In reply to the discussion: Dallas Morning News: Gary Mack and the evolution of a JFK conspiracy theorist [View all]AnotherMcIntosh
(11,064 posts)58. Re-read what was posted at #51, not your interpretation of the story referred to in the OP.
According to the OP, Gary Mack "now believes Oswald was the only gunman that day."
1. If true, where is that stated in the story found with the link?
1. If true, where is that stated in the story found with the link?
You can't because it is not stated. It is based upon your interpretation rather than actual words in which Mack purportedly "now believes Oswald was the only gunman that day."?
2. How does that compare with Gary Mack's statement in the story:
Im personally convinced theres more than just Oswald involved, Mack said, but I cant prove it and neither can anyone else.
Your answer is one plausible answer. But it is a display of arrogance to believe that is the only interpretation, especially when Mack has had more than one theory. The fact that someone has come up with a theory that there was electronic cross-talk doesn't negate each and every theory that Mack has or has had.
Your unjustified comment towards me is another display of arrogance. There is no factual support for you or anyone else to claim to believe I support each and every one of Gary Mack's various theories, or any of them. The article in the Dallas Morning News can be interpreted in another way. Earlier, as can be seen from the actual words used in the story, "Mack wrote an article saying the assassination might have been recorded." Now, he is apparently open minded enough to consider the cross-talk theory and the fact that the blips that were identified on audio tape other than the original might not have been shots. He originally thought that the blips were recorded shots. Now, he's not so sure. But apparently you are.
3. Even if the statement in the OP were true, so what?
Apparently, you are on a quest to prove how smart you are. Your posting of a non-story doesn't make it so. Your interpretation of what was said in the story and your quibbling over what the words mean in the story is like arguing over how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.
Who cares?
You do? So what?
If you can answer the "So what?" question, maybe you can get someone else to care as well.

OK, fine! All those folks are bugging up there to catch them a second shooter.

Yes, I agree that a second shooter up on the grassy knoll is silly and hilarious

You can't answer because there is no answer that doesn't expose you to ridicule.

It is enough that you misrepresent what I've said. You've changed the subject.
