(31,981 posts)Plenty of people have shot three shots through maple trees at that angle with a car moving away from them at that distance under those conditions (shooting a president and wanting to get away). I'm sure there are "plenty" that have done all that. Why was Oswald seen after the assassination on the 2nd floor getting stuff out of vending machines? I guess after you have shot the President you really want a candy bar rather than trying to get out of there.
To accept Oswald as the lone gunmen you also have to accept that he was the luckiest assassin in history. Assassins usually have to go to their intended target to try and kill them. But not Oswald. He got a job at a place where --- imagine his astounding luck -- his target scheduled a motorcade right next to his building! Kennedy came to him and diverted into a slow moving circle around the Book Building. How convenient! An assassin who does not even need to take time off work to do his job!
