Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

[Bill Chapman]

Then why do so many people try to claim that these people identified Oswald as Tippit's killer?

You're nitpicking

[Walt Cakebread]

Pretty sure Benavides qualified the remark
The other guy turned out to be Oswald

You pretty sure that you have your head stuck......Benavides said exactly the opposite of  what you claim...

He at first said "Oswald"  ( because that was the commonly accepted lie)   But then he corrected himself by saying "OR THE MAN WHO SHOT HIM"

And he referred to the Killer as " this other man".....   If that man had been Lee Oswald then the easiest and most direct way would have been .... "Oswald shot him".    But he didn't say that....   Now did he??

You're nitpicking

Why is it always "nitpicking" when LN-ers get caught out making false claims?  If the evidence is so conclusive why do you have to lie about it?

He didn't know Oswald's name at the time of the shooting. That was his point.

Are you talking about me? Point out where I made false claims.

But EVERYBODY knew Lee Oswald's name at the time that Benavides said ...." this other man shot him"

So Oswald is in Gomer Pyle-like bliss up to the assassination about whatever is going on.  Then it immediately dawns on him that he is going to take the fall for it.  He suddenly becomes a genius. So he does the logical thing and kills a police officer.  That is quite a fantasy tale.  The most logical reason for him to have killed Tippit is because he has just assassinated the President and has nothing to lose at that point.  He can't risk the possibility that he has already been identified as a suspect and will be arrested if he IDs himself.

What does 'Gomer Pyle-like bliss' mean?
"If he IDs himself"? Didn't he have a fake ID to show- that said A J or [Alek] Hidell who didn't even actually exist?
