Okay. Isn't taht what I said? But nobody believes a woman about this stuff... In the end, you'd only have half a head. If that.

I've asked before, and I ask again: WHY do so many people on this thead want, and I mean really want to believe this sort of silly stuff? Bill's no hero, but I fail to understand why he excites so much visceral hatred among so many (or so few, if the polls are to be believed).

I detested Nixon, but did at least try to be objective, and didn't go in for every crackpot theory that came along. Not that I actually recall any: Watergate was quite enough. But had it been bruited about that he'd snuffed hundreds of people in California, or a few in Georgetown, well, nooooo, sorry...

<With a standard .45 there would be no skull, believe me on this.>

Not necessarily. Remember the famous (infamous?) film of the S. Vietnamese general shooting the suspected Viet Cong in the head during the Vietnam war? He was using a 357 magnum, a much higher velocity bullet than a standard .45, at very close range and there was no exit of the bullet in that case. Now, a high velocity rifle bullet like a 30.06 for instance would do just as you asserted even at long range. Yes, a .22 short would be just as effective but is not the standard issue weapon of the military. I think it is still the .45. Besides, like others on this thread I wonder aloud why? This also begs the question: why not an autopsy? This would silence all the doubts once and for all if the hole were determined to have been created by on object on the plane. There has no explanation, plausible or otherwise, for the reason for no autopsy. Just do the autopsy and let the chips fall where they may. Let's determine where the hole came from and then go from there.
