If this were actually true - believers wouldn't be afraid of debate on this issue.

I challenge any and all believers to state just what refutes the explanation that there were multiple shooters...

An excellent post from David Emmerling I must say.

Yep... in contained no facts, no citation, no evidence, and a provably wrong argument. What's to dislike about it from a believer?

You've never been able to establish the SBT as even a decent theory, since it fails to explain the most basic of facts.

You'll run from it now as well.

I still can't find even a single believer to address Connally's wrist wound - I'm certainly not going to find any believer able to demonstrate transit... an absolute BASIC requirement of the SBT.

David provides a fine summary

"For instance, I accept the "Single Bullet Theory" as a FACT because it conforms quite nicely with all aspects of the Baloney Test. Alternate theories that account for all of Kennedy's and Connally's wounds fail miserably in many categories.

You're lying again, Patrick - and the FACT that you're lying can be easily demonstrated - you will refuse to defend that statement.

Here's an "alternate theory" that is SUPPORTED BY THE EVIDENCE - and that you'll not refute. There were multiple shooters... there were more than three shots.

Yep... there is. Bullets caused those wounds. Multiple bullets... from different directions...

PROVABLY false. There cannot be numerous CORRECT explanations - but it's downright silly to argue that there cannot be numerous explanations... indeed believers cannot even settle on ONE version of the SBT, so there ARE "numerous explanations" for the SBT - thus proving your assertion wrong.

So tell us Patrick, would you like to correct your statement - and tell the truth this time?

You can quote another dozen believers saying the same thing - it still isn't true.

Nope.

The most obvious way that it happened - AND THAT MATCHES THE KNOWN FACTS (such as the entry wound on JFK's throat, the wound through Connally's wrist, the eyewitness testimony, the lack of any bullet transit) - is simple, multiple assassins shooting from different locations.

Cowardice. Most believers are deathly afraid of posting in a forum that is controlled by a critic. Particularly a knowledgeable critic. The evidence simply isn't on your side, so lying is your one major tactic. The other major tactic, ad hominem, isn't allowed here. So you're left with practically nothing. The one forum that has the most believers is probably John McAdams' - and he doesn't allow anyone to point out that someone is lying. He also deletes posts that would never be deleted here - all in defense of WC believers.
