I'm amused that John has stated this, yet cannot apply it to Posner,
Bugliosi, the WC, the HSCA, etc... all of whom made outrageously
untruthful statements about the evidence in this case.

How can you believe someone who claims that Perry & Carrico described the
original bullet wound in JFK's throat as "ragged"?

What is very clear is the Warren Commission ignored any and all evidence
which would have pointed to a shot from the Grassy Knoll.

Carrico did use the word "ragged" to describe the wound.

Wrong. The Warren Commission looked at all the evidence. The only
"evidence" of a GK shooter is testimony from people who say they heard
shots coming from the Knoll or saw "smoke" in that area. Those statements
were not corroborated by any physical evidence.

Witnesses saw a man with a rifle sitting inside a window on the sixth
floor of the TSBD, but no one saw anyone with a rifle standing outside,
right next to a public parking lot, with a manned railroad tower looking
over the area where a shooter supposedly was. Doesn't make sense.

The autopsy showed that all the shots came from behind. Even when the HSCA
accepted the dubious acoustical report and said there was probably a
shooter on the Knoll, they had to admit that the shot from there missed,
because the autopsy showed no evidence of a shot from the front.

The Warren Commission could not ignore what was not there.

Because it's very clear that if you go back and read Dr Carrico's notes he
uses the word *ragged* in them.

The REAL liars in the case are people like Mark Lane.

This is kind of ironic, considering some of the claims that you've made

There is little reason to believe a shot was fired from the knoll. The
acoustic evidence doesn`t hold up, the witnesses saying they thought the
sound of the shots originated from the knoll is weak, the photography
images represented to show shooters in uncompelling and physical evidence
is non-existent. That such a complex and dangerous plan would hinge on
things like this shooter not being captured or any of the numerous people
taking photographs getting a clear photo of the shooter is a lame idea.
This dead horse has been beat by conspiracy hobbyists for decades, but
it`s never getting up and finishing the race.

Everything you say is ridiculous. How does your shooter know that no one
will spot him on the sixth floor and report him? How does he know the
three men on the fifth floor won't catch him?
How come Baker doesn't shoot Oswald. How come Smith doesn't shoot the
fake SS agent?

Good point. No one said "sitting" so therefore there was a conspiracy to
kill JFK.

People can do more than one thing at a time. Brennan was watching the
motorcade but still managed to see a man with a rifle in the TSBD, whether
he was sitting or not.

Then simply cite James Chaney's testimony...

Or Adm Burkley's testimony...

Or the FBI research done in response to the Warren Commission's questions
about Jack Ruby...

As they didn't look at the throat wound, and dissect it... this is
meaningless.

Can you explain why the prosectors were ordered not to dissect the throat?

The Warren Commission demonstrated a *PATTERN* of evidence avoidance that
is quite obvious. Even some of the staff were complaining that what they
were doing would reflect poorly on them. Liebler did a memo on this, for
example...

This memo, Anthony, where Katzenbach says that "all of the facts
surrounding President Kennedy's assassination be made public"?

Where he says that "a complete and thorough FBI report on Oswald and the
assassination" should be made public?

What he talks about cutting off is the speculation and rumor eminating
from the Dallas PD, an organization that was skilled at investigating
local crimes, but had no expertise dealing with situations that carried
international implications.

Appoint a prestigious committee, get the facts out to the public, and put
an end to these unsubstantiated rumors coming out of a local police
department that might start World War III.

That's what Katzenbach was saying.


It is important that all of the facts surrounding President Kennedy’s
Assassination be made public in a way which will satisfy people in the
United States and abroad that all the facts have been told and that a
statement to this effect be made now.

The public must be satisfied that Oswald was the assassin; that he did not
have confederates who are still at large; and that the evidence was such
that he would have been convicted at trial.

Speculation about Oswald’s motivation ought to be cut off, and we should
have some basis for rebutting thought that this was a Communist conspiracy
or (as the Iron Curtain press is saying) a right–wing conspiracy to
blame it on the Communists. Unfortunately the facts on Oswald seem about
too pat — too obvious (Marxist, Cuba, Russian wife, etc.). The Dallas
police have put out statements on the Communist conspiracy theory, and it
was they who were in charge when he was shot and thus silenced.

The matter has been handled thus far with neither dignity nor conviction.
Facts have been mixed with rumour and speculation. We can scarcely let the
world see us totally in the image of the Dallas police when our President
is murdered.

I think this objective may be satisfied by making public as soon as
possible a complete and thorough FBI report on Oswald and the
assassination. This may run into the difficulty of pointing to
inconsistencies between this report and statements by Dallas police
officials. But the reputation of the Bureau is such that it may do the
whole job.The only other step would be the appointment of a Presidential
Commission of unimpeachable personnel to review and examine the evidence
and announce its conclusions. This has both advantages and disadvantages.
It [sic] think it can await publication of the FBI report and public
reaction to it here and abroad.I think, however, that a statement that all
the facts will be made public property in an orderly and responsible way
should be made now. We need something to head off public speculation or
Congressional hearings of the wrong sort.

And a perfectly understandable and reasonable statement it was too. This
was NO time to let wild rumors get out of hand and create a "Red Scare"
that could have untold consequences. In context, the meaning of his
statement, "The public must be satisfied that Oswald was the assassin;
that he did not have confederates who are still at large; and that the
evidence was such that he would have been convicted at trial." is clearly
defined by the preceding and follow remarks.

In particular, it should be noted that the prior statement said (all
emphasis mine), "It is important that ALL of the facts surrounding
President Kennedy’s Assassination be made public in a way which will
satisfy people in the United States and abroad that ALL the facts have
been told..." followed later by, "The matter has been handled thus far
with neither dignity nor conviction. FACTS have been mixed with RUMOUR and
SPECULATION."

The twisting of the plain meaning and context of his words by many in the
CT community is difficult to characterize as anything other than willful.
I think it is shameful that so many men, who appear to have been operating
both responsibly and in good faith, have in the aftermath been made out to
be underhanded and devious plotters scheming to keep the truth away from
the American people.

Warren Commission believers are dinosaurs.

John McAdams likes to talk about "convergence".

The first stage of convergence that is needed and demanded by the his
(McAdams) own evidence is a convergence to the HSCA conclusion of a Grassy
Knoll shot.

The fact is that it is easy to criticize, saying the investigation
should have done this, that or the other thing. The fact is that this
approach can be used to make the case the US was trying to lose the war or
get it`s soldiers slaughtered by focusing just on questionable actions and
boneheaded decisions. Ben doesn`t understand that he can`t really make his
case using this fallacious approach, he needs to make it from the inside,
with a memo or insider confirming his claims, not some hobbyist on the
outside saying "This is how it looks to me, prove me wrong".

The US government has a PATTERN of making boneheaded moves that get it`s

You guys sure do enjoy painting everyone who believes Oswald acted alone
with a wide brush by accusing everyone as "Warren Commissions believers".
I don't base my reason for believing Oswald pulled the only trigger that
day on the WC findings. I base my conclusions on my own research into the
matter. It happens.

It all started for me when I started taking a closer look at the things
conspiracy buffs were taking liberties with, by either taking away--or
adding to--things that people witnessed, said,or didn't say.

Then, when I discovered the Decker crosstalk and word got out before the
release of the Ramsey panel's findings, and the buffs found out that what
I did was going to destroy the only scientific proof of a conspiracy--and
their reaction was opposite of what they preach, I was really convinced
that most of these people are not trying to find what they call the
"truth", their goal is to do absolutely nothing but to keep this thing
alive! They're not the least bit interested in proving anything except
that Oswald isn't guilty of killing President Kennedy. It isn't a matter
of President Kennedy as a person who was murdered in cold blood, with so
many of the buffs, it's all about them and good ole "patsy" Oswald, and to
hell with John Fitzgerald Kennedy!

One doesn't need x ray vision. I saw/see right through them!

Decker crosstalk does not prove that there was no shot from the Knoll.

We do not need the acoustic tape to prove the shot from the knoll.

The ear witness testimony is just fine for that.

The reality is there is cross talk and there was a shot from the Knoll.

All you did was find one piece of the puzzle. There are many pieces to the
puzzle. But you let it go to your head and you stopped investigating and
then started making statements and well you know how it goes...

Of COURSE they don't want to talk to me...

I ask questions about the evidence that they can't answer...

Nor, in fact, can you.

And when someone asserts that the Warren Commission "looked at all the
evidence," I point out, with IRREFUTABLE proof, that the statement isn't
correct, and there's nothing more to say.

If I were not accurate, then people in this forum *WOULD* refute me by
citing.

Anything that is not in the Warren Report is not considered evidence to
these people. They are not investigators. They are defenders of a book.
They are a lot like bible thumpers. They are even in disagreement with the
HSCA. They cannot be reasoned with.

Having said that, please continue to post. Not for them, but for those of
us who are investigators.

This is really simple...

Let us imagine that there *are* those who believe the Warren Commission's
basic theory, but don't accept everything they said.

Then when I point out where they lied, or where they evaded, avoided, and
buried evidence, I'd have *THOSE* people open-minded enough to see the
point... or at *LEAST* able to cite evidence against what I state.

Instead, there's only two things that ever happen... one - changing the
topic to something else without acknowledging the truth of what I stated,
or two, complete avoidance...

You've chosen option one...

The statement was made that the Warren Commission "looked at all the
evidence" - I refute it by simply referring to examples of evidence that
they PROVABLY failed to look at...

And rather than acknowledge this, as someone claiming not to be tied to
the Warren Commission... you change the topic.

Now the topic is the lumping of all Warren Commission believers into one
pile.

I think I'd rather go back to the topic that no-one here is willing to
address...

Decker crosstalk proves that there are no shots--period--on the Dictabelt!

It isn't an "acoustic tape" mike. It's a Dictabelt. BIG difference!

No Kidding! I've been working on this far longer than you have Mike. Tell

How could it even be possible to look at all the evidence in any crime?
When is all the evidence discovered?

I`ll play. But you don`t want to tangle with me, you don`t come out so
good.

I`ve asked you many questions over the years about things you said which you couldn`t answer.

You didn`t provide any IRREFUTABLE proof of any such thing. You pointed
out some things that were not *in* evidence. There was an infinite number
of things the Warren Commission didn`t look at, but this doesn`t make
those things evidence.

Can Ben show that the WC didn`t look at all the things *in* evidence
instead of focusing on the things that he thinks should have been there?

<snicker> Ben has posted this over in the nuthouse...

"Bud is even trying to claim that only evidence *LOOKED AT* by the Warren
Commission was evidence. How amusingly STUPID!!!"

He refuses to address what I actually wrote here, and instead opts to
misrepresent my argument in a forum he has me killfiltered in. Theres a
word for that, but I don`t think I can get it past the moderation.

Anyway, here is what Ben wrote once more, and my response...

"Bud is even trying to claim that only evidence *LOOKED AT* by the Warren
Commission was evidence. How amusingly STUPID!!!"

Obviously they can only weigh what they look at. They can only look at
what is *in* evidence to come to a conclusion. Ben didn`t refute the idea
that the Warren Commission looked at all the evidence *in* evidence, he
brought of things he felt should have been *in* evidence. Conceivably
there is an almost unlimited amount of evidence not "in" evidence, but the
Warren Commission can`t be faulted for not looking at it. Much would
almost certainly be undiscovered. Ben needs to show something that was
*in* evidence that the WC didn`t look at and stop erecting strawmen.
