Anyone making that claim would merely be quoted, then the citation to the FBI testing of CE-139 showing the actual cycling time - then, and only then, may the offending poster be labeled a liar.

That is not true. That is a lie. 

The known evidence does not rule out 1.6 seconds. People have done it. 

It has NEVER been done. Tony will be completely unable to cite any such demonstration of CE-139 cycling that fast.

Tony is a cowardly liar...

Quite despicable of him to label me a liar when I'm telling the truth, and HE'S lying...

I challenge him to tell the truth.

It is possible to cycle the Carcano and strike targets at 200 yards 7 times in 7 seconds. However this has been done by an Olympic standard marksman using a fully serviced weapon. 

It is NOT POSSIBLE to fire CE-139 that fast... you know it, I know it... You're quite desperately lying here, aren't you Patrick?

Of course... I SCHOOLED YOU on this issue before.

You're a liar, Patrick.

If the rifle could have been cycled that fast - THEN EXPLAIN WHY THE FBI WAS UNABLE TO DO SO.

It was in their interests to have the rifle fire as quickly as they could - so they could explain the "delayed reaction" of Connally in a more credible way.

Another PROVABLE lie. Never been done with CE-139... and YOU KNOW THIS!!!

Cornwell fired the rifle twice in 1.2 seconds, and I fired it twice within 1.5 seconds. In both cases the second shot missed, but was close to the silhouette. In fact, my second shot only missed the silhouette by approximately 2". [4]

YET ANOTHER PROVABLE LIE.

You KNOW FOR A FACT that this has never been done on CE-139.

Why do you keep lying, Patrick? Why do you think lies will get past a knowledgeable critic?

The issue isn't the time to fire three shots, but the time to fire two so closely together as witnesses testified to.

I'm well aware that critics have in the past argued the total time of the firing, but I never have. The real issue is the impossible close spacing of two of those shots.

 

(02-08-2017, 03:34 PM)Patrick C Wrote:  It is my belief that the evidence strongly supports that Oswald fired two shots which struck circa Z221/2 and Z312/3 which were around 5.2 seconds apart and that there was NO intersecting shot between those two. If there was a missed shot it was fired earlier just after the turn giving an approx 8 second time frame for a 3 shot scenario.

It is possible that there were indeed only two shots, but we cannot know.

Understanding the shooting and determining that based on the eye and ear witness testimony there were most likely only two or three shots and indeed that ALL the shots were fired from the same place....one invariably must conclude that there was highly probably only one shooter.

The shooter was seen in the SE 6th floor window at the time that the shots sounded.

It is possible some one fired Oswald's weapon. It is possible some one fired a shot that missed from another location high and to the rear, but these are simply remote possibilities that are merely statistically valid as options.

The only areas of concern for the lone gunman supporters are the similarity of three individuals ref the Chicago and Tampa plots, the Odio incident and Mexico City. There are questions around the Camp ST address and the FPFCC in New Orleans. Other than that, very little.

All your beliefs simply aren't supported by the evidence...

If they were, you'd not be required to lie so consistently.

You've been schooled REPEATEDLY on the speed of firing that CE-139 was capable of - YET YOU CONTINUE TO KEEP RIGHT ON LYING ABOUT IT!

Why is that, Patrick?

You're lying again, Patrick. Most importantly, YOU KNOW YOU'RE LYING.

I'm amused that you apparently don't care if your lies are labeled thus, and YOU are labeled a liar, because you continue to post lies that you KNOW that I'll point out.

Why is that, Patrick?

I do not care what you call me Ben as I do not value your opinions on the JFK assassination. I have posted in the past that your bog standard response to almost all posts is to call the poster a coward or a liar - is tedious and juvenile and indicative of your standard of education and ability to debate - the latter is virtually nil. 

The so called issue over how fast the rifle could be fired is frankly irrelevant. There were only two shots that stuck Kennedy and they did so a full 5+ seconds apart. The first of those shots passed through Connally - as it had to unless it struck the car - but that did not happen.
