Or to find him suspicious because of his reaction to hearing sirens approaching?

What reaction?  He just "looked scared and funny" whatever that means.

Yes, but the Oswald defenders say you can't look at the entire context of his actions. Instead, each of his actions have to be considered in isolation and stripped from any context in which he acted. It's like Oswald acting in a giant isolated bubble with nothing going on.

Here, he was just looking at shoes. All of the other incidents around him must not be included.

He just left the TSBD. He just caught a bus. He just caught a cab. He just went to his room. He just walked down the street. He just looked at shoes. He just went into a theater. This is how you're supposed to judge his actions.

Yes, it's much more rational to look at a guy looking in the windows of a shoe store and think "just killed a cop".

Maybe on Planet CK it would be rational to ignore someone someone ducking into the alcove of your store as police cars go by and not have your suspicions aroused, but here on Planet Earth, Brewer's reaction is perfectly understandable and completely rational.

Next up: resident of Planet CK tries to imply it was irrational for the Davis sisters to suspect Saint Patsy had just killed a cop.

When you have no supporting evidence for any of his supposed actions that is where you wind up.

This fabricated story was created to involve Brewer when the actual evidence shows that he was most likely not involved.

If that's your best take on the events surrounding the capture of the cop killer then you will have to repeat third grade again. Do try harder next time.

That's an excellent summation of the CT method. Of course such a defense would be laughed out of court. Any half decent prosecutor would construct a narrative that connects the evidence in a logical fashion leaving the defense with a pile of parts that simply can't be constructed into a satisfactory account.

Of course Oswald would appeal on the grounds that his attorney was an idiot but that would simply delay the obvious i.e. guilty on two counts of murder.
