The above debate has some very good stuff in it....especially these
quoted passages from Gerald Posner:


"I must tell you that, as an attorney, it {the J.D. Tippit
murder} is one of the most "open and shut" cases I've ever seen.
*Thirteen* eyewitnesses -- not just the two that he {P.D. Scott} wants
to talk about--Helen Markham and Warren Reynolds...thirteen
eyewitnesses see Oswald either do the shooting [of Tippit] or escaping
from the scene.

"Six people pick him out of a lineup that night. He's discovered
a few blocks away, with the pistol. It is tied ballistically into the
murder of Tippit, to the exclusion of any other gun in the world. How
he ends up in *that* theater, with the pistol that just killed Tippit,
where 13 people just saw him running away, is hard for me to imagine.

"Is it an imposter Oswald? Has somebody coerced all 13 people?
Did they put the pistol on him and he didn't know it? You know, the
answer is, in fact (although I see Mr. Scott nodding "yes"), it's too
much to imagine. He, in fact, *did* kill J.D. Tippit. He, in fact,
*did* shoot at General Walker. And he *was* the only person in Dallas,
{on} November 22nd, 1963, on the 6th floor, in the southeast corner of
the Texas School Book Depository -- not only with the motive to kill
Jack Kennedy (to place himself in the history books; to throw this
"monkey wrench" into the system) but with the capability of doing
it...with his *own* rifle which was found up there.

[Later....]

"After 30 years of looking at this case, we have a right to
demand of anybody, "What's your evidence to support your conclusions?"
I lay out a scenario of what I think happened in the assassination. I
presented the evidence: some 80 pages of source notes, the evidence
that I rely on.

"What I think we have to ask conspiracy theorists in this
case...is, "What do you rely on?", "What's your proof?", "What's your
documentation?" This case has been examined more extensively, by more
researchers, than any other case I know of. And after 30 years of
thousands of people looking at the evidence and talking to witnesses,
we still don't have an iota of credible evidence to show us, in fact,
there was a conspiracy to kill Jack Kennedy.

"I say that it's time to "close the book" on this case in the
sense that we still have more *historical* work to do, but we can come
to the overall conclusion that, in Dallas, as we approach the 30th
anniversary of this death, the man responsible for it was one man,
alone: Lee Harvey Oswald." -- GERALD POSNER; 1993

"I didn't shoot anybody" - Oswald

Every time I see this incredible statement, I know I'm facing a liar of massive
proportions.
