My COMMON SENSE tells me that the simple fact that Oswald made it out of the Depository building alive and then wandered the streets of Dallas and Oak Cliff taking busses and taxis... proves that he was no patsy.

I can see it now.  In the pre-assassination meetings at the Conspiracies 'R' Us offices, the man sitting at the important end of the table decides that it is perfectly okay to allow the patsy to wander around on his own.  Laughable.

Isn't it fun to create your own speculative narrative and then dismiss it as laughable.

If there was a conspiracy, Oswald must have been part of it in some way, but - and this is also a speculative scenario - he could well have not been aware of what actually was going on.
If he was the patsy, the evidence would have made him so, regardless if he "escaped" from the TSBD and wandered around town or not.

Do you dislike the Donks and the Phants equally?

On any given day...

Lately, with the Mamdani-stan wing of the D-Party becoming ascendant...maybe 60/40 favor for the GOP.

But, in general it is a race to the bottom between these two parties....

I like Marco Rubio.

Socialism bad?

"Given the alignment of the two limo victims at the time of the shooting, plus the location of the only known shooter in Dealey Plaza, plus the fact that no bullets were found in JFK's body at all, plus the fact that a whole bullet which positively came out of the gun that was found on the sixth floor of the TSBD was found inside the hospital where the two victims were taken, plus the fact that the two injured limo victims reacted to an external stimulus at precisely the same moment in time on the Zapruder Film....I wonder how anyone in 2022 (or any other year or millennium) can be so blind as to not accept the Single-Bullet Theory as fact." -- David Von Pein [DVP]; September 28, 2022

[More to come....]

My COMMON SENSE tells me that the simple fact that Oswald made it out of the Depository building alive and then wandered the streets of Dallas and Oak Cliff taking busses and taxis... proves that he was no patsy.

I can see it now.  In the pre-assassination meetings at the Conspiracies 'R' Us offices, the man sitting at the important end of the table decides that it is perfectly okay to allow the patsy to wander around on his own.  Laughable.

I overlooked the parts regarding Jack Ruby and the fact that the Dallas Police Department allowed their prime suspect to get lynched. It always troubled me that Ruby was allowed to be in the parking garage during the 'aborted transfer' of Oswald, that not a single police official recognized him and told him to leave. It is most unfortunate. A trial could have provided many answers.

The simple fact that Ruby was not yet recognized by anyone is very good evidence, to me anyway, that he had only been in the basement for a very short time (two minutes at the most) before Oswald was led out, i.e. there wasn't enough time for anyone who may have known him to even see him.

By raising the issue of the dented shell, the CTs demonstrate how really, really bad they are at weighing evidence. To them, the presence of a dented shell in the sniper's nest negates all the other forensic evidence that points to Oswald as the shooter. That dented shell gives them the excuse to dismiss the fact that all three of the spent shells were fired by the rifle that was found elsewhere on the 6th floor. That rifle was connected to Oswald in four different ways. By the paper trail indicating he purchased the rifle via mail order. He was photographed with the rifle. His palm print was on that rifle. The fibers on the butt plate of the rifle matched the shirt Oswald was wearing that day. Furthermore, a bag was found next to the sniper's nest that had Oswald's palm and fingerprint on the bottom of the bag and fibers matching the blanket Oswald used to store the rifle. Oswald's fingerprints were found on top of the boxes that were stacked by the window to form a rifle rest. All of this evidence points unmistakably to Oswald as the assassin. But that is not the answer the CTs want. In fact, they give no indication they are after any answers at all. What they really want are excuses to dismiss all that damning evidence that Oswald was they assassin. If they even respond to this post, we can count on them providing more excuses for each of the items I've pointed to as evidence of Oswald's guilt. They really have never shown an interest in figuring out who killed JFK. That just want excuses to deny it was Oswald.

The fibers on the butt plate of the rifle matched the shirt Oswald was wearing that day.

To be clear, the tuft of fibers were found in the crevice between the metal butt plate and the wooden stock.

Other than that, your point is entirely valid.
