you said: "The Jacketed bullet that hit Kennedy in the back, 5 1/2 from his Mastoid Process[bone behind your ear lobe] one inch to the right of his spine, would have entered Connelly's back with the force of a .357 Magnum. Think about that."

I did think about it, that's why I don't think Connelly was seriously hurt yet, as he was still able to turn around to look at the President and say Oh, no,no,no.

The president's neck shot came at around Zapruder clip #226. Look at post 247 to view clip #274. (Post 247 has clip 274 ...it's a CONSPIRACY I tell ya!). Anyway - Connelly doesn't look like he's been hit by a 357 magnum - yet. Also supported by his wife's testomony. (I say the wrist/chest shot is around clip 291).

Ok, let's try this again.

Kennedy get hit in the upper back with a 161 grain bullet traveling at 2000 Feet a Second which exits out his neck and it's able to hit Connelly with the force of a .357 Magnum.

Now do you get it?

I hope you understand by now that bullets don't make one inch deep wounds in flesh unless they're a BB gun.

This is from the other camera there at Dealey. Notice which way John Kennedy is thrown. The sequence starts with the head shot on frame 2. I used Paint Shop pro 5 to look at the individual frames.
