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

I've said before that a huge swath was cut out of the Zapruder film. In it, it appears that the limo reaches the freeway sign almost immediately after passing the TSBD. JFK waves a couple times, and then he disappears behind the sign. But, it wasn't like that. There was a long hill there and still is. And the limo was moving very slowly down it. The distance between these "x's" marks what was cut out. 

Isn't that huge? It may have been 10 seconds or more. Now think about the implications of it. The Warren Commission assumed that the whole shooting spree lasted 6 seconds or less. But, that was based on the idea that JFK wasn't hit until he passed behind the freeway sign. Not true. He was hit high on the hill, just past the TSBD, and before the Croft photo was taken.  And there is irony involved because they had to limit themselves to three shots. That's because there were the three shells, ever so conveniently, found, in the Sniper's Nest, and also because if you start at the the freeway sign and then go right across from Zapruder for the fatal head shot, that that defined the Kill Zone, officially speaking, and Oswald couldn't have gotten more than 3 shots off in the span of time. But, the irony is that since JFK was hit much earlier and much higher on the hill, that Oswald would have been under no such time restraint. Of course, he wasn't even in the Sniper's Nest; he was in the doorway. So, it's a moot point but still ironic. 

But, I can guarantee you that if you went to Dealey Plaza, and you stood on Zapruder's pedestal, which you can do, and you shot a car slowly moving down Elm Street, which you can do, that it would take much longer to cover the distance than what we see in the Zapruder film.

And if someone held up a piece of cardboard on the sidewalk on Elm Street to serve as a proxy for the freeway sign, the result would be that the "limo" wouldn't get to the sign nearly as fast as it does in the Zapruder film. And that's because an absolutely huge swath of the film was cut out. I'm telling you that they had to cut out the part in which JFK was shot only in the back and rode down the hill that way. They had to cut it out because they were espousing the Single Bullet Theory.
