Mr. Hanson,
On the alt.assassination.jfk site, you describe Lee Harvey Oswald as a "murderer."
( www.groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!searchin/alt.assassination.jfk/marcus$20hanson/alt.assassination.jfk/2Wcl2POFL98/o-SJdGi4UG0J )
Further, and on the same page, you write the following:
I ... have slowly moved over the past 24 years from dedicated CT-er to almost-convinced LN-er.
That's right - ALMOST convinced.
If Oswald had gone to trial and I had been a juror,a good defence attorney MIGHT have caused "reasonable doubt". If he did,I would be obliged to say "Not Guilty".
Does that mean I believe that Oswald was innocent?
No : it means only that I respect the high standard of proof required by the law.
If the standard of proof at law was less exacting,as in a civil matter ,"on the balance of probabilities", I'd surely vote "Guilty".
Anyone with reasonable access to the legitimate evidence in this case who does not conclude that JFK was killed by conspirators -- and that Lee Harvey Oswald did not murder JFK or J.D. Tippit -- is cognitively impaired and/or complicit in the crime.
Permit me to save you a bit of time: The Lone Nut lie will not be debated or otherwise entertained on Deep Politics Forum.
Anything else before you scurry back to your safe haven and "debate" Ralph Cinque?

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
