According to a new analysis,

[...] In this paper, simple one-dimensional dynamical models are uniquely applied to study in detail the fatal shot and the motion of the President's head observed in the film. Using known parameters from the crime scene, explicit force calculations are carried out for determining the projectile's retardation during tissue passage along with the resulting transfer of momentum and kinetic energy (KE). The computed instantaneous KE transfer within the soft tissue is found to be consistent with the formation of a temporary cavity associated with the observed explosion of the head, and subsequent quantitative examination of this phenomenon reveals two delayed forces at play in the backward motion of the President following impact. It is therefore found that the observed motions of President Kennedy in the film are physically consistent with a high-speed projectile impact from the rear of the motorcade, these resulting from an instantaneous forward impulse force, followed by delayed rearward recoil and neuromuscular forces.

janrinok: Be prepared for some detailed mathematical proofs, but well within the abilities of our community, and some interesting deductions.

    Oh, and after having made this comment, I fully expect my current three submissions to be immediately and summarily rejected without notice in a fit of pique! It has happened many times before, I am used to it. But the point of the comment still stands.

    Wow! Only one pending submission is denied! A moderate and measured reprisal! Time to go find some STEM Nazi alt-right stories, I guess.

      You might find some legitimate STEM alt-right stories that are news. You might find some legitimate STEM Nazi stories, though they will be historical or fake-Nazi. You won't find Nazi alt-right anything.

      We know what you are trying to do: the Big Lie.

      You see that "Nazi" is the great evil. You want to slander your opponent, the alt-right. What better way could there be?

      It's even a two-for-one deal, because pushing that idea might make somebody forget that the Nazi party, long extinct by the way, was socialist. They were only to the right of communism, which was indeed the popular alternative in 1930s Germany. Oh dear, you can't be having anything Nazi be associated with your current political leanings!

      Oh, and now you'll drag out the No True Scotsman fallacy. You'll claim the Nazi party wasn't socialist. They sure as fuck were, just like Venezuela is. It's you. Own it.

      Hey, let's check some of the platform:

      • What US party is hostile to the Jews? It's not the one that elected a man with a Jewish daughter. It's the one that flipped out over moving the US embassy to Israel's capital. It's the one aligned with the targeting of Jewish student groups.
      • What US party agrees with Hitler on gun control? Yeah... FYI, the holocaust was only possible because Hitler disarmed the Jews. Are you planning a genocide?
      • What US party, like Hitler, is fond of Margaret Sanger? (founder of Planned Parenthood) Yep, it's democrats, trying to get rid of undesirable people. Even today, you find abortion clinics mainly near black neighborhoods.
      • What US party is most closely associated with something like Hitler's brownshirts? Oh, it's democrats with antifa.
      • What US party, like the Nazi army in France, has been destroying statues? It's democrats again.
      • What US party would endorse what Hitler said in 1927? “We are socialists, we are enemies of today’s capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions.”

      Well gee, it looks like aristarchus is a Nazi.

        Sorry, but your knowledge of political history is at the alt-right level, as in everything you have said is an alternative to what is right. Amazing how easily some are taken in by Russian troll-farm agitprop! I bet you think Islam is a threat to the "West". I'll bet you think that blacks commit more crime than whites, because they are "black". I'll even bet you think that women are different than men, in areas like cognition, calculation, and rumination! Yep, another gun-loving, Schlitz-drinking, ammosexual, gamergating, wymen-hating, white-somethingist, complete and total looser, stupid enough to support a NY real estate developer, because he's "country" and "christian"! The stupid, it burns! Sorry I have nothing helpful to say to you, other than, "oh, noes, you're on to me!", and to insult you until you double and triple down and start doing stupid things like supporting Nazis.

      The UK just killed a second toddler, starving the child to death.

      http://thefederalist.com/2018/04/27/single-payer-health-care-denies-care-sick-children-like-alfie-evans/ [thefederalist.com]

      It isn't a year past them killing Charlie Gard in a very similar situation.

      In both cases, a socialized medicine system has a group of people decide that the child will die. (totally not a "death panel", right?)

      In both cases, the parents are offered free treatment in other countries. (Charlie in the USA, and Alfie in Italy)

      In both cases, the parents are prohibited from taking their children out of the hospital that has decided to kill.

      Before Hitler started killing Jews, he killed people like Charlie Gard and Alfie Evans. Know your history. The disabled, both physically and mentally, were first to be killed.

      To be clear, it isn't the "Nationalism" of the "National Socialist" (Nazi) party that causes this. It's the socialism. Socialism always leads to the killing of undesirables because they are a burden on the socialist system.

      We need some research about how far a Nazi can shove his cock down a Greek philosopher's throat. Get on it, Aristarchus!
