Dr. Kevin Barrett asked me to respond to a patron of his who bashed the Altgens Doorman assertion and then endorsed the Prayer Man idea. Here is my response:

It is difficult to talk about this without imagery because we are talking about a photograph and what it shows. But, what it shows is the Man in the Doorway with the face, the features, the expression, and even the stance of Lee Harvey Oswald. And then, as a separate and distinct element, it shows that he is wearing the clothes of Lee Harvey Oswald. It is patently absurd to claim that Oswald and Lovelady not only looked a lot alike, but dressed the same. 

The claim that Oswald was Prayer Man is preposterous. It's beyond preposterous. it is based on total fabrication; which is to say, based on nothing. So, who was Prayer Man? He was nobody. There was no Prayer Man. The whole clip is completely bogus. It's supposed to be from the Darnell film, but the Darnell film can be viewed on Youtube, and if you go view it, you'll see that the Prayer Man clip isn't in it. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCHTdTF7YbE&t=114s

So, since the Prayer Man clip is not in the Darnell film, why believe it is from the Darnell film? 

Second, the Prayer Man clip was supposed to be filmed just 10 seconds after the last shot, which was the fatal head shot, but the people in the Prayer Man clip are unrecognizable. All of the known, proven occupants of the doorway are gone, and all these strangers are there. Who are they? Who knows? They aren't real.   

The Prayer Man hypothesis was put forward to distract from and to ridicule the Altgens Doorman hypothesis, which has been proven beyond the slightest shadow of a doubt. It's as certain that it was Oswald in the doorway as it was Christ on the Cross. The likeness of the man and the clothing are too great for it not to be him. 

Same man. Same clothes. Doorman can't not be him, Oswald. 

In the Z film, JFK was out of his mind

It is truly amazing what we see in the Z film: JFK smiling and waving as he passes behind the sign and then emerging in a state of panic and his mind completely gone. And the indisputable thing is that he did NOT smile and wave before reaching the sign. You only have to look at the Croft, Betzner, and Willis photos to see that he stopped waving long before he reached the sign. That part of his descent of the hill was cut out of the Zapruder film. 

The Willis photo is, reportedly, the last image of JFK before he got shot, and taken a split second before he got shot. Does he appear to be waving? And notice that Jackie had stopped working her side of the street. She's facing him. Why is she doing that and ignoring her responsibility? There is no indication that he is waving there. And note that his whole image is very muddled. It lacks photographic detail and precision. It could very well be paint. And note that we're seeing the freeway sign there. We can see just the bottom of it at the top right. 

But, my interest now is on Kennedy's mental state in Z225 and beyond, and the fact is that he was gone mentally. He could not grasp what was going on, what had happened to him, and he could not respond to it. 

Here's the before shot Z189. It's the last we see of Kennedy before he disappears behind the sign. Notice that he's turned to the crowd and waving. He is doing his job, and he is totally fine mentally. That really is him, and it really did happen. What's fake in this is the sign. This was much higher on the hill, far from the sign. The sign that we are seeing in this image is fake. It's not even at the right angle. The sign was at 90 degrees to the street, while this sign is facing the street. The line of the limo, which is a stand-in for the the road, should be at 90 degrees to the sign. Is it? Does that look like 90 degrees to you?  

Here's the real sign:

That's what a 90 degree angle looks like. 

They used their fake sign like a magician's curtain. Before: Kennedy was OK: and After: he was a different man, not just physically, but mentally. 

So, this is him after, with his arms in spasm. He cannot release the contractions. Jackie is trying, in vain, to get him to relax the arm that she is holding, but she can't do it. He is as stiff as a board. 

But, at this point, he has suffered no brain damage. There is no reason why his mind should not have been sharp. And remember who he was: the hero of the PT 109 attack, where he was entirely in capacity and in focus throughout the crisis of survival. But, as you watch the Z film, you can see that he does not understand what is going on, and he is totally incapable of generating any response to it or taking any evasive action. Is he aware that he has been shot? He had to know that something was terribly wrong, but I doubt it rose to the level of a coherent thought.  If he was aware, and if he could think straight, he'd have gotten down, and gotten his wife down, and covered her.  Note that he didn't speak. It's been claimed that he couldn't speak because he was shot in the throat. Was his voice box damaged? The Secret Service agents at the autopsy would not allow Dr. Hume to dissect Kennedy's neck. So, we don't know about it. But, even if it was damaged, he would try to talk, if his mind was intact. He would have said things like "Get down" and "Floor it." And if he couldn't talk, he would have gestured it. But, JFK never spoke, or tried to speak; nor did he do anything. 

Rapidly, his muscle rigidity increased. Such spasticity is related to upper motor neuron lesions, but Kennedy didn't have any. His central nervous system was intact. 

So, his physical trauma to this point can't account for that muscle binding. But, it's his mental torpidity, that is, his complete and total mental dysfunctionality and helplessness that screams at us that something happened to him: something that physical trauma cannot explain. 

And from that point on, he was like the proverbial pillar of salt. Look how little movement he made up until the final frame before the fatal head shot.

Compare those two images of him. He was zombified. He was frozen. He was frozen physically and frozen mentally. 

How do you account for that? And why has nobody but me raised it as an issue? And I'm not saying it to brag or credit myself. I'm saying it in disgust, that so many people could be so blind. KENNEDY WAS COMPLETELY GONE MENTALLY, DESPITE HAVING SUFFERED NO BRAIN DAMAGE. How do you account for that? 

Well, it's a default situation. If he suffered no brain damage, and yet his brain was effectively gone, what took it out? It had to be a chemical. He must have been hit early-on with a special missile that contained a chemical agent or agents that could cause these effects.  And I mean the spasmodic paralysis and the mental collapse. 

That missile was a frozen flechette that contained shellfish toxin that hit him high on the hill before the Croft photo was taken, when he was still adjacent to the TSBD- a long way from the Kill Zone. It was a preparatory shot, meant to take the PT 109 out of him, before the real attack began. 

We are talking about a visible phenomenon that has to be explained, and there is no other explanation but this. This is checkmate. This is what happened. JFK was shot with the "heart attack gun."

 

How Jack Ruby was framed

Someone asked Pat Shannan about this, and he asked me to respond. We can rephrase the question as: "How did they get Jack Ruby to the DPD garage on Sunday morning?"

It started with the Karen Carlin ruse. They got her to call him, saying that she needed money, $25, for rent and groceries. He asked her, "Can't you wait until Monday?" She was scheduled to work as an exotic dancer on Monday at the Carousel Club. She said no, that she couldn't wait. 

Karen Carlin was effectively put in the witness protection program afterwards. They moved her to Michigan, where she started over under a new name. I don't know if she ever worked again or if they just supported her. But, they tricked Penn Jones into believing that she had died. Someone caught up with her many years later, but I don't remember who he was. She was very reluctant to talk. 

So, by getting Ruby to Western Union, that put him within a block of the Main Street ramp. So, it was part of one block, then crossing the street at Harwood, and then down the next block to the Main Street ramp. 

So, how did they get him to go that short distance from Western Union to the Main Street ramp? First, the people milling around that ramp were there for him and no other reason. It was an incoming ramp, and nobody was expected to arrive. So, they had no reason to be there except to attract Ruby. 

Ruby wrote a narrative of what happened that morning, but his words were edited by a Hollywood screenwriter, William Read Woodfield. I have a copy of it. It used to be on the internet, although I can't find it any longer. But no worries: I downloaded it. 

Woodfield added a bunch of parenthetical remarks and also quite a few subtitles. For instance, Ruby said that he arose early on Sunday morning, and Woodfield added the subtitle, "About 9:30 AM." 

Rising at 9:30 isn't early on any day of the week, including Sunday.

So, Ruby didn't say he got up at 9:30; that was Woodfield. Ruby just said he got up early. Then, he said he took his diet pills, which were amphetamines. then, he said he had doubled his dosage 4 or 5 days before. But why? And if you were writing that, wouldn't you say why? Wouldn't anybody? The purpose of writing is to be coherent, right? Then, he said that that morning he also took some other tablets. But, what other tablets? Who writes this way? Nobody. I have to think that Woodfield edited out the incriminating stuff. He whitewashed what Ruby said. The most likely thing is that somebody put Ruby up to taking the other tablets. But who? A good candidate is his roommate George Senator, who was very likely his handler. 

At the time of his arrest, Ruby was high as a kite. A reporter said that he was muttering incoherently. But, that was only said once.  You can see that his eyes were glassy and dilated- the effect of the drugs. Look at that blank stare. Compare his eyes to the focused eyes of the others. 

One of the drugs they gave him was probably scopolamine, the zombie drug. It takes away your free will. You do whatever you are told. That's why the Nazis used it as a truth serum. Allen Dulles learned about it from them. With Ruby high on scopolamine, all they had to do was have someone suggest that he walk over to the ramp to see what was going on. And then when he got to the ramp, all that was needed was for someone to nudge him to go down. 

And that was exactly what happened. It was about an hour before the televised spectacle. In his Warren Commission testimony, Ruby said that he wired the money at 10:15. Ruby described the shooting by saying that he must have taken the gun out of his pocket and take a few steps forward. But, that expression "must have" is used to surmise something that you don't know. The fact is that Ruby had no memory of shooting Oswald. It was assumed that he blanked out about it, but the truth was much simpler: he had no memory of it because it's impossible to have a memory of something that didn't happen. 

Ruby said that he didn't see anyone he knew in the basement. But, Fritz was there, and we know he knew who Fritz was. And he knew many of the officers and detectives. So, why didn't he recognize anyone? Then, Ruby said that Oswald came out with a smirky, vicious, defiant, cursing look on his face. Do you confirm that description of Oswald when he came out in the footage? I don't. Ruby said that there was no one standing by him. But, the Garage Shooter was right in the cluster, was he not? Ruby said, "I had no thought of doing any violence to anyone when I went down there. I didn't even think about it." He said absolutely nothing about firing the gun at Oswald. Again, how could he remember something that didn't happen? But, he did remember the melee'; not the one we are familiar with; but his. He recalled saying this to police as they were wailing on him: "You don't have to beat my brains out. I'm Jack Ruby. What are you guys jumping me for? I'm Jack Ruby. I'm not someone who is wanted."

That's how he remembered it in his narrative. But, if he had just shot Oswald, didn't he know that police frown on that kind of thing? The reason he didn't know what he had done is because he hadn't done anything. He went on:

"They dragged me to the elevator. They took me upstairs. That is where they told me I shot Oswald. That was the first time I realized it. My response was, "My God! My God!"

So, what I have been telling you is true: that Ruby's entire basis for believing that he shot Oswald was just because Dallas Police told him that he did it. But, in reality, they lured him to the garage; they attacked him and dragged him upstairs, where they told him that he did it. This was about an hour before the televised spectacle. Without a doubt, no shot went off at that time, not even a blank. They had isolated the area, but there were still a lot of people in the building, and a shot would surely have been heard. Once they had Ruby safely tucked away up on the 5th floor, stripped of his clothes, they began filling the basement again with cameramen and reporters. Then, they put on the dog and pony show for television audiences, and then, long after James Bookhout was back in his own identity, they displayed Ruby on the 3rd floor of the PD being led to the Homocide bureau to be questioned by Fritz. And that is when they slipped him into the story in a perfect bait and switch.

 You have been manipulated like a Pavlovian dog into believing that Ruby shot Oswald. He didn't! This is perhaps the greatest psy-op of all time. They hookwinked the entire world until recently, just 9 years ago. They desperately needed Oswald dead. Killing him was no problem. That was easy. They could do that. But, they needed a poor patsy to frame and blame, and that was Ruby. Jack Ruby was the Sirhan Sirhan who preceded Sirhan Sirhan. And you realize that to this day, poor Sirhan still thinks he shot and killed Robert Kennedy, although like Ruby, he can't remember a thing about it. And like Ruby, he was high as a kite at the time. You see, it worked so well with Ruby, they just repeated it with Sirhan.  

 

 

 The Croft photo is a naked revelation of conspiracy

The Croft photo was taken high on the hill. If you look at the top right corner of the photo, you can see the TSBD, that orange building. So, this was long before Kennedy was first hit, according to official lore. But, was it? 

Start with Jackie. She has her head turned towards the crowd. She was supposed to be smiling and waving at them, but she is neither smiling nor waving. Her arm is down;  her face looks glum. Why, if all was well at this point? And, as a former chiropractor, I ask: why is her head turned so much? Adults don't have that much cervical rotation. Kids do, but not adults. Turn your own head to the left. How far does it go before it wants to stop? You don't get more than 45 degrees, do you? And if you're old, it could well be less than 45 degrees. Beyond that, it's strain. There, she seems to be rotated, what, about 80 degrees? It's too much, even for her in her 30s. and look at the size of her head, how huge it is compared to his. She was a little closer to the camera but not much. Here is a shot that is proportioned correctly.

 

That head of hers must have been pasted on there to cover up the fact that she was looking at him at the time. And why is her hair sticking out? Look how it angles. It wasn't doing that. It isn't natural. Nobody's hair does that. What would make it do that? There was a wave there, but not an acute angle. 

So, they poofed out her hair there because they needed more coverage- of him. He was reacting to being shot there. He had been shot in the back. So, maybe his mouth was open in shock. And notice that his eye is missing. There is just a line there. He probably had a startled look in his eyes that they couldn't let us see. 

The photo that followed is the Betzner photo, which shows nothing of the Kennedys because of the guy in the way. 

How hard would it have been for Betzner to step to his right to avoid that guy blocking his view? Not hard at all. It's very likely that that guy was added to keep us from seeing the Kennedys. So, let's move on to the next one, the Willis photo.

So, the red line is pointing to JFK. We can't trust anything about that image. What we're seeing of his head there could have been paint. What I want you to notice is that she is not working her side of the street; rather she is turned and looking in his direction. We are seeing the back of her head, and her head is turned to the right. So, my thesis is that she was doing that in the Croft photo too. So, she rode down the hill ignoring the crowd, not doing her job working the people on her side of the street; instead, she was turned and looking at him. Why? She said in her WC testimony that the first she knew something was wrong was when she turned and looked at Jack and saw that he had a quizzical look on his face. But wait: according to official lore, nothing was wrong until he was shot a fraction of a second before we see him at frame 225 in the Z film, panic-stricken and raising his hands to his throat, and no one would describe that as "quizzical." That's the word she used to describe his look: quizzical. 

Why don't we see any of this in the Zapruder film? Point to the part of the Zapruder film that corresponds to the span from Croft to Willis. You can't. It doesn't exist in the Zapruder film. They cut it out. 

At the top of the red span is when the Croft and Altgens photos were taken. Popular lore has it that Altgens was taken at Z255. Wrong. Terribly wrong. The Altgens photo was taken much earlier. But, that's for another day. At the bottom of the red span is when Kennedy got shot in the throat from the front. So, he rode down the steepest part of the hill reacting to being shot in the back and that alone. But, they couldn't show us that, not when they were trying to sell the idea of a single bullet. So, that entire area of the red span was cut out of the Zapruder film. And that's why the limo gets to the freeway sign so fast in the Zapruder film. He no sooner passes the TSBD and he's at the sign. It's because they took out so much. They wanted the story to be that he was smiling and waving; all was well, and then he passes behind the sign (which was like the magician's curtain) and then everything happened behind the sign, and when he emerges from behind the sign, he is a different man, physically and mentally.

It wasn't that way. He was already a different man before he reached the freeway sign. He was shot in the back long before that. 

Finally, for today: So, Kennedy was shot in the back high on the hill. The missile did not traverse him; in fact, it barely went into him. It stopped short; very short. But, how could a bullet do that? How could a bullet reach him at bullet speed, which was something like 2000 feet per second and then stop in an inch and a half? How could the bullet decelerate from 2000 feet per second to 0 feet per second over that infinitesimal distance? And if it was a bullet, what happened to it? That was no ordinary bullet. It was no bullet at all. It was a flechette made of ice that was pharmaceutically armed.   

 

Think about what Oswald's blood stain on the floor entailed.

 Oswald was, supposedly, placed on the floor. and presumably, on his back. Since his back was on the floor, how could blood go from his back to the floor? That is: why was there blood on his back? He was bleeding from only one place, and it was in front. His gunshot wound was only 5 inches from his sternum, and it was the only place from which blood could have been coming out. So, if blood was coming out there, how could it get on his back and then get transferred to the floor? Imagine how much bleeding would have involved for that to happen.  

And just a few seconds after he was removed from that spot on the floor, we can see him on the stretcher in the garage.

I don't know what we're supposed to be seeing there. Why does his hand look waxen, and what is that white underneath his hand?

What the hell is that supposed to be? My guess is that somebody decided to sell the idea that someone placed a white cloth over Oswald's wound, and then they placed his hand over the cloth, I guess, to hold it in place. Or, were they trying to suggest that his hand was placed directly over the wound, and then they put the cloth over his hand? Is that what it's supposed to be? Who the hell knows. But, the point is that there is no sign of any blood. And since that's the only place blood could have come from, how could the floor get  bloodied?  

It's all just storytelling. It's all made up. The official story of the Oswald shooting is just as preposterous as the official story of the JFK shooting. And if you think you're helping by pushing the story of Ruby being a Mafioso and killing Oswald to save his sister, you are doing the bidding of the very people you are trying to expose. They are conning you. They own you. If you don't know that Ruby was innocent, you don't know a damn thing about the Oswald shooting. 

 

The image directly above is a staged photo that was taken on another day, which means that that guy isn't Oswald, since Oswald was dead. And even at that point in time on 11/24/63, Oswald was effectively dead. He was as dead as Kennedy. Both of them were past the point of no return, with just a few agonal breaths left to take. Parkland doctors didn't even try to save Kennedy. He didn't get any blood transfusions. All they were trying to do for him was make him less uncomfortable. But, Oswald they did try to save. But, in reality, it was just as hopeless. Even though, they filled him up with blood and sewed up his broken blood vessels as best they could, it was too late. His heart was irreparably damaged, and no doubt other organs too. But, you notice that this guy playing Oswald just looks like he's asleep. Really, he was just pretending to be asleep. 

In the picture of James Lavelle, you notice that his jacket went from buttoned up to completely open. I realize he could have done that. But, L.C. Graves has no tie pin in the Johnston photo above, but he does have a tie pin in the staged photo below. Oops. 

Oswald's Midnight Press Conference was a one of a kind event in the history of law enforcement. It was a black swan event. Since when do police give defendants a press conference? They don't. 

So, why did Dallas Police do it? Officially, it was because the press were clamoring for more time with Oswald. You buy that? 

Of course you don't. So, let's get down to the real reason. 

Before first, note the implication of them doing it.  The implication was that they were aware that Oswald didn't know anything about the JFK assassination. If they thought he did, they never would have done it because he could have said what he knew to the world. And you know what they say about getting genies about into bottles. 

However, it was still very risky for them to do it. You realize that Dallas Police would not let Oswald speak to an attorney. If they did, they would have had to kill the attorney.  So, why let him speak to an attorney at the MPP? There were attorneys listening, weren't there?  

So why, if they wouldn't let Oswald speak to an attorney, individually, would they let him speak to a whole gamut of attorneys, the world over, at the MPP? 

It was very risky, so why did they take that risk? They must have had a powerful reason. The only thing that I can think of; the only thing that makes any sense to me at all, is that they intended to kill him at the MPP.

If you have never considered that before, don't react by being dismissive. Hear me out first- with an open mind. 

You know that Jack Ruby was at the DPD, and that he had his handgun. You know that there were cameras there. You know that a swarm of police were there. Therefore, it had all the elements of Sunday morning. So, if they were willing to kill him at the P.D. on Sunday morning, why not do it on Saturday morning? 

Of course, some reading this may still be clinging to the delusion that the killing of Oswald was instigated by Jack Ruby. It wasn't. The Karen Carlin request was used as a way to get him to Western Union, which was just a block away. The crowd gathered at the Main Street ramp had no reason to be there except to attract Ruby. It was an incoming ramp. Who could they have been waiting for to drive in? Nobody. They were there for Ruby, to nudge him down the ramp in his highly drugged state. The whole operation was planned and carried out by the Dallas Police; not Jack Ruby. He was a victim. And he got there before the televised spectacle. Once he got to the garage, the police jumped him. No shot went off, and he had no idea why they were doing it. And he said so: "What are you doing? You know me. I'm Jack Ruby; I'm not a criminal."  Dallas Police admitted that he said that when they jumped him, though it's apparent the Garage Shooter did not. But, why did Ruby say it? He said it because nothing happened prior to them jumping him. He had no idea what was going on. He found out when they told him up on the 5th floor, which is where he was during the televised spectacle. 

But, to those who still think Ruby did it, either because he was torn up about Kennedy or because the Mafia put him up it, why didn't he do it on Saturday morning? He had his gun. Ruby was asked that question, and he said he never had the thought to shoot Oswald. Not Friday night, not Sunday morning; never. Do you understand that his entire basis for believing that he did it was because Dallas Police told him that he did? 

But, let's get back to the Midnight Press Conference. It was highly risky for the Dallas Police to do it, and Oswald did do them a lot of damage, declaring his innocence, and informing the world that they were denying him a lawyer. What was the potential pay-off for taking that risk? It was to kill him. There is nothing else. 

Then, why didn't it happen? Apparently, they couldn't frame Ruby. He must not have been situated correctly for it. No doubt, it was supposed to happen right away, before Oswald said much of anything, but with each passing second, he was doing damage, defending himself and sounding lucid. So, they had to abort it.

So, where was Ruby during the MPP? There is this image of him, but it's fake. It is a still image added to a movie. His figure never moves. The camera scrolls right, and it's only when he is off camera that the action starts. 

And it's not even the right time. It's referred to as Oswald's Press Conference, but Oswald was not even there then. That was when Henry Wade was speaking. It was his press conference; not Oswald's.  

So, they faked an image of Ruby at Henry Wade's press conference and called it Ruby at Oswald's Press Conference.

Watch this video of it because you hear Wade talking; then he gets to saying Free Cuba Movement; then a voice corrects him saying Fair Play for Cuba, and then, right away it cuts to the still, pasted image of Ruby, as if to suggest that he was the one who corrected him. But, it's all so very fake; I mean screaming out loud fake.  

https://vimeo.com/303111425

Ruby never corrected Wade. Apparently, he wasn't even in the room. If he were in the room, they would not have had to fake an image of him in the room.  

Then, there is this alternate image of Ruby at Oswald's MPP. But, look how huge he looks. Look at his breadth compared to the men in front of him and next to him. What, was he a sumo wrestler? 

Then, there is another version that is just the opposite, where he looks small and thin, and also younger.

And they forgot all about his amputated left index finger. 

So, that settles it: Ruby was not at the Midnight Press Conference. The images are fake. And that is why they could not go through with killing Oswald there. 

Don't you see that it was the same situation? It was at the PD; Oswald was surrounded by cops; the press was gathered; cameras were flashing. But, they couldn't pull it off, so they concocted another press conference over the jail transfer. 

It goes to show that they did not have complete control. So, what would they have done on Sunday if Ruby just didn't make it to the garage? They got him to Western Union over Karen Carlin. That was a sure thing. They had him drugged with scopolamine to make him highly conducive to suggestion. But, we're talking about the vagaries of a person's mind. What if he just didn't do it? He had plans for the day. He was going to drop his dog Sheba off at the Carousel Club for someone to watch her there, and then he was going to his new apartment to check things out. So, what if he pivoted? What if he shrugged off the suggestion? It's not like they held a gun to his head. Could the Sunday morning shooting have gone wrong like the Friday night one did? You bet it could have. And they knew it. So, they must have had yet another plan, probably to kill him at the County Jail. One way or another, they were going to kill him. The most important thing wasn't where, but that it not fail. They were only going to get one attempt. If they tried to kill him, and it failed, they couldn't try again because nobody would believe that. At that point, everyone and his brother would say, "Ah, come on. How stupid do you think we are?"
