I watched the vid here, then looked up more on some professional gun sites that are already going through the same thing about it being a vest. Yes its pretty tough to watch !

The vid here clearly shows it's a plate cover, which is not a vest and is easier to conceal and much lighter, people saying a vest is ambiguous it just shows they don't know about other types of chest cover or protection.

On the slow motion views, one can see the hit, you can see the bullet hit the top of the plate and see a splinter across the chest to the left, and then one up to the throat, you can also see the neck strap underneath his shirt on the right hand side as he falls back.

Why does it matter ? Well for one thing it clears up errors of use of vests verse's cover plates, which any one knowing anything about them such as our Mr. I know it all about them, should have mentioned, but carelessly did not !

Until I read or see the actual plate he WAS wearing, I'm sticking to what I've already ascertained with my small not educated brain compared to someone on here with an ego that should be brought down a few steps !

And thats your assessment and personal conclusio.

Myself i see a very clearly and different conclusion. I would pose other screen shots but since being pointed out we have some that may not like it i won't. I dont need to prove anything or change any ones mind on anything. Im just .stating my observations. Latter i found the link I posted that did a good job of putting together what I thought happened with much better video and immiages along with showing a similar style plate.

Never claimed to be right or say anyone is wrong only my assessment.

Level 3 no plate thinnest I can find. Protect against several pistol calibers you need a plate for rifle protection so I don’t see how a ricochet could happen how common are ricocheting bullets with vest?

This horse is dead, and unfortunately so is Charlie. Let's move on.

Really. What does it matter?


Why does it make a difference if he was or wasn’t wearing a plate?


Does that change the fact he was assassinated?

j Staton. Are you examples not exiting 5" of neck. I guess maybe a 110 gr .30 out of a 30 06 may not exit a neck. Na not really Even a 45 gr hp out of my 223 will exit a neck.

Yes i know I said any 06 is going to exit without stating what it will exit. I thought the neck was clear

Just value the time we might have left. It seems to me that the end could be nearing for us all. Forgive me Paul. I am done.
