The First Shot

[Tom Graves]

Wipe that egg off your weenie and pull your pants back up, you're starting to embarrass yourself worse than usual.

What she got RIGHT, at least insofar as her location goes, was in 1993 and 2015. What she got absurdly, completely WRONG was MINUTES AFTER THE JFKA. If her statements in 1993 strike you as problematical, then you must think her 1963 article was correct. Hello? Or is it "Mary was soooooooo traumatized, dude, that she forgot where the hell she was and made numerous other misstatements based on being at that location, but by God she was rock-solid on her description of the shots" - hello, really, ya think?

What a bizarro. Let it go.

Dear MGFPR,

Why are you so riled up?

Since TG's OCD requires us to live with two Mary Woodward threads, I guess I will have to post my insightful contributions on both, to wit:

We have failed to mention wacky Mary's FBI interview of 12/7/63. It's clear she crossed from Houston to Elm. Nothing about the grassy knoll. It conveniently omits the timing of the second and third shots. Now she first thought the shots had come from "above and possibly behind" her. Then she thought they might have come from the overpass. All she can really say is that the shots came from above her head. She had seen five or six people on the overpass, and this may be why her "first reaction" (what?) was to look there. However, she never saw anything in the hands of those people.

She's worthless.

Dear MGFPR,

Your "throwing the baby out with the bathwater" vis-a-vis Woodward's 11/23/63 DMN article reeks, as usual, of gaslighting desperation.

She doesn't omit the timing of the second and third shots.  She says: "There seemed to be a pause of a few seconds, and then there were two more loud noises which she suddenly realized were shots..."

By mentioning a pause after the first of a few seconds and then two shots but not mentioning a similar pause between them, she provided a description that is consistent with her DMN story although with less specific detail.  Also, those words were written by the FBI. The DMN story and her 1988 THWKK clip were all her words.
