Wow I'm really sorry if i am wrong about Tippit being a good shot. But i just listened to Mr McBrides interview about his new book on Black Op radio yesterday and Im almost sure he stated that when he interviewed Tippits father he specifically said that his son was an excellent shot.
But i make no claims about being infallible. Maybe I didn't understand the interview properly. My sincere apologies if i am wrong.

I just rechecked the the 8/8/2013 interview with Mr. McBride over at Black Op Radio and at approximately the 56:50 mark he does say that Tippits father said his son was a "great" shot.
I make no other claims about Badge man or Tippit being one of the shooters.
Steve, I don't think Jan was questioning the accuracy of your memory so much as the evidence adduced in the book to support his claim. I have still to read this book. I'm sure it contains a lot of interesting and valuable information. As Dawn said, an author is rarely correct about even 75% of the assertions made. In this case, it is impossible to have that level of certainty.
Steve, I'm certain that you took from the interview exactly what the author wanted you to take. As a result, and through no fault of your own, you tacitly endorsed an indefensible and even ludicrous position uninformed by sophisticated deep political analysis.
Again, you bear no responsibility in this matter -- which I hope you will appreciate and utilize as a valuable learning experience.
Stay with us.
