There's nothing asinine about that comment.
You are little more than a robot constantly spewing the Warren Commission's narrative.
Is there a single point or detail that you deviate from the Warren Commission Report?

And name a single thing - the tiniest thing - that you have proven to anyone. You don't even know the difference between a fact and a theory. How can you 'prove' anything if you don't know what a fact is?
You are the second worst kind of frothing-at-the-mouth, rabid zealot. Your only saving grace is that you don't hide what you are.

Name a single detail about the assassination where you differ from the Warren Commission's narrative.
And by the way - when did Oswald make his preparations? He was down on the first floor talking to Eddie Piper while Bonnie Ray was up on the 6th from noon until  a few minutes before the Presidential limo entered Dealey Plaza.
Maybe he was the man with the rifle Arnold Rowland saw on the 6th floor.
Try to think for yourself for a change.

I was trying to offer to the LNs  a possible  rational alternative that explains Dougherty not seeing anything in Oswald’s hands when Oswald entered the back door of TSBD that morning to replace the standard LN “he just was  not paying attention” argument. So I just letting you know I’m not  attacking either you or John Corbett . I’m just trying to have a Socratic dialogue and that means questioning the status quo.

JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Re: Acoustic Evidence
« Last post by Steve M. Galbraith on Today at 03:40:35 PM »
Thompson thinks the two men Bowers saw were "behind" the fence (see excerpt below). They weren't. They were in front.

As Bowers testified:
Mr. BOWERS - "Directly in line, towards the mouth of the underpass, there were two men. One man, middle-aged, or slightly older, fairly heavy-set, in a white shirt, fairly dark trousers. Another younger man, about midtwenties, in either a plaid shirt or plaid coat or jacket."

Note: Plaid shirt/coat/jacket.. The obvious choice of clothing for any sniper.

And:
Mr. BOWERS - They were standing within 10 or 15 feet of each other, and gave no appearance of being together, as far as I knew.

And:
Mr. BOWERS - He [DPD motorcycle officer Haygood] came up into this area where there are some trees, and where I had described the two men were in the general vicinity of this.
Mr. BALL - Were the two men there at the time?
Mr. BOWERS - I--as far as I know, one of them was. The other I could not say. The darker dressed man was too hard to distinguish from the trees. The white shirt, yes; I think he was.

The man in plaid coat/jackert is on the left below. To his right is the older man in the white shirt (most likely Emmett Hudson, the Plaza grounds keeper). These are, based on all of his statements, the two men I think Bowers saw "towards the mouth of the underpass." You can't be "towards the mouth of the underpass" if you are behind the fence.

Note: Bowers never mentions hearing a shot from the fence. Or seeing anyone with a rifle. These are called clues, clues there wasn't a gunman behind the fence. In JFK conspiracy world they are clues there *was* a gunman. But of course.



Here is Thompson in his book. Notice the dismissal of Bower's friends' accounts? "Garbled at best". In fact, if you read the entire section on Bowers you'll see that Thompson is dismissal of him too. He wants to use selected parts of Bowers account to support his more important witness: Sam Holland.

A muzzle-loading rifle does not issue fire slugs at supersonic speeds.

I guess we can add this to the long list of subjects you are ignorant about. The below article has a chart that lists muzzle velocities for a wide variety of loads for a muzzle loading rifle and most of them are supersonic.

Who knows what you were hearing.

I do.

What you heard from a muzzle-loading rifle has no bearing on what Bowers heard during the JFKA.

Bowers testimony is rather clear.

I guess reading comprehension isn't your strong suit either. I didn't say the muzzle loading rifle had any bearing on what Bowers heard. It had a bearing on what I heard. I heard a double sound from a single shot. I know it was a single shot because a muzzle loader can't fire two shots in rapid succession.

Those 7 people never fired Oswald's rifle.

Good point Tim Thumb1: maybe there is some distinct specific difference with Oswald’s rifle that would  prevent any trace of gunpowder from escaping the chamber even though it was exposed 3 times during the bolt operation ejection of shell and loading the next round?

What do you think about the CBS time trial shooters  not having used Oswald’s rifle? Does that invalidate the fact that 3 shooters were actually able to fire 3 shots and get at least 2 hits in less than 6 seconds?

Needless to say, if the alleged magic bullet even grazed the spine during its supposed journey, it is doubly impossible that it could have created a throat wound that was small (5 mm), neat, and punched inward, much less a throat wound that had damage behind and beneath it that was larger than the wound itself.

It's amazing how many of your beliefs begin with an "if".

JFK Assassination Short Railroad Yard Scenes With Dallas Deputy Sheriff  Roger Dean Craig - 5 Different Speeds


    At :12 - :14 seconds we see the lost Darnell Film snippet that "The JFK Theorist" included in a YOU TUBE video he posted there. This snippet also shows us Officer Harkness and what is alleged to be DPD Motorcycle Officer Haygood BEFORE 12:35 PM. That is Not Motorcycle Officer Haygood. What we are seeing is a Bogus DPD Motorcycle Cop making his way toward the TSBD. 
   12:35 - DPD Motorcycle Officer Haygood made a documented radio transmission from his motorcycle parked near the Triple Underpass.
   12:36 PM - Officer Harkness made a documented police radio transmission that he had an eyewitness and was bringing that eyewitness to the TSBD.
   That DPD Motorcycle Officer we see in this snippet is NOT OFFICER HAYGOOD. The time of this same snippet is NOT PRIOR TO 12:35 PM. What we are seeing on this snippet is a Bogus DPD Motorcycle Cop. The time of this snippet would be 12:38 - 12:39. What we are seeing in this snippet is well after DPD Motorcycle Officer Haygood made his documented 12:35 radio transmission from his motorcycle parked near the triple underpass.

I see Nickerson is still peddling the absurd bunched-clothing theory, ignoring the fact that no photo or frame taken within 3 seconds of the back-wound bullet's impact shows JFK's coat with a bunch even close to the bunch that would have been required to account for the location of the bullet holes in the back of the coat and shirt, not to mention that Willis slide 5, taken a fraction of a second within the bullet's impact, shows the coat lying virtually flat. This is just more proof that WC apologists here will never admit anything, no matter how obvious it is.

It is worth repeating that one WC defender, Jim Moore, has been objective enough to admit that the bunched-clothing theory is nonsense. He correctly observes that the shirt and coat would have had to bunch in nearly perfect “millimeter-for-millimeter correspondence” and that the odds against such bunching “boggle the imagination” (Conspiracy of One, 1991, p. 155). Moore also acknowledges that the photographic evidence refutes the idea that JFK’s coat was markedly bunched during the timeframe the SBT supposedly occurred (Conspiracy of One, pp. 154-155).

It is very curious to see WC apologists citing the autopsy doctors and the Clark Panel on the back wound's location when that same Clark Panel said the autopsy doctors mislocated the rear head entry wound by a whopping 4 inches, an unfathomable error. This would require us to believe that the autopsy doctors could not tell the difference between a wound near the EOP in the occipital bone and a wound 4 inches higher above the lambdoid suture and to the right of the sagittal suture in the parietal bone.

That would literally be like mistaking a wound in the center of the wrist for a wound in the knuckle of the middle finger.

What makes this gigantic-blunder theory even more absurd is the fact that the back of the head, according to the autopsy photos, was entirely intact. Of course, we know those photos are fraudulent, that there was an orange-sized hole in the right occipital-parietal area. However, the point is that if we assume the autopsy photos are accurate, this makes the alleged mislocating of the rear head entry wound even more absurd and unbelievable.

Moreover, the autopsy skull x-rays appear to show no bone matter missing from the occiput. Of course, we now know that optical-density measurements of the skull x-rays indicate a sizable amount of missing occipital bone, even though the x-ray images do not appear to the naked eye to show such damage.

But, the point is that if there was no bone missing from the occiput at the autopsy, the pathologists would have had no trouble whatsoever identifying an entry wound near the EOP in the occiput and could not possibly have mistaken the EOP wound for the cowlick entry site, because the wound would have been clearly below the lambdoid suture, nowhere near the sagittal suture, 4 inches below the lambda, and obviously nowhere near the parietal bone.

The Clark Panel, like other government panels in the JFK case, were willing to acknowledge facts that they believed were uncontroversial and/or facts that they did not realize were fatal to the lone-gunman theory, such as the panel's observation that the skull damage indicated the head had been hit by a high-velocity bullet. The panel members felt safe in acknowledging this fact, since the autopsy report says the same thing. Neither the panel members nor the autopsy doctors seemed to know that the alleged murder weapon was not a high-velocity rifle and that the FBI's chief firearms experts had described the rifle to the WC as having "a very low velocity" (3 H 414).

Now, regarding the Clark Panel's statements relating to the back wound and the single-bullet theory, even the uber-cautious Pat Speer has noted their problematic nature. I quote a small portion of his critique on the subject:

Now, should one think I've gone too far in proposing the Clark Panel was not on the up and up, there's still another point to consider--one that only became apparent in the subsequent years. As discussed, Dr. Fisher knew the magic bullet, CE 399, showed no signs of having struck a bone. He told Weisberg “we were convinced it was possible for a bullet tract to connect the entrance and exit wounds without being deflected by, or hitting the bony vertebrae.” Now note that he wrote "WE." Well, that would include the panel's radiologist, Dr. Russell Morgan.

So what did Dr. Morgan tell Dr. Lattimer, the first independent doctor to view the autopsy materials, after Dr. Lattimer viewed the x-rays at the archives in 1972, and came to believe he saw bone fragments in the neck?

In Kennedy and Lincoln (1980), Dr. Lattimer writes:

"Admittedly it is difficult to distinguish between small fragments of metal and bone, and it was the first reaction of Dr. Russell H. Morgan, of the 1968 panel of experts, who discovered them, that they might be metal because they showed up so well. In a personal letter to me, Dr. Morgan agreed, however, that the presence of these fragments, regardless of whether they are bone or metal, indicates that the cervical spine was struck (brushed) by the neck bullet. He wrote: 'Regardless of the nature of the opacities, it seems clear to me that the bullet that passed through President Kennedy's neck, brushed the cervical spine before emerging in front.'"

Let's recall here that the Clark Panel, on which Morgan was the sole radiologist, issued a report claiming "There is no evidence of fracture of either scapula or of the clavicles, or of the ribs or of any of the cervical or thoracic vertebrae," and that this report later added "the X-ray films show no bony damage in the thorax or neck.

Well, heck, it seems clear from this that, subsequent to the issuance of the panel's report, Morgan had come to realize that his government-sanctioned conclusion that the cervical vertebrae were undamaged was not gonna stand the test of time, and had decided to get out from under this deception by claiming the previously unacknowledged damage within the neck may have been caused by a bullet's brushing the cervical spine, and not a direct hit. This avoided, of course, that he'd previously claimed there was no such damage within the neck. (A New Perspective on the John F. Kennedy Assassination, Chapter 10: "Examining the Examinations," online book, https://www.patspeer.com/chapter10examiningtheexaminations)


Needless to say, if the alleged magic bullet even grazed the spine during its supposed journey, it is doubly impossible that it could have created a throat wound that was small (5 mm), neat, and punched inward, much less a throat wound that had damage behind and beneath it that was larger than the wound itself.

Digitally Remastered Version Of The Lee Bowers Interview - Superior Viewing Quality.  Thumb1:

Obviously i do have Youtube, and actually, i've been following his channel, he posts amazing stuff, the problem is, he kinda doesn't list his sources + Youtube uses compressed video format so it's not 100% lossless.

   So because YOU TUBE is "not 100% lossless", you are gonna walk away from JFK Assassination Film Copies posted by "The JFK Theorist"/Alex Harris? You're cheating yourself while waiting on your coveted Golden Goose. Alex posted a snippet of the Darnell Film that is very, very seldom included in Any copy of the Darnell Film. Including a copy of the Darnell Film that was posted by this forum.

Well, i'll try and see if i can find the original source for it, Youtube doesn't provide lossless video for a good restoration

  (1)  I own "The Lost Bullet" DVD. (2) I have watched the YOU TUBE video I previously referenced. The difference between these 2 Z Film copies is obvious to the naked eye. "The Lost Bullet" is now 15 yrs old. Technology has marched on since "The Lost Bullet" did their spit-n-polish on the Z Film.
