JFK Assassination Forum

I believe it was a white lie to avoid having to tell a 19 years old co-worker that he was really going to try and save his marriage.

Sure it's common knowledge that he was trying to save his marriage, but why Thursday?
If he stuck to his standard procedure he could have gone on Friday, taken his dirty clothes and made his slave Marina do his washing, he'd have a whole two days to spend with his kids and he'd have a whole two days to spend with Marina because when you're in love you want to spend as much time with your loved one as possible.
But Thursday gave him no chance to have his clothes washed, hardly any time with his kids and only a few hours to try and fix his marriage.
So it's clear, as every informed Scholar has said since day 1, Oswald's second plan after his failure to reconnect with Marina, was to get his rifle and there's no getting around that and long after we are all gone, this truth which was proved by the WC and then HSCA will be forever enshrined in the history of the World!! Get use to it!

Yes, LHO's curtain rods explanation appears fabricated.

LHO carried a peculiar package into the TSBD on 11.22. Of course, security at the TSBD was lax; LHO could have secreted the M-C rifle, or parts of it, into the TSBD almost any night, or previous days. 

LHO remains the best suspect as the TSBD6 shooter. LHO was invisible when shots rang out, and a slender light-skinned male was seen in the TSBD6 sniper window while shots rang out. LHO was inside the TSBD when JFK and JBC were shot, and a bullet struck a curb near Tague.

LHO's rifle was found on TSBD6, and three shells found at the sniper window, and three loud shots heard deep inside the TSBD (Geneva Hine testimony).

Sure looks like LHO took three shots in the direction of the JFK limo on 11.22, from TSBD6.

However, all of that does not preclude others participating in the JFKA.

The smoke-and-bang show on the GK, and the heavy, telltale scent of gunsmoke in the GK area in the immediate aftermath of the shooting indicates gunfire in the GK area (the wind was blowing towards the TSBD from the Third Street overpass, thus ruling out TSBD6 as the source of that gunsmoke).

My layman's view of the Z-film is the Gov. JBC is shot ~Z-295.

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)

Again as a layman, I lean against JBC holding onto his Stetson hat in his right hand, after being shot through the right-hand wrist (Z-272). JBC turning around to check on JFK, after being shot through the chest, also fails the believability test.

So, I suspect two gunsels behind the JFK limo. 

My other suspicion is that the JFKAC was very small, probably three individuals including LHO, nationalists, zealots or ideologues, acting without any oversight. Perhaps the other two were murdered when G2 figured out what they had done.

BTW, small nationalist/ideological conspiracies were in the air during 1940-60s.

"On March 1, 1954, four Puerto Rican nationalists—Lolita Lebrón, Rafael Cancel Miranda, Irvin Flores Rodríguez, and Andrés Figueroa Cordero—opened fire from the House of Representatives visitor's gallery in Washington, D.C., to protest U.S. colonial rule. The attack wounded five Congressmen.

Key Details of the 1954 Attack:
The Attack: The group traveled from New York, entered the Capitol, and fired roughly 15 to 30 shots. They shouted "ˇViva Puerto Rico libre!" and waved the Puerto Rican flag."

Then we have--

"On November 1, 1950, Puerto Rican nationalists Oscar Collazo and Griselio Torresola attempted to assassinate President Harry S. Truman at Blair House in Washington, D.C., seeking to highlight the independence movement. The attack failed, resulting in the death of Torresola and White House Police officer Leslie Coffelt, with Collazo wounded and imprisoned."

I think the CT'ers have allowed their left-wing ideologies to overrule the obvious facts on the ground---LHO was a Marxist and took shots at JFK. There was a conspiracy, and LHO was a part of it.

The LN'ers, with much less ideological fervor, have also tried to force a narrative on the facts---the WC narrative, that followed President LBJ's instructions that nothing be found that would trigger a nuke war with Russia.

But hey, just IMHO.

Caveat emptor, and draw your own conclusions. 

Don't just love speculation?

Now all we have to do is wait until you start claiming it's actually a fact.

At least my speculation is based on the facts of this case whereas you speculate and make up an alternative narrative based on your paranoid delusions!

I don't believe for a second that Oswald went to Irving to get curtain rods.

And no, you didn't regularly log in your alter ego (nice of you to admit it is indeed your alter ego), you had him show up after seven years at the exact moment that his name came up in the discussion! I had forgotten about him.

Well actually a quick check of Vincent Baxter's posting history shows that he last posted in 2022, so you got that wrong, can't you get anything right!

And talk about obsession, you poor deluded little man, you've made numerous posts mentioning Vincent Baxter and he didn't magically appear, not once, so you got that wrong too. Pathetic!

"John Mytton" is indeed using a fake name, so, yes, it's possible.

Remarkable that you decided to come to his aid, or maybe not since you two have so much in common. 
Now all we have to do is wait for Vincent Baxter and the party is complete.

BTW where's Tom?

I suspect he's with Vincent Baxter

Obviously I'm not really John Mytton because he died a long time ago, but perhaps I'm Vincent Baxter or even Roger Collins or Otto Beck.... It's all very confusing.
