The FACT is that SS agents did ride on the back and sides of JFK's limo at various points during the motorcade in Dallas. It's there in the video and photographic evidence. Look it up.
All of you JFK CTists make a big deal about this, as if it meant that the SS was off the limo for the entirety of the motorcade. They weren't. You're implying that someone got the SS off his limo so there would be an open shot at JFK. That wasn't true for many points along the motorcade route. Being waved off the limo at Love Field apparently had no effect on what the SS agents did during the motorcade - they WERE on the limo at various times during the motorcade.
Here's SS Agent Hill riding the back of the limo as it makes the turn onto - I believe - Main Street from Harwood, a mere 9 blocks away from the turn at Houston onto Elm:
They were off the limo when it turned onto Elm because that was the approach to the Stemmons Fwy. The limo would have been accelerating to freeway speed, and the SS never rode on the limo at high speed.
Even if the SS had ridden the limo from Love Field and for the length of the motorcade, they would still have hopped off once the limo turned onto Elm and headed for the Stemmons.
So what's the point of bringing up the SS being waved off the car at Love Field? Well, there is no point. It's just another ignorant red herring thrown out to the masses who don't have the intellectual wherewithal to ask the obvious follow-up questions.
