If a bullet didn't go through JFK, then exactly how did Connally get hit?

[Mitch Todd]

This isn't difficult Tony, how could Connally be shot from behind without CE399 first passing through Kennedy?

Even if it wasn't CE399, a bullet passing through JFK from the entry in the back through to the throat wound is going to hit something in the limousine. The only hole that fits is the one next to John Connally's scapula. It's worth remembering that CE399 and the SBT are independent of each other.

How do you know CE 399 went through JC and that it struck JFK first?

This is what happens when no one challenges the conclusions of the WC.

"Although Tomlinson was not certain whether the bullet came from the Connally stretcher or the adjacent one, the Commission has concluded that the bullet came from the Governor's stretcher."

Tony, why are you so afraid to confront the evidence?

Connally was hit from behind but Kennedy was in the way, how was Connally shot?

Btw I've altered the OP so you can't keep squirming out of giving an answer.

Was JFK "in the way" of the bullet that hit JC if the bullet came from another location from above and behind?

Yes that's the question and since we know the path through Connally and the relative positions of both men, how could Connally's back bullet possibly have missed Kennedy?

How do you know the origin of the bullet that hit JC?

Tony, stay on target.

How was Connally struck when Kennedy was in the way?

How do you know the origin of the bullet that hit JC?

It's a very basic question, Tony. Connally got hit, so:

(a) - did he get hit from his front and the bullet travelled on an upward trajectory exiting through his back?
(b) - did he get hit from behind and the bullet travelled on a downward trajectory exiting through his front?

If (a) is correct was the shooter crouched down under the floor mats

or

If (b) is correct how did the bullet hit Connally yet miss the POTUS altogether?

Basically, where was the shooter?

Thanks Steve.

Also of interest are these pictures, is there a clear path through Connally which doesn't hit Kennedy?











Dale Myers animation based on the Zapruder film, a bunch of technical data and photos of the Limo through Dallas was a very accurate simulation and shows that any bullet that passed through Connally had to get past Kennedy.

None of those pictures prove that CE 399 hit anyone.

And none of your replies answers the question posed in the OP, go and Troll someone else's thread.
