Here's an excellent, very concise new Errol Morris documentary on Umbrella Man. Why was this guy under a black umbrella on a beautiful sunny day? Did he shoot JFK?

Shooting a rifle while holding an umbrella highly improves aim, I've heard.

Yeah, plus even if you're without a firearm, you can poke someone's eye out with one of those things.

I thought it was settled and it was the driver what done it, now you're saying a man with an umbrella might be responsible. Who is he the Penguin?

The umbrella was also claimed to fire a dart that paralyzed JFK.

So, you know, he couldn't... dodge... the bullets.

Why was this guy under a black umbrella on a beautiful sunny day?

Maybe he wanted to stay out of the sun?

I thought that a purple knock out gas came out of the tip.

Cool video.

Nope.

 

[Alferd_Packer]

Nope.

And you know this, how?

I don't know for sure, but there's a more likely explanation--did you watch the doc?

Did the kooks really claim that?

Wow, once again shows in what kind of warped reality CTists live.

Hmmmm well maybe the guy with the umbrella had the rifle equivalent of the mythical Japanese arrow that when fired; goes around the earth and strike its enemy from behind?

Not jes' any kook, but Col. L. Fletcher Prouty himself, who you may know better as Mr. X(Donald Sutherland) in Oliver Stone's JFK.
