The Ed Forum is having a total Meltdown and chicken bones!

The EdForum is having a total meltdown (and chicken for lunch)

So, therefore, what you're really saying is that if a person (like, say, me) decides to base his conclusion on where all the evidence leads (i.e., straight into the lap of Lee H. Oswald), that conclusion is JUST as crazy as the Greer-did-it BS, right?

Ooooookay.

See, we are getting along already!
You just said "ok" or "OooooKay" hmmm!
I put 5 o's, I think you put 1 Cap O + 5 o's= 6 o's.
Now David, should I worry about 5 or 6 o's, I mean, who's really counting anyway?   
Grant me a pass with the "JFK common sense rule"?
You know that rule where reasonable doubt can be dismissed by something like this

Could it possibly be that Arnold Rowland was mistaken and it was the 5th floor that he saw the 'balding negro'? I mean, there's one right there:

Matthew, Jarman and Norman did not get to the fifth floor at the time Rowland claimed to see him.

Thanks Colin - that chalks that one off. (Just like to make sure I cover the obvious ones first). Thanks again.

Well Greer was driving the getaway car, Dave. And he left the scene after the last shots.

Oswald left the scene shortly afterwards too (when it was chaos and nobody knew what the hell happened); but he wanted to see a movie. Yes, he wasn't interested in what happened; he had to go see that darned movie.

If I my sarcasm was any heavier this post would have fallen through the floor to the center of the Earth.

The entirety of the evidence is from the Dallas Police,

That’s not true. A lot of the conflicting evidence comes from the Dallas County Sheriff deputies (of Mauser fame) who I believe were told to stand down in the investigation.

how can you tell when the Dallas Police were telling the truth and when were they lying?

How can you tell when anyone is telling the truth or lying? The preponderance of the testimony evidence is that a bag and bones were on a box next to the SN.

I saw what I thought was a man standing back about 15 feet from the windows and was holding in his arms what appeared to be a hi [sic] powered rifle because it looked like it had a scope on it. He appeared to be holding this at a parade rest sort of position. I mentioned this to my wife and merely made the remark that it must be the secret service [sic] men. This man appeared to be a white man and appeared to have a light colored shirt on, open at the neck. He appeared to be of slender build and appeared to have dark hair.

Not that observation. This one:

Mr. SPECTER - All right.
You have described seeing someone in another window hanging out. Would you draw a circle and put an "A" beside the window where you say you saw someone hanging out. That is on Exhibit No. 356.

(Witness marking.)

Mr. SPECTER - At about what time was it that you observed someone hanging out of the window that you have marked as window "A"?
Mr. ROWLAND - Again about 12:15 just before I noticed the other man.
Mr. SPECTER - You have marked the double window there. Would you draw the arrow in the red pencil indicating specifically which window it was.

(Witness marking.)

Mr. SPECTER - Will you describe with as much particularity as you can what that man looked like?
Mr. ROWLAND - It seemed to me an elderly Negro, that is about all. I didn't pay very much attention to him.
