1.) Why does every scrap of ballistics evidence in the record of both
the JFK and J.D. Tippit murders lead straight into Lee Harvey Oswald's
weaponry? There's not a bullet, a bullet fragment, or a bullet shell
(or a gun) surrounding either murder that doesn't spell "Oswald's
Guns". Why? And if Oswald was a mere "patsy" and his guns weren't
actually used at all on 11/22 (as many conspiracists believe is the
case), then an even bigger question is...HOW was this pulled off so
nicely (times 2 murder scenes)? (And: Using the excuse that a gob of
stuff was "planted" and/or "faked", without a single bit of hard
evidence to back up such allegations, is the pinnacle of CT
desperation.)
2.) Why is it that less than 5% of the total witnesses in DP heard
gunshots coming from more than ONE DISTINCT GENERAL LOCATION (front vs.
rear) on 11/22? .... Witness accounts are not always very reliable,
granted. But 99 out of 104 earwitnesses (via John McAdams' poll
results) hearing shots from only ONE single locality (rather than two
or more) if there HAD, in fact, been two or more shooters (both front
and rear) is a mighty strange occurrence....not to mention mighty
convenient for any and all of the "real killers" located throughout the
Plaza. Could some have been mistaken? Sure. But 99 of 104? What are the
odds of that large a % NOT hearing what REALLY occurred on 11/22 (i.e.,
shots coming from at LEAST three differing locations in DP, via ANY
anti-SBT theory a CTer chooses to put in the place of the SBT)?
3.) If a total of up to 6 or 8 shots were fired in DP (or however many
above the number "3"), then please explain how it was that 100% of the
NEWSMEN, REPORTERS, AND OTHER MEDIA REPRESENTATIVES who were in the
motorcade and told of their experience just a matter of minutes after
the event said they each heard EXACTLY THREE SHOTS fired? .... Did the
"real killers" just get lucky (again) with respect to this important
information that was going out Live to the world, starting with
Merriman Smith's initial UPI newswire bulletin at 12:34 PM? Did the
"real killers" (numbering up to 4 or 5 by some CTer accounts) just get
extremely lucky that no more than THREE shots exactly, the maximum
number it was later determined that Oswald could have fired from his
gun in the given timeframe and the number of shots matching the number
of spent rifle shells in the SN, were heard by Smith, as well as by Jay
Watson, Robert MacNeil, Bob Clark, Jerry Haynes, and Jack Bell....all
of whom were in a direct position to almost-instantly report their
"Three-Shot" account to America? .... Man, those "real" assassins must
have had some magical powers that day indeed, as they were somehow able
to mask all of those "other" shots and get the overall assassination
fusillade to funnel down to JUST THREE audible gunblasts to be
conveniently heard by the vast majority of witnesses in Dealey Plaza,
including (as far as I am aware) 100% of the media who reported the
event minutes later via newswires, TV, and radio.
4.) If the SBT is a bunch of hooey -- How is it even remotely possible
that THREE separate shots from THREE distinctly-different gunmen are
going to end up causing the wounds on the two victims in JFK's car that
were inflicted, so that this wound "pattern" on two men is SO DAMN
CLOSE to a "SBT-like wound pattern" that the SBT can even be remotely
considered by ANYBODY after the assassination? .... Plus: Where are
these bullets that "replace" the SBT's official bullet in the record
(CE399)? Again, assuming that all three of these mystery missiles just
"vanished", "got lost", or were "swept under the carpet" by unknown
conspirators is an CT exercise that is wrought with disingenuousness
and a lack of verifiable proof of any kind whatsoever.
5.) Why does Lee Harvey Oswald act like a very guilty man after 12:30
PM on 11/22/63 (if he never killed anybody that day in Dallas)? (Segues
into #6 below.....)
6.) If Lee Oswald was nothing but an innocent "patsy", how did the
clever "patsy plotters" get Oswald, their one and only dupe, to do all
of the following things on 11/22/63:
a.) How did the plotters get Oswald to show up for work at all on the
morning of 11/22?
b.) How did they guarantee that Oswald would stay at work (and INSIDE
THE BUILDING) until after JFK was shot at 12:30 PM?
c.) How did these miracle plotters manage to arrange for Patsy Oswald
to stay completely out of sight of ANY eyewitnesses at precisely 12:30
PM, the crucial time when the plotters couldn't afford to have their
"Patsy" spotted anywhere but on the 6th Floor (with a gun) taking shots
at President Kennedy?
d.) How did the patsy-plotters know for a fact which TSBD book boxes
Lee Oswald had touched on 11/22 (or 11/21), so that the bad guys could
use those precise cartons (laden with Oswald's prints) within the
Sniper's Nest on Friday? Did the conspirators just got lucky that
Oswald just happened to touch two of the boxes that were found deep
inside the SN, including the rifle-rest carton?
e.) How did the conspirators manage to arrange for Oswald to make a
suspicious-looking and out-of-the-ordinary trip to Irving on 11/21? And
how did they get LHO to carry a bulky-looking package into work with
him on 11/22? (Was Oswald the most-cooperative Patsy in history...or
just the dumbest?)
f.) Why does Oswald leave the TSBD at approx. 12:33 (and later lie
about why he left)?
g.) Why does Oswald kill Officer J.D. Tippit (if he didn't kill JFK)?
.... No CTer shall ever be able to reconcile the Tippit slaying into a
believable and reasonable "Oswald's Innocent Of Killing JFK" scenario.
Because if Oswald HADN'T just shot JFK, why would he START killing
people less than an hour later on 10th Street? Why?
h.) Assuming Oswald wasn't TOTALLY ignorant of the ENTIRE so-called
"plot" that surrounded him, how in the world did the plotters get
Oswald to keep his mouth shut for 45+ hours while in custody? Was Lee
just being nice toward the people he might have suspected had just set
him up for multiple murders? .... Or did Lee truly know absolutely
NOTHING about any of the details (small or large) re. the assassination
that has now been placed squarely on the shoulders of him and him alone
in the hours after JFK and Tippit were shot to death? And if the latter
is true....what was in that package he took to work? And why does he
have to lie about so much stuff after his arrest?
7.) If JFK and JBC had actually been struck by several more bullets
than just the two that the WC determined likely struck the victims,
then why doesn't the Zapruder Film show more definitive "He Was Shot
Right THERE!" moments within the famous 26-second motion picture? (At
least one or two more such moments should be readily-noticeable on the
film if some of the CTers are right, like Bob Groden. Or did ALL of
these various "hits" occur while both victims were behind the sign for
that whopping one second in real time?)
8.) Instead of the SBT and Bullet CE399, if JFK had been hit by two
separate bullets in the back and neck (as nearly all CTers believe did
occur, with both missiles miraculously disappearing off the Mortal Coil
before they could be entered into the official record by any
non-plotters, assuming that CTers believe there WERE any "non-plotters"
actually handling any of the evidence on 11/22) -- what caused these
two bullets to suddenly stop completely inside JFK's upper back and
neck?
9.) If the shot that struck President Kennedy in the head had
originated from the front, then why does the official autopsy report
definitively state that JFK was shot just TWO times, both times from
"behind and somewhat above the level of the deceased"? .... Do CTers
TRULY believe that ALL THREE autopsy doctors were "in" on a cover-up to
hide the true nature of Kennedy's wounds? All three of 'em??? Is that
really a reasonable assumption to make? And it must have been an
all-encompassing doctor cover-up, because Finck and Boswell signed that
report too (in addition to Humes). Again -- a reasonable assumption?
10.) Why on this Earth would any band of professional assassins (bent
on Oswald taking the lone fall) have even CONSIDERED utilizing multiple
rifles to kill their one target on 11/22? .... Doesn't this seem the
slightest bit nutty to any CTer who believes that Oswald was, indeed,
"set up" well prior to 11/22 (via faked backyard photos, or "Oswald
Doubles" in Mexico, etc., etc.)? And if it doesn't seem just a little
nutty, why not? Because such a crazy "Multi-Gunmen, Lone-Patsy" plot is
just screwy from top to bottom, and it would be quite obvious to even
Helen Keller as to why this is so.
11.) If Lee Harvey Oswald didn't shoot and kill John F. Kennedy and
J.D. Tippit on November 22nd, 1963 --- WHO THE HELL DID KILL THESE TWO
MEN? And where did the patsy-organizing conspirators get ahold of the
one (or even two) perfect-looking "Oswald look-alikes" to take the
patsy's place in both DP and on 10th Street on 11/22? Or are all of the
witnesses who positively IDed Oswald as the one and only killer of
Tippit all lying conspirators themselves?
It doesn't. The tests done by the WC, for example, show that a shot from the
6th floor, entering near the EOP, would exit the face.
This is rather clear to anyone who gives it more than a moment's thought - so
the WC didn't really need a ballistics expert to prove it.
And, of course, with no chain of possession on much of this "evidence", it
really doesn't mean very much.
>There's not a bullet, a bullet fragment, or a bullet shell
>(or a gun) surrounding either murder that doesn't spell "Oswald's
>Guns".
Again, untrue. There's still several "bullet fragments" that are in the autopsy
X-ray's that have never been removed or identified.
And, of course, since the Tippit killers' shells were identified as coming from
an automatic, rather than a revolver, they can't be matched to LHO's pistol
either.
>Why? And if Oswald was a mere "patsy" and his guns weren't
>actually used at all on 11/22 (as many conspiracists believe is the
>case), then an even bigger question is...HOW was this pulled off so

Quite simply. When the investigators are determined to prove something... if
they are reasonably intelligent, they can generally do so.
>(And: Using the excuse that a gob of
>stuff was "planted" and/or "faked", without a single bit of hard
>evidence to back up such allegations, is the pinnacle of CT

It certainly would be the "pinnacle" of desperation, were it actually true.
Unfortunately for dishonest LNT'ers such as yourself, the items in evidence that
I've thus far identified as altered, planted, or forged - actually have evidence
to support it.
This is why you continually snip and run, rather than respond. For there's
really nothing that you *can* say.
>2.) Why is it that less than 5% of the total witnesses in DP heard
>gunshots coming from more than ONE DISTINCT GENERAL LOCATION (front vs.
>rear) on 11/22?
Because less than 5% were either asked, and *also* occupied a location that
would allow them to recognize the multiple directions of fire.
The question that *should* be occupying your mind, is how to *explain* those
that heard shots from more than one location.
Or how to explain that virtually everyone pointed to just two locations.
> .... Witness accounts are not always very reliable,
>granted.
Nope. Taint "granted" at all.

It's interesting to note that even as soon as Saturday, the FBI was slanting the
questioning of eyewitnesses - telling one of them, for example, (as best as I
can recall it) that if he didn't hear three shots from the TSBD, he didn't hear
the assassination.
The well documented FBI intimidation of eyewitnesses can't be explained in terms
of the WC's theory.
So LNT'ers have to deny, duck, and run...
>3.) If a total of up to 6 or 8 shots were fired in DP (or however many

Amazing! Can you explain why 100% of Signal Supervisors for the Union Terminal
Railroad stated that there were four shots... and that they came from *two*
locations?
Interestingly, most of the "newsmen, reporters, and other media representatives
who were in the motorcade" were not even on Elm street at the time of the
assassination.
It would be of more interest to hear a tally of military, police, and other
earwitnesses who can be presumed to have *experience* with shooting. Would you
care to offer such?
> .... Did the
>"real killers" just get lucky (again) with respect to this important
>information that was going out Live to the world, starting with
>Merriman Smith's initial UPI newswire bulletin at 12:34 PM?
Nope. It really didn't matter how many shots were required. It was only
important to keep the number down to a reasonable number that the alleged
assassin could have fired in the time frame that they could convince people
existed.
>Did the
>"real killers" (numbering up to 4 or 5 by some CTer accounts) just get

When you try working "backwards", you get these sort of silly statements.
The real problem was that the closest earwitnesses to the TSBD asserted that
only *two* shots had been fired... and initially, only *two* empty cartridges
were discovered.
Ironed over quite neatly, for Blacks in Texas at that time could be 'convinced'
of whatever the police wanted from them.

"Fusillade" indeed. Far too many people heard exactly that... and it was the
undoing of the WCR. It was really a shame that they were stuck with using a
rifle that could be traced to the patsy.
One that really couldn't be fired all that quickly.

How silly! The pattern *didn't* look like one bullet going through two
bodies... the WC was forced to make it so appear. You're stuck with a
zig-zagging bullet.
> .... Plus: Where are

Collected by various agents, and probably deposited in a file cabinet in
Hoover's office.

Other than, of course, a photograph showing one of these bullets being dug out
of the grass.
And eyewitness accounts...

He doesn't. Nor can you show any such "guilty actions" by LHO.

Wasn't difficult. I'd guesstimate that in excess of 95% of people who are
*supposed* to show up for work on a given day actually do so.
Nor did it matter... they had multiple patsies to work with, were they half
intelligent. Frazier was almost certainly one of them.
>b.) How did they guarantee that Oswald would stay at work (and INSIDE
>THE BUILDING) until after JFK was shot at 12:30 PM?
Again, not particularly hard to do. Most people that work a normal 8 hour shift
actually do so.
I really do hope your questions become more difficult to answer than these!

Wouldn't have mattered. The FBI was there to re-write history if needed - as
they did with any number of eyewitness accounts.
When you're the one who does the "investigation", you can "find" whatever you
need.
>d.) How did the patsy-plotters know for a fact which TSBD book boxes

Can you produce a chart of each box on the 6th floor, showing what percentage of
them had LHO's prints, and which ones didn't?
The testimony clearly shows that the 6th floor was one of his *normal* areas of
duty. It would be surprising if they couldn't find his prints.
>e.) How did the conspirators manage to arrange for Oswald to make a
>suspicious-looking and out-of-the-ordinary trip to Irving on 11/21?
Offered to buy his rifle. Interestingly, when arrested, LHO had an amount of
money on him that suggests this very scenario.
>And how did they get LHO to carry a bulky-looking package into work with
>him on 11/22?
I don't believe that the evidence supports this. But if he *did* bring the
rifle, don't you think he'd bring it to where he *could* sell it?
>(Was Oswald the most-cooperative Patsy in history...or
>just the dumbest?)
A traditional logical error. No-one in the TSDB knew, before 12:30pm, that a
rifle was going to be pivotal in history.
>f.) Why does Oswald leave the TSBD at approx. 12:33
Probably for the same reason that others left.
>(and later lie about why he left)?
Prove it's a lie.
>g.) Why does Oswald kill Officer J.D. Tippit (if he didn't kill JFK)?
He didn't.
>.... No CTer shall ever be able to reconcile the Tippit slaying into a

>Because if Oswald HADN'T just shot JFK, why would he START killing

That's why most CT'ers who've actually spent any time with the evidence don't
believe that LHO was the killer of Tippit.
>h.) Assuming Oswald wasn't TOTALLY ignorant of the ENTIRE so-called

Perhaps because he was doing exactly as trained? Do you truly suppose that our
intelligence agents are trained to blurt out everything if they get arrested?

Curtain rods, most likely.

The first official viewing of the film did find *exactly* that. See

You presume that the extant Z-film that *you* view is real history.
That can't explain the testimony of those who viewed it early on, or those who
were in Dealey Plaza.

The bullet coming from the front, striking JFK in the neck, ranged downward,
causing the respiratory problems that caused the Parkland medical staff to
insert chest tubes.
The bullet striking JFK's back, simply didn't go in very far - as it didn't
invade the pleural cavity.

Yep. All three of them *were* military. They had their orders.
In fact, it wasn't too long ago that the traditional LNT'er stance was that no
orders were issued in the autopsy room. I suspect that not even *you*,
Davey-boy, would like to try defending that now...

And yet, you can't seem to be able to defend your assertions when they are
refuted on this newsgroup.
It's 'snip and duck, snip and duck, run away...' all the time.

They didn't. No-one who claimed to have seen the assassin in the SN was willing
to identify LHO as the one. Until, of course, they'd been pressured into it.
>and on 10th Street on 11/22?
The closest eyewitness refused to identify LHO. He was later pressured into
doing so. And a number of the descriptions fail to fit LHO.
>Or are all of the

I do wish you could do better than this.
But, knowing you, Davey-boy - you'll run in the opposite direction, and snip
like crazy.
Coward, aren't you?
>> "How silly! The pattern *didn't* look like one bullet going through two bodies... the WC was forced to make it so appear. You're stuck with a zig-zagging bullet."
And, naturally, Dale K. Myers is a dirty, rotten bastard...with nothing
on his mind other than putting forth the rotten lies of the WC &
SBT....even though when he began his computer animation project he was
a CTer himself. Right, Ben?
Anyway ..... Nice job, Ben. You didn't disappoint. I was expecting this
type of kook-ster response re. the nearly-perfect (if not perfect)
alignment of the three bullet holes which CT-kooks say were actually
caused by not only three separate bullets, but by three separate gunmen
to boot.
Ben, you'd be better off trying a Mark Fuhrman-like SBT dodge, and
making believe the bullet somehow bounced off of something wholly
unknown after entering JFK's back (kind of like skipping rocks off of a
pond I guess...even though there's no water in JFK's pond; so how it
managed this upward tilt upon exiting Kennedy's neck, only Mark F.
seems to know).
But at least Fuhrman's craziness is only one-third as crazy as a
CT-Kook's anti-SBT version of 3 bullets and 3 assassins responsible for
the SBT wounds. And maybe even upped to 4 bullets, per Bobby Groden,
who likes to say (approx. every other Tuesday I think) that Connally
was possibly/probably hit with two different missiles....with both of
those bullets getting "lost" too (natch).
>> "You're stuck with a zig-zagging bullet."
And you, Mr. CT, via this silly "zig-zagging" remark, I'm afraid are
stuck with being a CT-kook (probably for life). Or at least until May
2007.
>> "Wouldn't have mattered. The FBI was there to re-write history if needed - as they did with any number of eyewitness accounts."
And if Lee Oswald had wandered outside and gotten himself photographed
and filmed by, say, Phil Willis, Abraham Zapruder, Tina Towner, Wilma
Bond, and Dave Wiegman --- just exactly how was the FBI going to
"re-write history" then?
Of course, many CT nuthatches still DO, indeed, think Oswald WAS
photographed at exactly 12:30 PM....by Ike Altgens.
Was the FBI prepared to delete Oswald's image out of every potential
film and photo he appeared in after he wandered outside....even though
(per the can't-miss plan of these ace conspirators) Oswald was needed
on the 6th Floor at 12:30?
CTers do realize how stupid such a "We'll Just Let Oswald Wander Around
Aimlessly At Twelve-Thirty" Patsy plot sounds when examined with just
an ounce of common sense...don't they?
I wonder.
But....never let common sense get in the way of a good after-the-fact
hunk of CT story-telling. That's always been a kook's motto. Why change
now, right?
Once again, the coward can't support his *own* words. Davey-boy snipped the
majority of the post.
Looks like Davey-boy has had all his arguments refuted beyond his ability to
respond yet again.

I've paid no attention to Dale Myers whatsoever. I've not seen his work, and to
be honest, wouldn't be interested in it anyway.
He makes a very fundamental error, so his work is meaningless.
Now, why not try to explain the zig-zagging bullet? You are surely quite aware
that the pattern of injuries did *NOT* force authorities to develop the SBT...
it was Tague's injury.
Rather embarrassing, isn't it?

Actually, that's the initial testimony by Dr. Shaw, as I recall. That Connally
was hit by as many as 3 bullets.
And, of course, the NPIC asserted that there were 6 to 8 shots from *three*
directions in the original Z-film.

I've no clue what Fuhrman believes... but considering that the back wound was
lower than the entry wound in the neck - and the FACT that transit was a
speculation made after the autopsy by those who were embarrassed at not seeing,
or more likely, being ordered not to see the neck wound; you certainly would
have an upward trajectory.

The extant Z-film, even altered as it is, supports that Connally was hit on at
least two separate occasions.

Is that the latest prediction of when Bugliosi will actually publish a book?
1. When the WC had ballistics tests done, shooting a bullet into the entry
location of the head specified by the autopsy report, the bullet invariably
exited the forehead or face of the target – can you explain why JFK’s face was
virtually untouched, and certainly showed no signs of an exiting bullet?
2. Why do LNT’ers refuse to admit that there was a wound in the back of the
head, when the autopsy report clearly states: “1. There is a large irregular
defect of the scalp and skull on the right involving chiefly the parietal bone
but extending somewhat into the temporal and occipital regions. In this region
there is an actual absence of scalp and bone producing a defect which measures
approximately 13 cm. in greatest diameter.”?
4. Why did so many credible eyewitnesses point to the front of the limo as the
source of shots being fired? If eyewitness testimony is unreliable, and the
claim is made that echoes were what was being heard, why were so many
eyewitnesses specific to the location? IOW’s, why didn’t anyone specify a shot
from the left?
5. Can you explain why the bullets at the Tippit scene, identified as Automatic,
changed to revolver?
6. Why was the closest police eyewitness to the murder (James Chaney), who just
coincidently would have testified in contradiction to the SBT, never questioned
by the FBI or Warren Commission prior to the release of the WCR?
7. Why was there no close-up photographs ever made of the limo? Why was it
being washed within minutes of the assassination?
8. Why were the NAA results buried by the WC?
9. Why was the Justice Department concerned enough to spy on the Garrison trial,
and attempt to influence it by sending Boswell to counteract what Finck was
testifying to?
10. Why did Baker come up with so many different versions of meeting up with
Oswald, and why did the WC dishonestly move Baker’s time of arrival back so far,
and the alleged assassin up so much? They did so by false statements, why was
this needed?
11. Why were the test results of firing a rifle at Oak Ridge buried, and are
still denied by most LNT'ers today?
12. Why was a ballistics expert hired by the WC fired when he refused to endorse
their theory? (Or, more correctly - the WC refused to allow him to testify, and
eliminated any reference to his opinions in the WCR.)
13. Why did the FBI engage in a pattern of eyewitness intimidation to get the
statements they wanted? Dave Powers, for example… or Tomlinson?
14. What is the 6.5mm virtually round object that no-one saw in the AP X-ray on
the night of the Autopsy... and why was everyone so blind on the night of the
autopsy? Any idea why John McAdams, as well as all other LNT'ers - keep running
away from this topic?
15. How can a bullet transit without breaking the spine, as has been
conclusively demonstrated with CAT scans?
16. Why was dissection of the bullet track, and neck wound, forbidden to the
prosectors? Why were they allowed to dissect the chest incisions, which were
clearly *not* bullet wounds, but not allowed to dissect the bullet wounds?
17. Why were the prosectors not allowed to examine JFK's clothing, a routine and
completely ordinary procedure in an autopsy, despite the fact that the clothes
were certainly within reach?
18. Why have photographs and X-rays disappeared out of the inventory? Only the
government had control of them...
19. Why did the CIA have a program of harassment of CT authors, and why did they
actively promote the WCR through their friendly news contacts?
20. Why did the Secret Service remove the limo from the jurisdiction of the DPD?
Perhaps an argument can be made for removing JFK's body - as Johnson needed
Jackie with him to provide an aura of legitimacy, but there was *NO* valid
reason to remove the scene of the crime from Dallas - or was there? Can you
provide it?
21. Why is there no 'chain of evidence' on so much of the evidence in this case?
CE399, for example, almost no-one who originally handled it will identify it.
22. Why did the FBI seem so insistent on erasing the record of a Minox camera
owned by LHO?
23. Why were military intelligence files on LHO never released... even to
government investigators?
24. Why did both the WC and HSCA find it necessary to *LIE* about their own
collected evidence in order to support their conclusions? In the case of the
HSCA, it's not even disputable - they lied blatantly about the medical
testimony... why??
25. Why have so many *new* "scientific" theories been developed for this case?
Never before heard - such as the "jet effect" and "eyewitness unreliability" and
"photographs trump eyewitnesses"? Or can you point to these "theories" being
used in any prior legal case...
26. Why does Altgens show Chaney in a position that he's *never* seen in the
extant Z-film?
27. Why do *dozen's* of eyewitnesses agree on a slowdown or stop of the limo,
yet we can't see it in the Z-film?
28. Why do *dozens* of eyewitnesses agree with each other on the location of the
large wound on the back of JFK's head, in contradiction to the BOH photo?
29. Why does the Autopsy Report contradict the BOH photo? (The Autopsy Report
stated that the wound extended to the occipital, and was *devoid* of bone and
scalp... this simply cannot be seen in the BOH photo.)
30. Why did you previously assert that professional hit men work alone – when
it’s a known fact that military snipers (certainly “professional” in any sense
of the word), *do* work in pairs?
31. Why did the WC ignore the previous assassination attempts on JFK’s life in
Chicago and Tampa?
32. Why did the WCR never deal with the unidentified fingerprint found in the
Sniper’s Nest?
33. Why did the WC simply lie about the first press conference with Dr. Perry?
We all know that they certainly had the power to get film of the conference, and
they refused to do so... why?
34. From the Jan 27th Executive Session:
***************************************
Mr. Rankin. Then there is a great range of material in regard to the
wounds, and the autopsy and this point of exit or entrance of the
bullet in the front of the neck, and that all has to be developed much
more than we have at the present time.
We have an explanation there in the autopsy that probably a
fragment came out the front of the neck, but with the elevation other
shot must have come from, and the angle, it seems quite apparent now,
since we have the picture of where the bullet entered in the back,
that the bullet entered below the shoulder blade to the right of the
backbone, which is below the place where the picture shows the bullet
came out in the neckband of the shirt in front, and the bullet,
according to the autopsy didn't strike any bone at all, that
particular bullet, and go through.
*****************************************
"Below the shoulder blades?"
"probably a fragment came out the front of the neck?"
Can you point to any statement in the current existing Autopsy report that would
support these statements?
Was Spector simply mistaken? Under what conditions could he come up with such a
mistaken impression of what the Autopsy Report said?
35. Why was their such an amazing amount of clumsiness when it came to the
assassination films? The Z-film being broke in several places, the Muchmore
film being broke right at one of the head shots, the Nix Film reportedly
returning in a different condition from when it was taken from him?
Well... this'll do it for now. I'm sure I've missed a number of great
questions... Robert, for example, likes to ask a rather simple one that no-one
seems to be able to actually answer. But these should keep you busy for quite
some time... particularly if you actually answer them. But I won't hold my
breath.
Davey-boy, you're too much of a coward to actually *answer* this post without
snipping.
Oh...isn't that special. So, this must mean that Dale's naturally got
it all wrong with his pro-SBT stance...right? It's better for you to
just ignore the doability and plausibility of the SBT, rather than look
at Myers' work. Good thinking.
>> "You are surely quite aware that the pattern of injuries did *NOT* force authorities to develop the SBT...it was Tague's injury."
Nonsense. Go read Page #117 of the Warren Report. On that page, the WC
expressly states its belief that Tague's injury might very well have
been caused by a fragment from the bullet that hit JFK in the head.
Therefore, the WC wasn't boxing themselves in to NEEDING the SBT at all
costs. You must think the WC added in those comments re. Tague on Pg.
117 to cover their asses, right?
But, unlike CTers, the WC (when everything was examined and taken into
account) utilized some CS&L and realized that JFK & JBC were aligned
one in front of the other....plus no bullets left in Kennedy's
neck/back....plus the autopsy report which stated a bullet did exit
JFK's neck....plus Robert Frazier's testimony re. the plausibility of
the SBT and the victims' alignment in the vehicle (and the lack of
bullets and bullet damage to the limo's interior).
All of that added up to one easily-determinable conclusion -- A single
bullet almost certainly must have passed through both Kennedy &
Connally. And if the FBI had released its report after a nine-plus
month investigation (instead of just a rushed 2-week report), they too
would have concluded just what the WC concluded. Why? Because it's the
ONLY logical scenario that fits the evidence in this case.
>> "The back wound was lower than the entry wound in the neck..."
An outright falsehood....and everybody knows it. Anybody can see (and
test for themselves) the alignment of the back wound in relation to the
throat wound. The throat (exit) wound is positively lower than the back
(entry) wound.....without a sliver of a doubt.
But keep believing otherwise. It's better for your CT image. (Until May
2007 anyway.)

No, I look at the evidence... and the *EVIDENCE* is against the SBT. The
locations, the angles, the fact that according to the best medical evidence,
there was no transit, the fact that the best medical evidence is that the neck
wound is an entrance, not exit... etc.

It's not. It's merely historical truth. The WC was working on a 3 shots, 3
hits model until Tague was forced on them from the outside... it was clearly
their goal to simply ignore Tague.

It's a silly and unsupportable belief.

Yep. The WC, despite their implication that the SBT is only probable, *MUST*
have the SBT to allow only one assassin.
>But, unlike CTers, the WC (when everything was examined and taken into

Actually, no. It was *Spector*, not the WC. For many of the WC commissioners
never believed the SBT. Quite probably, should a poll be taken, many of the
staff didn't believe it either. They weren't stupid.
>plus no bullets left in Kennedy's

No bullet left in the back because it fell out. All of this SBT nonsense
depends on transit, and you can't prove transit. You can't even *presume*
transit, as the best medical evidence is that there WAS NONE! This probably
explains the missing photo showing the interior of the chest - it would have
shown a *lack* of damage consistent with a transiting bullet... and so, had to
disappear.
Tell us, Davey-boy, who had control of the photographs?
>All of that added up to one easily-determinable conclusion -- A single

An "easily-determinable" conclusion that wasn't determined for months... and
never subscribed to by the FBI or SS.

No, it isn't. It fits the coverup.
You see, you can't refute the coverup ... this is why you refuse to respond to
the simple questions that reveal it.
Coward, aren't you?
>> The back wound was lower than the entry wound in the neck...

The death certificate doesn't know it.
The clothes don't know it.
The eyewitnesses don't know it.

This is an issue that David distort's beyond any semblance of reality.
In fact, he cannot account for the source of the first shot, which
apparently, hit the pavement around Z150. Neither can he account for
the shot that struck Main st and resulted in Tague's minor wound.
Our best evidence suggests that CE-399 was not the same bullet that
some of us believe, passed through both victims at Z223. So, that one
is up in the air too.
And if David actually, gave a damn about any of this, I would be glad
to show him that the trajectory for a SBT shot at 223, is infinitely
better from the third floor of the Daltex, where Braden was
discovered, than it is from the alleged snipers nest.
In fact, the ONLY bullet that can plausibly be linked to the alleged
murder weapon is the one at 312. And even that, only suggests that MC
ammunition was used - not necessarily, the alleged murder weapon.
So, David's grand total of shots that are linked to Oswald beyond
reasonable doubt, is a flat ZERO.
Of course, that won't stop him from repeating this bogus claim over
and over again.

Nonsense.
I don't think that is when they supposedly found a full bullet. That was
supposed to be when they removed the body from the casket and both FBI
agents were there taking notes.
I believe Hoover made the mistake of saying that it rolled out of the head.
Big ol' LOL here!
Obviously, Mr. Marsh has never seen the excellent 1993 PBS-TV
documentary "Who Was Lee Harvey Oswald?" .... Because within that
broadcast, Dale Myers appears on camera as an obvious "CTer". He speaks
specifically in that program of his own belief that Oswald could not
possibly have travelled the 0.9-mile distance from his roominghouse at
1026 N. Beckley Avenue to the site of J.D. Tippit's murder near the
corner of Tenth Street and Patton Avenue in the allotted amount of time
required for LHO to "meet" Tippit (approx. 13-15 minutes).
Myers goes on to explain to the PBS audience of his (Myers') belief
that Oswald must have been "driven" to 10th & Patton by an accomplice,
instead of hoofing it on his own.
Now, that PBS appearance in 1993 wasn't talking about the JFK killing
specifically (or the SBT)....but it's obvious that Mr. Myers was NOT in
the "LN" camp as of the time that program aired....and he's ON CAMERA
saying so.
So much for Dale's "pretending". Or does Tony Marsh think that Dale
Myers WAS only "pretending" to be in the CT camp when he went on camera
and talked of how Oswald must have surely had an accomplice to drive
him to 10th Street?
If THAT was a "ruse" on Mr. Myers part...he ought to get some credit
(or some award) for "thinking in advance".
>> "Who has a theory of 3 assassins causing the SBT wounds? Name please. Book?"
There is none. And that's part of the overall CT problem re. their
anti-SBT stance (quite obviously). No CTer ever seems to want to
explain in bullet-by-bullet detail what "REALLY DID HAPPEN", in lieu of
the SBT.
Most CTers maintain the blanket belief of "The SBT Is Impossible" and
just leave it laying right there....with no substitute in its place.
Funny, isn't it? I always thought the two men WERE wounded in SOME
fashion by bullets on 11/22/63. Guess not though. Must have been a
dream (kind of like "Bobby In The Shower" or something.)
But it doesn't matter at all if a specific person has written a
specific "3 Gunmen" anti-SBT theory --- because whether it's been given
utterance by an author or not, a THREE-GUNMEN anti-SBT theory is
REQUIRED of conspiracists if the SBT is wrong. (Mark Fuhrman's wild LN
guesses notwithstanding.) .....
Because most CTers have the JFK throat wound as an ENTRY hole. (Gunman
#1.)
Then there's JFK's back wound. (Gunman #2.)
Then there's JBC's back wound (being sustained at a time, per virtually
every CTer I've ever encountered, which prohibits Gunman #2 from also
firing this shot into JBC). (Gunman #3.)
Ballistics tests done for the WC. Nor can you show how they are flawed, so your
assertion is just silly.
As I state just below, this is quite clear to anyone who takes a moment to think
it through.
Nope. Play with your own strawman...
And you're a liar. But we already knew that, didn't we?
Michael Griffith puts it better than me:
* Apparently only two shots were fired from the sixth-floor window of the Book
Depository Building. An original FBI evidence sheet and a Dallas police property
clerk's invoice both record the receipt of two shells and one live missile from
the the sniper's nest. Recently, an FBI evidence envelope was discovered that
contained the two shells and the live round. The envelope also contained photos,
and these photos show two shells and a live bullet. Also, an 11/22/63 DPD Crime
Scene Section document has surfaced that likewise says only two shells were
found in the sixth-floor sniper's nest. This evidence strongly suggests that
either the police initially were only going to admit to finding two shells or,
somewhat less likely, that only two shells were found to begin with. The third
shell, which only surfaced several days later, has a dent in it and could not
have been used to fire a bullet during the assassination. (It's interesting to
note that originally Bonnie Ray Williams, who was standing next to the southeast
fifth-floor window, directly beneath the sixth-floor sniper's nest with only
thin floor boarding separating him from the sniper's nest, said he only heard
TWO shots. Howard Brennan, who was standing on the street below in a location
that was almost directly beneath the sixth-floor window, likewise only heard two
shots from that window. So if only two shots were fired from the sixth-floor
window, someone else must have fired the other shot or shots.)
I rather doubt if Tony will retract. But he's a liar, as most WCR apologists
end up being.

Wouldn't matter. When you control the investigation, you get to present what
you want to present.
We *KNOW* that eyewitnesses saw LHO down on the 1st & 2nd floor from about 11:50
onward, and if a *real* investigation had been performed, their might well be a
tremendous amount of further information available that places him beyond all
doubt.
Once again, Tony, you're a liar. Please tell lurkers here exactly how much
money he had on him when arrested... then tell lurkers here exactly how much he
allegedly paid for 'his' rifle.
But you won't... because it would reveal what a liar you are.

Catching a ride would not make someone an "accomplice", and Dale Myers is
obviously looking at only one bit of contradictory evidence for Oswald being
involved in the Tippit killing.
This certainly would *NOT* qualify someone as a CT'er... You'll have to do a
lot better than this...

Untrue. A number of examples have been provided... and it doesn't matter how
many times I mention them, LNT'ers will keep trotting out this factoid.
But we *knew* that you're a liar, Davey-boy.

Other than the obvious one... that there were multiple shooters.
Also -- Ben has never once presented any type of anti-SBT theory that
is either believable or logical or the slightest bit doable (except in
a certain kook's orbs). But if Ben thinks he has....then I guess it
must be true.
May 2007, Ben. Less than a year away.
Gird 'em.
Notice, everyone, that Davey-boy couldn't refute my arguments - so rather than
respond to them, he merely reiterates his position.
How cowardly!

Yep... more than one shooter.

Presumably this is the newest asserted publish date for Bugliosi's book... I
never can seem to get you to confirm this.
You won't be able to refute what CT'ers here say about Bugliosi's book - should
it ever come out.
>Gird 'em.
So, Judyth's book just came out. Where is Bugliosi's book? You
originally promised it for release this year. Then March 2007. Now May
2007. Maybe June 2019?
What did Dale Myers ever say or publish that you think means he was once
a conspiracy believer? Quotes please.
That doubt says nothing about the JFK killing being a conspiracy.

I did not say that he was pretending anything then. Just that he is now

Not necessarily Myers, but there have been a few people who pretended to

You may need three gunmen to account for ALL the wounds, but your

Not necessarily. Connally's back wound could conceivably have come at
the same time as Kennedy's. I don't happen to believe that is possible,
but many conspiracy believers do. Remember Humes's solution pre-SBT had
one bullet going through Kennedy and Connally's torso.
*I* never "promised" a darn thing. Why do you say I promised something
in this regard??
The prior release dates I have stated were obviously tentative dates,
as anyone could easily have detected.
This certainly is NOT my own experience when talking with CTers. Almost
ALL of the CTers I've talked to believe that the throat wound was an
entry wound. Very nearly 100%. Your "minority" thing here is crazy and
almost certainly untrue (based on what most CTers want to believe).
And it makes sense (in a CTer's eyes) to not want to accept the throat
wound as an exit -- because to do so (and use any common sense at all)
is to believe the SBT. Because if that bullet exited JFK's
throat.....it had two places to go (via the WC and via ordinary common
sense as well) -- it had to go into the car and cause obvious damage
(which it didn't), or it had to go into John Connally sitting right in
front of Kennedy....which it most certainly did.
If Gunman #1 was responsible for a T&T wound on JFK (with that bullet
not striking Governor Connally)....WHERE IS THE BULLET? Where did it
go? And where is the limo damage that certainly would have been caused
by that bullet?
In addition to the obvious pro-CT slant to his words in the 1993 PBS-TV
documentary .... there's also the info provided by Dale on his website
that indicates he was once a CTer, including lecturing at universities
as an "outspoken conspiracy theorist"......
http://jfkfiles.com/jfk/html/faq.htm
Are you now going to insinuate that everything written on that webpage
re. Dale having been a CTer prior to the mid-90s is nothing but a pack
of lies?
>Mr. Myers was obviously exhibiting "I'm A CTer" qualities/tendencies
>when he appeared in the '93 PBS special. Only a CT kook (i.e., Ben)
>would think otherwise.
Myers is a chronic liar and a phony. He is also a rather desperate
wannabe Posner.
Back in '94 he wrote an article in an Amiga magazine that was almost
word for word, taken straight out of *case closed*.
Much of his "animation" is totally bogus. In fact, I challenged him in
this newsgroup over and over again, to post the angles he used to
create the appearance that the 223 shot aligned perfectly with the 6th
floor alleged SN.
He evaded me every time, demanding that I buy his video which of
course, never mentioned those angles, either.
You can read our exchange in Google groups, right up to the point,
when he slunk out of the newsgroup, totally discredited.

There is NO question that an honest man will evade.
Oh, naturally.
Any LNer who exhibits some common sense is always regarded as a "liar"
and/or a "phony" by a conspiracy kook. Nothing new there.
Vince Bugliosi will be so regarded by certain rabid, never-wavering CT
kooks, too. Without doubt. But to other conspiracy believers (i.e., CT
non-kooks) who haven't devoted the bulk of their lives to CT-ism re.
the JFK case, Vincent B. will change some minds. That, too, is without
question.
And why you think Mr. Myers just "created" (from whole cloth) the angle
from the SN to the limo (and through the victims) is something I guess
only you and the Lord might be privy to.....but Dale's work is all laid
out on his website. The angle through the victims back up to the point
of origin IS what it IS.....period. And it just happens to trace back
to the Oswald window.
I wonder if CTers would question Mr. Myers' credibility if he'd have
come up with a computer model that, say, produced a trajectory cone
that centered on a lower Dal-Tex floor? Or a floor in the Records
Building?
Would he be a "chronic liar" if he would have "created" those pro-CT
trajectory cones? Prob'ly not, huh?
But since he's an LNer who supports the SBT from the SN, he's a "liar"
and a "phony".
CTer logic belongs on the Moon. (The dark side of it.)
That crazy, 89 percent of the country that is just loony as hell!
But if your little band of hardcore zealots are so correct, why is it
that all you guys can do is run, run, run, run??
Why do you have to continually snip facts and evidence, rather than
deal with it logically?
Robert Harris
There is NO question that an honest man will evade.
Tell us, is this another "tentative" date? Or can we actually expect to see
something published *this* time?
Of course not. You're speaking to a LNT'er who *claims* to be a CT'er.
Why you'd accept anything he says about other CT'ers without checking simply
shows how well you know Tony.

"Very nearly 100%"... probably the only true statement you've made in a long
time, Davey-boy.

Or it simply went flying out of the limo. For CT'ers aren't stuck, as you are,
with a single assassin firing from the 6th floor.
But it's nonsense to even discuss it. For the best evidence *BASED ON A MEDICAL
EXAMINATION* is that the neck wound was an entry. It's simply speculation based
*after* the autopsy that it was anything other than what Dr. Perry and others at
Parkland believed it to be.
Second, you have to have a bullet *transit* JFK's body... and there is credible
evidence that this never happened. The SBT is a dying attempt to save the
LNT'er theory. It was 'dying' even before the WCR was published, since many of
the commissioners didn't even believe it.
>If Gunman #1 was responsible for a T&T wound on JFK (with that bullet
>not striking Governor Connally)....WHERE IS THE BULLET?
Same place that the bullet *YOU* can't find is.
>Where did it go?
File cabinet in Hoover's office. (After being recovered at Parkland and swapped
for CE399)
>And where is the limo damage that certainly would have been caused
>by that bullet?
Strawman. You assume that any shots came from the 6th floor, *AND* transited.
Have fun snipping, Davey-boy: for probably all lurkers by now know that you
can't respond to a post without snipping everything you can't answer...
>What did the caption say, Tony? Please let all the lurkers know. For once

Ah, in Ben-World photo captions are evidence.
Great work Ben.
Todd
Proven, of course, by their inability to answer simple questions concerning the
evidence, their omission of evidential matters, their dishonest snipping, etc.
>Vince Bugliosi will be so regarded by certain rabid, never-wavering CT

We've already *TOLD* you that. Didn't you believe us?
No LNT'er apologist has yet come out with a book on the topic that can't be
shown to omit evidence, and lie about the testimony.
>But to other conspiracy believers (i.e., CT

When you *start* with flawed data, you end up with flawed data.

He can't. The starting data (at the level of accuracy needed) simply doesn't
exist.

>

Wouldn't know... never spoke with him. But if he believes in the SBT, then he
certainly doesn't follow the evidence.
>CTer logic belongs on the Moon. (The dark side of it.)
Rather funny, this. To believe what the evidence tells us, rather than
speculation; Davey-boy believes is nutty.
The answer to Question #1 is that the autopsists were forbidden to
dissect the throat wound by their military superiors. Why? Because such
standard exploration would reveal that the bullet entered from the front
and passed thru the right lobe of the thyroid gland.
The answer to Question #2 is obvious. Because if allowed, normal
exploration of the wound would reveal the real direction of the bullet,
and perhaps even more importantly, the true nature of the bullet. If
the shot were truly from the rear, there would be no need for the
restrictions imposed on the pathologists.
Finally, to answer the inevitable LN question of where did the shot go?
Recall that Jerrold Custer called the autopsists' attention to small
metal fragments in the mid-cervical region Xray (an Xray now
conveniently absent from the records), but as he says, he was told to
"mind my own business".
Interesting that no LNT'er is willing to provide the captions. And yes, they
*are* evidence.
