141. Wow, zappaman. You're so wise, you're repeating the same thing twice.

Oct 2013

You're still wrong, parsing words as you do to smear, but you're able to state it twice, certainly.

Show where Oswald killed JFK or anyone, zappaman. The evidence shows he didn't shoot anybody that day, which is what he stated while in police custody.

"I didn't shoot Pres. John F. Kennedy or Officer J. D. Tippit. . . . "

http://www.ratical.org/ratville/JFK/LHO.html

Why do you insist on making Oswald guilty, zappaman? And why do you insist on misstating what I wrote? Would that help your Tag Team?
