That it is based on Buglosi's "Four Days In November" (his abridgement of "Reclaiming History",covers the same material but with less detail)indicates they are not going for a conspriacy angle, but that will not keep the kooks from going crazy. In fact, they will have an epic hissy fit over the fact it is based on Bugliosi's work since he has become their Great Satan since "Reclaiming History" came out.

Indeed. After reading RH, I don't see how anyone could have any doubt at all that it was LHO acting alone, much less a "reasonable" doubt.
 
The man mainly responsible for killing JFK was Ed Clark, the Austin Tx lawyer in charge of LBJ's basic power base in Tx. There were three shooters including Oswald.

Barr McClellan is not just another swinging dick with a theory, he was a member of the A team. The book has a terrifying ring of authenticity.

No, there was one shooter - Oswald. He's the man responsible for JFK 's death.

Was he the one played by George Peppard?

Having the terrifying ring of authenticity must make it a pretty good novel. Any cool plot twists? Most cracking works of fiction sport cool plot twists.

Failure out of the gate on the ballistic evidence alone, and let me throw a little more cold water on that little theory.

In the real world, having three shooters on any type of target doesn't multiply the chances of success, it multiplies the chance of failure.

It also multiplies the chance of disclosure if you want to bring the multiple shooter conspiracy theory into the real world.

Except what is in that book aren't hard facts and the question has been settled with the answer of LHO dunnit. If you want to be closed minded about it, well I hope that philosophy works for you, it sure doesn't for me. I wasn't sure it was LHO until I watched all the conspiracy theories get shredded within the thread I linked, and it's predecessor thread. I recommended you review them if you want to look at the assassination critically and not just swallow what some book or web site spoon feeds to you.
 
Oh look. Another LBJ Mac Wallace book.

If everything is set in stone why are there so many books with the same idea that all disagree on the facts. Only.three shooters ? Does this rely on one witness and a fingerprint?

That's nice.

It's also convenient. With your position, you don't have to defend it against critical examination, not to mention open yourself to developing a greater degree of critical thinking skills. Your ego is protected.

Putting your hands over your ears, metaphorically speaking, means that you not only can'thear, you also can't listen.
 
I think the deniers here are in contempt of the Clinton, Louisiana evidence for Shaw, Oswald, and Ferrie being seen together.


The cop asked Shaw for his driver's license and it said "Clay Shaw". Oswald told the town councilman "My name is Lee Harvey Oswald."


This isn't good enough for deniers.

My thoughts on the JFK Assassination?

Average shooting ability displayed by Lee Oswald.

I've already identified myself as a reformed JFK CT loon. I am still open to the idea that Oswald at least told someone else he was going to kill JFK only because I can't see how he could keep it to himself. Oswald was a wannabee-show-off and the odds are good he told someone he wanted to impress.

That said, bottom line:

Oswald did it all by his lonesome. It was an easy shot.

I see you're branching out from physics kookery. Will you be supporting any of you assertions with evidence in this thread.

It is perfectly good if the question happens to be "Did Garrison at any point uncover evidence of a gay sub culture in his city?"

As evidence of the conspiracy to murder JFK? Less so.

There are assassination-related reasons for Oswald to try and get a job at the Clinton Asylum. There are no gay reasons for that trip.


Ferrie told Garrison's investigation their subpeona would make him a dead man. The commonality is clearly assassination-related vs gay.


Read DiEugenio's 'Destiny Betrayed'. It uses ARRB information to exonerate Garrison.

Maybe not to you.

I don't believe Garrison's Gay Mafia theory anymore than your CIA theory, and the poll results reflect your success in making your case.
