Part 1 of 6: No Motive, plus the Silenced Witnesses

This assclown is regurgitating lots of the long ago debunked arguments against Oswald's guilt. Let's examine them one
by one.
1. Oswald's motive.
It is completely unnecessary to prove what Oswald's motive was. That's something only Oswald knew and he never told us
what it was. He had a motive. We will never know what it was, although it is fun to guess. The evidence proves Oswald was
the assassin. No need to prove why.
2. Houston vs. Elm
I've never understood why anyone would second guess Oswald's successful choice. Usually the Monday morning quarterbacks
second guess the losing coach, not the winning one. That said, choosing to fire the shots on Houston present a different
set of problems. For starters, if you look at the picture of the crosshairs trained on the guy in the back seat, that would have
been Connally's seat. JFK was behind Connally, so there would not have been a clear shot. If he took the shot while the limo
was approaching the TSBD, he would have been facing the entire Secret Service protection detail. There was a much better
chance of him being seen and subject to return fire. They might have also spotted him before he got off the first shot and
moved to get JFK out of harm's way. By waiting until both limos had passed the sniper's nest, he could bushwack JFK with
little chance of return fire. The tree only blocked the view from the sniper's nest for a few seconds. Oswald probably got
his first shot off before the limo went under the tree and after it passed the tree, there were no obstructions at all. The
silliest part of this argument is that whoever the shooter was, he would have faced the same choice between Houston or
Elm and that shooter chose Elm. There is ample evidence that shooter was Oswald.
3. Four is the magic number
He asks why Oswald would try the assassination with only four bullets. I wonder if he ever stopped to consider that was all
that Oswald had left. No Carcano ammo was found at his rooming house or the Paine residence. Does this idiot think it would
have made more sense had somebody else attempt the assassination with just four bullets.
4. The Carcano's assembly tool.
This is a red herring. We don't know what Oswald used to assemble the rifle nor do we need to know. We know that he did
assemble the rifle in the TSBD. How do we know that? The rifle had to be disassembled to fit in the bag and the print found
on the barrel could only have been placed there with the rifle disassembled. Let's give Oswald some credit. He knew he was
going to have to reassemble the rifle. He would have either known where he could get a screwdriver at the TSBD or he would
have brought something along with him. Maybe it was a dime. Who knows? Who cares? If somebody else shot JFK with the
rifle, do we know what tool that person used?
5. How did Oswald wipe down the Carcano?
The question assumes Oswald did wipe down the Carcano. There is no evidence that he did. There wasn't much reason for
him to do so. He knew he was going to leave his rifle at the TSBD and he had to know it would be found. Unless he was
really dumb, he would have known it would be traced to him. Why bother wiping the prints off of it?
6. Lee Oswald, assassin of fall guy
This guy asks if Oswald was capable of devising and executing the assassination. What was difficult about it. He needed to
smuggle his rifle into work, find a spot he would have to himself when the motorcade drove by, the stick the rifle out the
window and shoot a guy a short distance away. What about any of that would be beyond Oswald's capability. I realize
Oswald was a failure at most things he attempted in his lifetime but if finally succeeded at something, and the CTs want
to deny him the credit.
He goes on to try to make the argument that Oswald didn't have a violent nature. Right. That's why he murdered Tippit 45
minutes after murdering JFK. The he pulled his gun on the cops who tried to arrest him. What a sweetheart of a guy.
