It's the official declaration that one dude did it all -- followed by the many independent attempts to duplicate that feat; all of which have failed.<br /><br />Could Mr. Hickey have contributed to the known shot count? Yes--but I wouldn't expect him to own to it (I certainly wouldn't; would you?). I would expect, if "one of our own" had been involved accidentally, a strong desire to suppress the truth, even on the part of those who believed (believe) that ONE dude could not have done what we all know was done that day in Dealey Plaza Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-38666273069728341702013-11-23T05:50:44.267-04:002013-11-23T05:50:44.267-04:00Howard Brennan (page 63, WCR) was a witness to a m...Howard Brennan (page 63, WCR) was a witness to a man firing a rifle toward the president's car out a window in the SE corner of the Texas Schoolbook Depository building. Warren commission exhibit 477 shows Brennan's own writing on a picture that shows the area from which he viewed the man and in which part of the bldg he saw the shooter. Brennan identified himself in the Zapruder firm, which corroborated his statements about where he had been standing. Amos Euins corroborates Brennan's account. Robert Jackson does also.<br /><br />I could go on, but it seems like this anniversary and this event brings out the burning desire to justly explain it. Some huge force must have caused this! But really, it was a guy with a rifle shooting from a building. And a lot of people witnessed it.<br /><br />Portland, OregonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-17741601299850770042013-11-22T13:45:54.669-04:002013-11-22T13:45:54.669-04:00The only person who would have known what happened...The only person who would have known what happened (if it happened) would be Hickey, when he checked how much ammo he had left in his gun and realized a shot had been fired. But even he would would most likely just second guess himself he would figure he must have left out a round when he loaded the gun. How did he not realize he fired a shot? It's possible with everything going on around him he thought someone else near him fired and vise versa to those around him, once everything calmed down they may not have brought it back up as they were all in shock about the president just being killed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-66153039116686668492013-11-22T10:44:43.948-04:002013-11-22T10:44:43.948-04:00This is an interesting suggestion, but when you sa...This is an interesting suggestion, but when you say "it is unique in its complete lack of a conspiracy", I will have to disagree. The conspiracy would be found in the cover-up after the shooting. I think that someone would have eventually ratted Hickey out, in reality.Steve Magruderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09688687457746384053noreply@blogger.com
