re: New JFK Assaination Records Released

I never did either except that the ‘witness’ that saw the men by the grassy knoll ended up dead before the warren commission’s investigation was complete

Don’t you see, if it were TOO GOOD, it wouldn’t be obvious enough to scare the public. The conspiracy has to be just sloppy enough to demonstrate what they are capable of but good enough to get away with it.

It’s a fine balancing act.

“Quick, lay this bullet on Connelly’s stretcher.”

“Wait, this is a little too prestine. Shouldn’t there be markings?”

“You’re right, add rifling"...

*nodding & chuckling*

That's exactly how I imagine the scripts for their plotting & planning. (I'm gonna guess that you have stacks of old MAD Magazines. )

So many bullsh*t "Official Story" narratives out there to lampoon, so little time. Yup -- this manufactured "sloppiness" has long been an art form. It sure helps to have the New York Times and CNN as partners to help frame any legit investigator as "CT kooks".

Yes but LHO shoots down the street towards the overpass - people in front of the grassy knoll look to their right in the film when the last shot is fired - if that tall building caused an echo - wouldn’t that be from their left?

A shot from directly behind Kennedy would have echoed off of the fence at the Grassy Knoll. As I said before, the sound stuff is nearly impossible to substantiate as far as I'm concerned. Unless you had good listening devices in Dealy Plaza when it happened, what it all sounded like to people freaking out having just witnessed the president's head explode is something less than good evidence to me.

ETA: I also think that the lack of a thorough forensic examination of the vehicle made ever finding out what actually happened a near impossibility. Now, supposedly LBJ ordered the vehicle cleaned and repaired almost immediately, but that could be conspiracy BS as well, but the fact remains that the vehicle never really went under a microscope.

Marcello was responsible for both JFK and Bobby getting whacked.


Marcello was also a contractor for the CIA. He would have never gone after either if he didn't know he could get away with it.

Not to mention he had LBJ in his back pocket also. Hoover had dirt on EVERYONE!!

Robert Kennedy should have never went after Marcello like he did.....bad mistake.

Agreed - especially dropping Marcello off in the middle of the jungle - yikes

Part of my thinking is that after passing through Kennedy and Connelly’s bodies, the bullet probably barely embedded into the thigh. If it was just a very superficial wound, it could have fallen out. Foreign objects inserted into bodies routinely fall out when the body is moved.

(Edit: Subdermally inserted birth control medication for women routinely falls out and they have to return to the OBGYN to reinsert it.)

What was the extent of Connelly’s thigh wound?

---

It was found on Kennedy's stretcher. So after all of the "oomf" it lost, it managed to grow legs and jump on his stretcher?

Oh and after losing all the "oomf" it managed to not deform at all?

You obviously don’t have much experience with rifle bullets or hunting if you think that bullet went through a guys dome and another ones shoulder.

Is that bullet made out of some indestructible metal? This is what most bullets look like after hitting a “target.”

---

First, the so-called “pristine” bullet wasn’t one of the ones that hit JFK in the skull.

Second, there have been at least a dozen or so forensic recreations of the shot in question that demonstrate that a bullet passing through the thoracic cavities of two people can still maintain a cylindrical shape. May not be probable, but far from impossible.

Edit: And again, the CIA/Mob was smart enough to plant a bullet with rifling marks but not smart enough to plant a deformed bullet?

You’re mistaken. It was found on Connelly’s stretcher.

Marcello was responsible for both JFK and Bobby getting whacked. Oswald & Ruby were both connected to the mob. Robert Kennedy should have never went after Marcello like he did.....bad mistake.

Yeah, I think this is probably closer to the truth than any CIA involvement. Oswald was a useful patsy that they found, but had to be eliminated. How was Woody Harrelson's dad involved, though?
