LOL.  First, there is no getting away with assassinating the president.  The act entails arrest or death.  Oswald recognized that which is why he left his wedding ring and money with his wife.  But if he wanted to at least try to escape what would be better - standing out in the crowd at the airport and shooting JFK in the direct presence of the Secret Service and an angry mob or secluding himself in a building some distance away?  Caprio believes that standing out in the open in the presence of a large crowd and secret service detail would have enhanced Oswald's chance of escape! Whew.  How did that work out for Sirhan Sirhain, Sqeaky Froamm, John Hinckley, and Leon Czolgosz?

So you believe that he would be "out in the open" at the airport? Why?

No wonder he can't figure out what year Benavides died.

The cognitive dissonance is beyond belief.

Doesn?t this strike anyone as quite odd?  I mean generally if you want to try and get away with a crime I would imagine it would help to do it where NO ONE KNOWS WHO YOU ARE!  In 1963 they did NOT have the type of equipment they have now to quickly ID you and track you via GPS and other methods, so if you are unknown this greatly increases your chances of getting away with it!  As for the claim of ?Well he wanted to be famous? we have to go by his behavior after he was arrested! Did it strike anyone as wanting to be famous?

Also, the excuse DVP gave me years ago for not committing the crime at Love Field was that he couldn?t get his rifle there without being seen!  First of all, he didn?t need ?his? rifle (something I don?t think ever existed by the way) as he could have used a pistol instead and that could have easily been hidden from a cab driver (much better than a bus scenario as again it creates less people who can remember you). 

Secondly, don?t you think the SAME logic applies to getting a ride from Wes Frazier and then lugging the rifle two to three blocks to the TSBD and then lugging it around until you hide it in the TSBD for later use?  These were people who KNEW you too by sight and in some cases by NAME!

Also, it would seem DP was a much tougher place to get away from.  At the airport he could have dropped the gun and disappeared into the crowd and then even got on a flight out of town.  This sounds much more plausible than the OFFICIAL scenario to me.

When one adds in the fact LHO was NOT very good with a rifle this would seem to make this the ONLY scenario to me.

What are your thoughts on this?

Lee Thought that he was involved in a hoax that was similar to the Walker hoax.    He thought that it would appear as though he had attempted to shoot JFK ( just as it appeared that he had attempted to shoot Walker)   He WANTED to be identified as the assailant that had "fired at" JFK .     

You may recall that Fidel Castro had publicly announced that if high officials in the United States ( Meaning JFK)  were plotting his assassination then they themselves should be prepared to be assassinated...

Since Lee thought that Castro would be happy with a fellow "communist revolutionary" who had attempted to assassinate JFK , Lee thought that the attempt to shoot JFK would be his ticket to infiltrate Castro's island Bastion.

Thus he welcomed the "evidence" that supported that plot.....   He wanted the attempt to occur near his place of employment...( the TSBD)  and he wanted the carcano to be found in the building ....

He was simply too trusting and naive to realize that there was another plot to actually murder JFK  while he was being duped into the hoax scenario.

Down the rabbit hole we go.  Let's see.  Maybe because you suggested that Oswald would shoot JFK with a pistol.  That entails getting fairly close to him.  Within a few feet.  How would he have done that at Love Field from any place accessible to the public without being "out in the open."  Seemingly the only opportunity to shoot JFK with a pistol at Love Field would be to stand among the crowd as JFK shook hands with people.  How about you explain it though since this is your nutty premise?

Would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic and sad.

Speaking of pathetic and sad:

Oswald wanted to be famous and expected to be caught and arrested.  That's why he tried to escape and denied doing it.

So this means that you have NO answer. No surprise there.
