Does it strike any one else as incongruous that no one else, in all these years, has ever suggested that there were anywhere near that many shots fired?

I have no idea whether or not that is so, frogprince. (?) Have you spoken to every eyewitness from that day who had anything to say about how many shots were fired? (that was a rhetorical question) (I know you have not.) (And that is my point.)

If one credible witness says that he heard 11 shots, then that is something definitely worth giving real consideration to, rather than simply brushing it off immediately because it doesn't happen to mesh with your favorite opinion on the subject.

Considering some of their their positions and wealth, I wonder if any of the extended Kennedy family know more than we know? If so, they have been keeping it very quiet for a very long time?

Well, if there was a high level plot, and a high level coverup, I would think they have very good reasons for keeping quiet.

And if there wasn't, they wouldn't have any reason to speak out.

So either way...they will likely remain silent.

11 shots? Eleven shots? Suddenly I have a lot less faith in that security man. Where are those 11 shots supposed to have gone? The very pavement would have been pattering with them. Unless 8 or 9 of those shots were fired into the air?

Curiouser and curiouser.

It was difficult enough to believe that Oswald could have got of three shots in the time, let alone eleven.

At the time it was dangerous to even think you knew anything about the shooting outside the official version. The large list of healthy young people who died after the assasination and may have had some connection to the events that bloody day, is dubious.

I'm not under the impression that I KNOW much of anything about it, Don. I wasn't there. All I have to go on is hearsay, and the Zapruder film. The official report is among the vast amounts of hearsay I have to go on, and it's just part of the hearsay.

I was most certainly not suggesting that Oswald had time to get off 11 shots, and I can't fathom how you could think that I would even entertain such an idea. ;-) I think that if there were a relatively larger number of shots than the official version (3) that it would indicate 2 or more marksmen, perhaps 3 of them, perhaps more than 3.

If it were an organized plot, they'd make sure. They wouldn't rely on one wingnut like Oswald to do the job from the book depository. They'd cover all the angles...get the job done...and then throw the one wingnut, the amateur, to the wolves.

If it was just Oswald on the other hand, then he was just really lucky....and John Kennedy was really unlucky.

Note that I say "if" throughout. I am not claiming any certain conclusions. I am not saying I know. I am simply raising questions, and I give as little a damn about your opinion of my doing that as you give about my opinion, period. So we're even, aren't we?

There were at least 4(gunmen). You might want to re-visit the recording on the motorcycle patrolman's bike radio. Agent Hill's account should be reliable...being as they were zipping the air around him...and yes, one did hit the pavement near the car, as crews were dispatched the next day to repair it.
