OK maybe LHO wasn't a jerk or maybe he was sometimes.... I didn't know him so I am looking around for those who did.
What did they think?
Mr. LIEBELER - Did you have any other contact with Oswald yourself, personally?
Mrs. GARNER - Yes. One time I went for my rent, it was a few days past due, the rent, and I mean, you know; when you let them go they wait too long and they don't ever get it. It was a few days later, I was going around the drive to see about my rent and he was starting out the drive to catch a bus on the corner, and when he saw me he turned around and looked, figured I was coming after the rent. I said, "Oswald, you got the rent? The landlady is coming for the rent." He said, "Yes, I have it."
He was fixing to go to the bus, so he turned around to walk up the drive to go get the money, and I said, "Go on where you have to go; I will get it later," and he just pushed me aside and went by me and went and got the money and handed it to me.
Mr. LIEBELER - Did he actually push you aside physically?
Mrs. GARNER - Yes, just like that, and I called to him and I said, "Never mind; go where you have to go and I will get it later," and he just took me like this and pushed me aside and just went, you know, just went by me like that.
Mr. LIEBELER - He actually laid his hands on you?
Mrs. GARNER - Put his hands on me just like that, and pushed me.
Mr. LIEBELER - Did he say anything?
Mrs. GARNER - He didn't say a thing. He come back and gave me the money and that was it.
Mr. LIEBELER - When was the next time you had any----
Mrs. GARNER - Well, I didn't talk to him any more than that, because I noticed how he was, wouldn't answer you when you say good morning or good evening, hello or good morning, so I just never bothered.
Does this show he was a jerk? Yup.
Does it mean he was an assassin? Nope.
Now a-days one could be arrested for assault.
I myself-have had more run-ins with landladies than I would ever care to dwell on....my strong suggestion---Buy your own home.
