Then went inside with the curtain rods

[Bill Chapman]

Oswald was shoving it their faces, I heard... saying stuff like 'you figure it out', wasn't he? That could be expected whether he was innocent or not, though.

You don't believe Frazier would want to distance himself from the assassination of the President but would want to be implicated in that crime?  Do tell.

The HSCA tape reveals what one would expect. He did not go to the hospital first. He went home. Likely his sister was at the hospital and he went there to work out what to do given his predicament. Did the cops go to the Randle's looking for him and talk to the mother? We have known for some time his story about the hospital visit was baloney. If his version was correct how did LMR know he was there to tell the cops. There was obvious interaction between the family members prior to his arrest at the hospital. There was interaction between family members and police as well.

Oh, no, no.... Mr "Smith"....  Here's the line that's so utterly ridiculous, that it's real "knee Slapper.....

18 year old, Buell Frazier " should have exercised better awareness based upon Oswald's varying from his normal visit schedule and carrying a long, narrow bag to work ".....   Now THAT'S a real hoot Mr "Smith".

Yes, nothing to see that morning.  Just a guy carrying a three foot long bag shaped like a rifle on the morning that the President was going to drive by his building in an open car.  After making an unusual trip the night before.  Frazier had grounds to be concerned that public opinion might blame him for not being more vigilant with what was going on that morning.  So his story is just a couple of good ole boys driving along in silence barely noticing each other.

THREE Foot??   ..... Frazier said it was abut TWO feet  give or take a couple of inches.
 "Shaped like a rifle"??    Your imagination is running wild Mr "Smith" ....  Neither Frazier nor his sister Linnie Mae, said that the flimsy light weight paper sack was shaped like a rifle. .

You really should stop making this stuff up Mr Smith, It makes you appear to be even more obtuse.

What was the bag shaped like?  Oswald said it contained curtain rods.  What are curtain rods shaped like?  So long and narrow.  Just like a rifle.  Even at over two feet as Frazier estimated it is a very strange looking bag to be carrying.  I'm not saying Frazier should have known that the bag contained a rifle, but he had some grounds to be suspicious.

Monday-morning quarterback syndrome. Easy to say what Buell should have done, after the fact. Coulda, shoulda, woulda.

Oswald lucked out in being around warehouse workers (especially a none-too-bright Buell Frazier and a mental JackD), not people trained to watch for suspicious activities like someone carrying a long narrow package (in a way so as to minimize its profile, IMO) on the day that Kennedy would be driven around, wide-open to all comers... eventually going from sitting duck to dead duck in short order.
