TSBD rifle

[Richard Smith]

That's just it. I don't "spin narratives". I am not a 'conspiracy theorist'. I just pick apart the narratives that were spun by the authorities and the media about there being one guy who supposedly hunkered behind some boxes with this dubious rifle waiting for a presidential parade.
According to her testimony before the Commission... Ruth Paine felt sure that Oswald did not pack a rifle when she dropped him off at bus station to New Orleans. When she went to get Marina from New Orleans she felt sure they did not pack nor unpack [when they got back to Irving] any weapon of any kind.
Desperate to get Mrs Paine to finger Oswald for some kind of rifle play.........So who cares that Oswald went hunting in Russia? Does that prove anything? And if Marina didn't tag along...it was all hearsay anyway. Albert Jenner--- fishing rather than hunting....*"broadens his question"

One test for the validity of a theory is whether it makes any sense.  Leaving a Mauser in the TSBD makes no apparent sense from the perspective of any conspiracy.  There would be no apparent reason for the fantasy conspirators to leave a rifle at the crime scene that could not be associated with Oswald and risk detection.  If they used the Mauser to commit the assassination, then they would have linked Oswald to the Mauser and not bothered with the MC.   Two rifles make no sense.  What does make sense is that someone initially misidentified the MC rifle as a Mauser and others repeated that until the rifle was positively identified.  A simple mistake.

When you say conspiracy theorists, do you mean the people who know for a fact that Oswald didn't do it, or do you mean the people who think Oswald did it. Because to believe Oswald took 3 shots in 8.31 seconds with an "UNUSABLE" rifle (see Warren Commission Hearings, vol 3, pages 405, 443, 449 and 451), then ran 100 feet through obstacles, carefully hid the gun, then ran down 5 flights of stairs (125ft) at top speed, another 15 feet to the 2nd floor break room,and ran into officer Baker without showing any signs of heavy breathing, all in less than 1 minute 30 seconds, and without acquiring even a single spec of gunpowder residue on his cheeks... well that should tell you who the real conspiracy theorists are. Because not only is that fantasy, it's just plain dumb.

Now when you talk about the rifle, which rifle do you mean? The one with altered serial numbers or the one with fabricated serial numbers? Because there are in fact 2 rifles with the same serial number (which alone proves a conspiracy). And the one which was altered was originally C-2763, before someone altered the last digit (3) to reflect a 6.

That's not a theory or an opinion, because unlike the real conspiracy theorists it can be backed up with actual evidence. Notice the fonts aren't even the same.

Now when you ask who could have placed a rifle in the TSBD, there's a few options to choose from.

There's this agent who was photographed exiting the TSBD with a Remington 8 rifle.

Then you have this agent who looked like he was trying to plant the rifle that he tried to hide behind his back when he turned around and noticed the person with a camera standing there.

It could have been agent Hosty or Bookhout. It could have been any one of the crooked lying DPD cops that were there. It could have been planted  before the shooting by any number of people. Even the person who brought the Mauser that officer Craig saw.

Or maybe it was the cop and agent that tried to lie by claiming they found Oswald's wallet at the Tippet murder scene? Or the cop who planted the revolver on Oswald when he arrested him at the theater, and said he identified Oswald by checking his wallet, which was around the same time the other 2 liars claimed they found Oswald's wallet.


Or maybe it was the person who forged this paperwork for the rifle.

Or even whomever planted this pristine bullet at Parkland hospital?

Or how about whomever forged this photo, which I ran through a digital forensic program that can detect even the smallest alterations, and which happened to detect alterations to the head area only?

I mean really, it could have been any number of the lying ass crooked police & fbi agents that were clearly lying and working hard to fabricate and plant evidence. Something that any researcher worth his salt should know. Although I can't imagine why they would need to frame him, seeing how Oswald was guilty, right? Or at least according to the real conspiracy theorists.

But don't mind me and my evidence to back up my claims. Ask the real conspiracy theorists where all their evidence is...evidence that wasn't fabricated fabricated or forged that is.

Real evidence like the Army marksmen who tested the 6th floor rifle and deemed it UNUSABLE. Or the forensic team that conducted the Paraffin tests that Oswald past, proving he hadn't fired any rifles that day, and which the fbi tried to hide for 2 decades. Gee...I can't imagine why they wanted to hide that evidence, can you?

The reason you don't have a theory of your own is because you're neither knowledgeable nor smart enough to form one. As for claiming you're not a CT, well,...that's pure BS! If you believe a "narrative" was "spun by the authorities and the media" then, by definition, you believe in a conspiracy and therefore are a conspiracy theorist. Got it now? See how it works?

Whatever you say...you are a legend in your own mind [and that is no theory]

Where did I mention "Mauser"?

What is a cover-up? It is is utilized when any other alternative is an embarrassment to the powers that be.

The Warren Report was a cover-up...and that is no theory.

Anybody can "form a theory".  Demonstrating that it's actually true is the problem.

Only in Strawman "Smith"-land where it's either "Oswald did it", or a vast conspiracy pre-planned everything that happened.

Where did I mention "Mauser"?

Patrick suggested that Caster's Mauser was planted in the TSBD and when I questioned the logic of that claim you interjected that weapons have been planted at crime scenes.  A nonsensical point since while weapons can be planted to frame someone for a crime there would be absolutely no point in planting a weapon that would not link the suspect to the crime.  But you were clearly referencing the Mauser since that was the only rifle being discussed.  But instead of playing coy are you agreeing that no Mauser was planted, another weapon was planted or what?
