From The Education Forum (5/19/15).......
JAMES GORDON SAID:
There has been no debate on the SBT and John Connally's lapel. David Von
Pein's posts - throughout these 14 pages - have drowned [out] any chance
for fellow members discussing this issue.
DAVID VON PEIN SAID:
Huh? Why on Earth would you say such a thing, James?
How is it that my posts regarding various other issues connected with the
SBT and John Connally's reactions in the Z-Film --- which are issues that
YOU yourself have commented on repeatedly in this thread --- are
prohibiting other members from steering the conversation back to my
thread-starting title -- "John Connally's Lapel"?
Are all other Education Forum members now somehow gagged? And are they
somehow forced to keep quiet about the "lapel" even though this thread --
like all forum threads almost always do -- drifted away from the "lapel"
topic and focused more on Connally's other reactions as seen in the
Z-Film?
I'm afraid I'm forced to do another one of these (and it's almost as
noticeable as the one John Connally can be seen doing in the Zapruder
movie)....

JAMES GORDON SAID:
This thread is focusing my interest on [an] issue that - at the moment - I
do not have an answer to. The issue is this: at what point does a member's
right to post and discuss limit the rights of other members to also
discuss. Is there a point where the rights of other members override the
rights of any individual member?
DAVID VON PEIN SAID:
Time for another one of these....

JAMES GORDON SAID:
Although this thread has reached 14 pages, there has been no serious
debate on the issues. And what I do not know is where is the line between
every member having his/her right to post and the point where an
individual's right to post in [is???] limiting fellow members right to
debate and discuss. I do not have an answer to this problem at the moment.
DAVID VON PEIN SAID:
I think a better question is:
Why is James Gordon inventing a "problem" where none seems to exist at
all?
Fellow members are still free to post anything they want. (Aren't they,
Jim?)
And fellow posters can steer the debate back to ONLY the topic of "John
Connally's Lapel" if they want to. Right?
So what IS the "problem"? I see none--other than a "problem" being
manufactured by an administrator named James Gordon who seems to have a
desire to FIND some kind of "problem" with an Education Forum member he
vehemently disagrees with named David R. Von Pein.
And, btw, even though I gave this thread the title of "John Connally's
Lapel", everybody can easily see that in the thread-starting post, I talk
about a whole lot of OTHER stuff besides just the "lapel". So, in reality,
this thread HAS remained pretty much on course and on the rails when the
TOTALITY of everything I discuss in my thread-starter is taken into
account (the actual title of the thread notwithstanding).
Everyone is free to disagree with my next comment if they so desire,
but....
Based on the comments I just quoted above by James Gordon, it sounds to me
like James is trying his hardest to steer the topic back to ONLY the area
of "John Connally's Lapel" and keep the discussion AWAY from some of
Connally's other reactions seen in the Z-Film (e.g., the flinching, the
grimace, the arm raising, etc.). And the only reason I can envision James
wanting to do that is because he knows--deep down--that his posts in this
thread have been totally defeated and flattened by my counter-arguments
and various GIF clips proving that James is 100% wrong about his
interpretations concerning Governor Connally's movements in frames 224 to
227 of the Zapruder Film. (IMHO.)
