decides to go get his pistol

If that's what actually happened

tries to shoot a police office that asks him to stand up inside the movie theater.

There's no evidence of this whatsoever.

Some folks believe that it was Lee Oswald who shot JD Tippit ( even though Mrs Roberts said that Lee was standing outside the rooming house just two minutes before Mrs Markham saw JD Tippit shot by the killer)......  And they believe that Lee was in a panic and responded by shooting Tippit in the blink of an eye, but he wasn't in a panic at all just minutes later when Officer Nick Mc Donald approached him in the theater.....  Think about this improbability.....If Lee had been so irrational to shoot Tippit,  he would have been even more panicky when Mc Donald approached  and would have known that he was headed for the electric chair after shooting Tippit , he therefore would have known that he had nothing to lose if he could shoot McDonald and escape the theater....  The fact is...Lee showed no sign of being a cornered rat, who was ready to go down fighting.....

The reason investigations have focused on Oswald is because was the only one acting weird that day. Brought "curtain rods" in to work, and then told Captain Fritz that Frazier was lying. Then Oswald decides that "there would be no more work done that day" and so decides to go get his pistol and go to a movie without paying, and then tries to shoot a police office that asks him to stand up inside the movie theater.

I mean, you can kinda see why the investigations focus on Oswald. It's not like people are ganging up on him.

'go get his pistol'

It's what boys do. Especially that day. There was a killer on the loose, after all. Who knows, maybe he would catch the killer himself and wind up being a somebody..

Arresting police officer said so. I mean look at the pictures of him being dragged out of the theater, does that look like an innocent man?

How is an innocent man supposed to look, when he is being manhandled by several police officers?

Just how shallow can you get?

Weird or not, but it seems in Texas it's not so uncommon to carry a weapon.

and go to a movie without paying,

The point is that you assume all these things (except perhaps for the revolver) are factual, when in truth we've only been told that after the fact, by the people who were "investigating" an already dead suspect.

I mean, you can kinda see why the investigations focus on Oswald.

Sure, which could exactly be the reason why we were told those things.....

   Who: 1. Kills a POTUS, (2) Then travels cross town to get a hand gun, (3) Then sneaks into a movie theater, and (4) Then takes a seat inside the theater ??  A guy that has been double crossed, that's who!

The affidavit of Johnny Brewer makes no mention of Oswald having a gun, let alone trying to shoot an officer with one. Strange detail to leave out of an affidavit?
