The Assassination and Mrs. Paine

[Bill Chapman]

When was I ever “adamant that people use their real names”?

A lot of that goes on here.

_ It follows that your endless quotation marks enclosing Richard's name and words such as 'expert' etc pretty much signals your intent to cast doubt on practically everything under the sun, including those who manage to leave thorns in your side.

And why should it matter to you if someone like Richard is using their real name or not? Many discussion forums like google groups etc allow fake names because of the dangers (ID theft, for instance) inherent in going online in the first place. Why begrudge an individual his right to enhanced security?

Funny how in all that verbiage, you didn’t manage to answer the question.

The question has been answered, along with a bonus.

Would Oswald have admitted his guilt?

Some CTers harp on why Oswald didn't confess to the crime right from the start if the entire purpose of the assassination was to garner attention for himself.  They ask why he would deny his guilt etc.  Conflating historical credit with legal responsibility for the crime.  Oswald knew he had pulled the trigger and changed history but had no desire to help the police prosecute him for the crime.   Of course, Oswald was also getting plenty of attention from the entire world as the suspected assassin with the press clamoring for his every comment.  He also had no idea that he only had less than 48 hours to live.  For all Oswald knew, he had years to play cat and mouse on the topic.  And the only chip he had left to play were the details of the crime including his own motivation.  A source of historical curiosity that the authorities would want to know.  He could trade that for saving his skin from the electric chair.  Then, like James Earl Ray, spend the remainder of his life exploiting the gullible conspiracy types for attention and favors while in prison.  Forever suggesting he was playing the role of some master spy or being framed.

"Richard's" mindreading skills underwhelm.

It shouldn't, but you should really ask "Richard" as he is constantly claiming I am using a fake name, that I am really Roger Collins who doesn't even post or is a member here and recently that I am Otto Beck. On top of all that he's also extremely preoccupied with me living in Europe. So, if anybody could tell you why it should matter or not, it would be "Richard". Ask him!
