How Good Are People at Counting?

Irrelevant, unless you can cite that article stating that Brewer or Burroughs said that the "seat snap or crack" sounded like the hammer or the trigger of a revolver.

You couldn't possibly get more subjective than that.  Some witnesses heard a click or a snap.  Other things were known to have caused clicks or snaps.  Ergo, some witnesses hearing a a click or a snap (regardless of what they thought it sounded like) actually proves nothing.

Riiiiiight.

The click or snap of a revolver sounds the same as a theater seat's "click" or "snap".

LOL

Did anyone report hearing a thump along with a click or snap? You know, the sound that occurs when the seat hits its back.

Cool rebuttal bro.  How do you know what the seats in Texas Theater sounded like when they snapped?  How do you know it wasn't someone in the seats making the noise like Hawkins said?

Are you going with an argument from personal incredulity?

I am not claiming to know any of that.

What I am saying is that you're bat spombleprofglidnoctobuns crazy if you think a movie theater seat sounds like the clicking of a revolver's hammer and/or trigger.

Anything to get a cop-killer off the hook.  Right?

Well, there's a compelling argument.   

You're bat spombleprofglidnoctobuns crazy if you think Oswald killed anybody.  Gee, that makes it so easy...

But anything to convict your chosen culprit.  Right?

You're all over the place.

The point is, when the click or snap was being discussed, you brought up the dumb idea that it could have been a theater seat.

Now THAT is desperate.  If you want to appear desperate, then okay that is your right.  I doubt that anyone agrees with you, though.  I know even the kookiest kooks didn't chime in and have your back on that one.

Anyway, I'm going to eat.  Moving on.

And it could have been.  It could have been a lot of things.  The fact that you find that dumb is meaningless.

Bon apetit.
