To paraphrase Inspector Clouseau, in the contrarian world everyone is a suspect, and no one is a suspect. These contrarians go on and on and on attacking the evidence against Oswald as fabricated or manipulated but then refuse to acknowledge that they are implying a conspiracy. How or why all the evidence is suspect is left unaddressed. They won't say. They have "no burden of proof." It is just theoretically not impossible, and no one can disprove it to their subjective satisfaction because the time machine has not been invented. In contrast, every conceivable counter explanation to Oswald's guilt is entertained even if there is not a scintilla of support and the narrative makes no sense. Round and round it goes down the rabbit hole.
Martin repeatedly tells us that "anyone" could have circled the "PP" notation on the Klein's form confirming that the ordered rifle was sent by parcel post to Oswald's PO Box. ANYONE. LOL. How many people would have access to this form? It was taken from Klein's own records. Did everyone have access to the form? Why would this someone go around circling "PP" on the Klein's forms? He refuses to say he is implying a conspiracy to frame Oswald by making this argument. Is Martin suggesting that some loon broke into the Klein's records just to circle "PP" on forms? He refuses to accept that the form proves that Oswald was sent a rifle. He lives in the defense attorney world where nothing can be known or proven. The point seems to be to just extend the discussion. Only a mental health expert could say exactly why. Most of the general public expresses a belief in ghosts, UFO, Bigfoot and JFK conspiracies because that is more fun than the alternative. Many of them don't actually believe it. The loons who frequent this forum, however, are either paranoid true believers or the have deep held insecurities and are trying to draw attention to themselves and prove to the world how smart they are by taking a contrarian position to the established facts. Ironically very similar to Oswald himself.
Wow, what an amazing load of BS.
It's very very simple; the person who relies on evidence (as you are doing) needs to authenticate that evidence. You constantly keep asking people like me to accept your "evidence" on faith, just because you can't defend and/or authenticate it and you most certainly can't image any other scenario than the official narrative. It is a massive display of just how little confidence you have in the flawed and questionable evidence you desperately rely on.

I don't know how many people had access to the Klein's form and/or microfilm and neither do you. You don't even know where the microfilm was between the moment the FBI took it from Klein's on 11/23/63 and the moment it was handed over to the WC and shown to Waldman. According to you - and this is where the faith comes in - the form must be authentic because you can't believe that anybody else could have manipulated the evidence. There was an easy way for the WC to authenticate Waldman 7, by simply asking Westra to confirm his handwriting on that form. The fact that they did not do so, should tell you something, but it probably won't.
I don't care what you think is possible or likely or not. The evidence needs to speak for itself and for that it needs to be authenticated. Instead of that we get your commentary about why the document, in your opinion, is credible even without authentication. It's pathetic.
