JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Re: Why the James Tague Wounding Refutes the Lone-Gunman Theory
« Last post by Royell Storing on Today at 06:36:20 AM »Your arguments here range from uninformed to lazy to erroneous to misleading. What are the "plausible explanations" for the Tague curb chip and Tague wounding that preserve the lone-gunman theory? The least ridiculous pro-lone-gunman explanation is the WC's silly theory.
Something cut Tague's cheek during the shooting; the first two police officers who saw the curb scar recognized it as having been caused by a bullet; and Tague saw immediately that the curb scar was deep enough to have sent a chip of concrete that was large enough to cut his face, so it is comical for you to claim that, gee, we really don't know what caused Tague's injury. Yeah, we do.
To all but the brainwashed, it is obvious that a projectile from a bullet or propelled by a bullet caused Tague's injury -- that is the only rational, scientifically credible explanation, but you can't admit it because your theory has no bullet that could have done this.
You don't even have a halfway credible explanation for the curb scar and Tague's wounding.
The closest projectile you have would have come from a bullet that was over 200 feet away and that had just finished plowing through a human skull, and this fragment would have 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.
The next closest projectile you have was a bullet that was over 400 feet away that supposedly magically shed its copper jacket after merely hitting an oak tree limb (when in fact FMJ bullets will easily penetrate several inches into oak wood), and then, even more magically, supposedly sent one fragment downward to strike the pavement behind the limo and sent another fragment directly to the curb over 400 feet away, missing everything in between. Never mind that even an FMJ bullet traveling at a low velocity would not have behaved in this manner after striking an oak tree's limb.
Again, it is no wonder the WC and the FBI ignored the Tague incident as long as they dared, until so many reports about it appeared in the press that they could no longer pretend it didn't happen.
The Tague incident proves there had to have been more than three shots fired and thus automatically refutes the lone-gunman theory. I bet you didn't even read my linked article on the subject.
A bullet fired from a lower floor of the Dal-Tex Building could have barely missed JFK and gone on to hit the curb near Tague. A number of witnesses thought gunfire came from the Dal-Tex Building; there is photographic evidence that suggests a shot was fired from a lower floor of that building, as Harold Weisberg documented; and a Mafia man, Eugene Hale Brading, was arrested coming out of the building shortly after the assassination because he seemed to be acting suspiciously.
And with your, "....bullet fired from a lower floor of the Dal-Tex building...." in mind, what about SA Hickey's AR-15?
