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

I have provided multiple reasons why the Carolyn Arnold 1978 revision should be categorically rejected, including the fact that we don't even know that it came from her. It definitely didn't come directly from her, and Earl Golz may have been bamboozled. He may have been swindled by a double with mediocre acting skills. But even worse than that, in my opinion, is the simple fact that it was the Dallas Morning News that spread the story. There has been no newspaper in the country more loathing of JFK conspiracy theorists than the Dallas Morning News. Talk about a wolf in sheep's clothing. So, the idea that the DMN would suddenly and nonchalantly report something that totally exonerates Oswald and points to conspiracy is ludicrous. Might as well have the Pope saying that Catholics got it wrong, that Islam is the one true religion.

The irony is that my enemies can't argue with me about this; at least, not most of them. And that's because most of them say that Oswald was up on the 6th floor shooting at Kennedy at 12:30 and therefore could not have been eating lunch in the 2nd floor lunch room at 12:25.

And to those of my enemies who profess that Oswald was innocent, why would Oswald lie about where he ate lunch? He said that he ate lunch in the 1st floor lunch room, and that was reported by Fritz and Bookhout and others. So, if you profess to defend Oswald, why do you call him a liar? 

But, my point is that since the alleged Carolyn Arnold revision has no credibility and could not be entered in court since it's hearsay, it  eliminates completely the 2nd floor lunch room as a possible location for Oswald at the time of the shooting. And it got eliminated before that by Officer Marrion Baker in 1963. That's because Baker said that Oswald was moving and just entering the 2nd floor lunch room when he first saw him at 12:31. So, if Oswald was just getting to the 2nd floor lunch room at 12:31, you can't claim that he was there at 12:30. It's not that it was physically impossible for him to have been there at 12:30; but, that would mean that he left and then came back; and there is no reason to propose that. There is no basis to assume it. There is no reason to go there mentally. Even speculations have to be tied to reality; to something that is real. It's not like Imagination Day at Kindergarten where you can make up anything you want. 

Baker reported that he saw Oswald entering the 2nd floor lunch room from the office side of the second floor. Remember: there was an anteroom, which was just a passageway, and it had 3 doors: one providing access from the office side; one providing access from the stairway side; and one that entered the lunch room. If Oswald had entered from the same side that Baker was on, Baker wouldn't have seen him at all, and it's very likely that the swinging door through which Baker saw him through the glass would still have been swinging. 

  
Numerous people have said that if Oswald had come down from the 6th floor using the stairs that Baker was on, that Baker would have heard him. And those numerous people are right. Oswald did NOT come down the stairs from the sixth floor. He went up the stairs from the first floor, and those stairs were in the opposite corner of the building, the southeast corner, next to the doorway. So, Oswald left the doorway, went up the one flight of stairs, and then walked across the second floor to reach the lunch room a little ahead of Baker.  That's what happened, and that's how Baker came to see what he saw.

But, my point, and I do have one, is that the 2nd floor lunch room is NOT an option for Oswald at 12:30. There is NO CHANCE that he was there. And since he said he ate lunch in the 1st floor lunch room (even describing what he ate: a cheese sandwich and an apple) and citing Jarman and Norman as having been around at the time, we know that it had to be early in the lunch break. And you can't have Oswald going back there at 12:30 either. OCCAM WILL SLIT YOUR THROAT WITH HIS RAZOR IF YOU TRY TO SAY IT, AND I CAN'T HOLD THAT FRIAR BACK. 

So, my point, finally, is that THERE IS NO PLACE BUT THE DOORWAY THAT OSWALD COULD HAVE BEEN AT 12:30. Do you hear me, Larry Schnapf? I'm talking to you. Do you hear me William Davis? I'm talking to you too. 

That Lee Harvey Oswald was standing in the doorway of the Texas Book Depository during the shooting of JFK is proven not only by the photographic evidence, which is conclusive. but by the circumstantial evidence, which is also conclusive.

STOP THE LIES! OSWALD OUTSIDE!
