Says the guy who plagiarized Bill Brown and Vince Bugliosi.

My intent wasn't to claim authorship in either case.
I apologied to Bill Brown for that particular unforced error

I recall an earlier plagiarism claim by you against me about a Bugliosi line that is arguably the most prominent line in assassination lore. In fact, I did argue that very point at the time.

When I have to correct you on something so basic, there isn't much point in saying something else because you probably wouldn't understand it anyway.
> Sticks & stones, big shot. Now stop dodging.
> The term certainly is basic to you and your species, isn't it now

But don't worry. I won't hold your limited intelligence against you.
> Still waiting for you to say something important, big shot.

Are you talking to me?

Points to Ponder:

It's impossible to replicate two very closely fired shots like the first and second shots with an old-fashioned gun as was supposedly used. I'm not a big fan of the witness statements because many people were not expecting this to happen [obviously] so they heard and saw this is not entirely accurate. But Connally swore until the day he died that the first shot was not the one that hit him. And the Z film backs this up.

Pat Speer did a good job of researching and finding that it'd be next to impossible for Oswald to have gone down the stairs immediately after the shooting and to have not been seen by one of the black co-workers. Look it up on his site.

There were shooting reenactments on a CBS TV special from back in the 60s and none of these so-called sharpshooters could replicate Oswald's amazingly accurate shooting...but equally amazing miss.

But speaking of the miss, I do speculate that the Tague "chips on the cheek" story could not be 100% accurate. I find it very hard to believe that a shot hit that far off target, causing the chips to fly up.

Oswald didn't have to match a predetermined firing time

I have no intent to claim authorship of what other people write at any time.
I apologized to Bill Brown during that period

I remember your attempt to claim plagiarism against me on a Bugliosi term that is arguably the most well-known in assassination lore. In fact, I made that exact argument at the time.
