That situation might have existed in a few (shorter) motorcades when a FREEWAY EXCURSION was not being planned, but in DALLAS, it's highly doubtful the SS would have assigned any agents to specifically RUN & RIDE THE BUMPERS because they knew the agents would then have to ride the bumpers/handholds during a higher-speed drive on Stemmons Freeway. That would probably not be permitted (or scheduled).
Tut tut tut, David. The question I asked was WHY DID YOU LIE ABOUT THIS?
I'm not interested in hearing you try to justify the lie.
You made the claim that the agents would have needed to jog through the whole parade... THAT'S SIMPLY NOT TRUE - AND YOU **KNOW** IT'S NOT TRUE.
Now, either retract your lie, or go right on lying...
> Plus, as we know via the various 1964 SS reports, JFK didn't like it when agents constantly rode on those bumpers, so such scheduling of two extra "Run & Ride" agents would most certainly not have been done as late as Nov. 22, 1963, which was after Kennedy made his feelings pretty clear in Tampa just 4 days earlier about agents riding on the back of his limo.*
You're lying again, David.

There's an excellent reason to label it a lie.
Red or Green?
