Could be mistaken. But the magic bullet could do exactly what it the WC claims it did. Bullets bounce around inside people all the time. |
Bouncing around could explain how a bullet could be fired from above Kennedy, enter his back below the shoulder blade, and then exit at the bottom of his neck. The trajectory is UP from between the two points, not down or flat, assuming that Kennedy was sitting upright, looking to the right and waving at the time he was hit as the Zapruder film suggests.
But there is no way that a bullet flying up could have hit Connally - that is, unless Kennedy were bending over at the time. He did bend over in the Zapruder film, but after the first shot. If there was such a first shot that missed Kennedy, this might have been the bullet that hit the bystander.
There is still another possibility. The bullet hit Kennedy from the front and travelled down to exit from the back. This would be very consistent with a shooter on top of the overpass. The surgeons who tried to save Kennedy said the hole in his throat was a clean, small hole typical of an entry wound. They widened it to form a tracheotomy.

TaKe a physics class sometime Ned and learn a few things about momentum and angles of incidence. Bones are round and hard, which means that it is very difficult to predict which way a bullet will bounce off of a bone. It can come straight back the way it came, among many other possibilities. None of the evidence I have seen in defense of the single gunman theory fails the plausibility test. Bullets can do some crazy things. They can penetrate several people. Bullets fired from Mausers were found to penetrate an average of 7 bodies, and one penetrated 13 bodies during tests at one of the German conentration camps during WW2, and yes they used live people for the tests. They can ricochet in wildly different directions, and most rifle bullets are destroyed by impact (for forensic purposes) against any sort of hard surface like a roadway or a building.
Was there a conspiracy to kill the POTUS? Possibly, but it would have to be a very small conspiracy to have survived all of this time. Someone would have already talked by now if this was something that was done by the government or the mob IMO. So I tend to think that Oswald acting alone is the most likely, with a small conspiracy at less than a 30% chance, and a large conspiracy (like the one where LBJ is ordering guys in the CIA to do the deed, complete with bureacratic paper trails) at almost 0% probability.
