I meant it to be straightforward. What do you think? To me, the shot is easily possible. All of the effects of the bullet are possible. And if you flip it around, and think about what multiple shooters would imply, it gets much less possible. Kennedy had a hole in his throat and one in his back behind the throat. If one of those shots came from the front, then from where? Connally is in front of him, the windshield is clearly higher than JFK's throat, and the center bar between the passenger and rear doors would have made a shot to the throat impossible from the front. Given where he was struck (further up the street than the view from the street in the photo above--and btw, I've stood on that X in the road, and there's no significant distortion in that photo. The distortion you describe comes about when a telephoto lens takes pictures of far distant objects, like planes or the moon.), there aren't any places on the knoll where someone could hit him in the throat without standing in front of the pergola or shooting through the windshield. If the throat wound is an exit wound, meaning he was shot from behind, where would the bullet have gone? You can see from the pictures that Connally is right in front of him, slightly lower, and slightly inboard. Notice the angle of the road, and the straight line effect is enhanced.

Frankly, I think you need magic bullets and impossible shots to claim the Grassy Knoll as the origin of either shot that hit JFK or Connally.
