So to you it is "useless crap" to note that a renowned forensic pathologist who served on both the RC medical panel and the HSCA FPP said there is "no doubt" that the back-wound bullet hit the skin "in a sharply upward direction" and that the missile "traveled upwards within the body"?! That's your idea of "useless crap" when your SBT requires that the bullet hit at a downward angle and traveled downward through the neck?!

Oh my. So you are still peddling the preposterous claim that the Connally bullet traveled at a 45-degree downward angle through his chest?!

I notice you once again said nothing about the fact that Dr. Shaw measured the downward angle through Connally on Connally himself as being 25 degrees, and that the WC agreed with this. Let's read what the Warren Report says about this -- yet again:

When Governor Connally testified before the Commission 5 months after the assassination, on April 21, 1964, the Commission observed the Governor's chest wounds, as well as the injuries to his wrist and thigh and watched Dr. Shaw measure with a caliper an angle of declination of 25 degrees from the point of entry on the back to the point of exit on the front of the Governor's chest. (Warren Report, p. 93)

And allow me to again remind you that in their final report, the FPP corrected the obvious misstatement in Dr. Baden's report about a 45-degree downward angle through Connally, and they adjusted the downward angle to 10 degrees. Let's read from the FPP's report -- yet again:

Dr. Baden's report comments on the angle of the trajectory:

Positioning the Governor while erect in the anatomic posture shows the missile track to proceed from back to front downwards at approximately a 10-degree angle for a distance of 12 1/2 inches through the body. (7 HSCA 150)

I again ask you if you have ever bothered to look a diagram of Connally's chest wounds. If so, how can you possibly believe that the downward angle from the entry wound to the exit wound was 45 degrees? How?

LOL! This is pure hokum! Math is clearly not your thing, as you've already proved with your fantasy of a 45-degree downward angle through Connally.

Umm, no, if a shooter is 200 feet away, that does not mean he is also 200 feet off the ground. How in the world can you think this? Let's try this: The sixth-floor gunman was 265 feet from the limousine at Z313, but of course the gunman was not 265 feet off the ground, right? Right? He was 60 feet off the ground, as you should know.

Hint: You have no clue what you are talking about. The Connally back-wound bullet was not yawing when it hit and did not yaw when it transited his chest. The back wound was only 1.5 cm wide, the same width as JFK's rear entry wound. A 1.5-cm-wide entry wound indicates the bullet struck at a modest horizontal angle or that the target was turned somewhat, just as with the head wound. Moreover, as Dr. Shaw noted, the bullet was not yawing through the chest but created a "small tunneling wound" (7 HSCA 149) that "stripped the rib out without doing much damage to the muscles that lay on either side of it" (4 H 116).

I have pointed out these facts at least 10 times in the last six months, but you guys simply ignore them and keep repeating your yawing-bullet delusion. How about if you explain how a yawing bullet could have created a small tunneling wound that smashed 4 inches of rib bone while doing minimal damage to the surrounding muscles? Hey?

While you're at it, how about if you explain the fact that every single SBT wound-ballistics has contradicted the SBT? How about if you explain the fact that the most sophisticated, data-intensive SBT trajectory analysis ever done, and done by a respected forensic engineering firm no less, determined that the SBT is impossible?

Let me give you a short lesson in basic logic: If numerous facts clearly seem to prove that your theory is impossible, you can't dodge those facts by insisting that you will not explain them until someone provides you with an alternative theory that you find acceptable. That's not how it works. If you were to try that stunt in a graded and judged college debate, you would get demolished and flunked -- and probably kicked off the debate team for remedial tutoring.

You and other SBT true believers can't even get a bullet out of JFK's throat in the first place without ignoring a mountain of facts: the fact that the back wound was below the throat wound, the fact that the bullet would have transited the neck at an upward angle, the fact that the trajectory through the neck cannot be aligned with the sixth-floor window unless you assume JFK was leaning markedly forward when the bullet hit, the fact that the throat wound had all the textbook characteristics of an entry wound, the fact that the only theory you can offer to explain the throat wound's entry-like appearance is the impossible shored-wound theory, the fact that all four of the Parkland medical staff who saw the throat wound before the clothing was cut off and who commented on the wound's location said the wound was above the collar, the fact that your only answer to the hard physical evidence of the bullet holes in the rear of JFK's coat and shirt is the ridiculous and debunked bunched-clothing explanation, the fact that JFK's tie concretely proves that no bullet exited the throat, the fact that the shirt slits were below the collar band and had no fabric missing from them, the fact that we now know that Humes knew about the throat wound at least an hour before the exam phase of the autopsy was completed, the fact that we now know that at the autopsy the autopsy pathologists established for an absolute and observable fact that the back wound had no exit point, the fact that ARRB and other recorded interviews with autopsy witnesses have revealed that the men standing around the autopsy table could see that the back wound had no exit point because they could see the end of the probe pushing up against the lining of the chest cavity (even after all the chest organs had been removed), and the fact that the transcript of the WC's 1/27/64 executive session confirms that the first two drafts of the autopsy report said nothing about the throat wound being an exit point for the back wound.

Lee Bowers has been mentioned herein, so worth noting----

Lee Bowers herein tells Mark Lane that the latter two shots were very closely spaced, as in "knock-knock" on his table top.

at 5:35

Bowers demonstrates on his table the cadence, with two rapid knocks for the final two shots. This is indisputably Bowers' testimony.

AI: The typical time between two distinct knocks in a standard double knock is about 0.2 to 0.4 seconds (a quick, rhythmic beat).

Bowers' testimony is nearly identical to that Dallas Sheriff Seymour Weitzman, who also remembered the second two shots as nearly simultaneous. As did many other ear-witnesses.

This "bang.....bang-bang" cadence lines with Gov. JBC being shot ~Z295 and JFK at Z-312.

Connally: I was knocked over, just doubled over by the force of the bullet. It went in my back and came out my chest about 2 inches below and the left of my right nipple. The force of the bullet drove my body over almost double and when I looked, immediately I could see I was just drenched with blood. (1 HSCA 42)

That happens ~Z-295 or even a few frames later. Hard to tell---but certainly not near near Z-220 or so.

Very hard to square the reports of Bowers, Weitzman and JBC, none of whom seemed to have any axes to grind, all of whom seemed credible, with a lone gunsel armed with a single-shot-per-bolt-action on 11.22. 

IMHO, LHO was involved in the JFKA, and is the best suspect as the TSBD6 sniper.

But no way LHO fired two shots in less than one second, armed with the M-C short rifle. 

I have reasonable doubts, even compelling reservations, about the LNT.

Specter didn't hold the rod at the level of the chalk mark. As you can see below, the rod was somewhat above where the chalk mark on the jacket was.

What that picture shows is a fairly good representation of the path of the bullet through Kennedy. Not perfect though, But it does show that the vertical angle of single bullet trajectory could work.

There are numerous photos of Kennedy throughout the motorcade that show his jacket to be bunched up.

The photo that you linked to is of rather poor quality. The Croft photo is the closest to the time of the single bullet shot in which the bunchup can be seen. You can't see it the best but it's there.
