I would like to add a comment that includes pictures but I don't see any way to do it. Could someone plus give me a one minute block of instruction on how to do it, thanks.

If a webpage has a picture you want to show, just bracket by leading with the 5 letters “”, with the webpage in-between. Don’t include the quotes and I do not add any spaces.

Then, before posting, instead of clicking “Post”, click “Preview” to see if it works.

If you cannot get “” to work, try “”…””. People will have to click on the click to see it, but it is another option. Often only “”…”” is the only option for large webpages.

Go to “imgbb.com” – ImbBB – Upload Image – Free Image Hosting.

Create an account for yourself. As I recall they take your email address and immediately email which will give you instructions how out to pick an account name and a password. It costs nothing.

Once you have an account, it would be best to create an “Album” like “JFK Assassination” and then upload the file on your computer to the server. I think you should set its properties to public.

Once uploaded, it will give you some filename like:

https://ibb.co/RandomFileName

And you put into your post:

[img]https://ibb.co/RandomFileName[/imb]


It takes some figuring but it’s doable. Write down you account name and password so you can go back to it.

Most witnesses heard BANG ... ... ... BANG ... BANG.

“There was a longer pause between the first and second shots than there was between the second and third shots,” testified mayor Earle Cabell

Senator Ralph Yarborough recalled, “ . . . to me there seemed to be a long time between the first and second shots, a much shorter time between the second and third shots.”

Which it seems to me is fairly accurately portrayed in the Zapruder film. A shot from behind, momentarily moving the head forwards, and another shot from the fence/wall location sending the head backwards/to the left.

Which it seems to me is fairly accurately portrayed in the Zapruder film. A shot from behind, momentarily moving the head forwards, and another shot from the fence/wall location sending the head backwards/to the left.

CECIL AULT, Deputy District Court Clerk, Dallas District Court, 505 Main Street, advised that on November 22, 1963 he had put up the shades of the windows in the courtroom of Judge HENRY KING, Dallas District Court, in order to look through the windows onto Main Street to observe the Presidential motorcade as it came down Main Street. Mr. AULT observed the president pass the courthouse on Main Steet turning onto Houston and observed the President's automobile as it moved down Houston to the intersecton of Houston and Elm Streets where the Presidential motorcade turned the corner onto Elm Street. Mr. AULT heard three loud reports which Mr. AULT immediately recognized as shots from a high-powered rifle. He noted that the first and second shots sounded to him close together and the third shot was spaced more after the second shot, the first two shots sounding close enough to be from an automatic rifle. Mr. ULT could not tell from what direction the rifle shots came.


BREHM said that a third shot followed and that all three shots were relatively close together. BREHM stated that he was in military service and he has had experience with bolt-action rifles, and he expressed the opinion that the three shots were fired just about as quickly as an individual can maneuver a bolt-action rifle, take aim, and fire three shots.


Mr. CABELL - Well, I would put it this way. That approximately 10 seconds elapsed between the first and second shots, with not more than 5 seconds having elapsed until the third one.


Mr. BELIN - And what's your best recollection now as to the amount of time between shots?
Mr. COUCH - Well, I would say the longest time would be 5 seconds, but it could be from 3 to 5.
Mr. BELIN - And would this be true between the first and the second shots as well as between the second and the third - or would there have been a difference?
Mr. COUCH - As I recall, the time sequence between the three were relatively the same.


Mr. BELIN - The shots seemed to be how far apart?
Mr. FISCHER - That's hard to say. I've been thinking about that. And--uh--I'd guess--3 to 4 seconds.
Mr. BELIN - Was that between the first and the second or between the second and the third?
Mr. FISCHER - Between both. As far as I can remember, the shots were evenly paced.
