Actually he did act differently that day

1) He 'reached out' to Kennedy while at a distance
2) He got 'up-close & personal' with Tippit

What a guy! 

Try as you OAKers may, you'll never humanize the cold-blooded little cockroach
No sane person gives a rat's arse about Oswald's alleged 'personality' beyond what ultimate effect in had on Kennedy & Tippit

Richard Smith made an absolute statement that Oswald "never had a sense of humor". I asked Mr. Smith how would he know that for a fact since he never met the man. But he refused to answer that question and brought up a completely different topic in order to evade the question.     

Not sure how that makes me "humanizing" Oswald for stating an obvious fact.

What you're doing is silly.

You made an absolute statement about Lee Harvey Oswald regarding his personality but you never met the man to know if he never had a sense of humor as you claimed.

Instead of answering the question regarding the absolute statement you made, you gaslight and bring up a different subject of Trump to avoid answering my question. Really pathetic.

Really pathetic.

That's "Richard Smith" alright. Let's see if the weasel accepts my challenge.... although I'm pretty sure he won't, as it would not only involve disclosing his true identity and expose the lies he's telling, but also cost him a pretty penny.

I seriously doubt that he will accept but you can be sure to get another gaslighting response from him.

Oswald is not a "private" individual."  He is an historical figure who assassinated the President. There have been thousands of books, millions of pages, movies/documentaries and several investigations into him and his background/motivations for assassinating JFK.  Many more books and investigations exist relating to Oswald than even a person like Trump. But Rick's silly point is that it is impossible to reach any conclusion about an individual's private persona unless you know them in person. And you are apparently not bright enough to realize that the point being made is one supportive of the conclusion that Oswald did not write the "Hunter of Fascist" notation on the BY photo.  A point that you agree with.  You are so fixated on playing the contrarian that you are even interjecting your endless nonsense into this discussion.  How about applying this contrarian mantra to some of Stone's long debunked conspiracies theories?

You're wrong. Oswald was a private individual and then became an historical figure later.   

Sorry Richard, my point is not silly. You clearly stated that Oswald "never had a sense of humor in his life". The only way you would know that for a fact is If you knew the man personally, but you never did. In order to evade my question, you bring up Trump for some reason when he was never the subject of this topic.     

I'll ask you again: How would you know if Oswald "never had a sense of humor" unless you knew the man personally? 

That was a silly claim for you to make.

Of course he will show his true colors....

Good one Bill.  Careful or he might challenge you to a debate!   :D :D

Yep.  If he was actually serious about it, wouldn't that be something?

See the comparisons below:







The backyard photos aren’t great quality so one can’t be 100% certain but it doesn’t look identical to the Book Depository rifle in my opinion. You can clearly see the front strap is on the bottom in the BYP, not on the side of the barrel…

I like the way you start off saying the "backyard photos aren’t great quality so one can’t be 100% certain", before then pronouncing you "can clearly see".
Just to clarify - you can't clearly see where the strap is connected to the rifle. The quality of the photo is too poor to discern that. In my view, the way to determine where the strap is connected to the barrel of the rifle is to follow how the strap is hanging from the rifle. Gravity will pull the strap down from the point it is connected to the rifle (IMO).
In the pic below I have highlighted (with a red arrow) where the strap appears to be connected to the rifle.



"As we can clearly see", the strap is connected to the bottom of the barrel of the rifle and not the side. I believe there is a bit of excess strap material that bends off to the right after the connection and it is this you are using for your determination as to where the strap is connected to the rifle.

Yes it would. And the same goes for you.

You would be making a complete fool of yourself with BS like your claim of Callaway putting Tippit in the ambulance before making his radio call.

Too bad you will always find a way to weasel out of a face to face meeting. Your recent videos show that you love to hear yourself talk and your need to be in control of the discussion which is most likely why you want to hide behind a zoom meeting with the possibility of "technical difficulties" whenever something comes up you don't like.
