural meeting of the lobby, which was held at the Affinia Hotel, in Manhattan on December 9.
David Rockefeller, Warren Buffett, George Soros, Ted Turner, Oprah Winfrey and many more.
“The fact that they pulled this off, meeting in the middle of New York City, is just absolutely amazing,” said Niall O’Dowd, an Irish journalist who broke the story on the website irishcentral.com.”
According to media reports, “The Good Club” focus was on the philanthropic mandate of the billionaires, using their money in support of poverty alleviation and “overpopulation”.
It is important to note that the Good Club meeting in NYC was held at the height of the
H1N1 swine flu pandemic which turned out to be a scam. No doubt, the H1N1 pandemic was an object of discussion by the “Good Club”.
