Straw man argument. I never said that, and it's not my logic. It's your
silly logic, and you're trying to foist it on me.
The jacket existed.
It was recovered after about a week, when TSBD employees realized it was
probably Oswald's and it might be sought as evidence.
In contrast to that, there is no evidence that Oswald had curtain rods in
the long package he was seen in possession of by Frazier and Randle. There
are no curtain rods in the archives that were in Oswald's possession.

No, it most certainly is your problem. It's your claim the curtain rods in
the archives are the ones Oswald had the morning of the assassination when
seen by Frazier and Randle. You therefore need to support your assertion
with the evidence that indicates that. A flat assertion doesn't establish
anything of that nature.
The fact you try to claim support for this claim doesn't fall on your
shoulders ("not my problem"), when it's your claim, is beyond bizarre.
Your claim, your burden of proof.

I'm asking if you have any evidence for your assertion that the curtain
rods you claim were in Oswald's possession the morning of the
assassination wound up in the archives as you claimed. You have yet to
provide any evidence supporting that assertion. You appear to be claiming
you could prove it if there was evidence of it, but the evidence that
proves the existence of the curtain rods doesn't exist at present.
That's what I thought. You have no evidence.

You're begging the question. That's a logical fallacy where you imbed in
your argument that which must be proved. You're assuming the evidence
would be available to prove your assertion if it wasn't covered up.
That's not evidence. That's simply the logical fallacy of begging the
question by you.
At this point your argument appears to be "I can't provide the evidence,
but I could if they hadn't covered it up".
In other words, you have no evidence for your assertion, and it's all just
a big fat assumption by you.

Quoting Anthony Marsh: "Poisoning the Well. When you can't wwin an

That's another logical fallacy by you.

Can you document the 'helpful person' who found curtain rods under the
jacket? Were Oswald's supposed curtain rods he had on the morning of the
22nd assigned a Commission Exhibit number? The jacket recovered from the
TSBD was assigned CE163. Here's a picture of it:
https://www.history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/wcvols/wh16/html/WH_Vol16_0273a.htm
I can establish the existence of the jacket. Can you establish the
existence of the curtain rods you claim Oswald had in his possession on
the morning of the 22nd?
No.
You can't prove they even existed, let alone that they were found in the
depository or wound up in the national archives. All of this - all of this
- is simply assumed by you.
Assumptions are not evidence.

Begging the question once more. You again appear to be admitting you don't
have any evidence, but now it appears you're claiming you don't have the
evidence due to the incompetence of the DPD. Above you claimed it might
have been covered-up. Above that you claimed it might be missing due to
poor documentation on the part of the FBI or DPD.
Face it, no evidence is still no evidence.
And what you have is a great big pile of no evidence that you keep
pointing to as if it's meaningful. It doesn't matter how big a pile of no
evidence you got. It still is no evidence.
And you got an even bigger pile of excuses for why you have no evidence.
Just to be clear, in case you misunderstood: I'm asking for your evidence
Oswald had curtain rods on the morning of the 22nd that eventually wound
up in the archives, as you claimed. I am not asking for all your varying
excuses for why you can't provide that evidence.

There is no straw man argument. I am simply contrasting your various
claims you've made here and asking you to explain how you reconcile
calling Frazier an incompetent klutz on the one hand and then citing his
estimate of the length of the package Oswald had on the other hand as if
Frazier couldn't make a mistake ("The bag that Frazier saw was too short
to hold the Carcano.")
We're all holding our breath waiting for you to explain why you believe
the man you called an incompetent klutz was infallible in estimating
lengths of packages, particularly the one in Oswald's possession that
morning.
C'mon Tony, surely you can explain this apparent contradiction in your
claims.

Not my fault you can't reconcile your own various claims about the package
and about how good an eyewitness Frazier was. As I said, CTs either accept
Frazier estimate was solid and Oswald had only a 24 to 27 inch package, or
Frazier was an -- how'd you phrase it? - an incompetent klutz and Oswald
had nothing in his hands. They jump from one extreme to the other,
ignoring always the most reasonable conclusion ... that Oswald had a long
package in his possession that actually measured about 36 inches and
Frazier simply estimated it shorter than the actual length.
To CTs - including you - that's heresy. Why accept a reasonable conclusion
when you can flit between two mutually contradictory unreasonable ones?

Demohrenschilt had access to the Depository and the Paine garage on the
22nd of November, 1963? My understanding he was in Haiti at that time, so
I'm going to challenge you on that claim as well. Please post the support
for your claim. I'd love for you to provide the evidence for any of the
above named having access to the Paine garage and the TSBD but of course,
you don't have any evidence for that, either.
If anything, it will no doubt be more of the "the conspiracy dogs ate my
evidence" that you've argued for thus far, offering up excuses for why you
can't provide the evidence.

Focus, Tony. Neither did I. When I wrote, "your claim that Oswald's
curtain rods are in the archives" I am talking about the curtain rods
supposedly within the long package he was seen with the morning of the
assassination. I am not presuming ownership of curtain rods I don't
believe existed. I am asking you once more to provide the evidence that
there are curtain rods in the national archives that were earlier in the
possession of Oswald within the long package he was seen in possession of
on the morning of 11/22/63.
Either you have such evidence or you don't. It appears you don't.
It's okay. You can admit you don't have any such evidencce.

Sorry, no. This is just a desperate attempt to change the subject and
shift the burden of proof.
You made a claim. You either can support the claim or you can't. It
appears you can't.
Trying to change the subject to how Oswald carried the package isn't going
to fly here. I don't have to respond to your attempts at changing the
subject.
Where's the evidence to support your claim that Oswald had curtain rods in
the package on the morning of the assassination, and those curtain rods
are in the archives?
You either have such evidence or you don't.
