Drew Phipps Wrote:Drew, I am not discussing any theory and did not bring up the WC story, my question was why did HILL not hear the first shot and the second he interpreted as a 'firecracker' we know HILL was moving to the limo prior to shot number 3. So it is logical that HILL reacted to shot number two because we would expect HILL to react quickly. But even if one or the other, why did HILL miss the sound of one shot? Drew, HILL heard two shots, one prior to him moving to the limo the second was the cause of the fatal head wound. Where is the third shot?Bob Mady Wrote:This should be interesting; CLINT HILL heard the first 'firecracker' like sound but never heard the second rifle shot, why is that?
CLINT HILL: SSA REPORT "I was visually scanning these people when I heard a noise similar to a
firecracker. The sound came from my right rear and I immediately moved my head
in that direction. In so doing, my eyes had to cross the Presidential automobile
and I saw the President hunch forward and then slump to his left. I jumped from
the Follow-up car and ran toward the Presidential automobile. I heard a second
firecracker type noise but it had a different sound-- like the sound of shooting
a revolver into something hard. I saw the President slump more toward his
left."
HILL starts moving to the limo after z-300 and does not board the limo until after rifle shot 3, that would mean HILL most likely did not detect shot number 1, but did detect shot number 2, to be like a 'firecracker' and reacted as soon as he saw the President was in distress.
What sort of suppressor can be that good but so specific?
Clint Hill's account differs dramatically from the Warren Commission official version, (and especially if you assume that the Zapruder film accurately reflects the WC story) so you're just going to have to choose for yourself whether he's referring to the "firecracker noise" everyone else heard (which was supposedly the first shot that officially missed everyone), or if the "firecracker bullet" hit Kennedy (way way earlier than he reacts).
What are you talking "firecracker' sound every one else heard, what about the 110 witness that heard three rifle shots?
Let me add that there was no pattern to the witness locations that heard three rifle shots, they were scattered virtually everywhere. Why do you suppose just some people only heard 'firecracker' sounds for one or more shots and in the case of HILL as well as others miss a shot?
