Quote:But shooting from such a low position, I think, would cause the bullet to travel through the windshield.  Elm Street slopes downward, but not that steeply.  At least from my recollection.   

 

But the limo was not travelling against the curb. It was travelling in the middle of the street with a curve in the road so a storm drain shot would have been from the right corner of the limo and to the side of Connelly.

 

Also, the doctors at Parkland Hospital all said the kill shot came from the front, but the Navy doctors were instructed, by admittance of them, said the shot came from the rear (implicating Oswald).

 

Also, most people don't know this but Oswald was "tested" by his handlers to fire a shot at General Edwin Walker to determine if he had the backbone to do the shot at Kennedy. Oswald was  dropped off at the end of the road to Walker's house where Oswald crawled down a drainage ditch and waited for Walker to appear in a window. Oswald fired a shot and missed. Perhaps that was the instruction. He passed the test.

 

It's my belief Oswald was told Kennedy was not adhering to safety concerns  and was told to fire a warning shot at the limo so the president would travel with a bubble on the car. Remember Oswald was a small man with big ideals wanting to be a big shot. This is the shot which missed and hit the bridge abuttment which splintered and hit James Tague in the cheek. Then the volley of shots rang out, dozens of witnesses claimed there were about 6 shots, and Oswald freaked. He knew something had been planned which he was not a part of but was probably the patsy. Then he scrambled to the break room, sat down , and contemplated what had happened.

 

Why would he go to a movie theatre? He was likely told to meet his handler there after his "warning" shot for further instructions or to be whisked away. Why would Dallas Police converge on a movie theatre after the leader of the free world was assassinated to find a guy who entered without buying a ticket? It must be the most monumentally greatest stroke of police work in history and it was done in less than 2 hours.
