JFK Hands Never Go To-Or Toward-His Throat

[Lance Payette]

It's typical of your 'open-minded' approach. So is the way you just disappeared from the discussion on that thread once this evidence was presented to you, only for you to pop up elsewhere spewing the same discredited nonsense.

Dr. Payette does not "disappear." Dr. Payette is something substantially less than obsessed, becomes bored with tedious discussions and tedious people, yawns and moves on.

You have not demonstrated to Dr. Payette's satisfaction that anything has been "discredited" anywhere other than your own mind, which Dr. Payette declines to accept as a viable appeal to authority.

Would this perhaps be my final entry on the thread I "disappeared" from? Or is there a different thread from which I "disappeared"?

Yep, kinda what I thought: "John C mode," as it shall henceforth be known. "I decide what the evidence shows."

Is English your second language? "Right in front" and "almost directly in front" are "two completely different things?" I somehow missed that nuance in my 50+ years of writing and editing professionally. We are talking about a vehicle passing women on a curb a few feet away, and you insist "right in front" and "almost directly in front" are two "completely different things." Ho-kay ...

My "truly sad attempt" to "pass them off" is yet another example of "the dumbness" that "plagues" my every post? If you operate at this level of anger over an internet discussion, it's a wonder you haven't popped a vein or two - or perhaps you have? Do your wife and dog stay out of the room while you are spewing spittle over the keyboard lest you vent your fury on them? Jesus.

Dr. Payette, having dealt with umpteen fellow lawyers trying to wiggle out of a faux pas, would hazard a guess that you were caught with your pants down (figuratively speaking, or maybe not) and have seized upon the massive difference between "right in front" and "almost directly in front" in a bizarre and comical effort to save face because you simply can't stand to be wrong. Put your pants back on - no one really cares.

It's called waving. After Z195 he stopped waving and began lowering his right arm, a movement he continued until Z226 when both arms suddenly raised dramatically. I don't see anything odd about it.

So after smiling and waving, he assumed the grimace just for Zapruder at z225 and not an 18th of a second earlier?:



How do you know that the movement of his arms at z226 is immediately after he is shot?  Is it not possible that his sensation of something being wrong might have occurred in two stages - the second being when he found he couldn't breathe normally?

There is definitely a change in his hand, arm and head between z187 and z207:

We don't know if JFK was grimacing in Z224 because his face wasn't visible.

How do you know that the movement of his arms at z226 is immediately after he is shot?

Because I am capable of exercising common sense. Reflex actions occur almost immediately after the stimulus.

Reflex actions do not occur in stages.

Yes there is. He stopped waving at the people to his right and started turning to face the front.
