Gov. John Connally Grips His White Stetson Hat at Z-272

How could it when it occurred half-a-second before Zapruder resumed filming (after a 17-second pause)?

Just a thought but is there a chance Meyers and Holland and the so-called experts were just luring you in to make you look bad. It is so easy to rule this out as being factual that it is hard to believe anyone could fall for this absurd theory. Yet you and Corbett took it all in hook, line, and sinker.

You seem to think you are in the mainstream here. The reality is you are the outlier. You are a one-percenter. That's about how many people think there were only two shots. Far more people think there were more than 3 shots than think there were only 2. From the beginning, the earliest reports said 3 shots were fired at JFK's motorcade. That was the consensus of the people who were in Dealey Plaza. Specific witnesses, JBC, Bennett, Williams, Jarman, and Norman said there where 3 shots. The physical evidence indicates there were 3 shots. For some idiotic reason, you choose to believe Oswald started with an spent shell in the chamber even though there is no evidence of that, only your silly assumption.

I agree that the preponderance of evidence is that there were three shots.  However, according to the HSCA there were at least 17 people who said there were two shots or could recall only two shots and 7 said two or three shots. 6 said four shots, 7 heard 1, 5, 6, or 8 shots.  9 were not sure how many shots there were.

You would like to count all those who said they heard three shots with two rapid shots at the end as having heard only two shots. That may be what Jack is suggesting.

It is so obvious. Maybe don't try so hard to solve a simple problem. Everyone believes there were two shots. Prove there was a third shot. You question the reliability of witnesses but only based on your limited reasoning.

Maybe the answer lies in the practice of dry firing a rifle.

If the witness statements are too much for you to analyze, then how about stop torturing them.

There are 50 eyewitnesses who stated there were two shots and another 20 eyewitnesses stating the second shot was the headshot followed by a shot after the car accelerated. A study of the rapid double shot at the end would only serve to increase the number of two shot witnesses.
