Those mysterious frontal gunmen

[Royell Storing]

Lance make an excellent point. The usual lame counter is for "Cross Fire". But "Cross Fire" is the tactic of the few against the many. Not for trying to kill one person.

If Kennedy ducks down, he is no longer vulnerable to a rearward shooter but he is also no longer vulnerable to a frontal shooter. If you miss the first shot, you have screwed up and if Kennedy ducks, you have no real shot.

   With respect to the "ducks down" stuff that you mentioned above, you are radically underestimating the elevated position atop the Grassy Knoll vs Elm St.

But you do not deal with Lance's main point. Why make things complicated for yourself by using a frontal shooter and then have to fake the evidence. It makes no sense.

   You need to open your mind. What makes you believe all shooters would be working together?

 That is Not a "BROWN Cardigan", no matter how hard you guys try to make people believe that. And on top of that, you can see the man's bare arm from the wrist to up beyond the elbow. This "brown cardigan" mantra is right in line with trying to convince people there are 3 men standing at the bottom of The Steps on Willis 5. Total baloney.

One should never open one's mind to the point one's brain falls out.

If there were multiple shooters was it by coincidence they showed up at the same place?

If brought in, does it make sense for the 'boss' would perfer them to be unaware of each other? That one missed shot might freeze another shooter as he would be wondering what the hell is going on?

   You must be unfamiliar with the CIA and FBI using the "compartmentalize" approach to everything they do. The right hand Never knows what the left hand is doing. It's Not my job to school ya, but "You're Welcome" just the same.

 This is the man on the steps, next to Hudson.  He is not wearing anything white except whatever he is wearing beneath his sweater/jacket, white T-shirt or white sports/dress shirt. 
This frame is from the Darnell film.  He's standing with his wife and baby in front of the park bench where they were seated prior to the man going down the stairs. Note the mans posture.  It's identical to the man seen in Willis slide 5 standing next to Hudson.

I love it! I start a thread about how the very notion of frontal gunmen makes no rational sense, and by page 2 we're discussing multiple compartmentalized shooters and Brown Cardigan Man! I believe this is known as "business as usual" at an internet forum ...

Well, hell, maybe I'll invent a narrative to go with Oatmeal-Faced Alien Man and launch an entirely new Conspiracy Factoid.
