The Limo Bullet Fragments....

Ok, where did the get the idea that a wind coming from the southeast would blow towards the TSBD?

Sorry, I should have said SW. The wind was coming from the south-west. So Oswald firing in the south-west direction from the south east corner of the TSBD was firing into the wind.

So now that you've got the wind direction correct....  Perhaps you can work on getting the basic fact correct.

Lee Oswald did not fire a rifle from that SE corner window....

A person firing at the motorcade from that window would be shooting closer to south than to southwest.  The building doesn't face due south.

Well, the wind was generally in the opposite direction to whatever direction a line from the SN to JFK was:

What is your "wind direction" arrow based on?

The wind is not really strong but there are gusts.  These gusts can be seen here:

1. Muchmore film shows wind blowing clothing:




2. Flags on President's limo catch gusts from time to time and point straight back.

3. Blue scarf on lady standing on north side of Elm seen just to left (east) of Stemmons sign in zfilm appears to keep moving to left side.

If you just mean roughly in that general direction, then I'm with you.  Elm is not straight.  "Towards the TSBD" is a bit of a stretch unless you just mean in very rough terms.

Surely the wind is blowing towards the TSBD, no matter which direction it is coming from.
