Are there any "researchers" here who started out as LNs but who are now CTs?

[Tom Graves]

The predicament for people like me is that there is no neutral ground to dwell on; one either qualifies as a LN or a CT, an objective, open minded approach is very hard to maintain. Yes, I am critical of the Report but also of many of the conspiracy books.

The 'overwhelming evidence' you say convinced you that Oswald assassinated the President hasn't convinced me. At least not completely. The unfortunate fact that the Dallas police allowed the suspect to get lynched prevented a trial, during which many of the questions I have could have been cleared up.--JVDW

Verily.

Stand your ground. Ignore the contentious types who soon move to ridicule or make derogatory comments in JFKA discussions (LN'ers and CT'ers). 

You are entitled to your observations. Indeed, there is room for reasonable doubt regarding official and various CT accounts of the JFKA. And yes, some CT versions are real laughers, or inspired by ideology or ethnic biases. 

My read on the Z-film is that Gov. JBC was struck ~Z-295, which is less than one second from the strike on JFK at Z-313.


Connally: I was knocked over, just doubled over by the force of the bullet. It went in my back and came out my chest about 2 inches below and the left of my right nipple. The force of the bullet drove my body over almost double and when I looked, immediately I could see I was just drenched with blood. (1 HSCA 42)[/b][/i]

The above happens ~Z-295.

There is the additional curiosity of the entry wound on the dorsal (wristwatch) side on JBC's right wrist---from a bullet that first passed through JBC's chest? His surgeon, Dr. Shaw, thought that was inexplicable. Try touching the face of a wristwatch to your chest. I advise all readers herein to do this.

Then...we see JBC holding his Stetson hat at Z-272, in his right hand. The WC says he had been shot though the right wrist by a large tumbling slug (the Western Cartridge slug is 1 1/4 inches long)---but that JBC maintained his grip on the hat even after being shot through the wrist.

I have reasonable doubts about the above scenario. How can anyone not have doubts?

The WC version also contends, after being shot through the chest, JBC did a 180-degree-turn in his seat to look for JFK.

I have reasonable doubts about that too.

In short, there are grounds to suspect two gunsels in the JFKA, given that it appears one gunsel (likely LHO) was armed with the M-C.

Do you believe three shots were fired from the Carcano that was found on the sixth floor?

That's a really, really bad read.

It happened long before Z295. What do you think caused all the gyrations JBC was going through between Z225 and Z295?

There is the additional curiosity of the entry wound on the dorsal (wristwatch) side on JBC's right wrist---from a bullet that first passed through JBC's chest? His surgeon, Dr. Shaw, thought that was inexplicable. Try touching the face of a wristwatch to your chest. I advise all readers herein to do this.

Shaw was not a forensic medical examiner. Why would you expect him to figure that out?

Then...we see JBC holding his Stetson hat at Z-272, in his right hand. The WC says he had been shot though the right wrist by a large tumbling slug (the Western Cartridge slug is 1 1/4 inches long)---but that JBC maintained his grip on the hat even after being shot through the wrist.

He held onto his hat after Z295 too. How do you explain that?

I have reasonable doubts about the above scenario. How can anyone not have doubts?

The WC version also contends, after being shot through the chest, JBC did a 180-degree-turn in his seat to look for JFK.

Is there a specific way a person is supposed to act after being shot through the chest?

I have reasonable doubts about that too.

In short, there are grounds to suspect two gunsels in the JFKA, given that it appears one gunsel (likely LHO) was armed with the M-C.

One gunsel is supported by evidence. The other gunsel is supported by speculation and imagination.
