Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

No, Backes. Kennedy was hit when the limo was behind the Stemmons freeway sign. When he emerges from behind it, he is reacting. And remember there were two shots: one to his back and one to his throat. So, the first hit may have happened in the teens. 

And in response to the throat shot, he raises his hands to his throat. 

Ever hear of Gil Jesus? He's a JFK researcher of about 1000X your caliber. He points out that Kennedy tried to cough to clear his airway of that bullet. He covers his mouth with his right hand to build pressure, and he grabs his tie with his left hand in order to loosen it.

These are actions that he is doing voluntarily. And he seems to have succeeded because he is not struggling to breathe after that. It's not as though he's gasping and suffocating until the fatal head shot. But, after clearing his airway, he doesn't let go of his arms. 

Here he is at frame 260, and he's still all contracted. Jackie is trying to get him to relax his arm. I don't know what was going through her head at that point, but it was uncomfortable for her to see him all contracted like that. Connally was shot already as well.  

But, the point is that Kennedy initiated the actions of raising his arms. That wasn't a reflex and it wasn't a Thorburn reaction, although it was instinctual. But then he wouldn't let go. 

For decades, people have been wondering whether Kennedy was hit with a paralyzing agent. One of them was your hero, Richard E. Sprague.

Remember him? The guy who gave you the idea for the "other African-American?" He thought it was Umbrella Man shooting a poison dart. I don't buy that because, hey, where's the dart? 

But remember what I told you, Backes. I said that Kennedy was hit in the back with a bullet that did not traverse him. It just stopped inside him and quite superficially. So, what could cause a bullet to do that? To have the power to reach him from a great distance on a straight line trajectory but then be stopped promptly by skin, fascia, and muscle? 

I told you that you had to start by answering that, explaining that, laying out what happened. But, you didn't do it. You didn't say a word about it. You don't know. You don't care. You're just a blood-soaked Kennedy-killer who isn't the least bit interested in the things that really matter. 

What happened to the back bullet, Backes? What happened to the back bullet, Backes? What happened to the back bullet, Backes? You can't say it went through him and came out his throat because you pretend to be an Oswald defender, remember? That means you can't embrace the Single Bullet Theory. So, what happened to the back bullet, Backes? What happened to the back bullet, Backes? What happened to the back bullet, Backes?
