Enough witness corroboration of any claim constitutes proof and is therefore hard evidence.
1 first-hand eyewitness account is evidence.
2 independently corroborated accounts is hard evidence
3 independently corroborated accounts is proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
We have presented 4 and have 2 more yet unreleased for a total of 6.
Not a single account in the entire investigative body of evidence directly refutes the north side claim.
If thats so then:
1) the aircraft approached. It came in. It clipped a couple of light poles on the way in." Walker Lee Evey
*******EVIDENCE*******
2) "The aircarft went southwest (...) picking off trees and light poles" Tom Hovis
***********Hard Evidence*******
3) "The plane clipped the top of a light pole" Stephen McGraw
************ Proof beyond a resonable doubt*************\
4) "It hit some lampposts on the way in" Afework Hagos
*************just to rub it in*************
So by your reasoning we have just proved that an Airplane knocked down the lightpoles. It seems to me - since you have written all other witnesses
besides your 6 golden children off as being liars and thieves - that you would gain more credence by rechecking these out. Why don't you
"independently corroborate" these people?
Oh - I know why!!!!!! Because they won't say what you want.
I have another question - what does "independently corroborated" mean. Have they been corroborated by anyone besides you and your crew? If now -
then they can't be considered any more independant than the other witnesses listed.
Also where did you come up with that definition of proof when it comes to eyewitness reports. Here is a very disturbing fact:
Seventy-seven percent of post-conviction DNA exoneration cases in the U.S. involve mistaken eyewitness identification testimony, making it the leading
cause of these wrongful convictions.
Eyewitness reports are far from infallible, no matter which side of the arguement you are on. They cannot be taken as proof on their own. They must
be viewed in the context of the larger body of evidence. The larger body of evidence here is irreconcilable with your thoeries. Your attempts to
shrug off the discrepancies by just saying that you do not need to address them, is flawed. The "evidence" you are basing your beliefs on is not
compelling enough to outweigh the shortcommings.


GPS is favored over other navigation, BUT ONLY IF IT MEETS CERTAIN ACCURACY REQUIREMENT S FIRST, due to the fact that
GPS can be deliberately tampered with by "them", or jammed completely. Note that the military use another GPS channel that is precise.
