CT's, how did Oswald's rifle end up on the 6th floor?

This is a good thread, lots of intelligent debate and discussion. Can't we all keep it cool...it would be a real shame to have it deleted.

Agreed

I have no idea. It could be either, but is there something that justifies the conclusion that he was just trying to make some money?

Sure it is, but it's nothing more than an assumption that nobody would have printed a pro-LN book by Curry.

Martin, I never stated a conclusion. Nor did I state an "assumption that nobody would have printed a pro-LN book by Curry". Sure, I have an opinion on both, which along with 5p will buy a box of matches, but I've intentionally kept those opinions to myself. Unless asked I very rarely state opinions. Personal opinions are worthless to anyone else. What I tried to do is raise certain points and observations which I believe are relevant. I'm also questioning the reasons for Curry's volte-face. I do think it very relevant that this volte-face coincided with the release of a book. You don't?

So, you don't really know why decided that "they" had enough evidence against Oswald for the Tippit murder?

You can't be Fk'n serious?

They had an eyewitness who saw Oswald kill Tippit.
They had eyewitnesses who saw Oswald at the crime scene.
They had eyewitnesses who saw Oswald with a weapon at the crime scene.
They had eyewitnesses who saw Oswald emptying shells at the crime scene.
They had an eyewitness who saw Oswald acting suspiciously leading up to the theater.
They had the box office girl tell them that Oswald didn't buy a ticket.
They had a Police officer who was struck by Oswald.
They had more Police Officers confirm Oswald resisted being questioned.
They had Oswald's revolver, which Oswald used to try and kill more Police officers.

Fair enough

Context is always relevant

Very relevant? I don't know. What I do wonder about is why somebody involved in the investigation would suddenly change his mind just to sell a book. I just don't see that. Could it be that Curry held his doubts to himself from the beginning and then decided to come forward with them? He wouldn't be the first employee or government official who disagreed with what was going on but did not want to rock the boat…. Could that explain his change of opinion?

Who are "they"?

Who decided to bring charges against Oswald in the Tippit murder?

I answered your original post and now I see you have gone back and changed your original post, pathetic!

Was Curry appointed to his position as police chief? What were his qualifications for the position? A little investigating on Curry is going to be on my list of things to do.
