"And, of course, a witness did literally see him pull the trigger. It's a slam dunk of guilt."
This is it!
This is the moment six decades of doubt and uncertainty come to an end.
Who was the witness Mr Smith?
Who literally saw Oswald pull the trigger?
I can't wait for this whole issue to be put to bed.
You know the answer. Do you just want to go round and round about it? Markham saw the shooting. To fire a gun, you have to "pull the trigger." In addition, as I pointed out before we go down this rabbit hole, numerous witnesses identified Oswald at the scene at the moment of the shooting with a gun in his hand. No other person with a gun in their hand was seen. On planet Earth, and not down the pedantic contrarian rabbit hole, this can be described as seeing the shooter. Unless you think the shooter was the Invisible Man. Foks in Ford's Theatre heard a gunshot, looked in the direction it came from to see John Wilkes Booth holding a gun at Lincolns' head. What logical inference can be drawn from this situation? Why would anyone take issue with the conclusion that multiple witnesses saw the shooter (i.e. the only person holding a gun at the moment of the shooting)? This is just typical contrarian nonsense to deflect from the evidence. Multiple witnesses place LHO at the scene of the Tippit shooting with a gun in his hand. Oswald was arrested a short distance away, after resisting arrest, with a gun and the same two brands of ammo used in the murder. It's a literal slam dunk of guilt.
