    I never said anything about America. But speaking of America, how many major countries has it occupied for years-on-end or annexed since WWI?

     

    Russia is still not the USSR - they are ( were ) 2 different entities .

    John Foster Dulles and Alan Dulles came from a Christian background, and they felt, you know, what they had to say was good enough for the rest of the world.

    Ever heard of missionaries ? Empire ? White mans burden ? Thats what its referring to

    Thus, I was surprised to find that one pro-conspiracy book after another described JFK as a liberal and included varying doses of liberal politics (especially on the Vietnam War, the Cold War, and disarmament).

    You'd rather America was still in Vietnam ? Or that they had won instead of getting beaten ? You'd rather America pissed away $ trillions on wars and invasions instead of having a proper publically funded healthcare system ? 

    As a Brit i have to tell you that America is laughed at for how backward it is 

  5. Someone needs to go there with a drone and take photos / footage of potential sniper sites - from just outside the windows of the Daltex and the buildings behind it - pointing down the street towards where the shots hit to determine if there were shooters in those locations . Amazed no one seems to have done this

    I think that 19 members voted No & No.

    I thort that some might vote Yes & Yes. Or at least Yes & No.

     

    1. Vince Palamara –---- obscene dumb theory.

    2. Pat Speer –----------- Hickey would have to be standing at Z313, not seen in Bronson.

    3. Micah Mileto -------- its stuff like this that makes me seriously worry that one day…..

    4. Larry Hancock ------- a truly bogus shooting scenario -- needs to be buried.

    5. Lawrence Schnapf -– stupid – needs to be buried.

    6. Ken Davies ------------ fantasy – no basis in fact – no evidence supports it.

    7. Michael Davidson --- a shot or shots came from Daltex.

    8. Jeremy Bojczuk ------ ridiculous nonsense.

    9. Joseph McBride ------ preposterous – a distraction.

    10. Mark Knight ----------- no insider has ever come forward.

    11. Denny Zartman ------- the Smoking Gun doc is naturally satisfying to lots of folks.

    12. Tom Gram --------------  complete waste of time – should be allowed to die.

    13. David Von Pein -------- absurd – the theory is bogus.

    14. Chris Davidson -------- shows giff of Bronson showing Hickey seated.

    15. Ty Carpenter ----------- Hickey theory is trash.

    16. Pete Mellor ------------- just to get a reaction – the book Moral Error should be avoided.

    17. Gerry Down ------------- did not vote – commented re Hickey's high seating pozzy.

    18. Ron Bulman -------------- this thread was a Mortal Error.

    19. Karl Hilliard --------------- a strange poll – go away.

     

    The critical things is the needed height of the AR15 above the windshield, & the needed standing to give that height.

    The height is easy, the AR15 merely had to be 1" or 2" above the windshield.

    But, to achieve that 1" or 2", Hickey would need to raise the AR15 up to his chin (briefly)(see my drawing above). Here he does not need to be standing. So, its possible, but is it probable? Would Hickey have raised the AR15 to chin level, while swinging around to see behind, while still seated on the 2 leather cases. The more i imagine it the more i am thinking that he could have. But, i have already said that the AR15 had to be near the centerline of Queen Mary. Hence he must have moved across to his right (where there is space to stand)(he has only 3" of space to stand if directly behind the jumpseat), hence i am thinking that he moved across, & was trying to stand up. 

    Or, he would need to stand or partly stand (briefly)(after moving across to his right), in which case the AR15 would need to be at say chest level (see my drawing). Does Bronson show Hickey partly standing, ie say halfway tween sitting & fully standing? We will see.

    And, i can play my nose-dive card. If Queen Mary (over 4 tons with the 9 guys on board) had a savage nose-dive when braking, then the 1" or 2" reduces to i dont know what. If the windshield sinks from its 60" to say 59" then the AR15 might need to be a little below Hickey's chin level rather than being at chin level. Does anyone here know of typical numbers for nose-dives?

    7. Erm no , i enquired whether it might be possible that perhaps one shot came from one of the buildings directly behind the Daltex . I never gave an opinion on Hickey , though having read the book i did initially think it possible apart from the obvious fact that no bystander seemed to see it happen . If someone shoots a gun in front of you i think you would tend to remenber it . 
    Be nice to track that trajectory back from Hickey though to the buildings behind the Daltex and see if they line up
