I just have a few questions. Most can be answered with a simply yes or no.

1. Wouldn't that front yard be too far for the shells from an automatic to 
   be ejected?

2. Didn't she say she saw the man "unloading a gun" and then "emptying his 
   gun"?

3. Didn't you claim she was part of the coverup on 11/22/63?

4. Shouldn't she have found the shells much closer to the police car if an 
   automatic was used?

5. Did any known witness you can name (and produce and quote) say an 
   automatic was used?

6. Aren't the only references to an automatic from two hearsay police 
   radio calls?

7. Didn't numerous other witnesses say the gunman was fiddling with his 
   weapon, trying to unload or reload it?

8. Aren't the shells in evidence from a revolver, not an automatic?

9. Wasn't Oswald arrested in the theatre after slugging a cop and 
   attempting to pull his revolver on that cop?

10. Aren't the shells in evidence traceable to Oswald's revolver to the 
    exclusion of all other weapons in the world?

11. Wasn't Oswald arrested with the same two brands of bullets as the 
    found shells?

12. Didn't Oswald's revolver contain the same two brands of bullets as the 
    found shell?

13. Didn't numerous witnesses identify Oswald as the gunman in police 
    lineups that evening and the next day?

14. Wouldn't that much evidence be enough to convict anyone who wasn't 
    named Oswald?

15. Isn't it evident by now you don't have a case for Oswald's innocence?
