Fallacious Bugliosi Argument #25

And there he goes again.  Repeating an argument he already made and giving it a new number.

Assassination conspiracies are required to have a gunman with long term employment near the site of the assassination.  It's in the rule book.

Fallacious Bugliosi Argument #26

Another round of "I don't believe a conspiracy would do X, therefore there was no conspiracy".

But why would a lone nut choose to shoot the president at a time when at least 80 percent of his body was concealed and protected by the body of his limousine either?

CTers shouldn't pretend to be lawyers or scientists
Or pretend that they care about the truth while at the same time twisting what witnesses and other people on the forum said or what they meant. Or what the witnesses saw or didn't see.

What a flagrantly tacky statement it is to say that someone that you don't even really know only "pretends to care about the truth". Or do you just pretend to not care?
Hundreds of members and guests will read this blanket broad brush statement and see it as a brazenly barefaced and obviously glaring mental distortion.
You can believe what you want but don't dare to stand in judgment like that towards someone that doesn't seem to agree with your way of thinking. 
In other words...what a crappy thing to say.
It reminds me of Clinton calling all the Trump supporters a bunch of deplorables.

Yes. He had a complete and open shot coming down Houston.  Much more clearly than going down Elm away from the so-called lair, with the branches in the way and so forth. I've watched enough Forensic Files episodes (free on YTV) and criminals do do strange and dumb things.

But for this particular case, this makes no sense at all. The loud boom shot heard by various witnesses was IMO the distracting shot, causing confusion in the plaza area.  You can see that it did work as some of the SS agents immediately threw their heads backward to look that way.

The planners wanted to make damned sure the job got done so IMO this whole thing basically came down to overkill when the frontal shot blew his head off. What I've always wondered, too, is why not just shoot him in the head from the same gun that hit his back for the very first shot? It is something to think about but then I just answered my own question above with overkill.

Because he didn't have the resources to reconnoiter assassination sites around the country where the president was scheduled to be, searching for the very best one he could find.

His head was blown off? I didn't know that.
