How Good Are People at Counting?

The problem is that there are really no "independent" witnesses in this case.  Witness memories are highly susceptible to being altered by authority figures, what other witnesses say, or what they see in the media.

This dovetails completely with my argument that the bulk of Tippit witnesses all picking the same man in a line up is highly - let's say - irregular.

There must be something in the water in Oak Cliff that enables all these people to do what - as the video shows - the rest of us can not do.

It's just the usual LN special pleading, Martin.  Eyewitnesses are unreliable, except when they're not.

Because a gorilla walking through a basketball game with intentionally distracted viewers is nothing like a bag on the floor of a crime scene where law enforcement officers are specifically examining the scene for evidence.

Yeah, Law enforcement officers who were focused on locating evidence associated with a rifle crime.

Besides Oswald carrying his rifle to the crime scene in a brown paper bag, is there any other evidence in the history of the world where a brown paper bag was employed to carry a rifle to a murder and then left at the scene?
So overlooking a brown paper bag in a busy warehouse isn't very surprising.

That's totally different, because Joe thinks Oswald tried to shoot a cop in the theater.

The Invisible Gorilla experiment spawned IB science.

Try to pay attention

Not that I know of -- including this one.

LOL.  Nowhere in that video does McDonald even say that Oswald tried to shoot a cop in the theater.
