Considering what happened at the Venezuelan Embassy in Washington in recent days, I'm thinking that I got off easy being allowed to conduct my Altgens reenactment in Dealey Plaza in 2012. It was two successive weekends in November, and both times, it was bit of a spectacle. One woman even asked me for my autograph.  It definitely attracted attention and altered the usual ambiance of Dealey Plaza, and very easily, police could have said that we were disturbing the peace, holding an event on public property without a permit, etc. 

And a lot got accomplished. For instance, I proved that the image of the headless man in the doorway of the Altgens photo is bogus, that it can't possibly be real.

That's what happens when you visor your eyes with two hands. You don't blacken out your whole face. You can plainly see that the guy has a face. It looks nothing like this:


Why would anyone accept that image? And really, it's funny because, so much light was reaching the guy's face that he had to visor his eyes with his hands. And yet, his whole head is like a black hole? It's ridiculous. There is no way it could happen. The Laws of Physics and Optics say it can't happen, and those are laws that can't be broken. 

So why, at the time, and since, did anyone accept that image of a headless man? Why didn't anyone and everyone say, "No fucking way!"? The answer is: Orwellianism. 

The Altgens photo was taken by the AP, but it quickly became the evidence of the State: the Almighty Leviathan State. And when the Almighty Leviathan State tells you that a photo is legit, that it has not been subjected to criminal alteration, then that settles it: everything in it is valid, and only the most defiant anti-government resistor will question it. 

And, I admit that at the time of the assassination, and for years and decades thereafter, virtually nobody questioned the authenticity of the Altgens photo. They looked at that guy, and the freaky guy in front of him, without blinking an eye. And really, it's baffling because on November 22, 1963, somebody questioned the authenticity of a photo and said it was fraudulent. That somebody was Lee Harvey Oswald, who said that the Backyard Photo that he was shown was fake. 

So, it seems to me that everyone who believed in Oswald's innocence should have listened to him and believed him that it wasn't him in the Backyard photo. And considering that that fakery was done BEFORE the assassination, then obviously the plotters already had the means and the mindset to alter photos before the event even happened, hence, they most certainly would have been prepared to do it after the event.

So, why didn't anyone question the validity of the Altgens photo? It's because that photo was the government's photo, and if you claimed it was criminally altered, you would be, in effect, accusing the U.S. government of complicity in Kennedy's murder. 

Just think: not even James Altgens, himself, questioned the validity of the photo, even though he was a professional photographer who took and assessed photos his whole working life. Surely, he never saw anything like this before:


There is so much freaky stuff there. From left to right: the weird kid who is wearing a wool cap pulled down over his ears on a 71 degree day while levitating in the air next to his mother, who can't possibly be holding him. There is Doorman whose left shoulder is cut off. He is not leaning. You can see that his head is vertical, right? It means that he is not leaning. His left shoulder is cut off. There is an impossible relationship there between him and the man behind him, where they are both covering each other up at the same time. But, that's impossible because Doorman was in front of the other guy. So, no part of Doorman should be covered by the other guy. But, they put that other guy in there. His entire image is bogus. And why exactly would he be turned and facing the east wall of the doorway? What could he have been looking at? Then, there is the headless man whom we call Black Hole Man since his head is like a black hole in outer space. Then, there is the short, portly guy in front of him who, apparently, has 3 arms: 2 which he has folded across his chest, and a 3rd arm with which he is visoring his eyes? But, keep in mind that this close-up has been Photoshopped. It doesn't look like that in the original photo, like the one published in LIFE magazine in October 1964, which I have, which just looks like a white blotch. 

Then, there is the African-American woman with the gigantic hair. It's like she has a very high afro, but she didn't. Her hair was in a bob.

It did not look like this:


 And then there is the African-American man who consists of a face in profile and a shamrock-shaped torso with no arms. 


It says that the Black Tie Man is fake, but so is the Black Man. That's actually an image of Carl Jones that was taken by Phil Willis taken 3 hours after the assassination.


Yup, no doubt about it; that's where they got it. They just stuck it in there, probably to hide the tear in Oswald's shirt that would have given away that it was him. But, of course, it's still obviously him. Same man; same clothes. 


But, the point is that that freaky doorway should have caused alarm bells to go off in everyone's head. But, it would have been like telling the Emperor that he wore no clothes. 


The Altgens Family
Da nah nah nah.

Da nah nah nah.


Da nah nah nah; Da nah nah nah; Da nah nah nah.

They're creepy and they're kooky, 
Mysterious and spooky, 
They're all together ooky, 
The Altgens Family. 

Their doorway's a museum 
When people come to see 'em 
They really are a scree'um 
The Altgens Family. 

Neat.

Sweet.

Petite.

So get a witches shawl on 
A broomstick you can crawl on 
We're gonna pay a call on 
The Altgens Family.


Their names are still debated,
Black Hole and Obfuscated,
Their histories are related,
The Altgens Family.

See Oswald is the Doorman,
He doesn't have a prayer, Man,
Lovelady's got no hair, Man,
The Altgens Family

Lee.


Shel-ly'.


Bil-ly'.


Lee's innocent, you dodo,
Scan Altgens' altered photo
For characters we all know,
The Altgens Family.
