Even Fauci said the masks were useless.  Imagine telling people they had to wear masks but they could take them off to eat and drink.  It was laughable.  Like something out of "Idiocracy" or "The Crazies."  They knew everyone was going to get COVID.  It was a novel, highly contagious disease.  Biden got it about three times even though he was vaxed and masked like a mummy.  At best, it was a security blanket for weak willed people that did them no good.  At worst, it was an intentional attempt to control people to sort out who would comply and would not.   The kicker, of course, is that once Biden won the election, the masks quickly went bye bye.  The whole thing was a farce.  In Australia, they were sending out the tactical assault teams to arrest people walking outside by themselves without a mask.  Total insanity.

Yes.  Total insanity.

"In early March 2020, he advised the general public against wearing standard masks, primarily to preserve critical supplies for healthcare workers and because widespread asymptomatic spread was not yet clear."

Fauci’s Mistake on Masks Was Driven by Bad Economics, Not Uncertain Science

Do you think COVID was some kind of hoax?

My understanding is that Alyea filmed the SN before Day and Co. arrived and that what you have shown is the first true representation of the SN before anyone interfered with the scene.
Hi Dan,
Day and Company took their SN photos about 1:17 as proven by sun/shadow analysis. Alyea SN filming is clearly later than that by about 40 minutes.

STILL nothing !
You think masks were nonsense?  That's weak. Stupid talk. Without a vaccine masks were all we had.
You're forgetting about the hospitals overwhelmed with death or making ventilators out of car parts. Masks saved lives.
Just ask Herbert Cain. Oh wait - He flaunted it - ignored the warning and died of COVID.

Had nothing to do with Fauci while dealing with a POTUS talking about using household cleaners and UV lights

"Dr. Fauci clarified that he did not personally establish or issue the 6-foot guideline. He attributed the recommendation to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), noting it fell outside his direct purview at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)."

What you see Trump do to Pirro now, is much of the same that he did to Fauci.

 :D Not much...is there?

You are such a loser it defies belief.
I am going to try and very gently guide you through your own profound ignorance regarding the reality of this case.
You are going to struggle but hold on if you do really value the truth.

Tomlinson NEVER, EVER confirmed that CE399 was the bullet he found in Parkland, EVER.
How was he supposed to do that. One bullet looks much like another. He established that he found the bullet. O.P. Wright took possession of it and passed it on to the Secret Service that passed it on to the FBI. The chain of custody would have easily been established had the case gone to trial and the bullet would have been admissible.
Quote

Do you understand what this means?

Obviously, you don't.
Quote

The WC Sham deliberately avoided asking him to describe or confirm that CE399 was the bullet he found.

Not the least bit necessary.
Quote

Do you know what this means?
O P Wright categorically denied that CE399 was the bullet Tomlinson handed to him.

More lies. He couldn't positively identify it. Not the same as categorically denying it.
Quote
Do you know what this means?
Every person who dealt with the bullet in Parkland refused to identify CE399 as the bullet they handled.

You really are a dumbass. One bullet looks much the same as another. The only thing necessary to establish chain of custody is for each person in the chain to say they passed it on to the next person in the chain. It would have easily been done.
Quote

Do you know what this means?
The WC Sham entered CE399 into evidence without a single witness confirming it as such.
Do you know what this means?

It means you don't know shit about rules of evidence.
Quote

Ask yourself this - if you are the one who is in the right, how come it's you who can't answer the most basic questions regarding the origins of CE399?
It's got nothing to do with what I believe.
Why are you the one who looks clueless?

This from arguably the dumbest person on this forum.
Quote

PS: Rowley, the Chief of the Secret Service, handed a bullet to FBI agent Elmer Todd.
Agent Todd then showed CE399 to Rowley who refused to identify it as the bullet he had handed to Todd.
Anyone with half a brain can work out why.

Keep putting your ignorance of rules of evidence on display. It's most amusing.

I'm asking a simple yes/no question.
Do you accept that Weigman shows the limo before it enters the underpass?

   Based on the Wiegman images I have seen, I can Not tell if it is the JFK Limo or the Queen Mary. It is one or the other. And, I can Not tell if the car is in front of the underpass or partially under it. You claim you are asking a "simple yes/no question"? You need to work on your word selection if you want a definitive "yes/no". I am not cavalier when giving my "yes/no".

Dear danny BOY o'meara,

I still would like to know how the bad guys caused CE-399 to be so strangely deformed.

Did they fire it through a block of ballistics gel (or a human neck) and into a cadaver's wrist via a rib in its chest?

Or did they somehow fire it backwards through Oswald's rifle into a bale of cotton?

Hit it with a mallet?

Squeeze it in a vise?

More importantly, WHY did they go to such lengths to create such a strangely deformed bullet?

Because they were aware of JFK's and JBC's wounds and how they were created?

Or they just got lucky?

-- Tom

Just because I have an evening off I'm going to humour you, even though you're a complete dick.
Explain how the conspirators "got lucky" with the deformation of CE399.

Tom Alyea's Sniper's Nest Mystery Hull

The mystery follows from Warren Commission testimonies of Lt. Carl Day and Detective Richard Sims. Per their testimonies the three hulls found in the sniper's nest were collected and fingerprinted by Lt. Day and then put into an envelope and given to Sims for custody. This is just as the rifle was discovered and the detectives were sent to that area. Later Tom Alyea filmed the sniper's nest just a few minutes before 2 p.m. Therefore, Alyea filmed a hull that should not be there at that time.   


I used a technique of “frame registration and stacking” to obtain a clearer image compared with single video frames of Alyea's film of the Sniper's Nest. The technique and software are widely used in the astronomy community. An enhancement of a 171 frame stack from WFAA video shows an apparent hull near the hull “B” area (DPD Crime Lab photos) but is now rotated towards Alyea's camera. It is similar in shape and size with Mannlicher Carcano spent hulls. There is no gouge or defect in the flooring at this location. The artifact is not viewable in single frames of the film. Perhaps it is viewable in the original 16mm film, if it still exists.

I've timed Alyea's filming that scene at just a very few minutes before 2:00 p.m. when Studebaker and Alyea returned to the sniper's nest after filming the rifle. This is about the same time Lt. Day left the building with the rifle. If I  recall correctly the Warren Commission testimonies the hulls were fingerprinted and bagged just before the rifle was found. There should not be any hull on the floor at the hull “B” location in Alyea's film. It is missing in a crisp photo taken by William Allen around 3 pm. What is this if not a spent rifle shell?
   
The source of the Tom Alyea film clip was the WFAA 40th Anniversary Collector's Edition of the “the story behind the story JFK”. Jay Watson played some of the Alyea film as soon as it was processed for TV. The sniper nest scenes contained the chyron “DALLAS”. This is important as you will read later.

The stacking procedure is almost standard practice for armature astronomers. I was doing this myself during Covid 19 using cell phone video taken of moon features with an 8” telescope. It is this experience that gave me the idea to try it on JFK videos. I don't know of anyone else doing this for JFKA video.

The process of stacking first involves registration of the source frames. This is done automatically after fixed reference features of the SCENE are selected and marked. The software then will internally register the 8 bit frames and stack them into a 16 bit buffer. The final output is a single frame that is the sum of the input frames. The stack then includes all of the features of the input frames as an average frame. The entire process relies on the improvement of signal-to-noise (S/N) as more registered frames are stacked. Video noise in these video frames is essentially averaged and smoothed. The signal to noise improves with a theoretical square root of the number of source images. Thus, for my 171 frame image there is roughly 13x improvement of S/N. The raw image at this point is usually blurrier than any single frame might be.



 
The next step processes the raw stack using special sharpening tools based on “wavelets”. The math is a little beyond me but the image is sharped just by moving sliders until a desired result is (hopefully) found. It is a fairly steep learning curve to get decent results. The end result is an apparent sharpening of fixed points in the scene. Features in the individual frames that change in location and not part of the scene will become blurred or even “ghosted”.

Alyea filmed his scenes as a human tripod. Almost, but he held the camera on his subject fairly steady. But for these 171 frames the camera did move slightly during his filming and, therefore, become blurred with the fixed scene remaining sharp. The same thing holds for possible imperfections, (e.g. a scratch or spec of dirt,), in the camera lens. It too would become blurred as the camera moved. Film development imperfections would also be ghosted. The DALLAS chyron appears blurred because is was not part of the subject scene but added to all frames at a fixed location. The hull is visible due to being a fixed feature in the scene. Alyea filmed the sniper's nest scene with a second take at a lower light exposure level. The scene is darker, and plagued with his “film loop” malfunction. Moreover, a similarly processed stack of this second take shows this same hull in the same location.
I'm attaching the registered 171 frame stack before sharpening. I can't see any evidence for the hull. The registered frames are available to the user and ready for making an un-sharpened stabilized gif. I've done that and playing the video, and knowing where to look, can see fleeting, random sections but never a clear indication that something is actually present. There is just too much video noise. I wonder if the original film might show something there, if the film still exists. Below is an example of another scene from Alyea taken after he and Studebaker left the nest area and are now at the area of the rifle and NW stairs. In the enhanced frame below one can easily identify a flash bulb and Speed Graphic camera atop the boxes. Can you see the bulb in the single frame? Can you even tell that is a camera atop the boxes?


As for the timing of the SN views I relied on the sun interacting with the window's east vertical bricks. In the Alyea film the sun is just beginning to shine on the northern edge of these window bricks. A forum member and I were independently 3D modeling the sniper nest to estimate the timing of the film. Between the two of us there was almost 20 minutes difference of when we simulated the Alyea sun. I was having issues with the various dimensions of the window, that greatly affected the timing. I decided the only way I could get an accurate time would be boots-on-the-ground at the upcoming 2021 November 22'nd anniversary. Buell Frazier was to be the guest speaker and I wished to see him. The weather prediction was clear sky so I planned to spend a few nights in Dallas. Frazier's talk ended about 12:30 p.m. which gave me time get downstairs in order to take a series of photographs. There were many people touring at this time and I had to kinda blend in and orbit around the SN exhibit. Finally at about 13:51 the first rays of sun hit the bricks edge. By about 13:55 the sun was at good match to Alyea's view. By 14:00 the sun appears to have already passed the Alyea view. Thus, I'm confident the true timing is a few minutes before 2:00 p.m.


This topic was introduced in2022 as Tom Alyea “What the Hull Is That?” That thread used the Imgur images not approved now.
https://www.jfkassassinationforum.com/index.php/topic,3510.0.html

My understanding is that Alyea filmed the SN before Day and Co. arrived and that what you have shown is the first true representation of the SN before anyone interfered with the scene.

   I believe the timelines of the Wiegman, Darnell, and Couch Films were shortened to cover Wiegman filming the JFK Limo down by the Triple Underpass. We are talking only 20-30 seconds, but this had to be done to cover the JFK Limo STOP/Rolling STOP. This quickened timeline was also done to quickly place Oswald moving from the stairwell to the vestibule door, which is where Officer Baker first allegedly glimpsed Oswald. Giving Officer Baker an extended timeline would means Oswald would have had the time to already be inside/seated inside the 2nd Floor Lunchroom. Which would have verified the "soda pop" bottle story.

I'm asking a simple yes/no question.
Do you accept that Weigman shows the limo before it enters the underpass?

What thread?

PS I miss Fancy Pants Rancid!

It was some new fish who had tried to lay the law down but was given short shrift. He started bitching about how this forum was full of aggressive people and decided to leave.
Fancy Pants was all sympathetic with him so I pointed out how disgusted I was was that he had aggressively chased Toni Glover off this forum and that he was a massive hypocrite.
I can't remember what the thread was called but it's gone, including my own comment.
I didn't realise I could have my own comments wiped, even from my own history.
I want to know what the Heavens to Murgatroyd is going on.
