    Your theory is everyone was lying on the day of the murder to frame Oswald for the murder of Tippit, right? Explain why this was necessary (the murder of Tippit, and the framing of Oswald for that murder), I thought the goal was to
    frame him for the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice p207).
    How would the conspiracy know how many witnesses to the shooter they would have before the assassination?
    See my answer to John (Mooney Tunes) Corbett.
    How would they know there wouldn`t be photos or film of the shooter?
    The SS and/or the FBI and the DPD controlled witness evidence immediately after the shooting,
    So a whole bunch of people (how many people would it take to make sure all the film and photos were confiscated?) were told before the assassination that the President was going to be killed
    Technically, this is called Jumping to Concussions.
    You just don`t want to be held accountable for the inferences of your ideas, and what naturally follows from them. You have a large number of people acting in concert, and either they got instruction on what to do before the assassination
    Very few had to know anything *beforehand*. For instance, you can see that Jarman didn't have a clue before 11/23/63. His affidavit puts him out front with Williams, in the time just before and/or during the shooting, and Williams (as even you know)
    was upstairs around 12:30. Jarman was not, as his placement of Williams downstairs & outside clearly shows. It's these fortunate little rips in the fabric of the cover-up that reveal that cover-up.

    I think what Bud was alluding to was all those people who immediately went out and started
    gathering up cameras. Wouldn't they have to know ahead of time to do that?

    As for Jarman. How would your conspirators know neither he, nor anyone else was going to
    take up a position on the 5th floor.

    Well, since Williams was part of the conspiracy... As for Jarman, I take Roy Truly's word that he saw Norman & Jarman leaving Dealey to go with Givens somewhere, perhaps to the crowds on Main (v7p385).

    dcw

    That would have forced Oswald to pick another floor. Like
    maybe the 6th floor. Oh, wait. Maybe that's what happened.

    to frame him for the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice
    p207).
    How would the conspiracy know how many witnesses to the shooter they would have before the assassination?
    See my answer to John (Mooney Tunes) Corbett.
    How would they know there wouldn`t be photos or film of the shooter?
    The SS and/or the FBI and the DPD controlled witness evidence immediately after the shooting,
    So a whole bunch of people (how many people would it take to make sure all the film and photos were confiscated?) were told before the assassination that the President was going to be killed
    Technically, this is called Jumping to Concussions.
    You just don`t want to be held accountable for the inferences of your ideas, and what naturally follows from them. You have a large number of people acting in concert, and either they got instruction on what to do before the assassination
    Very few had to know anything *beforehand*. For instance, you can see that Jarman didn't have a clue before 11/23/63. His affidavit puts him out front with Williams, in the time just before and/or during the shooting, and Williams (as even
    you know) was upstairs around 12:30. Jarman was not, as his placement of Williams downstairs & outside clearly shows. It's these fortunate little rips in the fabric of the cover-up that reveal that cover-up.

    I think what Bud was alluding to was all those people who immediately went out and started
    gathering up cameras. Wouldn't they have to know ahead of time to do that?

    As for Jarman. How would your conspirators know neither he, nor anyone else was going to
    take up a position on the 5th floor.

    Well, since Williams was part of the conspiracy...
    <chuckle>
    Excuse me. Continue...

    ...As for Jarman, I take Roy Truly's word that he saw Norman & Jarman leaving Dealey to go with Givens somewhere, perhaps to the crowds on Main (v7p385).

    Why don't you take the word of Jarman, Norman, and Williams that they were on the fifth floor
    I take Jarman's word in his 11/23/63 affidavit that he was out front for the parade. And Williams had to be up there since he was a co-conspirator. Brennan testified that there was no one in the "Norman" window.
    when the shots were fired, especially since two of them were photographed there?
    Which two? I assume you mean Williams & Norman. Possibly. But Jarman left with Givens circa 12:20.
    You're bonkers, Don.
    Careful. That could be an ad hominem.

    Off on a tangent right away. Focus Don, you said...

    "The SS and/or the FBI and the DPD controlled witness evidence immediately after the shooting"

    Your idea requires that they *do* need instructions right away. What form could those instructions take?
    Let's examine what this moron is saying.

    The cameras should have been taken PRIOR to the motorcade.

    Only a moron would think that is what I was saying.

    Sadly, Chickenshit can't explain what happened,

    Ironic.

    Conspiracy folks always run when their ideas are examined.

    so he relies on
    logical fallacies.

    goal was to frame him for the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With
    Malice p207).
    How would the conspiracy know how many witnesses to the shooter they would have before the assassination?
    See my answer to John (Mooney Tunes) Corbett.
    How would they know there wouldn`t be photos or film of the shooter?
    The SS and/or the FBI and the DPD controlled witness evidence immediately after the shooting,
    So a whole bunch of people (how many people would it take to make sure all the film and photos were confiscated?) were told before the assassination that the President was going to be killed
    Technically, this is called Jumping to Concussions.
    You just don`t want to be held accountable for the inferences of your ideas, and what naturally follows from them. You have a large number of people acting in concert, and either they got instruction on what to do before the
    assassination
    Very few had to know anything *beforehand*. For instance, you can see that Jarman didn't have a clue before 11/23/63. His affidavit puts him out front with Williams, in the time just before and/or during the shooting, and Williams (as
    even you know) was upstairs around 12:30. Jarman was not, as his placement of Williams downstairs & outside clearly shows. It's these fortunate little rips in the fabric of the cover-up that reveal that cover-up.

    I think what Bud was alluding to was all those people who immediately went out and started
    gathering up cameras. Wouldn't they have to know ahead of time to do that?

    As for Jarman. How would your conspirators know neither he, nor anyone else was going to
    take up a position on the 5th floor.

    Well, since Williams was part of the conspiracy...
    <chuckle>
    Excuse me. Continue...

    ...As for Jarman, I take Roy Truly's word that he saw Norman & Jarman leaving Dealey to go with Givens somewhere, perhaps to the crowds on Main (v7p385).

    Why don't you take the word of Jarman, Norman, and Williams that they were on the fifth floor
    I take Jarman's word in his 11/23/63 affidavit that he was out front for the parade. And Williams had to be up there since he was a co-conspirator. Brennan testified that there was no one in the "Norman" window.
    when the shots were fired, especially since two of them were photographed there?
    Which two? I assume you mean Williams & Norman. Possibly. But Jarman left with Givens circa 12:20.
    You're bonkers, Don.
    Careful. That could be an ad hominem.
    It was intended to be ad hominem. Rational discussion went out the window with Don a long
    time ago.
    Well, be on your lookout, Little Buddy. Fucktard Seinzant has a strict debating policy against ad hominems and he's likely to admonish you in the most severe of terms. Brace yourself for the onslaught! That is, unless Fucktard Seinzant is just
    another Nutter Hypocrite, and only admonishes CT's who are spanking him silly as a diversional smokescreen ploy to aid in his running away to go cry in a closet with his favorite dollies.
    Hank speaks for himself. I speak for myself.

    Typical Nutter. But you all speak for the murderers of John Kennedy.

    I'd better re-post this. Don't want it to get lost and make it too hard for the mia Hank to find!

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.

    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so you
    simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    A false tale, as Virginia's affidavit shows.
    You need do more than simply allege this, based on your interpretation of her claims.

    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling police
    that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in With
    Malice.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep doing so.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.

    murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.

    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so you
    simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, > 1:15pm (
    p383). The dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 > E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57).
    Apparently, the Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the
    Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis address.
    That's what these Warren Commission supporters do. They only tell you what they want you to know.
    They NEVER tell you the whole story.
    It's called deception by omission.
    So Willis decides to take one word of context (from a witness he ignores 97% of the information she related) and somehow this reflects poorly on us?
    Sometimes all it takes is a word or a few words--remember "Z", which was based on fact: the phrase "lithe like a tiger" gave it all away.
    I didn`t care about your ideas at all, which is why I didn`t respond to your silly game playing. I objected to Gil`s idea that your silly game playing reflected poorly on us.
    What's silly about showing that Myers omits only the dispatcher's response to the Davis call, which response came about 2 minutes after his response to the Wright call? I guess it's like Kryptonite to both of you superboys....
    You wrote this...
    "She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We
    saw the boy cutting across the street"
    This is silly game playing not worthy of a response.

    dcw
    That one word "street" reinforces Virginia Davis' statement in her original affidavit that she was at the side door on Patton.
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    "Yard", not "street".
    The gunman was then not in the yard,
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    She said Oswald was in the yard.
    but further away, too far for an accurate ID, and nowhere near where the spent shells were supposed to have been found, near the walk & window on the side.
    You are playing silly games, Don.
    I would phrase it as “grasping at straws”.
    And, as noted above, with Bud, it was a very good cover-up, hence the small but significant chinks in its armor.
    No, that’s still the logical fallacy of begging the question with a large dash of circular reasoning. Here
    you simply use the conclusion (it was a very good coverup) to support the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony). Originally, you were using the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony) to support
    your conclusion (there was a coverup).

    Please read up on circular reasoning and try to eliminate it from your arguments.

    Your argument is fallacious.

    (”The idiom 'grasping at straws' is used to mean an attempt to succeed—such as in an argument, debate or attempt at a solution—when nothing you choose is likely to work.”)

    The affidavit was on the afternoon of 11/22/63, within a few hours of Tippit’s murder. Let’s call it three hours later.

    Let's call these three hours one unit of time, thus there are eight such units per day (3 hours x 8 = 24).

    Her testimony was on April 2nd, 1964 - 132 days later. Or more than 1056 such units unitsof time (8 x 132 = 1056).

    Which is more likely to be accurate, her memory from one unit of time later, or her memory from over a thousand units of time later?
    Take your pick--the Virginia Davis of "side door on Patton" (affidavit), or the Virginia Davis of "saw him crossing the STREET" (testimony).
    Those are not the only choices. You are utilizing the logical fallacy of a false dilemma.

    In the affidavit, for example, she said “I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun.” You ignored this.

    In her testimony, she said “Then we heard the second shot and that is when we ran to the front door.”

    So please tell us how you determined which version is correct. You appear to be starting with the idea that a coverup existed, and interpreting all those statements through that coverup lens.
    Don ignored this point.

    Don asserts - without evidence - the Tippit witnesses were all lying in their signed affidavits on the afternoon of the assassination, and then plucks a word or a phrase out of their testimony or affidavit to attempt to turn what they each
    clearly said into something none of them said.

    You tell me how the word "street" got into her testimony. It doesn't fit. Unless she means "crossing Patton", as in her affidavit. What other street would the guy be crossing?
    She also says “yard” in her affidavit and testimony.
    The gunman had to cross her yard before he crossed the street.
    Unfortunately for you and JC, the Davises testified that they couldn't see the guy after he went around the corner of the front yard. So they couldn't have seen him cross ANY street.

    Today November 22, 1963 shortly after 1:00 pm, my sister-in-law, Virginia Davis, and I were lying on the bed with the kids. I heard a shot and jumped up and heard another shot. I put on my shoes and went to the door and I saw this man walking across my
    front yard unloading a gun. A woman was standing across the street screaming that "he shot him, he killed him" and pointed towards a police car. That is the first time I noticed a police car there. I ran back in the house and called the operator and
    reported this to the police. When the police arrived Ishowed [sic] one of them where I saw this man emptying his gun and we found a shell. After the police had left I went back into the yard and Virginia found another shell which I turned over to the
    police. About 8:00 pm the same day, the police came after me and took me downtown to the city hall where I saw this man in a lineup. The #2 man in a 4-man lineup was the same man I saw in my yard, also the one that was unloading the gun.

    AFFIDAVIT IN ANY FACT
    THE STATE OF TEXAS
    COUNTY OF DALLAS
    BEFORE ME, Patsy Collins, a Notary Public in and for said County, State of Texas, on this day personally appeared Mrs. Virginia Davis, w/m/16 [sic], of 400 E. 10th WH-3-8120 who, after being by me duly sworn, on oath deposes and says:

    Today November 22, 1963 about 1:30 pm my sister-in-law and myself were lying down in our apartment. My sister-in-law is Jeanette Davis, we live in the same house in different apartments. We heard a shot and then another shot and ran to the side door at
    Patton Street. I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun. We walked outside and a woman was hollering "he's dead, he's dead, he's shot". This woman told Jeanette to call the Police and she did [sic]. I saw the officer that had
    been shot lying on Tenth street after Jeanette had called the police. Jeanette found a empty shell [sic] that the man had unloaded and gave it to the police. After the Police had left I found a empty shell [sic] in our yard. This is the same shell I gave
    to Detective Dhority [sic]. The man that was unloading the gun was the same man I saw tonight as number 2 man in a line up.

    /s/ Mrs. Virginia Davis
    SUBSCRIBED AND SWORN BEFORE ME THIS 22 DAY OF November A.D. 1963

    You ignored all the above.



    Your theory is everyone was lying on the day of the murder to frame Oswald for the murder of Tippit, right? Explain why this was necessary (the murder of Tippit, and the framing of Oswald for that murder), I thought the goal was to frame him for the
    murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice p207).

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.

    Sorry, no. Your *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to frame Oswald for the murder of of a fellow police officer.
    My *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to gather the evidence that Oswald shot Tippit.

    Note the wording: "I instructed my officers to *prepare a real good case* on the officer's killing" ... Not "I instructed my officers to *frame Oswald* on the officer's killing".

    Your quote doesn't say what you need it to say. You merely take the quote out of context and pretend it does to justify your belief that Oswald was framed. It doesn't say that.

    And as always, you leave unanswered questions in the wake of your interpretation, like
    A. Why would Fritz want to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and let the real cop killer go free?
    B. Why would Fritz think every officer under his command would accede to his wishes (as your interpretation argues) to frame an innocent man and let J.D.Tippit's real killer go free? And do this in the first hours after the murder of Tippit?

    An extraordinary explanation demands extraordinary evidence. Not simply a unique *interpretation* of a clear instruction to build a solid case.

    Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.



    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so you
    simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    A false tale, as Virginia's affidavit shows.
    You need do more than simply allege this, based on your interpretation of her claims.
    You are begging the question and using circular reasoning here once more.
    Don ignored this point.
    A point lost in a thicket of >>>>,,,

    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!


    The discarded shells in evidence match the gun linked to Oswald through paperwork, that was wrested from his hand in the movie theatre after he slugged Officer McDonald.

    Pretty damning evidence.

    If you believe in shells initially handled by civilians, supposedly,
    Yes, civilians reported finding shells in the yard. So?
    Don ignored this point.
    I say "supposedly" because Sgt Hill later said that Benavides didn't handle any shells. And it took some 4 months for Benavides, in his testimony, to say that he did see the perp drop shells and that he did pick them up. Problems on both sides,
    temporally, of his testimony.

    Again, your *interpretation* of this alleged conflict is that Hill (who was supposedly instructed by Fritz to frame Oswald, according to your *interpretation* of Fritz's words above), didn't do that, and helped reveal the frame-up, but only to you. You
    neither quote Hill's words nor provide a link to them. Alleging things is not the same as establishing them. You also appear to suggest, based on nothing whatsoever, that Benavides lied in his testimony.

    Hill's testimony is here: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/hill_gl.htm
    He mentions "Benavides" not at all.

    Even if you provide a legitimate source for Hill's claim, you need to do more: You need to establish that Hill's hearsay assertion is accurate (How would Hill know whether Benavides handled any shells?), and Benavides testimony is false. You are
    currently simply assuming both of these.

    Poe testified that Benavides provided the shells to him (Poe): https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/poe.htm
    == quote ==
    Mr. POE. I talked to a Spanish man, but I don't remember his name. Dominique, I believe.
    Mr. BALL. Domingo Benavides?
    Mr. POE. I believe that is correct; yes, sir.
    Mr. BALL. What did he tell you?
    Mr. POE. He told me, give me the same, or similar description of the man, and told me he was running out across this lawn. He was unloading his pistol as he ran, and he picked the shells up.
    Mr. BALL. Domingo told you who was running across the lawn?
    Mr. POE. A man, white man.
    Mr. BALL. What was he doing?
    Mr. POE. He was unloading his pistol as he run.
    Mr. BALL. And what did he say?
    Mr. POE. He said he picked the two hulls up.
    Mr. BALL. Did he hand you the hulls?
    Mr. POE. Yes, sir.
    == unquote ==

    Benavides testified to it this way: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/benavide.htm
    == quote ==
    Mr. BELIN - Now you saw him throw two shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - You saw where he threw the shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Did you later go back in that area and try and find the shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes. Well, right after that I went back and I knew exactly where they was at, and I went over and picked up one in my hand, not thinking and I dropped it, that maybe they want fingerprints off it, so I took out an empty pack of cigarettes
    I had and picked them up with a little stick and put them in this cigarette package; a chrome looking shell.
    ...
    Mr. BELIN - When you put these two shells that you found in this cigarette package, what did you do with them?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - I gave them to an officer.
    Mr. BELIN - That came out to the scene shortly after?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Do you remember the name of the officer?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - No, sir; I didn't even ask him. I just told him that this was the shells that he had fired, and I handed them to him.

    and falsely witnessed by the Davises.
    Another unproven allegation by you.
    Don ignored this point.
    1) According to the police radio logs, the Davises called the dispatcher about a minute AFTER the first witness called from the scene. (Myers avoided the issue of this delayed response by not including it in his timeline.)

    How quickly might you think someone might think to look up the number of the Dallas Police in their phone book and dial their rotary phone?

    Moreover, this is another unproven allegation by you. You neither cite the police radio logs to establish when the first witness called from the scene, nor establish when the Davis' call was made.

    You really need to step up your game. Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.


    2) Both Davises testified that they first saw the perp when Mrs. Markham started shouting about him. Mrs. M testified that she did not start shouting UNTIL the perp was running down Patton! Again, "falsely witnessed".

    Barbara Davis' affidavit: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/bdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    BD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Ditto with Virginia Davis? https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/vdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    VD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.


    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>

    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!



    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....

    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a
    statement from somewhere else...


    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.

    Again you cite for neither assertion you make, nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.


    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling police
    that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in With
    Malice.

    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove. It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"

    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there was
    therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.



    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep doing so.

    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.




    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE

    There's nothing above that explains this.


    Explain why framing Oswald (or anyone) was necessary to kill Kennedy.
    SEE ABOVE.

    There's nothing above that explains this.

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, > 1:15pm (
    p383). The dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 > E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57).
    Apparently, the Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the
    Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis address.
    That's what these Warren Commission supporters do. They only tell you what they want you to know. They NEVER tell you the whole story.
    It's called deception by omission.
    So Willis decides to take one word of context (from a witness he ignores 97% of the information she related) and somehow this reflects poorly on us?
    Sometimes all it takes is a word or a few words--remember "Z", which was based on fact: the phrase "lithe like a tiger" gave it all away.
    I didn`t care about your ideas at all, which is why I didn`t respond to your silly game playing. I objected to Gil`s idea that your silly game playing reflected poorly on us.
    What's silly about showing that Myers omits only the dispatcher's response to the Davis call, which response came about 2 minutes after his response to the Wright call? I guess it's like Kryptonite to both of you superboys....
    You wrote this...
    "She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We
    saw the boy cutting across the street"
    This is silly game playing not worthy of a response.

    dcw
    That one word "street" reinforces Virginia Davis' statement in her original affidavit that she was at the side door on Patton.
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    "Yard", not "street".
    The gunman was then not in the yard,
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    She said Oswald was in the yard.
    but further away, too far for an accurate ID, and nowhere near where the spent shells were supposed to have been found, near the walk & window on the side.
    You are playing silly games, Don.
    I would phrase it as “grasping at straws”.
    And, as noted above, with Bud, it was a very good cover-up, hence the small but significant chinks in its armor.
    No, that’s still the logical fallacy of begging the question with a large dash of circular reasoning. Here
    you simply use the conclusion (it was a very good coverup) to support the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony). Originally, you were using the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony) to support
    your conclusion (there was a coverup).

    Please read up on circular reasoning and try to eliminate it from your arguments.

    Your argument is fallacious.

    (”The idiom 'grasping at straws' is used to mean an attempt to succeed—such as in an argument, debate or attempt at a solution—when nothing you choose is likely to work.”)

    The affidavit was on the afternoon of 11/22/63, within a few hours of Tippit’s murder. Let’s call it three hours later.

    Let's call these three hours one unit of time, thus there are eight such units per day (3 hours x 8 = 24).

    Her testimony was on April 2nd, 1964 - 132 days later. Or more than 1056 such units unitsof time (8 x 132 = 1056).

    Which is more likely to be accurate, her memory from one unit of time later, or her memory from over a thousand units of time later?
    Take your pick--the Virginia Davis of "side door on Patton" (affidavit), or the Virginia Davis of "saw him crossing the STREET" (testimony).
    Those are not the only choices. You are utilizing the logical fallacy of a false dilemma.

    In the affidavit, for example, she said “I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun.” You ignored this.

    In her testimony, she said “Then we heard the second shot and that is when we ran to the front door.”

    So please tell us how you determined which version is correct. You appear to be starting with the idea that a coverup existed, and interpreting all those statements through that coverup lens.
    Don ignored this point.

    Don asserts - without evidence - the Tippit witnesses were all lying in their signed affidavits on the afternoon of the assassination, and then plucks a word or a phrase out of their testimony or affidavit to attempt to turn what they each
    clearly said into something none of them said.

    You tell me how the word "street" got into her testimony. It doesn't fit. Unless she means "crossing Patton", as in her affidavit. What other street would the guy be crossing?
    She also says “yard” in her affidavit and testimony.
    The gunman had to cross her yard before he crossed the street.
    Unfortunately for you and JC, the Davises testified that they couldn't see the guy after he went around the corner of the front yard. So they couldn't have seen him cross ANY street.

    reported this to the police. When the police arrived Ishowed [sic] one of them where I saw this man emptying his gun and we found a shell. After the police had left I went back into the yard and Virginia found another shell which I turned over to the
    police. About 8:00 pm the same day, the police came after me and took me downtown to the city hall where I saw this man in a lineup. The #2 man in a 4-man lineup was the same man I saw in my yard, also the one that was unloading the gun.

    You ignored all the above.

    And you fail to note that the affidavits contradict each other. Barbara D says that she went to the front door. Virginia D says that she went to the side door. Now of course if you go with Virginia D, she could have seen the man cross Patton--which
    was (see above) the issue here--crossing a street. But I did say "testified"--the two agreed with each other in their testimony, that they went to the *front* door and could not see the guy after he rounded the corner of the house. So I'm not sure what
    exactly you're objecting to. Just quoting something doesn't always clear things up....

    dcw Gotta run. Back later.

    Your theory is everyone was lying on the day of the murder to frame Oswald for the murder of Tippit, right? Explain why this was necessary (the murder of Tippit, and the framing of Oswald for that murder), I thought the goal was to frame him for
    the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice p207).

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.
    Sorry, no. Your *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to frame Oswald for the murder of of a fellow police officer.
    My *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to gather the evidence that Oswald shot Tippit.

    Note the wording: "I instructed my officers to *prepare a real good case* on the officer's killing" ... Not "I instructed my officers to *frame Oswald* on the officer's killing".

    Your quote doesn't say what you need it to say. You merely take the quote out of context and pretend it does to justify your belief that Oswald was framed. It doesn't say that.

    And as always, you leave unanswered questions in the wake of your interpretation, like
    A. Why would Fritz want to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and let the real cop killer go free?
    B. Why would Fritz think every officer under his command would accede to his wishes (as your interpretation argues) to frame an innocent man and let J.D.Tippit's real killer go free? And do this in the first hours after the murder of Tippit?

    An extraordinary explanation demands extraordinary evidence. Not simply a unique *interpretation* of a clear instruction to build a solid case.

    Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.

    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so you
    simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    A false tale, as Virginia's affidavit shows.
    You need do more than simply allege this, based on your interpretation of her claims.
    You are begging the question and using circular reasoning here once more.
    Don ignored this point.
    A point lost in a thicket of >>>>,,,
    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!
    The discarded shells in evidence match the gun linked to Oswald through paperwork, that was wrested from his hand in the movie theatre after he slugged Officer McDonald.

    Pretty damning evidence.

    If you believe in shells initially handled by civilians, supposedly,
    Yes, civilians reported finding shells in the yard. So?
    Don ignored this point.
    I say "supposedly" because Sgt Hill later said that Benavides didn't handle any shells. And it took some 4 months for Benavides, in his testimony, to say that he did see the perp drop shells and that he did pick them up. Problems on both sides,
    temporally, of his testimony.
    Again, your *interpretation* of this alleged conflict is that Hill (who was supposedly instructed by Fritz to frame Oswald, according to your *interpretation* of Fritz's words above), didn't do that, and helped reveal the frame-up, but only to you. You
    neither quote Hill's words nor provide a link to them. Alleging things is not the same as establishing them. You also appear to suggest, based on nothing whatsoever, that Benavides lied in his testimony.

    Hill's testimony is here: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/hill_gl.htm
    He mentions "Benavides" not at all.

    Even if you provide a legitimate source for Hill's claim, you need to do more: You need to establish that Hill's hearsay assertion is accurate (How would Hill know whether Benavides handled any shells?), and Benavides testimony is false. You are
    currently simply assuming both of these.

    Poe testified that Benavides provided the shells to him (Poe): https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/poe.htm

    Mr. POE. I talked to a Spanish man, but I don't remember his name. Dominique, I believe.

    Mr. POE. I believe that is correct; yes, sir.
    Mr. BALL. What did he tell you?
    Mr. POE. He told me, give me the same, or similar description of the man, and told me he was running out across this lawn. He was unloading his pistol as he ran, and he picked the shells up.
    Mr. BALL. Domingo told you who was running across the lawn?
    Mr. POE. A man, white man.
    Mr. BALL. What was he doing?
    Mr. POE. He was unloading his pistol as he run.

    Mr. POE. He said he picked the two hulls up.
    Mr. BALL. Did he hand you the hulls?
    Mr. POE. Yes, sir.

    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Did you later go back in that area and try and find the shells? Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes. Well, right after that I went back and I knew exactly where they was at, and I went over and picked up one in my hand, not thinking and I dropped it, that maybe they want fingerprints off it, so I took out an empty pack of
    cigarettes I had and picked them up with a little stick and put them in this cigarette package; a chrome looking shell.
    ...
    Mr. BELIN - When you put these two shells that you found in this cigarette package, what did you do with them?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - I gave them to an officer.
    Mr. BELIN - That came out to the scene shortly after?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Do you remember the name of the officer?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - No, sir; I didn't even ask him. I just told him that this was the shells that he had fired, and I handed them to him.

    and falsely witnessed by the Davises.
    Another unproven allegation by you.
    Don ignored this point.
    1) According to the police radio logs, the Davises called the dispatcher about a minute AFTER the first witness called from the scene. (Myers avoided the issue of this delayed response by not including it in his timeline.)
    How quickly might you think someone might think to look up the number of the Dallas Police in their phone book and dial their rotary phone?

    Moreover, this is another unproven allegation by you. You neither cite the police radio logs to establish when the first witness called from the scene, nor establish when the Davis' call was made.

    You really need to step up your game. Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.
    2) Both Davises testified that they first saw the perp when Mrs. Markham started shouting about him. Mrs. M testified that she did not start shouting UNTIL the perp was running down Patton! Again, "falsely witnessed".
    Barbara Davis' affidavit: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/bdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    BD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Ditto with Virginia Davis? https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/vdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    VD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.
    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>
    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a
    statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make, nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling police
    that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in With
    Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove. It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"

    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there was
    therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep doing
    so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    Explain why framing Oswald (or anyone) was necessary to kill Kennedy.
    SEE ABOVE.
    There's nothing above that explains this.

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, > 1:15pm (
    p383). The dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 > E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57).
    Apparently, the Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the
    Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis address.
    That's what these Warren Commission supporters do. They only tell you what they want you to know. They NEVER tell you the whole story.
    It's called deception by omission.
    So Willis decides to take one word of context (from a witness he ignores 97% of the information she related) and somehow this reflects poorly on us?
    Sometimes all it takes is a word or a few words--remember "Z", which was based on fact: the phrase "lithe like a tiger" gave it all away.
    I didn`t care about your ideas at all, which is why I didn`t respond to your silly game playing. I objected to Gil`s idea that your silly game playing reflected poorly on us.
    What's silly about showing that Myers omits only the dispatcher's response to the Davis call, which response came about 2 minutes after his response to the Wright call? I guess it's like Kryptonite to both of you superboys....
    You wrote this...
    "She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We
    saw the boy cutting across the street"
    This is silly game playing not worthy of a response.

    dcw
    That one word "street" reinforces Virginia Davis' statement in her original affidavit that she was at the side door on Patton.
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    "Yard", not "street".
    The gunman was then not in the yard,
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    She said Oswald was in the yard.
    but further away, too far for an accurate ID, and nowhere near where the spent shells were supposed to have been found, near the walk & window on the side.
    You are playing silly games, Don.
    I would phrase it as “grasping at straws”.
    And, as noted above, with Bud, it was a very good cover-up, hence the small but significant chinks in its armor.
    No, that’s still the logical fallacy of begging the question with a large dash of circular reasoning. Here
    you simply use the conclusion (it was a very good coverup) to support the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony). Originally, you were using the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony) to support
    your conclusion (there was a coverup).

    Please read up on circular reasoning and try to eliminate it from your arguments.

    Your argument is fallacious.

    (”The idiom 'grasping at straws' is used to mean an attempt to succeed—such as in an argument, debate or attempt at a solution—when nothing you choose is likely to work.”)

    The affidavit was on the afternoon of 11/22/63, within a few hours of Tippit’s murder. Let’s call it three hours later.

    Let's call these three hours one unit of time, thus there are eight such units per day (3 hours x 8 = 24).

    Her testimony was on April 2nd, 1964 - 132 days later. Or more than 1056 such units unitsof time (8 x 132 = 1056).

    Which is more likely to be accurate, her memory from one unit of time later, or her memory from over a thousand units of time later?
    Take your pick--the Virginia Davis of "side door on Patton" (affidavit), or the Virginia Davis of "saw him crossing the STREET" (testimony).
    Those are not the only choices. You are utilizing the logical fallacy of a false dilemma.

    In the affidavit, for example, she said “I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun.” You ignored this.

    In her testimony, she said “Then we heard the second shot and that is when we ran to the front door.”

    So please tell us how you determined which version is correct. You appear to be starting with the idea that a coverup existed, and interpreting all those statements through that coverup lens.
    Don ignored this point.

    Don asserts - without evidence - the Tippit witnesses were all lying in their signed affidavits on the afternoon of the assassination, and then plucks a word or a phrase out of their testimony or affidavit to attempt to turn what they each
    clearly said into something none of them said.

    You tell me how the word "street" got into her testimony. It doesn't fit. Unless she means "crossing Patton", as in her affidavit. What other street would the guy be crossing?
    She also says “yard” in her affidavit and testimony.
    The gunman had to cross her yard before he crossed the street.
    Unfortunately for you and JC, the Davises testified that they couldn't see the guy after he went around the corner of the front yard. So they couldn't have seen him cross ANY street.

    You ignored all the above.

    Your theory is everyone was lying on the day of the murder to frame Oswald for the murder of Tippit, right? Explain why this was necessary (the murder of Tippit, and the framing of Oswald for that murder), I thought the goal was to frame him for
    the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice p207).

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.
    Sorry, no. Your *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to frame Oswald for the murder of of a fellow police officer.

    Actually, it was not so intended. You're jumping to conclusions. As I quoted, he just said "prepare" not, say, "invent".

    My *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to gather the evidence that Oswald shot Tippit.

    Note the wording: "I instructed my officers to *prepare a real good case* on the officer's killing" ... Not "I instructed my officers to *frame Oswald* on the officer's killing".

    Your quote doesn't say what you need it to say. You merely take the quote out of context and pretend it does to justify your belief that Oswald was framed. It doesn't say that.

    And I didn't say or imply that.

    And as always, you leave unanswered questions in the wake of your interpretation, like
    A. Why would Fritz want to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and let the real cop killer go free?
    B. Why would Fritz think every officer under his command would accede to his wishes (as your interpretation argues) to frame an innocent man and let J.D.Tippit's real killer go free? And do this in the first hours after the murder of Tippit?

    An extraordinary explanation demands extraordinary evidence. Not simply a unique *interpretation* of a clear instruction to build a solid case.

    Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.

    All the foregoing by Hank is based on a false, inferred premise.


    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so you
    simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    A false tale, as Virginia's affidavit shows.
    You need do more than simply allege this, based on your interpretation of her claims.
    You are begging the question and using circular reasoning here once more.
    Don ignored this point.
    A point lost in a thicket of >>>>,,,

    Hilarious!
    The discarded shells in evidence match the gun linked to Oswald through paperwork, that was wrested from his hand in the movie theatre after he slugged Officer McDonald.

    Pretty damning evidence.

    If you believe in shells initially handled by civilians, supposedly,
    Yes, civilians reported finding shells in the yard. So?
    Don ignored this point.
    I say "supposedly" because Sgt Hill later said that Benavides didn't handle any shells. And it took some 4 months for Benavides, in his testimony, to say that he did see the perp drop shells and that he did pick them up. Problems on both sides,
    temporally, of his testimony.
    Again, your *interpretation* of this alleged conflict is that Hill (who was supposedly instructed by Fritz to frame Oswald, according to your *interpretation* of Fritz's words above

    You started off on the wrong foot with your assumed "interpretations", then you run the whole race on the wrong foot.

    ), didn't do that, and helped reveal the frame-up, but only to you. You neither quote Hill's words

    "Benavides pointed [the shells] out to us [Hill & Poe], but he didn't handle the shells" (Hill, in a 1986 interview with Dale Myers. With Malice, p259).

    nor provide a link to them. Alleging things is not the same as establishing them. You also appear to suggest, based on nothing whatsoever, that Benavides lied in his testimony.

    Again, jumping to conclusions. "In a 1996 interview, Ted Callaway said that Benavides came to the used car lot the day after the shooting & confided that he hadn't actually seen the gunman.... He told me, he said 'I ain't gonna go down there & tell them
    my story unless they give me something. Callaway claimed that Benavides ended up with a new Pontiac Firebird, half of which was paid for by CBS." (With Malice pp220-221)

    So, did Callaway lie or did Benavides?

    Hill's testimony is here: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/hill_gl.htm
    He mentions "Benavides" not at all.

    Ooh, again a nice quote, but (as you see) irrelevant.

    Even if you provide a legitimate source for Hill's claim, you need to do more: You need to establish that Hill's hearsay assertion is accurate (How would Hill know whether Benavides handled any shells?)

    Hill. in that same interview, said he was there when the shells were picked up.

    , and Benavides testimony is false. You are currently simply assuming both of these.

    Poe testified that Benavides provided the shells to him (Poe): https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/poe.htm

    Mr. BALL. What did he tell you?
    Mr. POE. He told me, give me the same, or similar description of the man, and told me he was running out across this lawn. He was unloading his pistol as he ran, and he picked the shells up.
    Mr. BALL. Domingo told you who was running across the lawn?
    Mr. POE. A man, white man.
    Mr. BALL. What was he doing?
    Mr. POE. He was unloading his pistol as he run.
    Mr. BALL. And what did he say?
    Mr. POE. He said he picked the two hulls up.
    Mr. BALL. Did he hand you the hulls?
    Mr. POE. Yes, sir.
    == unquote ==

    Benavides testified to it this way: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/benavide.htm
    == quote ==
    Mr. BELIN - Now you saw him throw two shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - You saw where he threw the shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Did you later go back in that area and try and find the shells? Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes. Well, right after that I went back and I knew exactly where they was at, and I went over and picked up one in my hand, not thinking and I dropped it, that maybe they want fingerprints off it, so I took out an empty pack of
    cigarettes I had and picked them up with a little stick and put them in this cigarette package; a chrome looking shell.
    ...
    Mr. BELIN - When you put these two shells that you found in this cigarette package, what did you do with them?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - I gave them to an officer.
    Mr. BELIN - That came out to the scene shortly after?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Do you remember the name of the officer?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - No, sir; I didn't even ask him. I just told him that this was the shells that he had fired, and I handed them to him.

    and falsely witnessed by the Davises.
    Another unproven allegation by you.
    Don ignored this point.
    1) According to the police radio logs, the Davises called the dispatcher about a minute AFTER the first witness called from the scene. (Myers avoided the issue of this delayed response by not including it in his timeline.)
    How quickly might you think someone might think to look up the number of the Dallas Police in their phone book and dial their rotary phone?

    Myers' timetable: "Mrs. Mary Wright and Barbara Davis phone police from their homes." (at 1:15:40) WM p383

    Moreover, this is another unproven allegation by you. You neither cite the police radio logs to establish when the first witness called from the scene

    (Of course the first witness to call from the scene was TF Bowley, but from Tippit's radio, not from a residence.)

    , nor establish when the Davis' call was made.

    Mary Wright's address, 501 E. 10th, is broadcast 3 times at 1:19 (CE 1974, pp54-55); the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is cited about 1:21 (CE 1974 p57). You won't find a record of that in Myers....

    You want citations, you get them. But it takes time to find them, so I'll have to break off here...

    dcw









    You really need to step up your game. Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.

    2) Both Davises testified that they first saw the perp when Mrs. Markham started shouting about him. Mrs. M testified that she did not start shouting UNTIL the perp was running down Patton! Again, "falsely witnessed".
    Barbara Davis' affidavit: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/bdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    BD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Ditto with Virginia Davis? https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/vdavis.htm

    VD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.
    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>
    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a
    statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make, nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling police
    that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in With
    Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove. It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"

    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there was
    therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep doing
    so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    Explain why framing Oswald (or anyone) was necessary to kill Kennedy.

    No. The police radio logs indicate that the Davises called the dispatcher 1-2 minutes after the first call from a resident on 10th, which indicates that they saw him a bit later than they testified--running down Patton, not 10th. And Virginia D's

    Yes and yes. Though you're speculating with your "more than happy".

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.
    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>
    And you still don't explain it!
    Why, you seemed to answer your own question. Don't want to get in your way.

    Hilarious!

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation
    No. The police radio logs indicate that the Davises called the dispatcher 1-2 minutes after the first call from a resident on 10th, which indicates that they saw him a bit later than they testified--running down Patton, not 10th. And Virginia D's
    affidavit reinforces this: She says there that she didn't see the gunman until he was on Patton. She seemed uncomfortably aware that their call was a little late for what it was supposed to be--she kept insisting, in her testimony, that they called the
    police even before they saw the man. 7 times or so, until counsel got the right answer.
    , and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make
    Huh? You need to be told that McW recanted? Common knowledge, Hank.
    , nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Again, jumping to concussions. Just shows that lineup IDs can be problematic.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling
    police that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in
    With Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove.
    I proved it to Bud's satisfaction. Talk to him about it.
    It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"


    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there
    was therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep
    doing so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.

    There are two problems arguing with Willis. First you must know what he is talking about. And second, you must know what you are talking about. Otherwise it just won't work.

    And this is difficult for the Nutters because they don't care what Willis is talking about. They are not here to understand what Willis is saying. They just want to say he is wrong. And that's a lot of work for people who routinely shun all burdens.
    Nutters want to just sit back and fire away.

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, 1:15pm (p383). The dispatchers then
    cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57). Apparently, the Davises called a
    little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis
    address.

    The two-minute gap before the mention of the Davis address may suggest a corresponding gap in the time the Davises called. Which further suggests that the Davises did not see all that they said they had seen, in their WC interviews. In those few
    minutes, or less, the killer would have already been going down Patton. In fact, Virginia Davis wrote as much in her original affidavit: "We ran to the side door on Patton St. I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."

    It seems that--unlike her sister-in-law--poor Virginia Davis couldn't be weaned quite quickly enough from what had actually happened. She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into
    even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We saw the boy cutting across the street" (v6p461). A slip, but a devastating one. It means that (a) the two picked up the westward
    progress of the perp too late to have seen him in their front yard palming shells, and (b) they saw the guy as he was crossing Patton, away from them, which means that they did not get a very good look at him.

    Further, the sisters-in-law very closely coordinated their spotting of the "boy" with the concurrent screaming of Mrs. Markham (Virginia: v6p457 / Barbara v3p343). Unfortunately for them, the latter averred that she did not start screaming--
    understandably--until the boy was walking away from her and cutting across Patton (v3p321).

    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    dcw

    Does Myers mention that neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins
    positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore ?

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, 1:15pm (p383). The dispatchers then
    cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57). Apparently, the Davises called a
    little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis
    address.

    The two-minute gap before the mention of the Davis address may suggest a corresponding gap in the time the Davises called. Which further suggests that the Davises did not see all that they said they had seen, in their WC interviews. In those few
    minutes, or less, the killer would have already been going down Patton. In fact, Virginia Davis wrote as much in her original affidavit: "We ran to the side door on Patton St. I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."

    It seems that--unlike her sister-in-law--poor Virginia Davis couldn't be weaned quite quickly enough from what had actually happened. She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into
    even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We saw the boy cutting across the street" (v6p461). A slip, but a devastating one. It means that (a) the two picked up the westward
    progress of the perp too late to have seen him in their front yard palming shells, and (b) they saw the guy as he was crossing Patton, away from them, which means that they did not get a very good look at him.

    Further, the sisters-in-law very closely coordinated their spotting of the "boy" with the concurrent screaming of Mrs. Markham (Virginia: v6p457 / Barbara v3p343). Unfortunately for them, the latter averred that she did not start screaming--
    understandably--until the boy was walking away from her and cutting across Patton (v3p321).

    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    Does Myers mention that neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins
    positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore ?

    You mean Oswald?

    And such a high bar, the jacket needs to be "positively identified". Gil will never say how such a thing is possible, yet he demands it.

    No, he doesn't talk about clothing identification. But it's worse than that. Dale Myers quotes Bill Alexander: "[Mrs. Roberts'] powers of observation were a little weak. If she had told us that she had seen angels come out of the TV set, I wouldn't
    have been surprised" (With Malice p54). Then he quotes reporter Hugh Aynesworth: "She really could not see, I could tell. One time I went to see her and she didn't recognize me, even though I had been there 3 or 4 times before" (p54). Very
    perspicacious of Mr. M. Then jump to page 283: "In the end, two things remain certain. It is apparent from Mrs.. Roberts' testimony that Oswald was wearing a jacket when he left his room on N. Beckley". "Certain"?? As Hank would say, "Hilarious!"
    But of course Warren Report defenders MUST trust Mrs. R since the actual shooter (not Oswald) wore a jacket, and a jacket was found in a nearby parking lot. They MUST take her word for the jacket, even though she had a "reputation for spinning tales" (
    page 54). Nice of Myers to include information which completely undercuts his conclusion!
    A footnote: The first officers to Mrs. Roberts', Senkel and Potts, say nothing in their respective reports (v24 p245, [Senkel]and page 1 of Potts' report) which would suggest that Oswald had even been to the house some 2 hours earlier.

    Well, if Roberts is so blind and stupid and fantastical then Oswald could have come in and got a jacket whatever she may have said. They didn't need to worry about the jacket. It's car 207 that would have sunk them, if there had been a real investigation.

    They need to discredit her for car 207. That's something they can't explain except by discrediting Earlene Roberts.
    They cut their own throats then. Without Roberts, there's no jacket for Oswald, not after the lady on the bus so perfectly ID'd his shirt. For that matter, there's no cabbie adorning Oswald with two coats. We love the bus lady!

    dcw
    Well, if Roberts is so blind and stupid and fantastical then Oswald could have come in and got a jacket whatever she may have said.

    But that would have been speculation. After all, O was wearing both his jackets in the fabled cab ride! If Whaley was right (yes, not bloody likely), then O DROPPED OFF one jacket at Roberts'....


    They didn't need to worry about the jacket. It's car 207 that would have sunk them, if there had been a real investigation.

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, 1:15pm (p383). The
    dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57). Apparently, the
    Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated
    mention of the Davis address.

    The two-minute gap before the mention of the Davis address may suggest a corresponding gap in the time the Davises called. Which further suggests that the Davises did not see all that they said they had seen, in their WC interviews. In
    those few minutes, or less, the killer would have already been going down Patton. In fact, Virginia Davis wrote as much in her original affidavit: "We ran to the side door on Patton St. I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."

    It seems that--unlike her sister-in-law--poor Virginia Davis couldn't be weaned quite quickly enough from what had actually happened. She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her
    affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We saw the boy cutting across the street" (v6p461). A slip, but a devastating one. It means that (a) the two picked up the
    westward progress of the perp too late to have seen him in their front yard palming shells, and (b) they saw the guy as he was crossing Patton, away from them, which means that they did not get a very good look at him.

    Further, the sisters-in-law very closely coordinated their spotting of the "boy" with the concurrent screaming of Mrs. Markham (Virginia: v6p457 / Barbara v3p343). Unfortunately for them, the latter averred that she did not start screaming--
    understandably--until the boy was walking away from her and cutting across Patton (v3p321).

    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    Does Myers mention that neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins
    positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore ?
    No, he doesn't talk about clothing identification. But it's worse than that. Dale Myers quotes Bill Alexander: "[Mrs. Roberts'] powers of observation were a little weak. If she had told us that she had seen angels come out of the TV set, I
    wouldn't have been surprised" (With Malice p54). Then he quotes reporter Hugh Aynesworth: "She really could not see, I could tell. One time I went to see her and she didn't recognize me, even though I had been there 3 or 4 times before" (p54). Very
    perspicacious of Mr. M. Then jump to page 283: "In the end, two things remain certain. It is apparent from Mrs.. Roberts' testimony that Oswald was wearing a jacket when he left his room on N. Beckley". "Certain"?? As Hank would say, "Hilarious!" But of

    Nice of Myers to include information which completely undercuts his conclusion!
    A footnote: The first officers to Mrs. Roberts', Senkel and Potts, say nothing in their respective reports (v24 p245, [Senkel]and page 1 of Potts' report) which would suggest that Oswald had even been to the house some 2 hours earlier.

    Whaley is a clown, recruited from the Air Force Reserve to get Oswald off the bus, or something. Roberts' jacket story hurts THEM more than it helps because she didn't put a jacket on him when he came in, disproving Whalry. Another reason for THEM to
    paint her as blind, stupid and insane.

    Here's where I left off....
    2) Both Davises testified that they first saw the perp when Mrs. Markham started shouting about him. Mrs. M testified that she did not start shouting UNTIL the perp was running down Patton! Again, "falsely witnessed".
    Barbara Davis' affidavit: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/bdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    BD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Ditto with Virginia Davis?
    Yes and yes. Though you're speculating with your "more than happy".
    https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/vdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    VD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.
    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>
    And you still don't explain it!
    Why, you seemed to answer your own question. Don't want to get in your way.

    Hilarious!

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation
    No. The police radio logs indicate that the Davises called the dispatcher 1-2 minutes after the first call from a resident on 10th, which indicates that they saw him a bit later than they testified--running down Patton, not 10th. And Virginia D's
    affidavit reinforces this: She says there that she didn't see the gunman until he was on Patton. She seemed uncomfortably aware that their call was a little late for what it was supposed to be--she kept insisting, in her testimony, that they called the
    police even before they saw the man. 7 times or so, until counsel got the right answer.
    , and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make
    Huh? You need to be told that McW recanted? Common knowledge, Hank.
    , nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Again, jumping to concussions. Just shows that lineup IDs can be problematic.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling
    police that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in
    With Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove.
    I proved it to Bud's satisfaction. Talk to him about it.
    It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"


    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there
    was therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep
    doing so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    It seems that way to you because you misinterpreted my use of the Fritz quote.
    Explain why framing Oswald (or anyone) was necessary to kill Kennedy.
    SEE ABOVE.
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    It seems that way...

    There are two problems arguing with Willis. First you must know what he is talking about. And second, you must know what you are talking about. Otherwise it just won't work.

    I will say in Don's defense, he is tenacious, and is sometimes willing to credit an opponent on a point. (Well at least he did me a few year back.) He ain't perfect, and I certainly don't agree with him, but I can respect him better than a lot of
    person who always throw out an accusation or lodge a disbelief and make no attempt to defend either.

    Virginia Davis said they ran to the front door before Markham started screaming:

    https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/davis_vc.htm
    == quote ==
    Mr. BELIN. How many shots did you hear?
    Mrs. DAVIS. We heard the first one and then we thought maybe someone had a blowout like a tire or something and we didn't get up to see. Then we heard the second shot and that is when we ran to the front door.

    Mr. BELIN. What did you do when you got to the door?
    Mrs. DAVIS. Mrs. Markham was standing at the tree.

    Mr. BELIN. I'm going to call that Virginia Davis Deposition, Exhibit 1. What was Mrs. Markham saying, or did you hear her say anything?
    Mrs. DAVIS. We heard her say "He shot him. He is dead. Call the police."
    Mr. BELIN. Was she saying this in a soft or loud voice?
    Mrs. DAVIS. She was screaming it.
    Mr. BELIN. Did you see anything else as you heard her screaming?
    Mrs. DAVIS. Well, we saw Oswald. We didn't know it was Oswald at the time. We saw that boy cut across the lawn emptying the shells out of the gun.
    == unquote ==

    All this happened within a few a seconds of each other. Some of it was concurrent. She could see Oswald and hear Markham screaming at the same time.



    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    According to you and your unique interpretation of the evidence.

    How many people share your view?

    Why is that significant? The dispatcher already had the wright phone call on record, and her address, right? Doesn’t giving out conflicting information over the radio lead to confusion on the precise location of the shooting on the part of officers on
    the street? Is there evidence in the radio logs of exactly such confusion?



    The two-minute gap before the mention of the Davis address may suggest a corresponding gap in the time the Davises called. Which further suggests that the Davises did not see all that they said they had seen, in their WC interviews.

    Or they witnessed it all, then decided to call the police. What did Wright witness? Fill this in.


    In those few minutes, or less, the killer would have already been going down Patton. In fact, Virginia Davis wrote as much in her original affidavit: "We ran to the side door on Patton St. I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his
    gun."

    So they did see him unloading his revolver and discarding the shells. If the killer used an automatic, wouldn’t the shells be found near the car, where the shots were fired? Instead, they were found in the yard. Right?



    It seems that--unlike her sister-in-law--poor Virginia Davis couldn't be weaned quite quickly enough from what had actually happened. She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into

    You just admitted they ran to the side door at one point and saw him from that door. What’s the issue? Why couldn’t it have been both?


    It means that (a) the two picked up the westward progress of the perp too late to have seen him in their front yard palming shells, and (b) they saw the guy as he was crossing Patton, away from them, which means that they did not get a very good look
    at him.

    Alternately, it means you’re assuming they saw him from one door only, despite their testimony to the contrary.



    Further, the sisters-in-law very closely coordinated their spotting of the "boy" with the concurrent screaming of Mrs. Markham (Virginia: v6p457 / Barbara v3p343). Unfortunately for them, the latter averred that she did not start screaming--
    understandably--until the boy was walking away from her and cutting across Patton (v3p321).

    I figured out how Don is approaching this:
    A. If the witnesses don’t agree on something, there must be a conspiracy.
    B. If the witnesses agree on something, there must be collusion, and hence a coverup.



    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis
    address.
    Why is that significant? The dispatcher already had the wright phone call on record, and her address, right? Doesn’t giving out conflicting information over the radio lead to confusion on the precise location of the shooting on the part of officers
    on the street? Is there evidence in the radio logs of exactly such confusion?

    The two-minute gap before the mention of the Davis address may suggest a corresponding gap in the time the Davises called. Which further suggests that the Davises did not see all that they said they had seen, in their WC interviews.
    Or they witnessed it all, then decided to call the police. What did Wright witness? Fill this in.
    In those few minutes, or less, the killer would have already been going down Patton. In fact, Virginia Davis wrote as much in her original affidavit: "We ran to the side door on Patton St. I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading
    his gun."
    So they did see him unloading his revolver and discarding the shells. If the killer used an automatic, wouldn’t the shells be found near the car, where the shots were fired? Instead, they were found in the yard. Right?

    It seems that--unlike her sister-in-law--poor Virginia Davis couldn't be weaned quite quickly enough from what had actually happened. She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit
    into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We saw the boy cutting across the street" (v6p461). A slip, but a devastating one.
    You just admitted they ran to the side door at one point and saw him from that door. What’s the issue? Why couldn’t it have been both?
    It means that (a) the two picked up the westward progress of the perp too late to have seen him in their front yard palming shells, and (b) they saw the guy as he was crossing Patton, away from them, which means that they did not get a very good look
    at him.
    Alternately, it means you’re assuming they saw him from one door only, despite their testimony to the contrary.

    Further, the sisters-in-law very closely coordinated their spotting of the "boy" with the concurrent screaming of Mrs. Markham (Virginia: v6p457 / Barbara v3p343). Unfortunately for them, the latter averred that she did not start screaming--
    understandably--until the boy was walking away from her and cutting across Patton (v3p321).
    I figured out how Don is approaching this:
    A. If the witnesses don’t agree on something, there must be a conspiracy. B. If the witnesses agree on something, there must be collusion, and hence a coverup.

    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    understand?
    But it's worse than that. Dale Myers quotes Bill Alexander: "[Mrs. Roberts'] powers of observation were a little weak. If she had told us that she had seen angels come out of the TV set, I wouldn't have been surprised" (With Malice p54). Then he
    quotes reporter Hugh Aynesworth: "She really could not see, I could tell. One time I went to see her and she didn't recognize me, even though I had been there 3 or 4 times before" (p54). Very perspicacious of Mr. M. Then jump to page 283: "In the end,
    two things remain certain. It is apparent from Mrs.. Roberts' testimony that Oswald was wearing a jacket when he left his room on N. Beckley". "Certain"?? As Hank would say, "Hilarious!"
    She specifically recalled him zipping up his jacket when he left.
    But of course Warren Report defenders MUST trust Mrs. R since the actual shooter (not Oswald) wore a jacket, and a jacket was found in a nearby parking lot. They MUST take her word for the jacket, even though she had a "reputation for spinning tales"
    (page 54). Nice of Myers to include information which completely undercuts his conclusion!
    A footnote: The first officers to Mrs. Roberts', Senkel and Potts, say nothing in their respective reports (v24 p245, [Senkel]and page 1 of Potts' report) which would suggest that Oswald had even been to the house some 2 hours earlier.

    I'd go along with that, but Oswald's (supposed) presence at Roberts' not long before the two got there would seem to have been worthy of a brief sidebar, in their reports, at least. Okay, it's not quite on par with The World Ended, and they didn't

    Why is that significant? The dispatcher already had the wright phone call on record, and her address, right? Doesn’t giving out conflicting information over the radio lead to confusion on the precise location of the shooting on the part of
    officers on the street? Is there evidence in the radio logs of exactly such confusion?

    The two-minute gap before the mention of the Davis address may suggest a corresponding gap in the time the Davises called. Which further suggests that the Davises did not see all that they said they had seen, in their WC interviews.

    So they did see him unloading his revolver and discarding the shells. If the killer used an automatic, wouldn’t the shells be found near the car, where the shots were fired? Instead, they were found in the yard. Right?

    It seems that--unlike her sister-in-law--poor Virginia Davis couldn't be weaned quite quickly enough from what had actually happened. She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her
    affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We saw the boy cutting across the street" (v6p461). A slip, but a devastating one.
    You just admitted they ran to the side door at one point and saw him from that door. What’s the issue? Why couldn’t it have been both?
    It means that (a) the two picked up the westward progress of the perp too late to have seen him in their front yard palming shells, and (b) they saw the guy as he was crossing Patton, away from them, which means that they did not get a very
    good look at him.
    Alternately, it means you’re assuming they saw him from one door only, despite their testimony to the contrary.

    Further, the sisters-in-law very closely coordinated their spotting of the "boy" with the concurrent screaming of Mrs. Markham (Virginia: v6p457 / Barbara v3p343). Unfortunately for them, the latter averred that she did not start screaming--
    understandably--until the boy was walking away from her and cutting across Patton (v3p321).
    I figured out how Don is approaching this:
    A. If the witnesses don’t agree on something, there must be a conspiracy.
    B. If the witnesses agree on something, there must be collusion, and hence a coverup.

    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    Does Myers mention that neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins
    positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore ?
    No, he doesn't talk about clothing identification.
    Hilarious! What part of Gil saying “… neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore” did you
    not understand?
    But it's worse than that. Dale Myers quotes Bill Alexander: "[Mrs. Roberts'] powers of observation were a little weak. If she had told us that she had seen angels come out of the TV set, I wouldn't have been surprised" (With Malice p54). Then
    he quotes reporter Hugh Aynesworth: "She really could not see, I could tell. One time I went to see her and she didn't recognize me, even though I had been there 3 or 4 times before" (p54). Very perspicacious of Mr. M. Then jump to page 283: "In the end,
    two things remain certain. It is apparent from Mrs.. Roberts' testimony that Oswald was wearing a jacket when he left his room on N. Beckley". "Certain"?? As Hank would say, "Hilarious!"
    She specifically recalled him zipping up his jacket when he left.
    But of course Warren Report defenders MUST trust Mrs. R since the actual shooter (not Oswald) wore a jacket, and a jacket was found in a nearby parking lot. They MUST take her word for the jacket, even though she had a "reputation for spinning
    tales" (page 54). Nice of Myers to include information which completely undercuts his conclusion!
    A footnote: The first officers to Mrs. Roberts', Senkel and Potts, say nothing in their respective reports (v24 p245, [Senkel]and page 1 of Potts' report) which would suggest that Oswald had even been to the house some 2 hours earlier.
    What were Potts and Senkel dispatched to that house to do?

    They were not dispatched to talk to the housekeeper or owners and take statements from them. They just did their job. This is the way all the critics work - including Don - they suggest one thing through innuendo but the evidence suggests something
    else entirely — and they know that.
    In one post Hank criticizes Willis' unique interpretation, and then in the next he says Willis is like "all the critics." This is the way Hank operates. he criticizes you for being unique and then criticizes you for being common, and both comments
    are ad hominems, which he will also criticize you for. Typical Sienzant.
    Let me clear up your confusion.

    Don looks at the evidence with a conclusion in mind, and accepts and discards evidence as desired to reach his desired conclusion. All the critics work this way, and I’ve spent three decades online pointing out where they do it. Above is simply one
    more example. That makes Don the same as all other critics in the way he works.

    Don’s desired conclusion, however, is unique to him (shooting from the fifth floor, anyone?) so he accepts and discards his own unique set of evidence and substitutes his own presumptions and interpretations for what he thinks should have happened
    instead. Again, above is simply one more example. That unique conclusion makes Don unique, as all critics are unique.

    Some critics start out with the presumption that organized crime was responsible, some rich oil barons, some the CIA, some Cuba, some the Mossad, some Russia, etc. Each critic has their own initial presumption, and each bends the evidence in their own
    unique fashion to reachthei4 desired conclusion.

    Glad I could clear that up for you.

    So, where's your citation for that Weisberg allegation?

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, 1:15pm (p383). The
    dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57). Apparently, the
    Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated
    mention of the Davis address.
    Why is that significant? The dispatcher already had the wright phone call on record, and her address, right? Doesn’t giving out conflicting information over the radio lead to confusion on the precise location of the shooting on the part of
    officers on the street? Is there evidence in the radio logs of exactly such confusion?

    The two-minute gap before the mention of the Davis address may suggest a corresponding gap in the time the Davises called. Which further suggests that the Davises did not see all that they said they had seen, in their WC interviews.
    Or they witnessed it all, then decided to call the police. What did Wright witness? Fill this in.
    In those few minutes, or less, the killer would have already been going down Patton. In fact, Virginia Davis wrote as much in her original affidavit: "We ran to the side door on Patton St. I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was

    I'd go along with that, but Oswald's (supposed) presence at Roberts' not long before the two got there would seem to have been worthy of a brief sidebar, in their reports, at least. Okay, it's not quite on par with The World Ended, and they didn't
    mention it, but....

    But what, Don? Your *presumption* is they should have mentioned it. Big whoop. They were dispatched to do a job. They did it.

    No doubt, if they had mentioned it — and this how all critics work — you’d find a reason to discard it.


    This is the way all the critics work - including Don - they suggest one thing through innuendo but the evidence suggests something else entirely — and they know that.
    You like to generalize, I can't help but notice.... (Yes, I know that that too is a generalization)

    Nearly 60 years of experience reading CT BS (_Who Killed Kennedy?_ by Thomas Buchanan was published in 1964, even *before* the WC concluded its investigation), plus being familiar with the HSCA 12 volumes and Commission 26 volumes gives me the experience
    to generalize. Over 30 years arguing online (going back to Prodigy in the early 1990s) also informs my claim.

    I notice you didn’t deny the point, and in fact agree with it somewhat (“I'd go along with that, but…”).

    Didn't bother the dispatcher re Dealey--he gave out several different floors as the source of the shots: the 4th or 5th, the 2nd, and the 2nd window from the end.

    Is there evidence in the radio logs of exactly such confusion?

    Yes, if you SPECULATE that Virginia D was at the side door, and Barbara D was at the front door. The Davises said many things, but not that!

    And if they saw him at the side door, then they saw him dropping shells. Yet it took them hours, they testified, to locate those witnessed shells. And in her testimony, Virginia D recanted on her "side door" in her affidavit.


    Further, the sisters-in-law very closely coordinated their spotting of the "boy" with the concurrent screaming of Mrs. Markham (Virginia: v6p457 / Barbara v3p343). Unfortunately for them, the latter averred that she did not start screaming--
    understandably--until the boy was walking away from her and cutting across Patton (v3p321).
    I figured out how Don is approaching this:
    A. If the witnesses don’t agree on something, there must be a conspiracy. B. If the witnesses agree on something, there must be collusion, and hence a coverup.

    God, how you love to generalize!


    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    Does Myers mention that neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins
    positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore ?
    No, he doesn't talk about clothing identification.
    Hilarious! What part of Gil saying “… neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore” did you not
    understand?

    Hilarious! He asked if Myers mentioned a piece of clothing. I replied that he didn't mention clothing ID. Please return to Earth, Hank! We miss you...

    But it's worse than that. Dale Myers quotes Bill Alexander: "[Mrs. Roberts'] powers of observation were a little weak. If she had told us that she had seen angels come out of the TV set, I wouldn't have been surprised" (With Malice p54). Then he
    quotes reporter Hugh Aynesworth: "She really could not see, I could tell. One time I went to see her and she didn't recognize me, even though I had been there 3 or 4 times before" (p54). Very perspicacious of Mr. M. Then jump to page 283: "In the end,
    two things remain certain. It is apparent from Mrs.. Roberts' testimony that Oswald was wearing a jacket when he left his room on N. Beckley". "Certain"?? As Hank would say, "Hilarious!"
    She specifically recalled him zipping up his jacket when he left.

    Hilarious! The woman couldn't see says she saw something "specifically". Please read instructions carefully. Failure to do so may result in death or derangement. Didn't you see that on the package? If you don't really have a response to what I write,
    you can just not respond. Ever think of that?

    But of course Warren Report defenders MUST trust Mrs. R since the actual shooter (not Oswald) wore a jacket, and a jacket was found in a nearby parking lot. They MUST take her word for the jacket, even though she had a "reputation for spinning tales"
    (page 54). Nice of Myers to include information which completely undercuts his conclusion!
    A footnote: The first officers to Mrs. Roberts', Senkel and Potts, say nothing in their respective reports (v24 p245, [Senkel]and page 1 of Potts' report) which would suggest that Oswald had even been to the house some 2 hours earlier.
    What were Potts and Senkel dispatched to that house to do?

    You answered this elsewhere, and I responded elsewhere.

    Mr. BELIN. I'm going to call that Virginia Davis Deposition, Exhibit 1. What was Mrs. Markham saying, or did you hear her say anything?
    Mrs. DAVIS. We heard her say "He shot him. He is dead. Call the police."
    Mr. BELIN. Was she saying this in a soft or loud voice?
    Mrs. DAVIS. She was screaming it.
    Mr. BELIN. Did you see anything else as you heard her screaming?
    Mrs. DAVIS. Well, we saw Oswald. We didn't know it was Oswald at the time. We saw that boy cut across the lawn emptying the shells out of the gun.

    All this happened within a few a seconds of each other. Some of it was concurrent. She could see Oswald and hear Markham screaming at the same time.

    They were dispatched to search the room. They waited for the search warrant and then took various items into evidence.

    Potts: https://www.history-matters.com/archive/jfk/wc/wcvols/wh21/html/WH_Vol21_0083a.htm

    They were not dispatched to talk to the housekeeper or owners and take statements from them. They just did their job. This is the way all the critics work - including Don - they suggest one thing through innuendo but the evidence suggests something
    else entirely — and they know that.
    "The television... flashed
    Oswald’s picture on there and one of the women, either Mrs. Roberts or Mrs.
    Johnson said, “That’s the man that lives here. That’s Mr. Lee-O. H. Lee.” She
    said, “His room is right here right off of the living room.”

    The cops are just doing their job. OK. But when Mrs. Roberts & the cops saw Oswald's picture on TV it didn't seem to remind her that she had just seen him. The above is from Potts' WC testimony. Testimony. If Mrs R had said anything about Oswald's
    having just been to her house, Potts would have said so there. It's not a report. Before the Commission, he's allowed to stray outside the parameters of the report, isn't he? Isn't that what the testimony was for--amplifying what had been in the reports?
    Apparently, there was nothing to amplify. Mrs. R, then, had not just seen O at her house. Conclusion: Oswald did not go to the boarding house circa 1pm. The whole jacket story is based on the lie of an (as even Dale Myers admits) inveterate liar. And she
    came up with this lie somewhat later.

    (Now Sienzant and SkyThrone are going to gang up on me! An odd couple.)

    dcw

    I don't "gang up" with Hank. Earlene Roberts saw car 207 outside, Jerry Hill's car for the day, honking the horn for Oswald. That's all I need to say, and Hank will never agree with that.

    In those few minutes, or less, the killer would have already been going down Patton. In fact, Virginia Davis wrote as much in her original affidavit: "We ran to the side door on Patton St. I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading
    his gun."
    So they did see him unloading his revolver and discarding the shells. If the killer used an automatic, wouldn’t the shells be found near the car, where the shots were fired? Instead, they were found in the yard. Right?

    It seems that--unlike her sister-in-law--poor Virginia Davis couldn't be weaned quite quickly enough from what had actually happened. She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit
    into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"We saw the boy cutting across the street" (v6p461). A slip, but a devastating one.
    You just admitted they ran to the side door at one point and saw him from that door. What’s the issue? Why couldn’t it have been both?
    It means that (a) the two picked up the westward progress of the perp too late to have seen him in their front yard palming shells, and (b) they saw the guy as he was crossing Patton, away from them, which means that they did not get a very good
    look at him.
    Alternately, it means you’re assuming they saw him from one door only, despite their testimony to the contrary.

    Further, the sisters-in-law very closely coordinated their spotting of the "boy" with the concurrent screaming of Mrs. Markham (Virginia: v6p457 / Barbara v3p343). Unfortunately for them, the latter averred that she did not start screaming--
    understandably--until the boy was walking away from her and cutting across Patton (v3p321).
    I figured out how Don is approaching this:
    A. If the witnesses don’t agree on something, there must be a conspiracy.
    B. If the witnesses agree on something, there must be collusion, and hence a coverup.

    All the above signs: the belated phone call, Virginia Davis's "street" slip, and Mrs. Markham's belated screaming: point to a retrospectively diminished role for the Davises in the Oak Cliff story.

    Does Myers mention that neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins
    positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore ?
    No, he doesn't talk about clothing identification.
    Hilarious! What part of Gil saying “… neither of the Davises, nor Mrs. Markham, nor Ted Callaway, nor Benavides, nor Scoggins positively identified CE 162, the "tannish gray" jacket in evidence as the jacket the Tippit killer wore” did you not
    understand?
    But it's worse than that. Dale Myers quotes Bill Alexander: "[Mrs. Roberts'] powers of observation were a little weak. If she had told us that she had seen angels come out of the TV set, I wouldn't have been surprised" (With Malice p54). Then he
    quotes reporter Hugh Aynesworth: "She really could not see, I could tell. One time I went to see her and she didn't recognize me, even though I had been there 3 or 4 times before" (p54). Very perspicacious of Mr. M. Then jump to page 283: "In the end,
    two things remain certain. It is apparent from Mrs.. Roberts' testimony that Oswald was wearing a jacket when he left his room on N. Beckley". "Certain"?? As Hank would say, "Hilarious!"
    She specifically recalled him zipping up his jacket when he left.
    But of course Warren Report defenders MUST trust Mrs. R since the actual shooter (not Oswald) wore a jacket, and a jacket was found in a nearby parking lot. They MUST take her word for the jacket, even though she had a "reputation for spinning
    tales" (page 54). Nice of Myers to include information which completely undercuts his conclusion!
    A footnote: The first officers to Mrs. Roberts', Senkel and Potts, say nothing in their respective reports (v24 p245, [Senkel]and page 1 of Potts' report) which would suggest that Oswald had even been to the house some 2 hours earlier.

    else entirely — and they know that.

    "The television... flashed
    Oswald’s picture on there and one of the women, either Mrs. Roberts or Mrs. Johnson said, “That’s the man that lives here. That’s Mr. Lee-O. H. Lee.” She
    said, “His room is right here right off of the living room.”

    The cops are just doing their job. OK. But when Mrs. Roberts & the cops saw Oswald's picture on TV it didn't seem to remind her that she had just seen him. The above is from Potts' WC testimony. Testimony. If Mrs R had said anything about Oswald's
    having just been to her house, Potts would have said so there. It's not a report. Before the Commission, he's allowed to stray outside the parameters of the report, isn't he? Isn't that what the testimony was for--amplifying what had been in the
    reports? Apparently, there was nothing to amplify. Mrs. R, then, had not just seen O at her house. Conclusion: Oswald did not go to the boarding house circa 1pm. The whole jacket story is based on the lie of an (as even Dale Myers admits) inveterate
    liar. And she came up with this lie somewhat later.

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, 1:15pm (p383). The
    dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57). Apparently, the
    Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated
    mention of the Davis address.
    Why is that significant? The dispatcher already had the wright phone call on record, and her address, right? Doesn’t giving out conflicting information over the radio lead to confusion on the precise location of the shooting on the part of
    officers on the street? Is there evidence in the radio logs of exactly such confusion?

    hours earlier. And she doesn't think to mention it? A killer in her house. Clearly you are not familiar with human nature. She would have been at least mildly spooked. As Myers notes, she was given to making up stories, and here she has the story of

    Without that "stopover", there's no jacket, not if you believe Mrs. Bledsoe.

    Why would I post "evidence" re a stop he didn't make? Or do you actually believe Reynolds' revised version of his story, where he sees O heading towards the parking lot? Earlier, he had been telling cops he saw him headed into an old house.

    and then Brewer’s shoe store before sneaking into the theatre, and explain why he would sneak into the theatre instead of paying.

    Indeed. Why would he sneak in? Didn't he have a little change on him? The bus driver didn't take all his cash, I assume. Why would he do something pointless like that on the off-chance that he could get caught?

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, > 1:
    15pm (p383). The dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 > E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57).
    Apparently, the Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the
    Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis address.
    That's what these Warren Commission supporters do.
    They only tell you what they want you to know. They NEVER tell you the whole story.
    It's called deception by omission.
    So Willis decides to take one word of context (from a witness he ignores 97% of the information she related) and somehow this reflects poorly on us?
    Sometimes all it takes is a word or a few words--remember "Z", which was based on fact: the phrase "lithe like a tiger" gave it all away.
    I didn`t care about your ideas at all, which is why I didn`t respond to your silly game playing. I objected to Gil`s idea that your silly game playing reflected poorly on us.
    What's silly about showing that Myers omits only the dispatcher's response to the Davis call, which response came about 2 minutes after his response to the Wright call? I guess it's like Kryptonite to both of you superboys....
    You wrote this...
    "She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"
    We saw the boy cutting across the street"
    This is silly game playing not worthy of a response.

    dcw
    That one word "street" reinforces Virginia Davis' statement in her original affidavit that she was at the side door on Patton.
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    "Yard", not "street".
    The gunman was then not in the yard,
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    She said Oswald was in the yard.
    but further away, too far for an accurate ID, and nowhere near where the spent shells were supposed to have been found, near the walk & window on the side.
    You are playing silly games, Don.
    I would phrase it as “grasping at straws”.
    And, as noted above, with Bud, it was a very good cover-up, hence the small but significant chinks in its armor.
    No, that’s still the logical fallacy of begging the question with a large dash of circular reasoning. Here
    you simply use the conclusion (it was a very good coverup) to support the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony). Originally, you were using the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony) to support
    your conclusion (there was a coverup).

    Please read up on circular reasoning and try to eliminate it from your arguments.

    Your argument is fallacious.

    (”The idiom 'grasping at straws' is used to mean an attempt to succeed—such as in an argument, debate or attempt at a solution—when nothing you choose is likely to work.”)

    The affidavit was on the afternoon of 11/22/63, within a few hours of Tippit’s murder. Let’s call it three hours later.

    Let's call these three hours one unit of time, thus there are eight such units per day (3 hours x 8 = 24).

    Her testimony was on April 2nd, 1964 - 132 days later. Or more than 1056 such units unitsof time (8 x 132 = 1056).

    Which is more likely to be accurate, her memory from one unit of time later, or her memory from over a thousand units of time later?
    Take your pick--the Virginia Davis of "side door on Patton" (affidavit), or the Virginia Davis of "saw him crossing the STREET" (testimony).
    Those are not the only choices. You are utilizing the logical fallacy of a false dilemma.

    In the affidavit, for example, she said “I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun.” You ignored this.

    In her testimony, she said “Then we heard the second shot and that is when we ran to the front door.”

    So please tell us how you determined which version is correct. You appear to be starting with the idea that a coverup existed, and interpreting all those statements through that coverup lens.
    Don ignored this point.

    Don asserts - without evidence - the Tippit witnesses were all lying in their signed affidavits on the afternoon of the assassination, and then plucks a word or a phrase out of their testimony or affidavit to attempt to turn what they each
    clearly said into something none of them said.

    You tell me how the word "street" got into her testimony. It doesn't fit. Unless she means "crossing Patton", as in her affidavit. What other street would the guy be crossing?
    She also says “yard” in her affidavit and testimony.
    The gunman had to cross her yard before he crossed the street.
    Unfortunately for you and JC, the Davises testified that they couldn't see the guy after he went around the corner of the front yard. So they couldn't have seen him cross ANY street.

    You ignored all the above.

    Your theory is everyone was lying on the day of the murder to frame Oswald for the murder of Tippit, right? Explain why this was necessary (the murder of Tippit, and the framing of Oswald for that murder), I thought the goal was to frame him for
    the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice p207).

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.
    Sorry, no. Your *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to frame Oswald for the murder of of a fellow police officer.
    Actually, it was not so intended. You're jumping to conclusions. As I quoted, he just said "prepare" not, say, "invent".
    My *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to gather the evidence that Oswald shot Tippit.

    Note the wording: "I instructed my officers to *prepare a real good case* on the officer's killing" ... Not "I instructed my officers to *frame Oswald* on the officer's killing".

    Your quote doesn't say what you need it to say. You merely take the quote out of context and pretend it does to justify your belief that Oswald was framed. It doesn't say that.
    And I didn't say or imply that.
    And as always, you leave unanswered questions in the wake of your interpretation, like
    A. Why would Fritz want to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and let the real cop killer go free?
    B. Why would Fritz think every officer under his command would accede to his wishes (as your interpretation argues) to frame an innocent man and let J.D.Tippit's real killer go free? And do this in the first hours after the murder of Tippit?

    An extraordinary explanation demands extraordinary evidence. Not simply a unique *interpretation* of a clear instruction to build a solid case.

    Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.
    All the foregoing by Hank is based on a false, inferred premise.

    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so you
    simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    A false tale, as Virginia's affidavit shows.
    You need do more than simply allege this, based on your interpretation of her claims.
    You are begging the question and using circular reasoning here once more.
    Don ignored this point.
    A point lost in a thicket of >>>>,,,
    And you still don't explain it!
    I'll leave it to you to sort out the >>>>s...

    Hilarious!
    The discarded shells in evidence match the gun linked to Oswald through paperwork, that was wrested from his hand in the movie theatre after he slugged Officer McDonald.

    Pretty damning evidence.

    If you believe in shells initially handled by civilians, supposedly,
    Yes, civilians reported finding shells in the yard. So?
    Don ignored this point.
    I say "supposedly" because Sgt Hill later said that Benavides didn't handle any shells. And it took some 4 months for Benavides, in his testimony, to say that he did see the perp drop shells and that he did pick them up. Problems on both sides,
    temporally, of his testimony.
    Again, your *interpretation* of this alleged conflict is that Hill (who was supposedly instructed by Fritz to frame Oswald, according to your *interpretation* of Fritz's words above
    You started off on the wrong foot with your assumed "interpretations", then you run the whole race on the wrong foot.
    ), didn't do that, and helped reveal the frame-up, but only to you. You neither quote Hill's words
    "Benavides pointed [the shells] out to us [Hill & Poe], but he didn't handle the shells" (Hill, in a 1986 interview with Dale Myers. With Malice, p259).
    nor provide a link to them. Alleging things is not the same as establishing them. You also appear to suggest, based on nothing whatsoever, that Benavides lied in his testimony.
    Again, jumping to conclusions. "In a 1996 interview, Ted Callaway said that Benavides came to the used car lot the day after the shooting & confided that he hadn't actually seen the gunman.... He told me, he said 'I ain't gonna go down there & tell
    them my story unless they give me something. Callaway claimed that Benavides ended up with a new Pontiac Firebird, half of which was paid for by CBS." (With Malice pp220-221)

    So, did Callaway lie or did Benavides?
    Hill's testimony is here: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/hill_gl.htm
    He mentions "Benavides" not at all.
    Ooh, again a nice quote, but (as you see) irrelevant.

    Even if you provide a legitimate source for Hill's claim, you need to do more: You need to establish that Hill's hearsay assertion is accurate (How would Hill know whether Benavides handled any shells?)
    Hill. in that same interview, said he was there when the shells were picked up.
    , and Benavides testimony is false. You are currently simply assuming both of these.

    Poe testified that Benavides provided the shells to him (Poe): https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/poe.htm
    == quote ==
    Mr. POE. I talked to a Spanish man, but I don't remember his name. Dominique, I believe.

    Mr. POE. I believe that is correct; yes, sir.
    Mr. BALL. What did he tell you?
    Mr. POE. He told me, give me the same, or similar description of the man, and told me he was running out across this lawn. He was unloading his pistol as he ran, and he picked the shells up.
    Mr. BALL. Domingo told you who was running across the lawn?
    Mr. POE. A man, white man.
    Mr. BALL. What was he doing?
    Mr. POE. He was unloading his pistol as he run.
    Mr. BALL. And what did he say?
    Mr. POE. He said he picked the two hulls up.
    Mr. BALL. Did he hand you the hulls?
    Mr. POE. Yes, sir.

    Benavides testified to it this way: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/benavide.htm

    Mr. BELIN - Now you saw him throw two shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - You saw where he threw the shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Did you later go back in that area and try and find the shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes. Well, right after that I went back and I knew exactly where they was at, and I went over and picked up one in my hand, not thinking and I dropped it, that maybe they want fingerprints off it, so I took out an empty pack of
    cigarettes I had and picked them up with a little stick and put them in this cigarette package; a chrome looking shell.
    ...
    Mr. BELIN - When you put these two shells that you found in this cigarette package, what did you do with them?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - I gave them to an officer.
    Mr. BELIN - That came out to the scene shortly after?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Do you remember the name of the officer?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - No, sir; I didn't even ask him. I just told him that this was the shells that he had fired, and I handed them to him.

    and falsely witnessed by the Davises.
    Another unproven allegation by you.
    Don ignored this point.
    1) According to the police radio logs, the Davises called the dispatcher about a minute AFTER the first witness called from the scene. (Myers avoided the issue of this delayed response by not including it in his timeline.)
    How quickly might you think someone might think to look up the number of the Dallas Police in their phone book and dial their rotary phone?
    Myers' timetable: "Mrs. Mary Wright and Barbara Davis phone police from their homes." (at 1:15:40) WM p383
    Moreover, this is another unproven allegation by you. You neither cite the police radio logs to establish when the first witness called from the scene
    (Of course the first witness to call from the scene was TF Bowley, but from Tippit's radio, not from a residence.)
    , nor establish when the Davis' call was made.
    Mary Wright's address, 501 E. 10th, is broadcast 3 times at 1:19 (CE 1974, pp54-55); the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is cited about 1:21 (CE 1974 p57). You won't find a record of that in Myers....

    You want citations, you get them. But it takes time to find them, so I'll have to break off here...

    dcw

    You really need to step up your game. Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.

    2) Both Davises testified that they first saw the perp when Mrs. Markham started shouting about him. Mrs. M testified that she did not start shouting UNTIL the perp was running down Patton! Again, "falsely witnessed".
    Barbara Davis' affidavit: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/bdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    BD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Ditto with Virginia Davis? https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/vdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    VD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.
    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>
    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a
    statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make, nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling
    police that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in
    With Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove. It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"

    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there
    was therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep doing
    so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE
    There's nothing above that explains this.

    Here's where I left off....
    2) Both Davises testified that they first saw the perp when Mrs. Markham started shouting about him. Mrs. M testified that she did not start shouting UNTIL the perp was running down Patton! Again, "falsely witnessed".
    Barbara Davis' affidavit: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/bdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    BD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Ditto with Virginia Davis?
    Yes and yes. Though you're speculating with your "more than happy".
    https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/vdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    VD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.
    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>
    And you still don't explain it!
    Why, you seemed to answer your own question. Don't want to get in your way.

    Hilarious!

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation
    No. The police radio logs indicate that the Davises called the dispatcher 1-2 minutes after the first call from a resident on 10th, which indicates that they saw him a bit later than they testified--running down Patton, not 10th. And Virginia D's
    affidavit reinforces this: She says there that she didn't see the gunman until he was on Patton. She seemed uncomfortably aware that their call was a little late for what it was supposed to be--she kept insisting, in her testimony, that they called the
    police even before they saw the man. 7 times or so, until counsel got the right answer.
    , and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make
    Huh? You need to be told that McW recanted? Common knowledge, Hank.
    , nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Again, jumping to concussions. Just shows that lineup IDs can be problematic.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling
    police that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in
    With Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove.
    I proved it to Bud's satisfaction. Talk to him about it.
    It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"


    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there
    was therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep doing
    so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    It seems that way to you because you misinterpreted my use of the Fritz quote.
    Explain why framing Oswald (or anyone) was necessary to kill Kennedy.
    SEE ABOVE.
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    It seems that way...

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, > 1:
    15pm (p383). The dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 > E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57).
    Apparently, the Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the
    Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis address.
    That's what these Warren Commission supporters do.
    They only tell you what they want you to know. They NEVER tell you the whole story.
    It's called deception by omission.
    So Willis decides to take one word of context (from a witness he ignores 97% of the information she related) and somehow this reflects poorly on us?
    Sometimes all it takes is a word or a few words--remember "Z", which was based on fact: the phrase "lithe like a tiger" gave it all away.
    I didn`t care about your ideas at all, which is why I didn`t respond to your silly game playing. I objected to Gil`s idea that your silly game playing reflected poorly on us.
    What's silly about showing that Myers omits only the dispatcher's response to the Davis call, which response came about 2 minutes after his response to the Wright call? I guess it's like Kryptonite to both of you superboys....
    You wrote this...
    "She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"
    We saw the boy cutting across the street"
    This is silly game playing not worthy of a response.

    dcw
    That one word "street" reinforces Virginia Davis' statement in her original affidavit that she was at the side door on Patton.
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    "Yard", not "street".
    The gunman was then not in the yard,
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    She said Oswald was in the yard.
    but further away, too far for an accurate ID, and nowhere near where the spent shells were supposed to have been found, near the walk & window on the side.
    You are playing silly games, Don.
    I would phrase it as “grasping at straws”.
    And, as noted above, with Bud, it was a very good cover-up, hence the small but significant chinks in its armor.
    No, that’s still the logical fallacy of begging the question with a large dash of circular reasoning. Here
    you simply use the conclusion (it was a very good coverup) to support the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony). Originally, you were using the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony) to
    support your conclusion (there was a coverup).

    Please read up on circular reasoning and try to eliminate it from your arguments.

    Your argument is fallacious.

    (”The idiom 'grasping at straws' is used to mean an attempt to succeed—such as in an argument, debate or attempt at a solution—when nothing you choose is likely to work.”)

    The affidavit was on the afternoon of 11/22/63, within a few hours of Tippit’s murder. Let’s call it three hours later.

    Let's call these three hours one unit of time, thus there are eight such units per day (3 hours x 8 = 24).

    Her testimony was on April 2nd, 1964 - 132 days later. Or more than 1056 such units unitsof time (8 x 132 = 1056).

    Which is more likely to be accurate, her memory from one unit of time later, or her memory from over a thousand units of time later?
    Take your pick--the Virginia Davis of "side door on Patton" (affidavit), or the Virginia Davis of "saw him crossing the STREET" (testimony).
    Those are not the only choices. You are utilizing the logical fallacy of a false dilemma.

    In the affidavit, for example, she said “I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun.” You ignored this.

    In her testimony, she said “Then we heard the second shot and that is when we ran to the front door.”

    So please tell us how you determined which version is correct. You appear to be starting with the idea that a coverup existed, and interpreting all those statements through that coverup lens.
    Don ignored this point.

    Don asserts - without evidence - the Tippit witnesses were all lying in their signed affidavits on the afternoon of the assassination, and then plucks a word or a phrase out of their testimony or affidavit to attempt to turn what they
    each clearly said into something none of them said.

    You tell me how the word "street" got into her testimony. It doesn't fit. Unless she means "crossing Patton", as in her affidavit. What other street would the guy be crossing?
    She also says “yard” in her affidavit and testimony.
    The gunman had to cross her yard before he crossed the street.
    Unfortunately for you and JC, the Davises testified that they couldn't see the guy after he went around the corner of the front yard. So they couldn't have seen him cross ANY street.

    You ignored all the above.

    Your theory is everyone was lying on the day of the murder to frame Oswald for the murder of Tippit, right? Explain why this was necessary (the murder of Tippit, and the framing of Oswald for that murder), I thought the goal was to frame him
    for the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice p207).

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.
    Sorry, no. Your *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to frame Oswald for the murder of of a fellow police officer.
    Actually, it was not so intended. You're jumping to conclusions. As I quoted, he just said "prepare" not, say, "invent".
    My *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to gather the evidence that Oswald shot Tippit.

    Note the wording: "I instructed my officers to *prepare a real good case* on the officer's killing" ... Not "I instructed my officers to *frame Oswald* on the officer's killing".

    Your quote doesn't say what you need it to say. You merely take the quote out of context and pretend it does to justify your belief that Oswald was framed. It doesn't say that.
    And I didn't say or imply that.
    And as always, you leave unanswered questions in the wake of your interpretation, like
    A. Why would Fritz want to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and let the real cop killer go free?
    B. Why would Fritz think every officer under his command would accede to his wishes (as your interpretation argues) to frame an innocent man and let J.D.Tippit's real killer go free? And do this in the first hours after the murder of Tippit?

    An extraordinary explanation demands extraordinary evidence. Not simply a unique *interpretation* of a clear instruction to build a solid case.

    Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.
    All the foregoing by Hank is based on a false, inferred premise.

    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so you
    simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    A false tale, as Virginia's affidavit shows.
    You need do more than simply allege this, based on your interpretation of her claims.
    You are begging the question and using circular reasoning here once more.
    Don ignored this point.
    A point lost in a thicket of >>>>,,,
    And you still don't explain it!
    I'll leave it to you to sort out the >>>>s...

    Hilarious!
    The discarded shells in evidence match the gun linked to Oswald through paperwork, that was wrested from his hand in the movie theatre after he slugged Officer McDonald.

    Pretty damning evidence.

    If you believe in shells initially handled by civilians, supposedly,
    Yes, civilians reported finding shells in the yard. So?
    Don ignored this point.
    I say "supposedly" because Sgt Hill later said that Benavides didn't handle any shells. And it took some 4 months for Benavides, in his testimony, to say that he did see the perp drop shells and that he did pick them up. Problems on both sides,
    temporally, of his testimony.
    Again, your *interpretation* of this alleged conflict is that Hill (who was supposedly instructed by Fritz to frame Oswald, according to your *interpretation* of Fritz's words above
    You started off on the wrong foot with your assumed "interpretations", then you run the whole race on the wrong foot.
    ), didn't do that, and helped reveal the frame-up, but only to you. You neither quote Hill's words
    "Benavides pointed [the shells] out to us [Hill & Poe], but he didn't handle the shells" (Hill, in a 1986 interview with Dale Myers. With Malice, p259).
    nor provide a link to them. Alleging things is not the same as establishing them. You also appear to suggest, based on nothing whatsoever, that Benavides lied in his testimony.
    Again, jumping to conclusions. "In a 1996 interview, Ted Callaway said that Benavides came to the used car lot the day after the shooting & confided that he hadn't actually seen the gunman.... He told me, he said 'I ain't gonna go down there & tell
    them my story unless they give me something. Callaway claimed that Benavides ended up with a new Pontiac Firebird, half of which was paid for by CBS." (With Malice pp220-221)

    So, did Callaway lie or did Benavides?
    Hill's testimony is here: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/hill_gl.htm
    He mentions "Benavides" not at all.
    Ooh, again a nice quote, but (as you see) irrelevant.

    Even if you provide a legitimate source for Hill's claim, you need to do more: You need to establish that Hill's hearsay assertion is accurate (How would Hill know whether Benavides handled any shells?)
    Hill. in that same interview, said he was there when the shells were picked up.
    , and Benavides testimony is false. You are currently simply assuming both of these.

    Poe testified that Benavides provided the shells to him (Poe): https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/poe.htm

    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Do you remember the name of the officer?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - No, sir; I didn't even ask him. I just told him that this was the shells that he had fired, and I handed them to him.

    and falsely witnessed by the Davises.
    Another unproven allegation by you.
    Don ignored this point.
    1) According to the police radio logs, the Davises called the dispatcher about a minute AFTER the first witness called from the scene. (Myers avoided the issue of this delayed response by not including it in his timeline.)
    How quickly might you think someone might think to look up the number of the Dallas Police in their phone book and dial their rotary phone?
    Myers' timetable: "Mrs. Mary Wright and Barbara Davis phone police from their homes." (at 1:15:40) WM p383
    Moreover, this is another unproven allegation by you. You neither cite the police radio logs to establish when the first witness called from the scene
    (Of course the first witness to call from the scene was TF Bowley, but from Tippit's radio, not from a residence.)
    , nor establish when the Davis' call was made.
    Mary Wright's address, 501 E. 10th, is broadcast 3 times at 1:19 (CE 1974, pp54-55); the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is cited about 1:21 (CE 1974 p57). You won't find a record of that in Myers....

    You want citations, you get them. But it takes time to find them, so I'll have to break off here...

    dcw

    You really need to step up your game. Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.

    2) Both Davises testified that they first saw the perp when Mrs. Markham started shouting about him. Mrs. M testified that she did not start shouting UNTIL the perp was running down Patton! Again, "falsely witnessed".
    Barbara Davis' affidavit: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/bdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    BD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Ditto with Virginia Davis? https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/vdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    VD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.
    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>
    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a
    statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make, nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling
    police that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in
    With Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove. It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"

    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there
    was therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep
    doing so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    Explain why framing Oswald (or anyone) was necessary to kill Kennedy.
    SEE ABOVE.
    There's nothing above that explains this.

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, > 1:
    15pm (p383). The dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 > E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57).
    Apparently, the Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the
    Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis address.
    That's what these Warren Commission supporters do.
    They only tell you what they want you to know. They NEVER tell you the whole story.
    It's called deception by omission.
    So Willis decides to take one word of context (from a witness he ignores 97% of the information she related) and somehow this reflects poorly on us?
    Sometimes all it takes is a word or a few words--remember "Z", which was based on fact: the phrase "lithe like a tiger" gave it all away.
    I didn`t care about your ideas at all, which is why I didn`t respond to your silly game playing. I objected to Gil`s idea that your silly game playing reflected poorly on us.
    What's silly about showing that Myers omits only the dispatcher's response to the Davis call, which response came about 2 minutes after his response to the Wright call? I guess it's like Kryptonite to both of you superboys....
    You wrote this...
    "She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony--"
    We saw the boy cutting across the street"
    This is silly game playing not worthy of a response.

    dcw
    That one word "street" reinforces Virginia Davis' statement in her original affidavit that she was at the side door on Patton.
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    "Yard", not "street".
    The gunman was then not in the yard,
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    She said Oswald was in the yard.
    but further away, too far for an accurate ID, and nowhere near where the spent shells were supposed to have been found, near the walk & window on the side.
    You are playing silly games, Don.
    I would phrase it as “grasping at straws”.
    And, as noted above, with Bud, it was a very good cover-up, hence the small but significant chinks in its armor.
    No, that’s still the logical fallacy of begging the question with a large dash of circular reasoning. Here
    you simply use the conclusion (it was a very good coverup) to support the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony). Originally, you were using the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony) to support
    your conclusion (there was a coverup).

    Please read up on circular reasoning and try to eliminate it from your arguments.

    Your argument is fallacious.

    (”The idiom 'grasping at straws' is used to mean an attempt to succeed—such as in an argument, debate or attempt at a solution—when nothing you choose is likely to work.”)

    The affidavit was on the afternoon of 11/22/63, within a few hours of Tippit’s murder. Let’s call it three hours later.

    Let's call these three hours one unit of time, thus there are eight such units per day (3 hours x 8 = 24).

    Her testimony was on April 2nd, 1964 - 132 days later. Or more than 1056 such units unitsof time (8 x 132 = 1056).

    Which is more likely to be accurate, her memory from one unit of time later, or her memory from over a thousand units of time later?
    Take your pick--the Virginia Davis of "side door on Patton" (affidavit), or the Virginia Davis of "saw him crossing the STREET" (testimony).
    Those are not the only choices. You are utilizing the logical fallacy of a false dilemma.

    In the affidavit, for example, she said “I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun.” You ignored this.

    In her testimony, she said “Then we heard the second shot and that is when we ran to the front door.”

    So please tell us how you determined which version is correct. You appear to be starting with the idea that a coverup existed, and interpreting all those statements through that coverup lens.
    Don ignored this point.

    Don asserts - without evidence - the Tippit witnesses were all lying in their signed affidavits on the afternoon of the assassination, and then plucks a word or a phrase out of their testimony or affidavit to attempt to turn what they each
    clearly said into something none of them said.

    You tell me how the word "street" got into her testimony. It doesn't fit. Unless she means "crossing Patton", as in her affidavit. What other street would the guy be crossing?
    She also says “yard” in her affidavit and testimony.
    The gunman had to cross her yard before he crossed the street.
    Unfortunately for you and JC, the Davises testified that they couldn't see the guy after he went around the corner of the front yard. So they couldn't have seen him cross ANY street.

    across my front yard unloading a gun. A woman was standing across the street screaming that "he shot him, he killed him" and pointed towards a police car. That is the first time I noticed a police car there. I ran back in the house and called the
    operator and reported this to the police. When the police arrived Ishowed [sic] one of them where I saw this man emptying his gun and we found a shell. After the police had left I went back into the yard and Virginia found another shell which I turned
    over to the police. About 8:00 pm the same day, the police came after me and took me downtown to the city hall where I saw this man in a lineup. The #2 man in a 4-man lineup was the same man I saw in my yard, also the one that was unloading the gun.

    You ignored all the above.
    And you fail to note that the affidavits contradict each other. Barbara D says that she went to the front door. Virginia D says that she went to the side door. Now of course if you go with Virginia D, she could have seen the man cross Patton--which was
    (see above) the issue here--crossing a street. But I did say "testified"--the two agreed with each other in their testimony, that they went to the *front* door and could not see the guy after he rounded the corner of the house. So I'm not sure what
    exactly you're objecting to. Just quoting something doesn't always clear things up....

    dcw Gotta run. Back later.
    Your theory is everyone was lying on the day of the murder to frame Oswald for the murder of Tippit, right? Explain why this was necessary (the murder of Tippit, and the framing of Oswald for that murder), I thought the goal was to frame him for
    the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice p207).

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.
    Sorry, no. Your *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to frame Oswald for the murder of of a fellow police officer.
    My *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to gather the evidence that Oswald shot Tippit.

    Note the wording: "I instructed my officers to *prepare a real good case* on the officer's killing" ... Not "I instructed my officers to *frame Oswald* on the officer's killing".

    Your quote doesn't say what you need it to say. You merely take the quote out of context and pretend it does to justify your belief that Oswald was framed. It doesn't say that.

    And as always, you leave unanswered questions in the wake of your interpretation, like
    A. Why would Fritz want to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and let the real cop killer go free?
    B. Why would Fritz think every officer under his command would accede to his wishes (as your interpretation argues) to frame an innocent man and let J.D.Tippit's real killer go free? And do this in the first hours after the murder of Tippit?

    An extraordinary explanation demands extraordinary evidence. Not simply a unique *interpretation* of a clear instruction to build a solid case.

    Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.

    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so you
    simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    A false tale, as Virginia's affidavit shows.
    You need do more than simply allege this, based on your interpretation of her claims.
    You are begging the question and using circular reasoning here once more.
    Don ignored this point.
    A point lost in a thicket of >>>>,,,
    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!
    The discarded shells in evidence match the gun linked to Oswald through paperwork, that was wrested from his hand in the movie theatre after he slugged Officer McDonald.

    Pretty damning evidence.

    If you believe in shells initially handled by civilians, supposedly,
    Yes, civilians reported finding shells in the yard. So?
    Don ignored this point.
    I say "supposedly" because Sgt Hill later said that Benavides didn't handle any shells. And it took some 4 months for Benavides, in his testimony, to say that he did see the perp drop shells and that he did pick them up. Problems on both sides,
    temporally, of his testimony.
    Again, your *interpretation* of this alleged conflict is that Hill (who was supposedly instructed by Fritz to frame Oswald, according to your *interpretation* of Fritz's words above), didn't do that, and helped reveal the frame-up, but only to you.
    You neither quote Hill's words nor provide a link to them. Alleging things is not the same as establishing them. You also appear to suggest, based on nothing whatsoever, that Benavides lied in his testimony.

    Hill's testimony is here: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/hill_gl.htm
    He mentions "Benavides" not at all.

    Even if you provide a legitimate source for Hill's claim, you need to do more: You need to establish that Hill's hearsay assertion is accurate (How would Hill know whether Benavides handled any shells?), and Benavides testimony is false. You are
    currently simply assuming both of these.

    Poe testified that Benavides provided the shells to him (Poe): https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/poe.htm

    Mr. BALL. What did he tell you?
    Mr. POE. He told me, give me the same, or similar description of the man, and told me he was running out across this lawn. He was unloading his pistol as he ran, and he picked the shells up.
    Mr. BALL. Domingo told you who was running across the lawn?

    Mr. BELIN - Did you later go back in that area and try and find the shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes. Well, right after that I went back and I knew exactly where they was at, and I went over and picked up one in my hand, not thinking and I dropped it, that maybe they want fingerprints off it, so I took out an empty pack of
    cigarettes I had and picked them up with a little stick and put them in this cigarette package; a chrome looking shell.
    ...
    Mr. BELIN - When you put these two shells that you found in this cigarette package, what did you do with them?

    1) According to the police radio logs, the Davises called the dispatcher about a minute AFTER the first witness called from the scene. (Myers avoided the issue of this delayed response by not including it in his timeline.)

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of a
    statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make, nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling
    police that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage, in
    With Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove. It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"

    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out there
    was therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep doing
    so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    Explain why framing Oswald (or anyone) was necessary to kill Kennedy.
    SEE ABOVE.
    There's nothing above that explains this.

    Another Myers omission covers for the Davises

    His deep-sixing of the phrase "in the head" wasn't the only time that Dale Myers misled by omission. In "With Malice", he has witnesses Mary Wright and Barbara Davis, respectively, calling the DPD at the same time, > 1:
    15pm (p383). The dispatchers then cite Wright's address, on the police radio--three times--four minutes later, at 1:19pm (CE 1974:57) However, it's about six minutes later, about 1:21, before the Davis address, 400 > E. 10th, is broadcast (CE 1974:57).
    Apparently, the Davises called a little later than did Wright. And Mr. Myers seems aware of the prickly problem here: Although he scrupulously records the broadcast times of the
    Wright address, on the police radio, in his text (pp104-105), he omits the only, belated mention of the Davis address.
    That's what these Warren Commission supporters do.
    They only tell you what they want you to know.
    They NEVER tell you the whole story.
    It's called deception by omission.
    So Willis decides to take one word of context (from a witness he ignores 97% of the information she related) and somehow this reflects poorly on us?
    Sometimes all it takes is a word or a few words--remember "Z", which was based on fact: the phrase "lithe like a tiger" gave it all away.
    I didn`t care about your ideas at all, which is why I didn`t respond to your silly game playing. I objected to Gil`s idea that your silly game playing reflected poorly on us.
    What's silly about showing that Myers omits only the dispatcher's response to the Davis call, which response came about 2 minutes after his response to the Wright call? I guess it's like Kryptonite to both of you superboys....
    You wrote this...
    "She gives away the deception with one slip--one word--in her Commission testimony, which brings her affidavit into even sharper focus. Her affidavit's "I saw the boy cutting across our yard" becomes--at one point in her testimony-
    -"We saw the boy cutting across the street"
    This is silly game playing not worthy of a response.

    dcw
    That one word "street" reinforces Virginia Davis' statement in her original affidavit that she was at the side door on Patton.
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    "Yard", not "street".
    The gunman was then not in the yard,
    From her affidavit...
    "I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun."
    She said Oswald was in the yard.
    but further away, too far for an accurate ID, and nowhere near where the spent shells were supposed to have been found, near the walk & window on the side.
    You are playing silly games, Don.
    I would phrase it as “grasping at straws”.
    And, as noted above, with Bud, it was a very good cover-up, hence the small but significant chinks in its armor.
    No, that’s still the logical fallacy of begging the question with a large dash of circular reasoning. Here
    you simply use the conclusion (it was a very good coverup) to support the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony). Originally, you were using the premise (your interpretation of the discrepancies in testimony) to
    support your conclusion (there was a coverup).

    Please read up on circular reasoning and try to eliminate it from your arguments.

    Your argument is fallacious.

    (”The idiom 'grasping at straws' is used to mean an attempt to succeed—such as in an argument, debate or attempt at a solution—when nothing you choose is likely to work.”)

    The affidavit was on the afternoon of 11/22/63, within a few hours of Tippit’s murder. Let’s call it three hours later.

    Let's call these three hours one unit of time, thus there are eight such units per day (3 hours x 8 = 24).

    Her testimony was on April 2nd, 1964 - 132 days later. Or more than 1056 such units unitsof time (8 x 132 = 1056).

    Which is more likely to be accurate, her memory from one unit of time later, or her memory from over a thousand units of time later?
    Take your pick--the Virginia Davis of "side door on Patton" (affidavit), or the Virginia Davis of "saw him crossing the STREET" (testimony).
    Those are not the only choices. You are utilizing the logical fallacy of a false dilemma.

    In the affidavit, for example, she said “I saw the boy cutting across our yard and he was unloading his gun.” You ignored this.

    In her testimony, she said “Then we heard the second shot and that is when we ran to the front door.”

    So please tell us how you determined which version is correct. You appear to be starting with the idea that a coverup existed, and interpreting all those statements through that coverup lens.
    Don ignored this point.

    Don asserts - without evidence - the Tippit witnesses were all lying in their signed affidavits on the afternoon of the assassination, and then plucks a word or a phrase out of their testimony or affidavit to attempt to turn what they
    each clearly said into something none of them said.

    You tell me how the word "street" got into her testimony. It doesn't fit. Unless she means "crossing Patton", as in her affidavit. What other street would the guy be crossing?
    She also says “yard” in her affidavit and testimony.
    The gunman had to cross her yard before he crossed the street.
    Unfortunately for you and JC, the Davises testified that they couldn't see the guy after he went around the corner of the front yard. So they couldn't have seen him cross ANY street.

    You ignored all the above.

    Your theory is everyone was lying on the day of the murder to frame Oswald for the murder of Tippit, right? Explain why this was necessary (the murder of Tippit, and the framing of Oswald for that murder), I thought the goal was to frame him
    for the murder of the President. Did the conspirators have a boatload of money to spend before the end of the year and decided to do a two-for-one deal, or what? Why throw in a second shooting at all?
    Oh, an easy one! I'll turn the podium over to my good friend, Capt. J.W. Fritz:
    "I instructed my officers to prepare a real good case on the officer's killing so we would have a case to hold him without bond while we investigated the President's killing, where WE DIDN'T HAVE SO MANY WITNESSES." (With Malice p207).

    Thank you, Willy. You'll make Hank very happy.
    Sorry, no. Your *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to frame Oswald for the murder of of a fellow police officer.
    Actually, it was not so intended. You're jumping to conclusions. As I quoted, he just said "prepare" not, say, "invent".
    My *interpretation* of this statement is that Fritz was instructing his officers to gather the evidence that Oswald shot Tippit.

    Note the wording: "I instructed my officers to *prepare a real good case* on the officer's killing" ... Not "I instructed my officers to *frame Oswald* on the officer's killing".

    Your quote doesn't say what you need it to say. You merely take the quote out of context and pretend it does to justify your belief that Oswald was framed. It doesn't say that.
    And I didn't say or imply that.
    And as always, you leave unanswered questions in the wake of your interpretation, like
    A. Why would Fritz want to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and let the real cop killer go free?
    B. Why would Fritz think every officer under his command would accede to his wishes (as your interpretation argues) to frame an innocent man and let J.D.Tippit's real killer go free? And do this in the first hours after the murder of Tippit?

    An extraordinary explanation demands extraordinary evidence. Not simply a unique *interpretation* of a clear instruction to build a solid case.

    Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.
    All the foregoing by Hank is based on a false, inferred premise.

    Since other witnesses claim the gunman discarded the shells from a revolver as he crossed the yard, it makes more sense to understand she simply spoke of witnessing both him crossing yard and then the street. But you need a conflict, so
    you simply assume it is an either/or situation, and artificially ignore the possibility of both occurring.
    Reading their affidavits and testimony, one story emerges: a young, slender white male shot Tippit and emptied and reloaded his revolver as he walked away, discarding the shells as he did so.

    A false tale, as Virginia's affidavit shows.
    You need do more than simply allege this, based on your interpretation of her claims.
    You are begging the question and using circular reasoning here once more.
    Don ignored this point.
    A point lost in a thicket of >>>>,,,
    And you still don't explain it!
    I'll leave it to you to sort out the >>>>s...

    Hilarious!
    The discarded shells in evidence match the gun linked to Oswald through paperwork, that was wrested from his hand in the movie theatre after he slugged Officer McDonald.

    Pretty damning evidence.

    If you believe in shells initially handled by civilians, supposedly,
    Yes, civilians reported finding shells in the yard. So?
    Don ignored this point.
    I say "supposedly" because Sgt Hill later said that Benavides didn't handle any shells. And it took some 4 months for Benavides, in his testimony, to say that he did see the perp drop shells and that he did pick them up. Problems on both sides,
    temporally, of his testimony.
    Again, your *interpretation* of this alleged conflict is that Hill (who was supposedly instructed by Fritz to frame Oswald, according to your *interpretation* of Fritz's words above
    You started off on the wrong foot with your assumed "interpretations", then you run the whole race on the wrong foot.
    ), didn't do that, and helped reveal the frame-up, but only to you. You neither quote Hill's words
    "Benavides pointed [the shells] out to us [Hill & Poe], but he didn't handle the shells" (Hill, in a 1986 interview with Dale Myers. With Malice, p259).
    nor provide a link to them. Alleging things is not the same as establishing them. You also appear to suggest, based on nothing whatsoever, that Benavides lied in his testimony.
    Again, jumping to conclusions. "In a 1996 interview, Ted Callaway said that Benavides came to the used car lot the day after the shooting & confided that he hadn't actually seen the gunman.... He told me, he said 'I ain't gonna go down there & tell
    them my story unless they give me something. Callaway claimed that Benavides ended up with a new Pontiac Firebird, half of which was paid for by CBS." (With Malice pp220-221)

    So, did Callaway lie or did Benavides?
    Hill's testimony is here: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/hill_gl.htm
    He mentions "Benavides" not at all.
    Ooh, again a nice quote, but (as you see) irrelevant.

    Even if you provide a legitimate source for Hill's claim, you need to do more: You need to establish that Hill's hearsay assertion is accurate (How would Hill know whether Benavides handled any shells?)
    Hill. in that same interview, said he was there when the shells were picked up.
    , and Benavides testimony is false. You are currently simply assuming both of these.

    Poe testified that Benavides provided the shells to him (Poe): https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/poe.htm
    == quote ==
    Mr. POE. I talked to a Spanish man, but I don't remember his name. Dominique, I believe.

    Mr. BALL. What did he tell you?
    Mr. POE. He told me, give me the same, or similar description of the man, and told me he was running out across this lawn. He was unloading his pistol as he ran, and he picked the shells up.
    Mr. BALL. Domingo told you who was running across the lawn?
    Mr. POE. A man, white man.
    Mr. BALL. What was he doing?
    Mr. POE. He was unloading his pistol as he run.

    Mr. BELIN - Now you saw him throw two shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - You saw where he threw the shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Did you later go back in that area and try and find the shells?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes. Well, right after that I went back and I knew exactly where they was at, and I went over and picked up one in my hand, not thinking and I dropped it, that maybe they want fingerprints off it, so I took out an empty pack of
    cigarettes I had and picked them up with a little stick and put them in this cigarette package; a chrome looking shell.
    ...
    Mr. BELIN - When you put these two shells that you found in this cigarette package, what did you do with them?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - I gave them to an officer.
    Mr. BELIN - That came out to the scene shortly after?
    Mr. BENAVIDES - Yes, sir.
    Mr. BELIN - Do you remember the name of the officer?

    and falsely witnessed by the Davises.
    Another unproven allegation by you.
    Don ignored this point.
    1) According to the police radio logs, the Davises called the dispatcher about a minute AFTER the first witness called from the scene. (Myers avoided the issue of this delayed response by not including it in his timeline.)
    How quickly might you think someone might think to look up the number of the Dallas Police in their phone book and dial their rotary phone?
    Myers' timetable: "Mrs. Mary Wright and Barbara Davis phone police from their homes." (at 1:15:40) WM p383
    Moreover, this is another unproven allegation by you. You neither cite the police radio logs to establish when the first witness called from the scene
    (Of course the first witness to call from the scene was TF Bowley, but from Tippit's radio, not from a residence.)
    , nor establish when the Davis' call was made.
    Mary Wright's address, 501 E. 10th, is broadcast 3 times at 1:19 (CE 1974, pp54-55); the Davis address, 400 E. 10th, is cited about 1:21 (CE 1974 p57). You won't find a record of that in Myers....

    You want citations, you get them. But it takes time to find them, so I'll have to break off here...

    dcw

    You really need to step up your game. Your *interpretations* of the evidence are not evidence.

    2) Both Davises testified that they first saw the perp when Mrs. Markham started shouting about him. Mrs. M testified that she did not start shouting UNTIL the perp was running down Patton! Again, "falsely witnessed".
    Barbara Davis' affidavit: https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/bdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    BD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Ditto with Virginia Davis? https://www.jfk-assassination.net/russ/testimony/vdavis.htm
    She was lying on the evening of the assassination to frame Oswald?
    VD was more than happy to frame an innocent man for the murder of a police officer and even pick the poor schmuck out of a lineup to help frame him? And she never had a change of heart and came forward to say otherwise?

    Your claims are contrary to the evidence.
    To get around this, critics alleged the witness lied and/or their testimony altered, the shells in evidence were planted or swapped, the revolver in evidence was swapped, the paperwork tying Oswald to the revolver was falsified.
    Did I summarize your beliefs correctly here? You didn't quibble over this, so it appears I did.
    Don ignored this point.
    Again, point lost in a thicket of >>>>
    And you still don't explain it!

    Hilarious!

    Moreover, in the 60 years since the murder (ok, minus a few months - conspiracy mongers do like to quibble, don't they?) none of the Tippit witnesses recanted and none admitted to anything like Don and other critics suggest.
    Mrs. Markham kept insisting that the gunman ran down the alley off Patton, in later interviews.
    People are human. Everyone makes mistakes. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to throw out everything she said based on one error.
    Who the fuck said it was an error? You're assuming.
    It doesn't work that way.
    You’re assuming it was as well, an error where she inadvertently stated the truth and revealed the coverup. Aren’t you?
    As it happen, No. The initial crime scene sketch of the 10th/Patton area notes that the perp went "W on all(e)y to Crawford". The sketch was drawn by Sgt. Barnes, who mentioned only one witness in his WC testimony--Mrs M. And Mrs. M later told
    interviewers that she saw the suspect run into the alley.

    You were assuming that I was assuming, when the finger is actually pointing at you....
    Okay, granting that for the sake of argument (but you again don't cite for it and apparently expect us to just take your word for it), how does that establish that Markham was accurate in her recollection?

    You're assuming it wasn't an error. You are looking at one witness in isolation, and attempting to rejigger the murder of Tippit so that Oswald comes out framed, by selecting a tidbit from here, a mis-statement from there, a re-interpretation of
    a statement from somewhere else...
    McWatters recanted on his ID of Oswald in the lineup. Then, yes, later, in his testimony, he recanted on his recantation!
    He was the bus driver, wasn't he? What's that got to do with the Tippit shooting?
    Don ignored this point.
    It's got everything to do with the broader subject of witness lineup IDs. The McW case shows that the IDs are as problematic as their testimony.
    Again you cite for neither assertion you make, nor do you show how McWatters testimony about who rode his bus taints the lineups shown the witnesses of the Tippit murder and its immediate aftermath.
    Same-day TV footage showed that Warren Reynolds changed his story for the Commission, where he testified that he last saw the guy headed for the parking lot. (The footage shows him before one of the two old houses, where he was telling
    police that he last saw the guy headed.) In fact, that footage is better than a recantation.
    Didn't the police search those old houses and find nothing suspicious?
    Yeah--15 minutes or so after the guy would have left. You think perps are going to hang around for the police?
    If there was ever a perp there at all.
    Ah! Time for you to go into your "fallacy" mode... It took me several postings to convince Bud--some years back--that Reynolds was telling police that the guy ran into one of the old houses--one of the convincers was a clip from news footage,
    in With Malice.
    yes, it is a fallacy to assume what you need to prove. It's called Begging the Question. And you are clearly assuming it, and imbedding it into your point with the argument "You think perps are going to hang around for the police?"

    This is akin to another CT's assertion that there were shots from the Dal-Tex Building. When asked for the evidence of this other weapon, he argued the building was never searched, so of course he couldn't provide any evidence! I pointed out
    there was therefore as much evidence of unicorns acting as spotters as there was for a shooter in the Dal-Tex building. He didn't get the point. I doubt you will.
    Once more you are assuming what you need to prove and imbedding that assumption in your argument as a given. That’s the logical fallacy of BEGGING THE QUESTION. I’ve asked you to stop committing these logical fallacies but you just keep
    doing so.
    I see I already explained this to you. But you persisted in the fallacy.


    At this point it looks from here more like the purpose of the plot was to frame Oswald, and the killing of Kennedy was merely incidental to that frame-up.
    Do you disagree?
    Both were necessary to the villains.
    Explain why killing Tippit was necessary to frame Oswald for a crime of killing Kennedy. You are alleging Oswald was framed for killing Tippit.
    SEE ABOVE
    There's nothing above that explains this.
    Explain why framing Oswald (or anyone) was necessary to kill Kennedy.
    SEE ABOVE.
    There's nothing above that explains this.

    Hank demands that you, well, not YOU, not Nutters, but he demands that those who disagree with him answer every single one of his multitude of Lame Ass Points, no matter how ridiculous they are. He should expect the same in return.

    You are constantly ignoring the points he makes.

    But that wasn`t even the point. I`ll try to dumb it down for you. Hank addressing the things you said in a post you made. In these posts you ignore many the points he made. Instead you choose misdirect to posts where he didn`t respond at all.

    Depends. If I`m in a "give and take" series of exchanges with Don and he makes a point I ignore, than yes, the point stands. If it has been previously addressed then repeating it doesn`t make it a new point.
