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

Jim Fetzer, the claims of Bob Livingston do not amount to evidence. That was just him flexing his imagination. No one but you takes his claims seriously.  And you, of all people, should know that it does not rise to the level of bankable knowledge. And it's not about explaining just the throat wound; it's about explaining Kennedy's whole patho-physiological presentation, which neither a bullet nor a piece of glass can do. 

That you can hold fast to a casual conversation with someone from 1993 and consider it unassailable in 2023 is incredible. Imagine if it happened in medical research that someone posited a conversation with someone decades before as proof of something. You would be laughed at and considered insane.  

Since no bone was struck, there is no basis to conclude that a metal bullet fragmented. And you can't claim a bone fragmented because the only fracture found was a hairline fracture of the transverse process of a vertebra- I forget which one.  

Something is wrong with you that you keep saying that fragments were found, when they only exist in your imagination. And an appeal to authority is considered a logical fallacy, in case you don't know it. 

The fact is: we don't have definitive evidence about a hole in the windshield. There were two different locations cited by witnesses. And even the photographic evidence for it is conflicting. I have told you repeatedly that the hole in the windshield in the Altgens photo cannot possibly be real because it was taken when the limo was high on the hill, long before the throat shot happened. I know the Altgens photo shows JFK and Jackie reacting similar to how they did in Z-255, but it's only a crude semblance of it. 

In the Altgens photo, JFK's fist is too large, and Jackie has both hands on his forearm, which goes on forever like a vacuum wand.

In the Z-film, she had one hand on his forearm, and her other hand was on his upper arm. And between her two hands was his extremely flexed elbow. 

It is very different from what we see in the Altgens photo, which is nothing but a crude paint-job.  

And if you just look above at 255, you'll see that no one in his right mind would take such a shot: having to hit a tiny spot at the bottom of his throat, while shooting through glass, and at a great distance. There are limitations to everything, Jim, including marksmanship, and nobody would take such a shot.  

The fatal head shot involved the use of a frangible (explosive) bullet. That's the bullet that fragmented, as it was designed to do. So, with a bullet exploding inside Kennedy's head, it could go in any direction. 

Your attempt to connect Kennedy's later brain damage to the throat shot is completely unfounded, unwarranted, and forensically unsound. 

And nobody agrees with you, Jim. Nobody but you claims that some of Kennedy's brain damage came from the throat shot.

I am posting this on my blog, Jim. I've had it with your stubbornness. It's all about you not wanting to revise your books and videos. Well, they are wrong, and that's tough.
