In the Zapruder film JFK goes behind a sign at which time the Lone Nut
Theorists claim a single shot was fired that went through the body of
JFK and caused all of the wounds in JBC. This same bullet it is claimed
broke a rib and shattered a dense wrist bone in JBC without any impact
deformity to the nose or the back end of the bullet.

At Zapruder frame Z200, JFK is seen bolt upright going behind the sign.
At Zapruder frame Z225, JFK is seen emerging from behind the sign again
bolt upright. Dr. Baden says that the wound in JFK's back was lower on
the body than the wound in the throat at JFK's front. The hole in the
back of JFK's tailor fitting shirt was 5 and 3/4 inches below the top of
the collar. The ripped looking hole in the front of the shirt was at
the top button hole. LNTers claim a bullet exited here. Conspiracy
Theorists claim this rip was made by medical personnel at Parkland
Hospital and that the same personnel said that the bullet wound in the
neck was just above JFK's tie knot.

Baden claims that the bullet from the TSBD sixth floor was on a downward
course and that if JFK leaned forward enough then the lower back wound
could rise above the front neck wound enough to agree with this downward
trajectory.

LNTers are not even suspicious that the bullet CE399 does not even
appear to be damaged. They are not even suspicious that JFK would have
to lean forward significantly and then back upright in about a second's
time while behind the sign and out of our view for the Single Bullet
Theory to be even remotely possible. Now what is really suspicious is
their claim to believe that the SBT really happened.

Only at the time of autopsy if you imagine a perfectly anatomically
neutral position. At the time of the shot the back wound was slightly
higher than the throat wound.

Charles, you do remember that the bullet is bent along its long axis,
flattened on one side and the base is flattened, too....right?

Uh, yeah...because sitting "bolt upright" and lying unconscious on your
back wouldn't change the position of a collar...right?

Yeah, Baden was wrong. They didn't need to do that. I don't know if they
bothered to look at a lateral x-ray before analyzing that.

I think he did what the rest of the planet seems to do...look at the
bullet hole's position relative to the shoulder/trapezius...which
moves...and is obviously elevated if you look at the AP x-ray.

No, that's the Baden misdirection. It doesn't work. We all know that. He
made a mistake. Usually CT's are very good at pointing out LN's
mistakes...unless you think they support you...then they don't.

The point is pristine and the base is slightly compressed with little
protrusion of the lead core.

Chad, so it only hit the body or bone on its side?

Did any doctor comment on the size of the bullet's channel inside JBC's
chest?

Does the latter, if known, correspond to the size of the bullet's exit
wound out of JBC's chest?

It most certainly does. JFK was hidden (for the most part) by the sign
when shot at Z224 (or Z223.5 if you prefer). .....

If CE 399 got slightly flattened by hitting JBC's rib sideways, how did
it in a half of an inch distance turn 90 degrees and make a nice round

If you look at Tomnin's last post he included a photograph of what looks
to be like a neat round hole in JBC's jacket about the size of the
bullet in question.

Okay, what is the exact qoute from Baden that makes you think that he
didn't use words that would lead a reader to believe that the back wound
was lower than the front neck wound?

Gerry, I'd think that you would've been here long enough to not actually
think that.

Bullets only deform when hitting objects of varying densities at specific
speeds, just like paper only tears when it is pulled with enough force. If
a bullet hits a bone at the correct speed, it will not deform but the bone
will break. If it exceeds that speed, it will deform. The speed at which
it deforms varies based upon how the bullet hit.

So the glancing blow was enough to flatten CE 399 and totally destroy a
4 inch section of JBC's rib. This is kind of like JFK being hit in the
back of the neck but it was below the shoulders because JFK had an
unusual body with high shoulders, right?

And also the angle at which it hits. You can fire a bullet perpendicular
to a rock and it will break up. But the same shot will simply ricochet
intact if it hits at a shallow angle. Also, the density of the object is
important. A bullet going through soft tissue will not be deflected much
if at all. A bullet hitting dense material like metal or bone will be
deflected.

I know there was like a 2 inch diameter exit hole in JBC's chest where
the rib pieces came out.

I thought your theory was that the bullet that hit JFK in the back
nicked a bone in the spinal column which deflected it UPWARD and out his
throat. And this upward path allowed the bullet to go above the
windshield and be lost. You've decided to go over to the dark side?

How can I not think that?

The WCR says it exited JFK at a speed of 1771 to 1779 fps, enough to go
thru the windshield or tear a whole thru the chrome.

Therefore, it was going fast enough to flatten at the bottom end and later
leave fragments in Connally's wrist too, so it only hit him on its side or
the bottom because if the front point hit either the rib or the wrist, you
must have deformation or metal loss, but we don't see it this.

BTW, when you say 'bent along its long axis', do you mean just flattened
or actually bent from the vertical axis (not 90 degrees pointing up if you
can stand the bullet on its end on a very flat surface).

Tom,

The bullet hit the lateral portion of the rib. The deposition of the
kinetic energy to the rib caused it to fracture. The linear length of the
fracture doesn't describe the type of impact. Ribs are not very dense
bones and are quite commonly fractured, thus you are probably making too
hazardous an inference by looking at the length of the fracturing.

Yeah, in fact that's EXACTLY what happened when a test bullet glanced a
goat rib. I saw the x-ray at the National Archives. It most closely
resembled JBC's rib. However, that bullet was traveling faster and thus it
deformed more readily due to its velocity, which is the key to
understanding the deformation.

This is kind of like JFK being hit in the

"Unusual build"? No, he had quite a common build. I see it quite often in
the clinic where peoples shoulders are elevated in their posture. However,
as you must also remember, JFK was going through rigor mortis at the time
of autopsy, which causes muscular contraction. His AP x-ray of the chest
clearly shows the elevation of his shoulders.

Can you look at that x-ray and tell me if his shoulders were at the
normal, neutral anatomical level?

No, you can't. So why use them as an indicator of where the bullet was
relative to the spine?

Right, so it was slightly turned so the middle and lower portions deformed.

It was actually slightly bent along its long axis, which can be seen with
photographs taken at the proper angle. IOW, the center of the tip was not
directly above the center of the base. However, this was very slight.

Who refuted the WCR with respect to the speed of the bullet out of JFK?

So then you'll agree that it always ended hitting things on its side or
base to deform or leave metal behind.

My apologies. You're right about your LNT's SBT and JFK being hit behind
the sign

But I have a problem with that because:

1. JFK reacts instantaneously to a non-fatal wound whereas Connally
doesn't react to his fatal wound that breaks a rib.

2. Before the lapel flips, Jackie notices JFK's already hit in Z
223....how can that be? She looks at him the same way in Z224.

3. There are other reasons why I think JFK's hit before Z224.

You may be right but I'm assuming it for the sake of the discussion.

To comment though on it, if the bullet exits low in the jacket away from
the lapel, remember that it's on a right to left trajectory. Does that
mean that it would 'pull' the jacket over to the left momentarily? Is
that what we actually see? I believe Robert Harris commented in the NG
that we also see the JBC's tie 'blow' to the left if I'm not mistaken.

Sometimes I wonder if that 'lapel flip' is nothing but JBC's arm coming up
or other body movement.

Ok, then ignore the X-ray, despite the fact that it was taken before the
autopsy began and thus only a few hours after the shooting and too soon
for rigor to take effect. Look at the autopsy photos. No amount of
manipulation of the body can change the bullet wound from being BELOW the
top of the shoulders as we can see for ourselves, to ABOVE the top of the
shoulders as WC defenders place it.

No, it wasn't. I've posted this before and it was noted at autopsy. Rigor
can certainly be well in progress within just a few hours.

What time was he shot? 12:30. What time did the autopsy begin? A few hours
later....3:00pm? Or several hours later?

The onset is largely due to the surrounding temperature. Do you think he
was on ice?

As I've said before and you've appreciably truncated, IN THE PHOTO, the
wound is below the shoulders. HOWEVER, the shoulders are elevated. You
think the bullet hit in the same area that I do, so stop trying to make
others think that you actually have an argument here. You're just popping
in as usual to moan about something that need not be moaned about.

No. If it hit something with the tip at a velocity BELOW that which is
needed to deform it, then it could've hit something that way.

I have looked at thousands of photos of President Kennedy and in none of
them is the location of the hole on his coat ABOVE the top of his
shoulders. It is physically impossible to get it up that high. And I will
cite your reply as indicating that you really do think the entrance wound
was ABOVE the top of his shoulders.

Ice prevents the onset of rigor mortis?

No, you along with Boswell falsely claim that the wound was ABOVE the top
of the shoulders. The rest of us can see that the wound was BELOW the top
of the shoulders.

like to discuss something specific, or one of my points, I'd be happy to

Tony, why don't you Google up just how many times that I have stated that
his shoulders are above the entry wound in that picture? I've said it
numerous times. You either ignore it or simply like to provide arguments
that are disingenuous.

His coat was bunched. Not every bunch is the same.

Glad to know you have x-ray vision.

It doesn't matter how many times you change your story, you just said
that the entrance wound was above the top of his shoulders. Deal with it.

> His coat was bunched. Not every bunch is the same.

You can't even show me ANY bunch at the moment he was shot. This comes
only from your imagination in a desperate attempt to move the wound up,
to allow for a SBT. Because you are smart enough to realize that if
there is no SBT, it spells conspiracy.

You never bother to read what you cite.

Maximum stiffness is reached around 12-24 hours post mortem. Facial
muscles are affected first, with the rigor then spreading to other parts
of the body. The joints are stiff for 1-3 days, but after this time
general tissue decay and leaking of lysosomal intracellular digestive
enzymes will cause the muscles to relax.

2 PM to 7 PM is only 5 hours, not 12.

I can, if you'd properly attribute my comments, which you absolutely
refuse to do because you have some moronic complaint with who I think was
responsible for shooting JFK. YOU think that was his NORMAL posture, but
have only your redudant opinions from looking at pictures of him. You
don't have x-ray vision, so you don't really know how much of the
elevation seen in the photograph is natural or artificially produced via
rigor mortis- which was noted at autopsy and fits the physical parameters
of that process. You'd much rather simply disagree with me and twist the
words. You have a pointless agenda in this NG, which is to try and insult
or argue with anyone that doesn't think you're right.

No kidding, nor can you utilize x-ray and see where his shoulders normally
were relative to the spine.

This comes

Idiocy.

I actually think it is probably a combination of rigor and his normal
position. You think it was just his normal position. Fine. Care to bitch
