Yes, but he's not a contrarian, someone arguing just for the joy of arguing and for no other purpose. That's a contrarian to me. He has a purpose: he's an Oswald defender. It's a weird Oswald-as-Dreyfus view.

This is a common whine by people who spin and misrepresent the evidence in order to be Oswald prosecutors.

Of course no one looks at an event, reconstructs it, by looking at one piece of information alone. And ignoring all of the other pieces. You look at them in their totality and not as isolated blocks. If you applied this type of thinking to any other event then it would be impossible to come to any conclusion as to what happened.

As it should be.  Several pieces of non-evidence, unsubstantiated claims, or questionable, tainted, or unverifiable circumstantial evidence do not magically combine to give anybody a "reliable conclusion as to what happened".  Your desire to have an answer doesn't justify making one up out of whole cloth.

John "Abt" Iacoletti,

How many bad guys do you figure were involved, altogether, in the planning, the "patsy-ing," the shooting, and the all-important cover up?

Thousands, or just hundreds?

Nice strawman.  Let's say the answer is 0 though.  Does that somehow prove that Oswald did it?

Everything saying "X" occurred can be isolated and dismissed as just random events. Poof, event "X" disappears, it never happens.

The contrarian knows as well as anyone here that Oswald did it.  He is just playing endless OJ defense attorney for some reason that only a psychiatrist could explain.  One of two people in the entire history of this forum that I refuse to discuss the case with. I will engage with the most outlandish loons - the Hickey did it or JFK faked his death with an exploding sock puppet people - but not this contrarian.

Do you really think (sic) none of the evidence laid out in the Warren Report was fabricated by the bad guys?
