Why then would Oswald take such a difficult shot when in a few seconds there would be much better opportunities? Why didn’t the men on the floor just beneath him not hear the shot? Or anyone else in the building for that matter?

He had the presence of mind not to take a shot while the limo was on Houston St. which is understandable because he would be more easily spotted. And he did not arrange the snipers nest for such a shot.

I thought this thread was supposed to be about applying logic and critical thinking? It appears that a more apt title would have been Rehashing the Same Old Crap.

Given the circumstances of the JFKA, a logical supposition would be that Oswald did not expect to survive (and perhaps didn't care if he did). He was clearly thinking in this vein with the Walker attempt, which was vastly less risky.  If this were true, his failure to leave some sort of manifesto or at least a note is puzzling to me as I have previously stated. Extremely puzzling, in fact. Once he survived and was in custody, bragging about his deed would not have been in his legal or ideological interests. It appears to me that the wheels started turning immediately, which is why he wanted Communist Party showman Abt to represent him. My guess is that he was thinking in terms of a grand show trial that would cement his place in history as a hero of the Cuban people and a deep Marxist thinker.

I was only curious about the 9/11 related DNA research that MTG keeps vaguely alluding to.

I meant to reply to the MTG post. Sorry.

At the risk of beating my conspiracy-prone mindset drum ($19.95 in the toy section at Walmart), I would bet that if one knew Mansur intimately the seeds were there before he went bonkers. I've mentioned David Ray Griffin, a truly renowned philosopher and theologian who went completely off the deep-end and became one of the leading 9/11 Truther spokesmen. I was astonished ... and yet, one of the reasons I had always enjoyed reading him is that he was very open to some of the psychical research in which I am interested. In other words, just a bit "out there" for someone with his academic standing. I don't think it takes a whole lot of fertilizer for the conspiracy-prone mindset to blossom into a full-tilt beanstalk (what?). This is particularly true when there are religious underpinnings. How many people become religious zealots and at least start pretending to believe things they would have previously thought were laughable?

I also love the tactic of Certain Conspiracy Wackos to distance themselves from other comspiracy wackos. This is what Jim Di Eugenio used to do and why he became apoplectic whenever I pointed out the close parallels between the UFO community and the JFKA community. "WHAT???" screeched Jimbo in righteous indignation. "Those UFO nuts are NUTS. My goofy kitchen sink of beliefs is SERIOUS RESEARCH!!!" Uh-huh. Certain Conspiracy Wackos right here on this thread, who likewise hold and promote other wacky beliefs ("You could look it up," as Casey Stengel used to say), insist they are somehow above the fray and able to look down with disdain on the those Wacky 9/11 Truthers. And on it goes.

Mantik believes in a limo stop and Z-film alteration which have been thoroughly debunked. I give him credit for being equivocal on the acoustics conclusions perhaps realizing that they depend upon being synched with the Z-film.

Yes, it is called the contact point.

It is called a fictional story. Maybe your rifle has a point on the bridge, but none of the others do.

I asked you recently in another thread where to find that research, but you refused to answer. Apparently, it's reserved for private email chains.

The government’s own official explanation of 9/11 is a conspiracy theory.

No, It doesn't have to be much. It is a shell not an anvil. Somebody here suggested it was a stake mark. Maybe check that out.

 I thought you liked AI? You don't believe what it produced?

The bridge can cause a dimple in the center of the dent?

I see Brehm clapping his hands after JFK had slumped following the first shot that hit him. I conclude one of two things. Either Brehm was oblivious to the fact JFK had just been shot or he was glad that JFK had just been shot. Which one do you think is the case?

That JFK had been struck by the first shot just as he stated and he realized he had been struck by the first shot; hence he referenced slumping just like the other eyewitnesses.
