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

bpete's failure to find Lovelady's "real" arrow is tantamount to an admission from him that he knows very well that it is not there, and the only other mark on the photograph is the one that I found. If you go to the history-matters webpage for CE 369 you can plainly see the line that I'm talking about. I'm not going to post it here because bpete will just say that I altered it. So go look at it there.

You see that little line or mark over the forearm?  That's what I am talking about. 

This is a Smoking Gun. We don't have to ask if there's anything else there because if there were, it would have been found by now- at least by me. Don't you think I've looked?  

I have diligently searched for another arrow in the black, and particularly one that might be pointing to Doorman, since that has been the assumption. But, it isn't there. There is absolutely nothing there. 

What this means is that as late as April 1964, Lovelady identified himself as Black Hole Man. He drew his arrow very small because he knew that he was delivering a shock to Joseph Ball- it was not what he wanted to see. Billy wasn't going to add insult to injury by making the arrow big. 

But, Ball got the message, and he passed the word along quickly that Lovelady was not cooperating. And surely, Billy was visited after that by some big guys in dark suits and sun glasses and was made to see that his health and the health of his family depended on him telling it their way. And so he did, but you can imagine how haunted he was by it. 

It's not the same shirt sprawl, is it. Lovelady looks primped and primed for the hootenaney. Do you think he messed with his shirt like that on 11/22? He went to work to lay flooring. And notice that Billy's shirt had all its buttons, therefore, why would it have been perched open like Doorman's? Oswald's buttons were missing, so he had no choice. But, what was Billy's excuse? Hot day?

And look at all the contrast in Billy's shirt. He's got vertical and horizontal white lines along with horizontal black stripes framing a strange color that I can't even describe. In fact, let's compare his shirt to Gorilla Man's shirt.

  

The shirt appears to have changed from orange to red. On the left, the white lines are much thicker. they are as thick as the black lines, but on the right, the black lines are much thicker than the white lines. On the left, the shirt has a big pocket and pocket flap- as those flannel shirts often do. On the right, there is the fine stitching of the pocket, but there is definitely no pocket flap. When he posed in 1967, there didn't seem to be any pocket at all.

But, getting back to CE 369, there isn't any question that I am right. That is Lovelady's arrow, the tail of it; it has to be. There is nothing else it can be. Claims that it's an accidental swipe are just the ignorant claims of uneducated people who know nothing of the neuro-muscular biomechanics of a swipe. That is a precise, deliberate, discreet mark that someone put there- on purpose. About that, there is no doubt.
