Another attempt by you to change the subject, my friend?
When it came to his case, yes, Garrison was most certainly a fraud.
Which is why he lost that case...there was none.
Of course that won't keep conspiracy theorists from promoting certain things he said if it aligns with whatever their particular CT is.
What's your, old friend? Still on the CIA with coverup help from LBJ, the Secret Service, RFK, and the FBI?
