JFK Assassination Discussion & Debate / Re: The Kennedy Center
« Last post by Mark A. Oblazney on Yesterday at 08:57:45 AM »
To be fair, Trump has not proposed that Kennedy's name be removed from the center's name but only that his name be added: "The Donald J. Trump and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts." Anyway, my point is that this is not the forum to be discussing such things.

“To be fair” ????    lolololololololololololololololo

You spread lies everyday about Jack’s death and you have the nerve to complain about something being “not the place to be discussing things”.  You have serious issues, my dude.  You should start erasing posts as well before meeting the G-d of your understanding.  zei gezunt.

y’know, Albert……. I really don’t see much of a difference between your posts and those of your phoney president of the Former United States of Amerika. at least you have an excuse.  you all don’t realise the trouble you’re in. get readie for Freddie+

And everybody gets the Lee Harvey they deserve.  and a Trump-Cinque ticket in 2028 !!! Yessssssss!

The future of the republican Party is now being chronicled in the ‘new’ Washington Post, namely, The Washington Sun.  Thank the day.

My old pal (sort of) Nina Burleigh is there, along with Dana Milbank, who penned a brilliant piece on the ‘burden’ renaming everything after him.

I recommend this newspaper highly, as it shall come in handy for people who can’t handle the truth.  Godspeed +

Apparently the secret to finding this type of HD frames is not being lazy and being more tech savvy (no offense, mister), but i am kinda jealous of one thing, how come you guys have all these DVDs and documentaries while i have more tech savviness and no money? seriously, this stuff is overpriced on Amazon (after taxes by the way). So unless i sell a kidney or two, i don't think i'll get to see HD Muchmore and Wiegman for myself.

    I urge You and others to search through "Ebay" for your JFK Assassination Research Material. There's a library book copy of "Pictures Of The Pain" there for $35 + Free Shipping. You can also get new copies for $65. You can get a copy of Gary Mack's, "Unsolved History JFK, Death in Dealey Plaza" DVD, (with the better definition Wiegman Film among many other JFK assassination films and photos), for $25 + Free Ship for a brand new copy. The vast majority of vendors on Ebay are Mom & Pop businesses and you can directly email them with any question(s) and receive a quick response.

I said Andrew Iler made improvements.

The EF-JFKA is still too often a sewer for rank ethnic and partisan biases, related juvenalia, and crackpot theories derived therefrom.

I hope Iler ups his game.

BD-

People are not guilty until proven innocent. It works the other way around.

You posit Israel "must answer for its involvement" in the JFKA.

Specify that involvement.

Did Mossad work with LHO? Did Mossad put assets on the ground in DP on 11/22? Who? Cite an example.

Was it Mossad who framed LHO with paperwork indicating he bought the M-C rifle? What evidence do you have? Mossad controlled the Dallas Police Dep't? Mossad picked Earl Warren to run the WC and then put Dulles on board?

Did Mossad compel the WC into being? LBJ was only a Tel Aviv lackey? This stretches credulity past the breaking point.

Yes, Mossad worked with James Angleton, CIA'er. So the did the intel agencies of many nations, and even more so, the Vatican.

Angleton liked Israel as a counterweight to Moscow involvement in the Middle East. Israel was more or less a US tool back then, and the Vatican back then was a bulwark against communism, especially in Eastern Europe and Latin America. That hardly implicates the Vatican or Mossad in the JFKA. They were both US-Angleton allies. And solid allies to boot.

OT, but you repeat the rank canard that Mossad was involved in the 9.11 attack on the US. Again, is there the slightest evidence for this?

The 21 skyjackers were Middle East Islamist extremists, with possible links to Saudi Arabia. But you think Mossad was to blame?

The JFKA CT community wonders why it is often considered to be a lot of crackpots.

You might wonder about that.

Okay, so you're a far-left wingnut. Got it.

And you're a far-right wingnut.

JFK assassination forums are wingnut magnets.

Got it?

This is your answer to all the evidence presented in the OP and in subsequent replies? This is it? You're not even accurately describing the HSCA FPP's argument. I think British physiologist Russell Kent does a good job of explaining the fatal flaw in the FPP's shored-wound scenario:

To characterize the neck wound as an exit, and therefore to support the single-bullet theory, the HSCA Forensic Pathology Panel needed to account for it being so small. The panel did this by relying on the principle of ‘shored exit’ where clothing tight against the skin at the exit site of a bullet may prevent the usual shattering and tearing that results in a stellate-shaped, irregular wound. It is illustrated in Petty’s book Modern Legal Medicine, Psychiatry, and Forensic Science. The HSCA Forensic Pathology Panel report reads that:

"It is of the opinion that such a wound, uniformly regular in shape and small in size, might be anticipated from an intermediate or even high velocity missile if the tissues through which the missile exited were shored, buttressed or otherwise reinforced by clothing."

The problem is that according to Dr. Vincent DiMaio, a world expert on gunshot wounds, shored exit wounds produce "very wide, irregular abrasion collars." This was not evident in the wound seen at Parkland and is not seen in the autopsy photographs. The clincher that the throat wound was not a shored exit, however, is that the slits are not in the collar band (see Figure 21). I accept that the collar band would have been tight against the skin, but the slits are below it in a single layer of cotton not held firmly against the neck. They are at the level of the suprasternal notch (the dip in the middle of the neck between the two collar bones) and were probably not caused by a bullet. This fact alone undoes the single-bullet theory. The hole in the front of JFK’s neck was more likely an entrance wound, and the shirt slits were unrelated to it. (JFK Medical Betrayal: Where the Evidence Lies, 2022, pp. 179-180)


If anyone is inclined to suggest that Kent is misquoting Dr. DiMaio's statement that shored exit wounds will have "very wide, irregular abrasion collars," let us read the paragraph in which the statement appears in DiMaio's world-renowned forensic handbook Gunshot Wounds:

In unusual circumstances, exit wounds will have abraded margins (Figure 4.24). These are called shored exit wounds.  They are characterized by a broad, irregular band of abrasion of the skin around the exit. In such wounds the skin is reinforced, or “shored,” by a firm surface at the instant the bullet exits. Thus, individuals shot while lying on the floor, leaning against a wall, or sitting back in a chair may have shored exit wounds.  As it exits, the bullet everts the skin, with the everted margin impacting against the wall, floor, or back of a chair, thus being abraded or “rubbed raw.”  Shored exit wounds can also occur from tight supportive garments, such as girdles, brassieres, and belts, as well as from tight clothing. Fresh shored wounds have a moist, succulent appearance. The pattern of the material overlying the shored exit may be imprinted on the edges of the wound. Shored wounds have very wide, irregular abrasion collars and when dry may simulate contact wounds. (Gunshot Wounds: Practical Aspects of Firearms, Ballistics, and Forensic Techniques, Second Edition, CRC Press, 1999, pp 94-95)

Thus, WC apologists have no way to explain the fact that JFK's throat wound was small (about 5 mm), neat, and punched inward, textbook traits of an entry wound, and that the damage behind and below the wound was larger than the wound itself, another textbook trait of an entry wound. The shored-wound theory cannot explain the throat wound, and the FPP majority who floated this nonsense surely should have known better.

There is, of course, a logical, straightforward, forensic explanation for the throat wound's appearance and underlying damage: it was an entrance wound, just as the Parkland doctors initially said it was. But you guys can't be logical and follow the science because your theory of the shooting collapses if you admit the throat wound was an entrance wound.

You haven't answered my question. Was the HSCA's FPP of the opinion that an unshored exit wound of a missile of comparable size and velocity to that of the single bullet might be similar if the missile were not misshapen by striking a substantial bone within the body?

"Several panel members are also of the opinion that an unshored exit wound of a missile of comparable size and velocity might be similar if the missile were not misshapen by striking a substantial bone within the body?"

Since it is obvious that lone-gunman theorists here are simply not going to admit that the HSCA FPP's SBT actually destroys the SBT, let us take a moment to revisit the fact that there were too many bullet fragments deposited in Connally's body to have come from CE 399, the SBT's alleged bullet.

In his 11/29/63 supplemental x-ray report on Connally's wounds, Dr. Jack Reynolds, Parkland Hospital's chief radiologist and later a professor or radiology at Southwestern Medical School, said the metal fragment in Connally's thigh measured approximately 3.5 mm x 1.3 mm on the AP x-ray and about 2.0 mm x 1.5 mm on the lateral x-ray, so it was definitely somewhat dense and not any kind of a "flake":

There is, however, one density which remains constant on both films and appears to lie beneath the skin of the region of the subcutaneous fat in the medial aspect of the thigh meters posterior to the exterior of the anterior cortex. The shape of this density is irregular but is roughly oval. Precise measurements are difficult but it is estimated that the greatest length in the AP projection is about 3.5 millimeters and the greatest width about 1.3 millimeters.

Measurements of the densities in the lateral projection reveal the greatest length to be about 2 millimeters and the greatest width to be about 1.5 millimeters The long axis of the metallic object is oriented generally along the axis of the femur. ("Supplemental Report Describing in Detail the Appearance and Location of a Small Metallic Density Superimposed on the Soft Tissue Shadows of the Medial Aspect of the Left Thigh of Governor John Connally on Films Dated November 22, 1963," 11/29/63, pp. 1-2)


In his 11/9/77 HSCA interview, Dr. Reynolds said the identifiable opacity in the thigh x-rays "definitely has metal characteristics" and that his 11/29/63 report describing "the location of this fragment" was "correct":

Dr. Reynolds stated that an identifiable opacity exists in the thigh x-rays and that it definitely has metal characteristics. He stated that his 11-29-62 report, describing the location of this fragment as just beneath the skin in the region of the subcutaneous fat, is correct. (7 HSCA 320)

Dr Shires said the fragment was about 1mm in diameter. Dr Gregory said it looked to be about 2mm x 0.5mm. Here's what the HSCA FPP wrote:

The panel concurs with Dr. Reynolds' opinion that the 2-millimeter density is a missile fragment that was just under the skin andwas not deep within the thigh in the femur bone, as described in the Warren Commission Report.

And as you informed us,  Russell Kent wrote that the fragment was 3.5mm x 1.3mm.

But just to exaggerate the size of the fragment, let's go with the numbers that Dr Reynold's wrote in his Supplementary X-Ray report. He said that the fragment was roughly oval.  Let's assume for the sake of argument that the thigh fragment was perfectly rectangular. Using the three greatest dimensions estimated by Dr Reynolds, we get 3.5mm long by 2mm wide by 1.5mm thick. At those dimensions, its volume would be 10.5 cubic millimeters.

Converting to cm³: 10.5mm³ = 0.0105cm³

The density of lead is about 11.35 grams/cm³

0.0105cm³ x 11.35 g/cm³ = 0.119g or 119 milligrams

One grain is equivalent to 64.8 milligrams.

119/64.8 = 1.836 grains

Quote
In addition, Dr. Reynolds said there were "at least" four bullet fragments visible in Connally's wrist wound:

Robert Frazier weighed the total mass of those four fragments to be one half a grain.

Total mass of fragments deposited in Connally:  1.836 + 0.5 = 2.336 grains.

One of the three WCC bullets weighed by Robert Frazier weighed 161.5 grains

161.5 - 2.336 = 159.164

159.164 - 158.6 = 0.564.
