What makes you think Brennan saw Oswald, or that Oswald made any shots?

I have never bothered to read up much on conspiracy theories that Oswald didnt fire shot-1 & shot-2, ie that there was someone else in the TSBD, or someone from another building, or grassy knoll, or picket fence, or drain entry pit, or Greer etc. 
And i am only mildly interested in things that happened outside Dealey Plaza, or on some other day.
My (others mostly) ideas re the 6 or 7 shots fit exactly & simply with what we know (hole in floor of limo)(eg cracked w/s)(dent in chrome)(ricochets on tarmac & curbs)(Tague).
There are a few interesting puzzles questions mysteries remaining for sure, & i might spend time on these, but none of these are necessarily fatal to my theory.
I am of course very interested in anything possibly fatal to my theory. It only takes one good contradiction to sink it (or some part of it).

I debunked the Hickey debunking. In fact i found more evidence. The 2017 Bronson frame that supposedly shows Hickey sitting & holding the AR15 at 45 deg up at the time of Z313 i found  to be at Z315 (which was already known), & in fact the 2019 superior copy shows that the AR15 is swinging up quickly which confirms a shot at Z313 rather than disproving (which nobody knew).

Oswald did not fire a third shot, not even at the same time as Hickey's shot. But Oswald could have, the bullet was in position, Oswald was in position, JFK was in position, but Oswald decided to not fire. Why?  He knew that his first shot had missed. He knew that his second shot had hit. And he was satisfied. Why? 

And then he saw JFK's head explode at Z313, & he probly saw that Hickey was the shooter, & he probly realized that it was an accident.  It would have made an interesting court case, but Ruby spoiled that.

Getting back to Oswald i haven't looked into the paraffin test stuff, but i think that it aint foolproof. And fingerprint stuff. And timing of exit from TSBD. What was Oswald's escape plan, Mexico - Cuba?? But anyhow none of that stuff is of great concern. Oswald acted alone & everything fits, if u ignore 99% of the krapp coming from 99% of the witnesses.

I did read a bit of that stuff re Brennan's eyesight, & being able to see & identify Oswald in the window & in the line-up etc. Thats interesting but not critical. It probly just reinforces that the cops too wanted Oswald to go down. I skimmed over that stuff in the WC. And i dont think i have read one word of the other 2 investigations or whatever.  Everyone starts these investigations etc by writing ASSASSINATION on the front page.

Perhaps you should investigate exactly what the evidence is -- and more importantly what it is NOT -- before making blanket assumptions about who shot what.

My ideas accord with evidence. Proof would be good, but now its too late.
If we dont make assumptions then we have over 200 gunmen firing over 300 shots.
Some spectators should have been hospitalized for smoke inhalation.
The picket fence should have been pushed over by gunmen shoving each other for the best pozzy.
There must have been a crush of look-alikes & conspirators etc trying to flee up the stairs & down the stairs.
The windshield should have been blown away.
The tarmac of Elm Street should have been torn apart by bullets.
Tague should have had his head blown off.

More realistically, the guy from Ford or someone else might still have the bloody carpet from the limo. Is there a bullet hole?
If we look under the limo in the Ford Museum will we see the hole?  The floor had 1/8" steel plate installed over the top in 1964 but the hole in the thin floor pan might have been left as is.
The 6th Floor Museum might release the superior 2019 copy of the 20 Bronson frames.
Something new might turn up.  And i will go along with all of the evidence.

My idea that Hickey fired an accidental auto burst of 4 or 5 shots is based on the evidence.
The bullet hole in the limo shows that Oswald's shot-1 did ricochet offa the signal arm guy rod.
Shot-2 i have ignored except to point out that it happened at Z218.

I am impressed by Connally's lapel moving in Z224. But that had to be due to backdraft, the lapel being half pushed out by the shot at Z218. The lapel is black against a black background hence the film cant show that it is half out for 6 frames.
[edit][1sept2021][The slug exited a long way away from the lapel]
[edit 1june2022][later in 2021 i found an article that detailed tests by Latimer that explained the delay of the lapel flip.]

And whether Oswald fired is not necessarily fatal to any of my theory. Who is a side issue.
If anyone had any evidence at all that my theory cant be correct then i would like to know. Any at all, that makes any word of my theory impossible or non-correct, or even highly unlikely.
Every bit of my  theory is supported by evidence.
And no evidence contradicts any of it .

Witness statements are probly not real evidence, just opinions, but there must be some truth in there somewhere.  They remind me of that old joke...
Sir, i have good news & i have bad news.
Captain. Whats the bad news?
All that we could find to eat is camel poo.
Captain. Whats the good news?
There's tons of it.

Re my evidence & my assumptions re Brennan's actions, i have now read excerpts from his book & i can add that when he hid behind the solid part of the wall he lay on the what he called ground. I immediately thought aha fibbing again, it had to be concrete, but it was indeed ground (ie grass), the concrete footpath is further over, & there is a few feet of grass.
[edit 1june2022][modern photos show that the grass has now been replaced with concrete.]

The bullet hole doesn't show that Oswald did anything.

Yes, but the who is only a side issue. I mainly talk about when where how etc.  Yesterday i was reading more witness statements & there are mentions of other men on the 6th floor.  I reckon that many witnesses are somehow mistaken. 

Smoke at the picket fence is a serious issue. I think that Hickey's say 5 shot auto burst raised dust offa leaves of bushes & trees, especially with the aid of the echo offa the fence (which aint a picket fence)(its solid, no gaps), & the carpark was dusty gravel not tarmac.  There is a good explanation for everything. Lower leaves would have more dust. And the echo is low down.
Even on the 5th floor they mention dust falling from above due to the percussion of Oswald's 2 shots.

If it's just a side issue, why do you keep referring to them as "Oswald's shots"?
