A question about Oswald

[Jon Banks]

So what? You don't think OJ ever spoke positively about Nicole? Things change.

The “what” is that there’s evidence that counters your assumption and no evidence that he disliked JFK.

Whatever Oswald’s true feelings about Cuba, neither the Bay of Pigs, nor the Cuban Missile Crisis mattered to him apparently.

[John Iacoletti]

Oswald was a political kook. 

Not nearly as politically kooky as “Richard Smith”.

He had demonstrative a willingness to commit a political assassination with Walker.

LOL

[Richard Smith]

If that's true, why did Lee speak positively of JFK in 1962 and 1963?

If he was so pro-Cuba, one wouldn't expect him to have told Marina and others that he liked Kennedy.

Oswald could have "liked" JFK the person, but still committed the act.  The assassination was a political act.   If it had been Nixon, LBJ or anyone else in that car as President, he would have still committed the act.  It was not personal but political.   Even if you disagree with that and think Oswald was behaving in some inconsistent way from how you think that assassin would have acted, it does not eliminate the evidence which links Oswald to the crime beyond any doubt.  His rifle was left at the scene of the crime.

Even though it is only an educated guess, a lot of people have stated what they believe was going through LHO’s mind. Here is what his brother Robert Oswald had to say on page 214 of his book “Lee”:

At that moment, Lee was not shooting at a human being but at a prominent political figure who was receiving the applause of the crowd.
This was his final protest to a world that had ignored him, sometimes mocked him, and always failed to acknowledge his superiority.

Sadly, for JD Tippit and his friends and family, it was not his final act of violence. And while Jack Ruby was very wrong to take justice into his own hands, it is understandable how someone with Ruby’s temperament could ambush LHO as he did.

Correct. I'm not arguing that the lack of a clear political motive exonerates him.

All I'm saying is, it's difficult to pin down a motive (if he did it) because there's really no evidence that he had a negative opinion of JFK.

It has not been proven that the carcano was owned by Lee Oswald, but for the for this rebuttal I'll accept that it was Lee's rifle.

IF  ??  It was his rifle and he fired it from the sixth floor window? ...... Don't you think he would have known a a far better place to stash the rifle than under a pallet of boxes of books that was clearly along  the path he would have taken to escape the sixth floor.     Doesn't that seem just a bit strange to you???

It absolutely SCREAMS of a staged scene and yet very few recognize it as such.

Whoever stashed that rifle beneath those boxes of books WANTED it to be found and point to Lee Oswald.

[Zeon Mason]

And if that MC rifle was actually inside of the pallet rather than where they photographed it between 2 rows of boxes then that’s a real problem to explain.

Because if the rifle was inside a  pallet stacked full of boxes it’s impossible Oswald could have put it there post shots because that takes way too long and he would certainly NOT have been able to get to the 2nd floor lunchroom by 90 sec post shots even if he used an elevator with an accomplice returning elevator to 5th floor after dropping Oswald off on the 2nd floor.

So then there’s basically only 2 options left unless it can be proved the rifle was planted post shots by the Will Fritz/Lt.Day tag team.

1. Oswald planted the MC rifle BEFORE shots were fired for some reason
2. The conspirator shooter planted the rifle beforehand

In Either case, the MC rifle was therefore not the weapon used to shoot JFK

Question why would either Oswald or a conspirator shooter plant a rifle that wasn’t fired recently and plant the rifle wedged inside a pallet of boxes, if the purpose was to make it look like that rifle was the murder weapon?

Oswald is linked to the rifle in every conceivable way absent a time machine.  What better place was available for him to hide the rifle under the circumstances?  Of course it was going to be found no matter where he left it in the building.  He had just assassinated the president.  The authorities would have turned that place upside down until they found it.  Here is a better question than why he didn't hide his rifle better.  Why was his rifle there at all? Oswald was given a chance to explain but instead he lied about owing a rifle.  Why would he do that? There are fired shell casings found next to the window from which witnesses saw the rifle pointed at JFK motorcade at the moment of the assassination.  Oswald is the only TSBD employee to leave identifiable prints on the SN boxes.   He fled the scene.  Murdered a police officer.  It is a slam dunk of guilt.
