Pitting might be an example of the effects of corrosion, but Frazier never said he found pitting. In fact, he did say;
Mr. McCLOY - When you examined the rifle the first time, you said that it showed signs of some corrosion and wear?
Mr. FRAZIER - Yes, sir.
Mr. McCLOY - Was it what you would call pitted, were the lands in good shape?
Mr. FRAZIER - No, sir; the lands and the grooves were worn, the corners were worn, and the interior of the surface was roughened from corrosion or wear.
Since Frazier said that he did not find pitting, for a member here to even suggest that the corrossion or wear in the barrel was or could have been pitting is irresponsible.
Nice try, but No.
Zeon Mason said the rifle was rusty.
I then posted that Frazier never said the rifle was rusty, only that it showed the effects of corrosion and wear; huge difference.
Then your dumb ass basically said I was playing word games, which is a.... well.... dumb ass comment on your part. If the rifle barrel was rusty when found, then it would mean that the rifle had not been fired (since firing the rifle would have removed the rust in the barrel). Big difference between rust and corrosion. Like I said, all rust on steel is corrosion but not all corrosion on steel is rust (a point still totally lost on Walt Cakebread's dumb ass).
Then I basically said that the signs of wear and corrosion (like pitting) would not be affected when the rifle fires off a shot. Rust? Yes. Pitting? No.
Then you said "cite please for the first shot not removing the effect of corrosion".
I then responded to that with by saying that pitting inside the barrel would obviously not be removed no matter how many times the rifle had been fired (I mean, how do you remove holes in the metal of the inside of the barrel?).
Then you couldn't resist making another dumb ass comparison to one's claim that the barrel was rusty (which I called an irresponsible comment, which it was) to my stance that small tiny holes on the metal on the inside of the barrel is an example of corrosion that would not be removed when the rifle was fired.
You also had to go and raise the dumb ass meter by posting a portion of Frazier's testimony which you had no idea how to read correctly, as John Mytton pointed out to you.
But, did you admit you were wrong to Mytton? Of course you didn't. You skirted right around it.
It is my humble opinion that no matter how much I think I know about a certain topic, there's always a possibility that somebody else knows more. I would love to discuss all details of this case with a conspiracy advocate who actually has an open mind as that would be beneficial to further my, and perhaps his, knowledge. Unfortunately, you are not that conspiracy advocate.
