Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

[Martin Weidmann]

An unfair and biased line-up is a one guy line-up with the guy holding the rifle with a sign around his neck that says "I did it"!
Unfortunately for the CT's, as we know the Dallas lineups was anything but and a half dozen people all got a good look at Oswald and positively identified Oswald while Oswald was outside on what looked to be a sunny day.
To allege that all these six random ordinary citizens were somehow brainwashed or whatever to convict someone that was never there, knowing full well that they were sending a man to his death, is an argument that can only come from a sad and deranged mind, no offence.

The fact that you can not conceive something like that happening, doesn't mean it couldn't have happened. History tells us that in fact it has happened in other cases far too often in the past. You only need to look at Henry Wade's record to find out.

yes sir, the guy with the cut above his eye and disheveled appearance, and protesting,was the one I saw, not the other 3 guys with combed hair and clean shirts and non cut, non bruised faces who remained silent.

Zeon, let's be serious if you saw a man that was cut up, bruised, protesting his innocence would that be enough of a reason for you to say that Oswald was the man, I'm guessing/hoping that you wouldn't and I reckon that none of your friends or relatives would knowingly send an innocent man to his death.
So why do you believe that these civilians on Tenth and Patton were any different?

Your faith in human kind is admirable, but misplaced. Under pressure to "do the right thing" people often do things they would not have done under normal circumstances.

You lot have a tendency to shave/add to time, height and weight estimates.

Dirty Little Harvey didn't have to run according to precise testing. Could have made it in 11 (+-) minutes by walking briskly according to the vid I just posted here. Just in time to bump into his destiny.

And could have been faster than that if he had had his hands out of his pockets, IMO. I walk all the time and having your hands swinging freely helps create & keep an easy momentum and encourages longer strides as well.

And by the way, I've personally found that trotting is the easiest way to maintain a speed somewhat faster than brisk walking. Oswald was seen as 'trotting' away from the scene by Markham, which suggests he might have trotted along at times while on his walking/trotting/jogging/running tour around the 'hood.

Bottom line Oswald was positively ID'd on scene.

You don't have to shave or add to time to understand that even the best ODIA time schedule is highly improbable and a near impossibility.

This wasn?t that far removed from that.

?We? being the LN zealots.

Because they were manipulated to do so, and they trusted authority.
