No, did not happen.

Well, if you say, so, Mr. Anonymous Internet Guy! Thanks for setting us all straight.

I stated earlier that reading Bugliosi's book changed my mind regarding Oswald. I went from believing him to have been either a part of a conspiracy or the dupe of one (leaned in favor of a dupe). Reading the book changed my mind to a 90% certainty that Oswald acted alone.

I say 90% because Bugliosi did not address any of the details of a book called appointment in Dallas by Hugh MacDonald (a man with stellar credentials). I would have liked to hear an argument against his presentation.

Regarding the specifics of your question. I will admit that the "bullet ole in the windshield" is a new one to me. That lowers that 90% certainty and It is something I will look into in the future.

I'd start with Bugliosi's book, but I do not have access to it currently. Thanks for brining it to my attention.

When you post something that is not plausible, why do you think that you need to get more of a reply than what you got from me. Let’s see, you have to pick up an M-14 (What the SS had) lift it up head high to shoot over the windshield of your car, shoot, and put the gun away without having any seeing this, and later testifying about this?

Well, at least you posted some sort of opinion this time, even if it is half-assed. The point is that FR isn’t an elementary school playground where we just scream back and forth, “Yes it is” “No it isn’t” “Yes it is”. Try saying why it isn’t next time, or don’t waste bandwidth.

The book “The Devil’s Chessboard: Allen Dulles and The Rise of America’s Secret Government” tells the reader EXACTLY who killed JFK. Very informative book about the Cold War and the out of control US spy apparatus.

I’ll ask again. Why not shoot Kennedy as he was approaching the book depository or directly underneath the sniper’s nest? Why wait until the car turns and is moving away? I’ll also reiterate my disbelief that a man who just murdered the President and gets out of the building and is safe at his place of residence, leaves the safety of that place and wanders the streets murdering a Police Officer. That makes zero sense.

Oswald did it. Maybe he was played and used by others, but I don’t buy the idea that Kennedy was some great threat to the Deep State — or that GHW Bush had the will, brains, or commanding presence to pull off a conspiracy.

LBJ and George H.W. Bush were pals. In H.W. Bush’s retarded war mongering son’s book “Decision Points”, he describes how LBJ visited his grandfather’s mansion one Christmas when he was a boy.

Doesn’t surprise me one bit.

Bush and LBJ built a Texas UniParty Deep state together.....

Bush was a minor league choir boy compared to LBJ.

Half assed reply? You make some half-baked accusation that makes no sense, and expect us to accept it with zero proof. Sit down.

Who knows? maybe some noise made Oswald hesitate. You ever shoot someone head on? unless you come up with something better, then sit down.

Yea, I could picked a better one. This one is better:

https://www.inquirer.com/philly/news/Shooting_holes_in_theory_that_a_Secret_Service_agent_killed_President_Kennedy.html

I was in the Plaza two weeks ago. As always I am struck by how small a space it really is. I think witnesses would of commented on the different sounds that a bolt action and a SA make and where the origin of the shot came from. The audio from the time isn’t all that good, but I hear three shots that all sound the same decibel level and have similar echoes.

Yes, I have shot someone head on. Don’t tell me to sit down. After what you’ve seen the Intelligence community and our Department of “Justice” do to Trump and his supporters, I’d put nothing past them anymore.

I also notice that you didn’t address the bizarre actions Oswald took after killing Kennedy and getting away.

What was so bizarre? He went home, changed, and went walking towards the highway. To escape Dallas? No one knows. Officer Tippet questions him and he gets gunned down. Witnesses follow him to the Texas Movie Theater. Arrested.

LOL what the hell is wrong with you? I stated a theory I heard about JFK and said it sounded plausible. That's it. I don't necessarily believe it is the truth and I don't give a damn who agrees with it.

You appear to be arguing with the voices in your head. And you appear to be losing.
