I am not sure who resurrected this zombie thread or why but I'd like to thank them. It has been quite entertaining.

Looks like you did.

I love reading the old posts attacking critics of Fauci and the CDC in the early days of the pandemic. We were told to trust the science and we now know the scientists were lying their a**es off to us. The virus was from a lab leak in Wuhan.

We know that how, exactly? Let’s look at the evidence:

The origin of SARS-CoV-2 remains a subject of ongoing scientific and intelligence investigation, with two primary hypotheses: a natural zoonotic spillover from animals or an accidental laboratory-associated incident. Most peer-reviewed genomic and epidemiological analyses point toward a natural wildlife origin, while government inquiries note the plausibility of a research-related spillover given the regional context of coronavirus studies.

Natural Zoonotic Origin Hypothesis:
This theory proposes that the virus evolved in wildlife—likely originating in bats—and jumped to humans, potentially via an intermediate host animal.

Geographical and Genetic Clustering: Early human cases in December 2019 spatially clustered tightly around the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in Wuhan, China.

Environmental Sampling: Environmental swabs taken from the market—specifically from cages, drains, and carts associated with the live wildlife trade—tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 RNA.

Genomic Diversity: Analyses published in Science indicated that multiple early viral lineages (Lineage A and B) were present at the market, mirroring patterns seen in past zoonotic outbreaks like SARS-CoV-1.

Evolutionary Precedent: Close genetic relatives of the virus class (sarbecoviruses) circulate widely in horseshoe bats across Southeast Asia.

Laboratory-Associated Origin Hypothesis.
This theory proposes that the pandemic started due to a mishap, such as a field collection leak or infection of a worker during the handling or study of a natural virus at a research facility in Wuhan.

Proximity to Research:. Wuhan is home to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, a major center for coronavirus surveillance and research.Retrospective Illness Reports: Intelligence and congressional reports noted unverified or retrospective accounts of researchers falling ill with respiratory symptoms in the fall of 2019.

Gain-of-Function Context:. Proponents of this view point out that researchers in the region previously collaborated on collecting and studying high-risk bat coronaviruses, raising questions about pre-pandemic biosafety conditions.
Counter-Evidence & Analysis: Most scientific evaluations state there is no proof of deliberate genetic engineering or creation as a bioweapon. Furthermore, the intact presence of the furin cleavage site in early patient samples argues against standard laboratory cell-culture adaptation, which typically causes mutations or deletions in that specific site.

Almost everything Fauci was telling us publicly was the opposite of what he knew to be true.

Wearing your CT hat today, John?

Hand waved away by a *know-it-all* that can only respond with insults.

Yes, exactly. He pretends to be a know-it-all but he actually knows very little and has repeatedly embarrassed himself with stunning gaffes.

For example, a few weeks ago Corbett started a thread aimed at my quoting of Dr. Vincent DiMaio on the established forensic fact that FMJ bullets will never shatter into dozens of tiny fragments when striking skull bone and that FMJ bullets are ruled out when x-rays show dozens of tiny fragments. Incredibly, Corbett said DiMaio was talking about FMJ handgun bullets and not FMJ rifle bullets, even though DiMaio specified twice in the quote that he was talking about FMJ rifle bullets.

Sometimes it literally seems like Corbett can't understand English. You just have to wonder how in the world he could have missed the fact that DiMaio specified, twice, that he was talking about FMJ rifle bullets. I had presented that quote to Corbett at least six times, and then he started a thread about my use of the quote and proceeded to make the hilarious blunder of claiming that DiMaio wasn't talking about FMJ rifle bullets but rather FMJ handgun bullets and that therefore I was misrepresenting DiMaio!

Corbett's responses in this thread are just more examples of his usual pitiful, uninformed, and dogmatic blundering and posturing. In his uneducated mind, the SBT is still the only plausible explanation for JFK and Connally's non-fatal wounds, yet our exchanges on the powerful evidence that refutes the SBT prove he has no rational, credible explanation for that evidence.

In his uneducated mind, the WC's comical theory that a fragment from the head shot caused Tague's wounding is "plausible," but then he turns around and hedges his bets by saying, gee, we don't really know what caused Tague's wound. Well, uh, yeah we do: a projectile from a bullet or propelled by a bullet cut Tague's face.

He responds with abject nonsense and evasion when asked to explain the fact that the closest projectile he can offer to explain Tague's wounding have would have come from a bullet (1) that was over 200 feet away, (2) had just finished plowing through a human skull, and (3) would have exited from the righthand side of the skull (whereas Tague was to the left of the limo), not to mention the fact that this fragment would have then had to clear both the limo's windshield and roll bar and then magically dive downward and leftward like a guided missile while somehow, someway, in defiance of the laws of physics, still retaining enough velocity to do the required damage.

And, one wonders who this alleged lone headshot bullet have produced a fragment large enough and with enough velocity to gouge the curb and/or cut Tague's face over 200 feet away, when this same bullet would have had to leave a 6.3 x 2.5 mm fragment in the rear outer table of the skull, leave several tiny fragments near the 6.3 x 2.5 mm fragment (including the McDonnel fragment), leave a 3 x 1 mm fragment and a 7 x 2 mm fragment just above the right orbit at the opposite end of the skull, leave all the fragments contained in the high fragment trail, and also leave two large fragments inside the limo near the driver's seat.

I mean, yikes, even Gerald Posner and Jim Moore don't buy the WC's ridiculous theory.

There's another problem: the sample smears taken from the Tague curb scar contained no copper. Uh oh, that's a big problem, because Oswald's alleged ammo was copper-jacketed FMJ ammo. This is why Posner floats the unscientific fairy tale that when Oswald allegedly fired his first shot from the sixth-floor window, the bullet hit a branch of the oak tree on Elm Street, that this collision supposedly caused the copper jacket to separate from its lead core. Then, so Posner's tale goes, this lead core split into two large fragments, with one fragment flying downward and striking the pavement behind the limo and with the other fragment streaking in a straight line over 400 feet to hit the curb near Tague, somehow weaving through the rest of the tree limbs before continuing its mythical journey to the curb.

Anyone who has done any reading on the behavior of FMJ bullets knows that an FMJ bullet is not going to shed its copper jacket from its lead core merely from hitting an oak limb. That's just not going to happen. FMJ bullets will penetrate 2 to 7 inches into oak wood when fired from less than 200 feet away. If the bullet hits an edge of the limb, it will remove a chip from the edge and continue on its journey with no more than moderate deformation. Such collisions will certainly not cause the jacket to separate from the core.

It is comical that Posner would even propose such a theory and then turn around and defend the SBT, which says that an FMJ bullet ripped through seven layers of skin, smashed 4 inches of rib bone, and shattered a distal radius bone, yet emerged with its jacket and lead core still firmly attached, with minimal deformation, and even with its lands and grooves intact.

I see. thanks for the heads up.

I'm basically trying to gather sources to make high definition digital frames of the home movies so that people stop using the J*hn C*stella version of the Zapruder film, that Helicopter looks horrendous, like it was done in microsoft paint with a crayon, i recommend the MPI dvd, i wanted to try and also restore the DCA film, because, it might not have earth-shattering evidence, but it has great shots of the motorcade before and after the shooting.

Moral of the story: fcuk NARA, fcuk the owners of the Dale Carpenter Sr film, and especially, fcuk the Associated Press, owners of the Muchmore film, we need those high definition films and gatekeeping it is just making our lives harder.

You might want to know something I have just figured out. Certain words seem to be verbotten on this forum and get auto corrected to something entirely different. As near as I can figure, when you type the word sh*t, it gets converted to Helicopter . I don't know why but that's just the way it is.

Humm, seems like someone has forgotten about the debunked conspiracy theories that leading Democrats floated, e.g., the gigantic Trump-Russia collusion hoax, the claim that Russians helped Trump steal the 2016 election, the claim that Republicans stole the 2018 Georgia election for governor, and the claim that Republicans stole the 2004 election from John Kerry by manipulating voting machines.

And let's not forget the more recent crazy conspiracy claims floated by Democrats, such as the claim that Trump orchestrated the January 6, 2021 riot, that there would be no more elections if Trump won in 2024, that Republicans are trying to keep women from voting, etc., etc.
