JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Re: Acoustic Evidence
« Last post by Tommy Shanks on Today at 08:09:18 PM »
When is Michael T. Griffith going to identify the motorcycle officer whose mic was stuck open to record the gunfire in Dealey Plaza during the assassination? Surely he is aware that it could not possibly have been H.B. McLain. So then who was it?

Questions you might or might not have:
- Does this supersede any other collection?
No. This is my personal collection, very work in progress, and there is a high chance these are probably not the highest quality versions.
- But Matt! this is 4GB! It's too heavy! I can't-
You can download this.

Feed back for improving is greatly appreciated, happy browsing, folks!  :D

After the passages of so much time, you have to wonder if there is anything left to be learned.  Maybe AI can be used on some of the films and photos to put it to rest one day, but I think we reached the point of diminishing returns on the evidence decades ago.  My conclusion from that evidence is that Oswald did it.  There is certainly no credible evidence of the involvement of anyone else.  No feasible narrative that explains away the evidence against Oswald or even a narrative that makes sense in which Oswald is not the assassin.  Does Cuba, Russia or the US government have anything from Oswald's trip to Mexico City that could shed further light on his motive?  A tape recording or transcript.  I doubt it but that is the last frontier unless AI can open new avenues.  When all is said and done, I'm 99.99 percent sure that Oswald was the assassin.  And 99.98 percent sure no one else was involved.
AI should definetely not be used for upscaling photos or films, home movies can be scanned in 4K, photos too, the AI, if used in a low-quality film, can generate details that were never there.

   Robin - Thanks for posting the Wiegman snippet. The 5 women standing to the (R) of the Cowboy Hat Man are NOT standing on the "corner of the building". The sniper's nest is on the (R) of the TSBD Front Steps. The "corner of the building" is even just (R) of that window.

Towner frame:

The line actually continues past the "end of the building" these bystanders can't be seen in Wiegman.

So you’re in  Brazil , huh ?  Hey you should look up a guy named Len Colby, famous jfk troll from the ed forum. look him up, Matt !  He’s a homeboy!
Never did touch the (Dis)education Forum but dang, it's gotten to that point? Guess that "forum" is rough.

I'm very new to collecting JFK stuff, lemme tell ya, i only have the MPI zapruder dvd and only that, i really wanted to buy more stuff, but my folks would wanna check what i'm buying, and if i'm buying on ebay or other american sites, it would be a bit annoying to ship to Brazil, not very ideal conditions to be researching the JFKA in, but i'll see what i can do.

So you’re in  Brazil , huh ?  Hey you should look up a guy named Len Colby, famous jfk troll from the ed forum. look him up, Matt !  He’s a homeboy!

Your counter factual description of California reminds me of the classic complaint about the restaurant that the complainer says sucks because it is always so crowded and noisy!

You ignored my well supported arguments against execution and high incarceration…. They are not deterents but instead are more expensive and counterproductive compared to results in states with no executions and dramatically less per capita incarceration rates.

The least safe states are red states. The red state governments focus on “solving” problems that do not exist at a level that made it at all reasonable to prioritize them!

AT LEAST 12 state governments are not second guessing pediatricians, Ob-Gyns, librarians. or scientific consensus because it is not reasonable for legislators to focus on contradicting what is beyond the expertise of the average red states legislator.

Cost of living is heavily influenced by demand. There must still be enough demand for New York or California residence, both much safer than almost any red state, to maintain housing price and income levels.

I know of a couple who moved ten years ago at onset of retirement age from western CT to North GA. She had taught school and he was a self employed handy man. There was no property tax break in CT for homeowners with net annual income below $25k. In GA, senior homeowners with that income limit get the school tax portion of their property tax waived. They pay $1050 annually on their home currently market priced at $600,000 which rose 50% in price in ten years, while younger and wealthier neighbors over 65 pay $7,000 annual tax. The GA county they reside in has 15th highest average household income in the U.S.

None of those points changes that the GA Republican controlled state government reaps what it sows. It is a malpractice disaster as far as legislative focus compared to CT’s state gov. BTW, the waiving of school tax on homes of low income retirees shifts the cost to all other homeowners.

All the words in the world don't change simple facts.  People are leaving places like California and NY that have been governed by liberals for decades.  They are moving to red states.  These people are not acting irrationally against their own self interest.  They are leaving behind high taxes, crime, homeless encampments, and illegal alien sanctuaries for a better life.

To put this in perspective, JFK has been dead for 16+ more years than he was alive.

It has now been longer between JFKA and the present than it was between the McKinley assassination and the JFKA. I don't recall any sort of continued consternation about the McKinley assassination as there has been about the JFKA. For some reason, people just can't seem to put the JFKA in their rearview mirror. They want to keep it front and center. Of course as a JFKA buff myself, I am one of those people still fascinated by the story even though I am convinced the WC got it right when they released their report 62 years ago. I have said on numerous occasions that I do this for amusement only, even though I have gone through long stretches in my life where I quit this hobby cold turkey. Something keeps bringing me back.

I am still puzzled by what keeps the CTs going. Do they think that some game changing piece of evidence is going to suddenly appear that will confirm their long held positions? Do they think if they keep plugging away there is going to be an "AHA" moment when they finally put the pieces together? I freely admit to being a cynic but it seems to me if the CT folks haven't figured out the JFKA by now with what is already known, why would they expect they ever will?

At that time we were traveling very slowly, no more than 12 miles an hour. In accordance with my custom, I was very much concerned about our timing and at just about that point I looked at my watch and noted that it was almost exactly 12:30 p.m., Which was the time we were due at the Trade Mart. I commented to Ken O'Donnell that it was 12:30 and we would only be about five minutes late when we arrived at the Trade Mart. Shortly thereafter the first shot went off and it sounded to me as if it were a firecracker. I noticed then that the President moved quite far to his left after the shot from the extreme right hand side where he had been sitting. There was a second shot and Governor Connally disappeared from sight and then there was a third shot which took off the top of the President's head and had the sickening sound of a grapefruit splattering against the side of a wall. The total time between the first and third shots was about 5 or 6 seconds. My first impression was that the shots came from the right and overhead, but I also had a fleeting impression that the noise appeared to come from the front in the area of the triple overpass. This may have resulted from my feeling, when I looked forward toward the overpass, that we might have ridden into an ambush.
