Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

[Gerry Down]

And what makes you think I ever needed a bus or a bus stop?

Your comment about knowing people who bought weapons for other people. That's weird stuff. That stuff doesn't go on in normal neighborhoods.

Pray tell, what is a normal neighborhood and who has been talking about neighborhoods in the first place?

This whole thing tells me more about you than it will ever tell you about me.

You clearly have no idea what goes on outside your shielded environment.

I keep bad people out of my environment. Bad people are what drag you down (if you're lucky) and get you in prison (if you're unlucky).

You can post all the gifs you want, it doesn't change the facts.

Sorry to burst your bubble Marty, but the gifs are the facts. Doh!

Oswald filled out a coupon requesting the revolver, so obviously it didn't come from Fort Worth.



The revolver in evidence shares the same serial number of the revolver that was sent to Oswald.

If you say so   

I am sure you can provide the evidence that Oswald actually received the revolver and that he paid the balance due, right?

Oh boy....

Roberts is absolutely certain Oswald was zipping up a jacket as he left. She could not be any clearer. There is no room for doubt. Anyone questioning the certainty of this testimony on this specific aspect, cannot be taking the testimony as a whole seriously.

Now, that's just you deciding what it is.

The fact remains that it's just one person saying the same thing over and over again.

I have listened over and over again to the unintelligible part, maybe someone can help out. I can hear the word "blink" and that's about it. Judging from the phrase "I tried to clear it up", the best sense I can make so far of what Roberts is saying seems to be that it must be after one o'clock because she was trying to fix the TV!

Roberts wanted to watch the 1 PM news. Let me put it to you that she had the television on prior to 1 PM but only had sound and a very blurred picture. I recall her saying that somewhere. Now obviously (IMO) as soon as the news came on she also wanted to see pictures, don't you think? So, that's what she meant by saying "I tried to clear it up". That is my reason for accepting the 1 PM entry time as reasonable.

There is nothing to verify Roberts time assessment so far. At the moment, it appears to me, she is just guessing.

There is also nothing that speaks against her being right when she says 1 PM, so I wonder what motivates you to question her on that and on not on other things.

In stark contrast to her testimony regarding Oswald's zip-up jacket.

Her testimony about the jacket is, just like her 1 PM comment, a single statement, for which there is no corroboration, but in this case there is evidence that speaks against it. It's not conclusive, I'll gladly conceed that, but it is contrary evidence nevertheless.

I'm finding it somewhat difficult to understand why you would so readily dismiss or disbelieve the time estimate of 1 PM, yet go out of your way to question Frazier's testimony about the jacket to such an extent that you contrive a story about Oswald leaving the TSBD wearing a jacket.

The only way for me to perhaps understand it is by looking to the common denominator which seems to be that in both cases Oswald is kept in play as Tippit's killer. Or am I missing something?

"Roberts wanted to watch the 1 PM news."

Where are you getting this information from?

In the video you posted Roberts said she was watching a program called "As The World Turns" which ran from 12:30 to 1:00 PM
She said that after a few minutes into her program a news bulletin came on announcing the shooting. The bulletin was at 12:40 PM.
I assume after the bulletin it returned to the program but Roberts wanted to find out more which, I assume, is when she started trying to find a channel with the news on.
It seems from around 12:41 PM (or after the bulletin ended) Roberts is trying to find a channel with the news about the shooting on.

I sense a disturbance in the force coming from a silly Canadian desperately begging for attention.
