What If Grassy Knoll Sounds And Smoke Were "Only" A Diversion?--A Fun Update!

[Bill Brown]

Ed Hoffman saw two men behind the fence break down a rifle.

Wow.  You really believe that huh.

John-

At this late date, it seems impossible to credit or discredit Ed Hoffman. I prefer witnesses interviewed early after Nov. 22, before "sides were chosen."

I think the Grassy Knoll smoke-and-shot show was a diversion. The medical evidence appears to be JFK was struck from behind. So even if Hoffman's recollections are correct, the Grassy Knoll gunman either missed (from very short range), never got into position to get off a good shot, or just fired intentionally smoky shots, possibly from a handgun.

Interestingly, Jack Ruby carried a snub-nose, the type of weapon best for making a lot of noise and releasing a lot of smoke.

He told his wife and another friend about it the same day.

LOL.  If adding elements to a story or changing the details discredits a witness then the same goes for Howard Brennan, Nick McDonald, Helen Markham, Marina Oswald, Charles Givens, Gerald Hill, William Whaley, and any number of other witnesses that you rely on to make your case against Oswald.

Run away much?

I just want the record to show that John Iacoletti believes Ed Hoffman's story.

Run away much?

Mytton claimed the "only unaccounted person seen with a rifle in Dealey Plaza was a slender white male seen on the 6th floor of the Texas School Book Depository", which is demonstrably false.  It has nothing to do with what I believe.  Hoffman said he saw another person with a rifle, just like Brennan said he saw a white male on the 6th floor with a rifle.  You accept Brennan and reject Hoffman because Brennan said something you want to hear.

Well go ahead and demonstrate who else besides Oswald was seen with a rifle in Dealey Plaza?
And then explain how Oswald's rifle with his prints and shirt fibers were found on the same floor?
Then explain why the Sniper's nest area where Oswald was seen was covered with his prints?
Then explain why Oswald left the building immediately?
Then explain why Oswald felt the need to kill a Police Officer, the first Dallas Police Officer killed on duty by gunfire since 1960?
Then explain why Oswald tried to kill more Police at the Texas Theater?

Btw this time please support your opinions with evidence, k!
