Spin away. No SINGLE person used a rifle in attempting to kill a POTUS. A rifle is most appropriate when a TEAM of shooters are employed.

LHO was a poor shot according to the Marines and then he went 4 years with NO practice. If he was the true killer he would have attempted something up close. Especially if we consider the shooting exhibition you LNers give him credit for in the JDT murder.

[Excerpt]

Attempted Assassination Attempts in America
-Wikipedia

October 29, 1994: Francisco Martin Duran fired at least 29 shots with a semi-automatic rifle at the White House from a fence overlooking the north lawn, thinking that Clinton was among the men in dark suits standing there (Clinton was inside). Three tourists, Harry Rakosky, Ken Davis and Robert Haines, tackled Duran before he could injure anyone. Found to have a suicide note in his pocket, Duran was sentenced to 40 years in prison.[69]

Day stepped in it when he concocted the magic palmprint a week later.

Wow, you're so desperate you'll even cozy up to Waldo. Whatever happened to your Walt's Fabrication List? Did you use it for toilet paper?

Not nearly as desperate as sending in a partial palmprint on an index card a week later that you "forgot" to mention earlier.

The Walt's Fabrications list is still there.  In fact I referenced it just a little while ago on another thread.

Are you and Rob Caprio twins?   He thinks ( is that the right word?) much like you or vice versa....

Again, no conspirator had ever used a rifle before to kill the President.  So again your point has no validity.  Someone did shoot JFK with a rifle on 11.22. even if that had never been done before.  That in no way precludes Oswald from having done it.  The rest of your post is more nonsense.  Oswald was trained in the Marines to shoot with a rifle.  He was fully capable of making the shots.

He was trained to shoot an M1 at a stationary target 200 yards away, and he was a lousy shot at that according to Nelson Delgado.

reason for the alledged assassin, Oswald to use his own building, the TSBD

1. Oswald was apparently confident that his rifle is untraceable to himself and he can therefore leave it in the building aftter shooting.

2. Oswald has decided that the best spot to shot at the moving JFK limo is from a position high above and behind the limo.

3. Oswald is familiar with all the floors of TSBD, has access to all the floors as part of his routine job, knows the staircase layout, the elevator locations, and most importanly, knows the work habits of the workers and where they likely willl be at lunchour between 12:00-12:30, thus the 6th floor becomes a particulary suitable location.

4. Easier for Oswald to get the rifle into his own building in a package and up to a higher floor he is familar with that he knows he can assemble rifle without likely to be interrupted, such as the 7th floor. And able to do this with least probability of arousing any suspicion of any other persons in the building, while moving up and down staircases.

5. Oswald may have thought he could get out of TSBD without being seen police, but that plan was interruupted by DPD Bakers early entry into TSBD.

6. It is unclear if Oswald had planned a plausible alibi for himself and if that involved being seen in the 2nd floor lunchroom at 12:13  but also attempting to display himself on the 6th floor with a rifle, just 2 minutes later. at 12:15 which would be a ratther risky thing to do, since someone might photograph him in the SW window holding the rifle at the time Arnorld Rowland would have seen him there.

Oswald knew that the 6th floor of the TSBD was abandoned during the lunch hour. President Kennedy's motorcade was due to pass by the TSBD around 12:25 PM. There was a good chance that LHO would be alone there and that no witnesses would see him departing after the shots were fired.

Oswald knew the layout of the building and that his presence anywhere--leading up to the assassination and after--would not be suspicious.

An alternative building to shoot from would be difficult to locate and access would be impossible to secure with certainty.

The only alternative location that was accessible and nearby to Oswald's place of employment was......"the grassy knoll". Then conspiracy theorists would be saying: "No assassin would shoot from a position out in the open where he could easily be seen. The shots had to come from the Book Depository. :D
