This is the frame where Bugliosi and Posner, etc indicate that the first shot was fired. Now, the first shot is the easiest in terms of distance and the fact that the shooter has time to aim. Their are several problems associated with this claim. First, at Frame 160, the Presidential limousine is just about underneath the 6th floor window. Anyone shooting from the sniper's nest would have had to lean out the window, with his rifle (By the way, Mr. Posner. You write this carpola book called, “Case Closed” and you have a graphic on Oswald's assumptive weapon. But, you don't call it a rifle – you call it a gun. I wonder where your editor was to try to save you from your ignorance. If any GI referred to his rifle as …show more content…
It is most appropriately used when something is obviously wrong, yet the conclusion ignores, manipulates or blatantly is too stupid to know otherwise. There was a great book written, which had “Outrage” in its title. This book referenced the O.J. Simpson not-guilty verdict and how everyone that dealt with it was inept and corrupt. My brother and I have the same view of what we have discovered in looking at JFK murder apologists who use information to blatantly distort the truth. Why this is, or was done is perplexing – but the facts are the facts. If the two of us, certainly amateurs can see this, it shows how the American public doesn't care or is just plain ignorant and it is easy to run a narrative over decades that uses wrong facts, charts – or, the most easy of all, plain “fuget abot …show more content…
This is shown in Bugliosi's book, “Reclaiming History”. You will see that there are 3 representations of the limo moving down Elm Street, with the Zapruder Frame Number indicated. One is marked frame # 160, Bugliosi's frame for a first shot. At this position, it seems that this would be about the right position for the first shot to have missed and a fragment of the bullet to have nicked James Tague's cheek. We must remember that Mr. Tague was standing on the north side of the triple overpass and can be seen in a photo. But, there is a problem with this representation and it is appalling. In order to see why we say this, we show the actual frame Z-160 in our following graphics. Look closely at this shot. You will see that the front of the car has just barely made it to the point where it would be adjacent to the depository. Any shot at the Presidents car at this point from the sixth floor of the depository couldn't hit the pavement and was way out of line in being in Mr. Tague's path. The box used to represent frame Z-160 would be behind the trees, just entering Elm street. A shooter would have to be positioned so that the muzzle of the rifle barrel would be sticking out the window at a 90 degree angle. There were people still lining the street at this point. If a shot missed, it was miraculous that it didn't hit or was noticed by anyone at this
