Why? It was his wife's garage. Marina and June had moved in, but not Lee. He knew Lee didn't live there. If a couple aren't living together, wouldn't you expect the folding shovels and tent poles to stay with the husband? Why would Marina have brought that back from New Orleans? She had a child, and she was about to give birth. She had limited room in Ruth Paine's station wagon. Why would she include camping equipment? So, if that's what he thought that it was, then why would he think that it was hers?
He knew their story. He knew how poor they were. He knew that they were homeless half the time. That's why they were living with his wife. How does camping equipment fit into that equation? How would camping equipment have gotten down to New Orleans in the first place? Oswald moved down there alone- by bus. Paine had to know that. So, did Oswald take the camping equipment on the bus?Of course not.
And then, after all that pondering he did about what the heck was inside that blanket- and let's face it: if it was an intact rifle, he could have felt it in its entirety through the blanket- he said he was reluctant to peek into the blanket because of concern for their privacy.
Hey Paine! This ain't the Warren Commission. They ate up your bull shit; I won't. Don't ever try to tell me that you refrained from looking inside a blanket out of privacy concerns because this is the response you'll get:
But, let's shift to talking about the rifle, shall we? Because that's what it was, right? So, how'd the rifle get there, Paine? You can't tell me that Oswald snuck it in the garage because he didn't live there. He came to visit his family- a few times- but he didn't live there. So, how can you assume that he snuck it in there? When? How? And since he didn't live there and had no expectation or prospect of living there, why would he even want to keep his rifle there?
The story has it that he ordered the rifle in March 1963 and had it sent to his PO Box in Dallas. From there, it went to his home- where he was living with Marina. Right? So, at the end of April he leaves alone by bus for New Orleans. It must have been by bus, right? Because if someone had driven him from Dallas to New Orleans, we've have a name. After 52 years, we would have a name. So, why would Oswald travel on a bus with a rifle? He had to know that he would stand out, that it would be a spectacle, a concern. Plus, he, reportedly, was going to stay with his aunt right away. How would it look if he shows up at her door with a rifle? Who would do that?
He went to New Orleans to look for a job. What did he need a rifle for? Was he thinking that he might have some killing to do? Is that the story?
There is no evidence-whatsoever- of that rifle being in Oswald's possession for the nearly 6 months that he was in New Orleans.
There is no evidence of him using it, mentioning it, showing it, discussing it, or having it. No one has the right to assume that Oswald had that rifle in New Orleans because there is nothing to base it on.
And if he didn't have it in New Orleans, it means he didn't return with it from New Orleans and neither did his wife. And for Christ's sake, Man! Why the hell would a woman who had a child and was about to give birth to another bring a rifle back with her? And even if you think Oswald wanted her to, "Psst. Honey. Sneak my rifle into Ruth's garage, would you?" She would have said no, as in:
"No, Lee. I am not taking your rifle back. You're not going to be living there anyway, so why should you keep your rifle there? Ruth is my friend, and she is doing me a big favor, a big charity. I am not going to sneak your rifle into her garage against her will. What kind of friend would I be? Just forget it."
Lee and Marina had fights, you know. They were famous for it. And she certainly would have stood up to him about that.
Listen up, Paine: The whole rifle story is a crock o' shit, and you know it. You and your wife set Oswald up. And your storytelling isn't worth a damn.
