Mr. SPECTER.  Governor, you have described hearing a first shot and a third shot. Did you hear a second shot?
Governor CONNALLY. No; I did not.
Does that make any sense?
Quote
Governor CONNALLY. .... Again my trend of thought just happened to be, I suppose along this line, I immediately thought that this--that I had been shot. I knew it when I just looked down and I was covered with blood, and the thought immediately passed through my mind that there were either two or three people involved or more in this or someone was shooting with an automatic rifle.
Why... [if he only heard 2 shots] would Connally say that?

Because most of the witnesses were interviewed long after the "3 shots" narrative was firmly established and media saturated.


John. If the shots all originated from the same place, and the same rifle, then all shots would have sounded pretty much alike.....  A large percentage of the ear witnesses said that the first shot sounded different than the following shots......That first Boom was probably the signal to the shooters to open fire.....And I believe it was a firecracker.   I also believe that one of the shooters was using a silencer equipped weapon.

The thread is Conspiracist Contradictions.
J B Connally insisted until he died that he was not struck by the same bullet as the president.
However he said that he fully supported the conclusions of the Warren Report.

That would be in itself a totally outrageous contradiction.

Didn't some of those witnesses say they initially thought the first report was a "firecracker" or "backfire", but as they continued to hear further shots, they figured all the reports were gunshots?

Meaning their first impression was that the loud report was something innocent and incidental, but upon hearing more such reports, it dawned on them that it was something intentional and sinister.

Precisely... "Detective Cannon".
