(3,526 posts)....the only shooter that day in Dallas. They would rather believe:
* a computer graphics simulation that "proves" a single bullet passed through two grown men without any noticeable deformation and no traces of flesh or fabric.
* Oswald used a beat-up Mannlicher-Carcano rifle that the FBI refused to test fire until repairs were made to the scope (it was loose), trigger mechanism, and bolt action (it tended to stick).
* Oswald was a very good shot when his Marine Corps record proves otherwise.
* Oswald was a total malcontent when the evidence proves that while he was in the Marine Corps he held the highest security clearance at that time (Crypto) and was a radar operator for the U2 flights out of the Atsugi base in Japan.
* Oswald "defected" to the USSR for a year and returned with absolutely no negative repercussions.
* Oswald had no relationship with George DeMohrenschildt, a wealthy refugee from Russia who was later confirmed to be a CIA contract agent with a provable connection with George H. W. Bush, a long-term CIA operative based in Texas.
I could go on but I just don't have the time this morning. There are just too many questions that the "Oswald was a lone nut" crowd want to answer with the Warren Commission work of fiction. The late Harold Weisberg, with whom I had the opportunity to talk with personally, completely dismantled the Warren Commission....I wish he were still among us.
