99. Why would this be relevant?
a. It's probably happened. Harry Potter fans have killed people. Bambi fans have killed people.

b. Does Stone's JFK (I'm presuming you are referencing this) call on anyone, even in the most remote or indirect fashion, to kill people, or to commit acts of violence? Nope. So even if a fan kills people, and even if he says he did it because of Oliver Stone, you couldn't blame Oliver Stone. (You could blame him for Natural Born Killers, however.)

c. Would this fan's rampage change or even reflect upon the truth or untruth of any of the movie's claims, at all? Well, maybe if he was the Comedian!
