Is This A Good Thesis Statment? Help Please!?

Do you believe the government, who said that a lone assassination, Lee Harvey Oswald, a man who was know to have a bad shoot on a rifle, was able to shoot a moving target three times, two of them hitting the President, in under six seconds? I think not.

Please tell me what you think of it, and/or any corrections that you would make.

THANKS!

That seems like it would be more of an attention getter for a paper. A thesis statement for that would say something like “Lee Harvey Oswald could not have been the President’s assasin because…” and then you would list 3 reasons that support your opinion. A thesis statement should not be a question.
