Lee Oswald The Cop Killer

[Walt Cakebread]

I don't know why it is "unfortunate" for me. Must Mr Mytton be so pompous? According to the recorded document... This Dr Liquori had pronounced Tippit dead at 1:00 which was changed to 1:15 by someone [obviously not happy with the 1:00 time restriction] Making "Oswald The Cop Killer" an impossibility. A retarded person can see that the actual death had to precede the pronouncement by several minutes. So what is "unfortunate" is that John Mytton is too stubborn to accept reality---------> The entire opening post of this thread is based on a fallacious belief.
In case everybody missed it.......

This is curious...."At 3:30 pm Capt Fritz of the Homicide Bureau  advised officers to take the 38 S&W snubnose ( ser # 510210) that was used in the shooting and three live .38 shells and also turned these over to Captain Doughty"

I assume the three live rounds came from the S&W revolver....  Nobody loads just three rounds in a S&W. When the cylinder is swung out there is six empty chambers awaiting six live rounds.....   So where did the three live rounds come from?

Nobody loads just three rounds in a S&W.

Or 4 rounds in a 6 round rifle clip for that matter...

Well any sane and rational shooter would most certainly make damned certain that his weapon was zeroed in and firing accurately, and then he would want at least two full clips of fresh ammo.   No rational sniper would ever embark on a mission with only four rounds. ...Nor would a man who had allegedly just shot a cop, load only three rounds in a six shot revolver..... ( the cops claimed that they found several live cartridges in Lee Oswald's pocket) ....  If true ( which I doubt) then why would there be only three rounds??

Imagine this,  Tippit's killer is cornered by police and attempts to shoot it out with the pollce, but he has only three rounds in his gun....so he yells out..."Hey wait a minute, I've only loaded three bullets in my gun"......

And yet, when one considers a scenario with a lone nut who has limited means, limited time to prepare, and is on the run after two murders in broad daylight with witnesses, it DOES begin to make sense. DANG!

Include there...limited ability...limited quality of these weapons...limited motive to kill anyone...and so on---We see this [lone nut] scene as just a theory using speculation, assumption, and conjecture.

When you look at the case through LN glasses, the “Oswald did it” scenario makes sense by definition, no matter what the details happen to be.

If he left money for Marina, it was because he was planning to kill the president and he would never see her again.

If he hadn’t left money for Marina, it would have been because he was a selfish bastard who was planning to kill the president and didn’t care about anyone but himself.

OK Charlie.... Every assassin in history has had a motive for assassinating a Leader.   If Lee was the assassin as you believe, ...what was his motive?

Define "motive."  Do you mean, for example, some comprehensible reason?  Many assassins are mentally unhinged.  Their motivations are subjective and often don't make sense.  They don't act or think like rational people which is why they are assassins.  Did John Hinckley have a motive to assassinate Reagan or was he just a nut acting out some bizarre fantasy?  Oswald falls in the latter category.   A nut with an image of himself as some type of revolutionary figure.  Thus, the BY pictures and attempt to gain entry to Cuba.  Willing to die to be remembered in the history books.  It doesn't have to make sense because it can't.  It is the act of a mental case.  We don't have to know or agree about his motive, however, to conclude he is the guilty party.  And the reasons don't have to make any sense to a rational person because a rational person wouldn't act as he did.  It's the evidence that informs us of his guilt.
