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

This, according to MacRae, is how it worked if the time was to be 1:45 or 4:00.

Those were 5 inch tickets that I printed, and I don't think we can assume they were any longer than that because the ticket had to fit unfolded into Oswald's pocket. If it had been folded, it would have been creased. And if it was longer than the pocket, it would have been frayed. But, Oswald's ticket looked not the least bit folded or crumpled or frayed. 

Those were very precise cuts I made, requiring painstaking accuracy in lining up the scissors. You think the bus drivers were doing that? For every passenger? You think they had a machine that did it? There were no computers back then, and if the driver had to line the ticket up in some kind of mechanical cutter and make sure it was exactly right before letting it rip, what a burden! It would have taken a hell of a lot of accuracy. Why bother? Wouldn't it be easier to just punch it? And wouldn't it look better?  

I'm not buying this shit, MacRae. And neither are you. You think the bus ticket was planted on Oswald and that he never laid eyes on McWatters. You're just being a shit because being a shit is what a shit does.
