Why are the CT's so obsessed with disproving the innocent Bus and Cab rides?

[Alan Ford]

Yes, it's fortunate that we have films and photos that confirm Oswald was not on the steps but that Baker did enter the building in a run so that we do not have to rely upon recollections.

Oh, so you know who Prayer Man is, Mr Smith? This is exciting---------------do tell! 

[Dan O'meara]

Right----------no pressure whatsoever on 11/22/63 or 11/23/63 to pin this thing on Mr Oswald and Mr Oswald alone. Is there no limit to your naivete, Mr O'Meara?

They started faking things 11/22/63

How is faking a cab ride pinning it on Oswald??
Talk about naive!
As far as the investigating authorities were concerned they had Oswald, they had his rifle on the 6th floor, a photo of him with the rifle, the fake ID that bought the rifle.
And you think they needed to fake a cab ride to get it over the line??
You're very silly sometimes.

And you're a very poor listener.

What they needed to get over the line was not just Mr Oswald as the shooter but Mr Oswald as the lone nut sans confederates. He not being a driver himself, he had to have received help from someone to get away from Dealey Plaza. That someone must be someone whose transporting of Mr Oswald is consistent with Mr Oswald's acting alone.

A bus driver and/or a cab driver are the only ones that fit this particular bill: people who could have transported Mr Oswald without even knowing him.

If a bus journey and/or a cab journey cannot be established, then Mr Oswald must have caught a ride in someone's else's car. Specter of conspiracy, hello.

They had Oswald admitting he'd taken a cab ride (Kelley's report)
Think about it.

Or are you saying it was known that Oswald didn't act alone and that had to be covered up??

[Alan Ford]

The interrogation reports have Mr Oswald 'admitting' this. Big difference!

Or are you saying it was known that Oswald didn't act alone and that had to be covered up??

No, it was known that Mr Oswald hadn't shot Pres. Kennedy. But the 'investigators' weren't interested in establishing facts, just putting together a lone nut narrative

But if he really was alone, then he had to take public transport back to his rooming house so why make that up and why do you doubt Oswald admitting he did exactly that?

It depends on what EXACTLY he told them:
---------------Bus ride(s) only
---------------Abortive bus ride followed by cab ride
---------------A. N. Other gave him a ride

The many problems with Mr Whaley's statements raise serious doubts as to the middle answer above, which is the official story of what Mr Oswald said. And the interrogation reports claim he only 'admitted' this the following day. Why would even a guilty Mr Oswald have wished to hide the fact that he had gotten a cab?

IF Mr Oswald told them something that suggested assistance from someone neither a bus driver nor a cab driver AND/OR ruled him out as the shooter of Officer Tippit, and if his claim were verified, then this claim would have been suppressed and a new, improved one put in his mouth in the interrogation reports.

Again, all that mattered was a lone nut narrative that could be sold to the public

I believe the verification for Lee's taxi ride from the Greyhound taxi stand to the intersection of Zangs and Beckley in Oakcliff, is the fact that Lee stated that the fare was 85 cents.    That would have been the correct fare for that trip....And how could Lee have known that if he hadn't traveled in that CITY cab.
