No, that notice does not mean you've been banned. It means the JFK Assassination Debate section of the EF is no longer operating, perhaps because they were unable to pay web-hosting bill.
Gerry, there is additional evidence that supports Pena's claims. I say the following on this matter in my book A Comforting Lie: The Myth That a Lone Gunman Killed President Kennedy:
According to an HSCA document released by the ARRB, Orest Pena, an anti-Castro Cuban who was involved in training anti-Castro fighters, told the HSCA that Oswald was a government agent or informant. Pena was an FBI informant and operated a bar in New Orleans when Oswald spent time there, and Oswald was known to have visited Pena’s bar. Pena also told the HSCA that he gave this information to the WC but that the Commission ignored it (23:5-35).
Pena reported that on several occasions he saw Oswald speaking with FBI Cuban specialist Warren de Brueys, with David Smith at the Customs office, and with Wendell Roache at the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) office in New Orleans.
Pena was not always consistent in his accounts, but Roache confirmed Pena’s account about seeing Oswald in the New Orleans INS office when Roache was interviewed by the Church Committee. Roache said that he had “frequently” seen Oswald in the INS office and that Oswald even had an office there (24:2).
Roache stated in another Church Committee interview that during INS surveillance, Oswald was seen going into the offices of David Ferrie’s anti-Castro group in New Orleans, and that “Oswald was known to be one of the men in the group” (25:1). (pp. 62-63)
If you'll message me your mailing address, I'd be glad to send you a free copy of my book.
In reading your replies in this thread, I am again impressed by your calm, respectful demeanor. You are always a gentleman. (You and Fred are my two "favorite" lone-gunman theorists!)
