"As I have demonstrated, it is perfectly possible for Oswald to have arrived back at the rooming house before 1pm." dean o meara
you demonstrated ? just how did you do that ? . claiming and proving are not the same thing . your demonstration starts with the official OSWALD LEFT THE DEPOSITORY VIA THE FRONT DOOR AT 12.33 scenario of which there is no proof . in fact the evidence IE known witnesses on the steps and outside the building etc would tend to dispute such a notion .i asked you already about this , and you did not answer . what proof can you provide ? .
as i have said now several times i am going by what roberts said and by looking at all the evidence post 12.30 , and the warren commissions time trials etc .
yes its not unreasonable for you to say ITS NOT IMPOSSIBLE that he can have arrived pre 1pm .but how probable is it ? . and does such an assertion go with facts and evidence ? .
claiming and proving are not the same thing I've never claimed to have proved anything. You are introducing this concept of proof.
I posted a "thought experiment", a series of reasonable assumptions based on Oswald leaving the TSBD as a desperate man on the run. He may have been an innocent man going to watch the movies but that is not what my thought experiment was about.
There is zero proof for what time Oswald left the TSBD building, or for what time he might have caught the bus or the taxi [if he did].
Equally, there is zero proof that Oswald reached the rooming house after 1pm as you keep asserting.
Roberts was guessing at the time and she says as much.
I have not proven anything but I have demonstrated that it is perfectly possible that Oswald reached the rooming house before 1pm.
You might not accept this as it may suit you not to do so. That's none of my business.
But at least you now concede that it is possible Oswald reached the rooming house before 1pm.
That's all I was trying to illustrate.
