Says the guy with no evidence whatsoever.

Says the guy who took a knee at Oswald's grave

He never did explain what the problem was.

Ah yes....Tippit saw him and became suspicious because he was puking and gasping for breath after his mad dash from the rooming house, to nowhere ......  Though there was nobody with a stop watch to time that world record run.... He had ran over a mile in less time than Roger Bannister, who held the record at a couple of seconds less than four minutes.

No synchronized stopwatches/clocks anywhere in sight that day, pops

As for Oswald walking east or west on Tenth, Jimmy Burt saw the eventual killer walking west on Tenth for almost a full block until encountered by the approaching patrol car.

William Scoggins was sitting in his cab eating his lunch.  The cab was parked on Patton, facing north, right near the intersection with Tenth.  If the killer was walking east for some distance, Scoggins should have seen him.  Scoggins insisted the no one passed in front of his cab.

Scoggins is not proof that the man was not walking west to east, but it sure seems to me that Scoggins would have seen him.  Same with Markham.

Which is why we can safely assume that J.C. Bowles, who was in charge of the DPD dispatchers,  was correct when he told the HSCA that the times given verbally by the dispatchers (and thus copied in the transcripts) aren't reliable to determine the real time.

Which only tells us what is in your head.... I saw the picture too and couldn't care less about it.

The visual is more revealing of what's in the head of the guy who took the knee at Oswald's grave. And btw, who asked you what you couldn't care less about?

But if you want to make yourself usefull for once, instead of writing pointless posts, perhaps you can post here the “preponderance of evidence” that Myers refers to?
The visual of the guy taking a knee at Oswald's grave makes any man's post useful. And I personally have never used the term 'preponderance of evidence'. That's on those who do. And no 'preponderance' needed.
