On one of the Facebook pages, they are discussing the idea that the fatal head shot came from underground. Of course, I've heard this theory before, but I haven't been participating, and it's because I don't claim to know. My gut feeling is that it didn't. And that's because there would be such limited visual opportunity to get the shot off. Unless you think Greer deliberately stopped the limo close to it and waited, but that seems far-fetched too. And how many assassins have experience shooting from that angle? Have any other killings been accomplished this way? If not, why assume they would even think of it? We know for sure that they had shooters in the Dal-Tex Building, on top of the Country Records Building, and behind the fence on the Grassy Knoll. And they may have had a shooter at the railroad crossing. Wasn't that enough? Did they really need to go underground? But hey, I don't claim to be an authority on this. So, I am just thinking out loud here. I am not taking a position. I am not claiming to know.
But, when it comes to the Moorman photo, I am very confident in saying that she didn't take it. And where my confidence comes from are multiple and overlapping reasons to believe she didn't take it. Some of them are behavioral: for instance, the idea that she would be poised and ready to shoot her picture even before the Kennedys reached her, and then for no explicable reason wait until they passed her and shoot the back of their heads. But then, she didn't even point her camera at them because they are not centered in the picture. That's weird too because she went there to photograph the President. Everybody and his sister points their camera at the object of their intention, which in this case was the Kennedys. So, why are they so far west of center in the Moorman photo?
I am finding very widespread agreement that the Moorman Photo was taken at the Z-315/316. Look at the similarity to this image:
Now, what reason is there to think that that was not the same moment in time? Look how consistent Jack and Jackie are with their counterparts in the Moorman Photo? If it wasn't the exact same split-second, it had to be close, very close. But, Mary Moorman could not have taken it. You see where she is. So, if she was shooting the Kennedys (and she never claimed to be shooting anyone else but them) how could she capture what we see in the Moorman photo? It's impossible because the motorcycle cops haven't even reached her yet, never mind passed her.
Of course, Babushka Lady is in the perfect position to have taken it. It's easy to accept that, for her, that nearest motorcycle cop would loom large in HER picture because of his proximity to her.
The people who are denying this are just being nihilists. They are rejecting it just because it's been accepted for 51 years, and it's too much of a mental strain for them to budge from that position. Well, it's no way to conduct research. You go where the facts take you, and you are a slave only to logic and objectivity. And childishly, people are acting as though we should reject this because it's upsetting to Mary Moorman. Well, I'm not trying to upset her. I have no wish to do that. But, we have to objectively determine whether or not she took the photo, relying on physics. If the Physics says she didn't, she didn't. And the Physics says she didn't.
