and the "baffle them with bullshit" crowd has been in high gear on that one for 50 years.
Look at any respected medical text on gunshot wounds to the skull. They all say it is almost universal that the entry wound is small, and if the bullet exits, it will almost always be much larger. With my apologizes for the gruesome details, we know the large wound was in the back of his head and that is where the majority of matter went. Jackie's instant reaction was to jump onto the trunk to try to save that matter. Of course it was futile, but it was the instant reaction. What a horrible moment that was for her.
And when they took JFK to the hospital, he was in a gurney on his back. The attending physicians say the small entry wound and saw him struggling to breathe. They instantly started a tracheotomy and an infusion of plasma in a leg artery because, for what they saw at that instant, they thought there was a chance of saving him. But then they looked at the back of his head, which was obviously the exit would and immediately knew he would not live. -- and they stopped their efforts.
Nothing could be more obvious. But of course, that means that the head shot did not come from the depository. And that in turns means that Oswald couldn't have been a 'lone nut" (if he was even involved at all.). Which in turn leads to the inevitable conclusion that some organized group -- probably with CIA assets conducted this operation. And that potentially leads to upheaval that could threaten the very existence of the security state. So the Commission decided it must stonewall, fabricate, and whitewash. They had to stick with their ridiculous theories no matter how preposterous some of them were. And that all starts with denying the obvious -- that the fatal shot came from JFK's front.
