The proof is never enough, is it? Here we have a photo that completely 
blows any conspiracist argument to the contrary out of the water, and now 
the weapon only just fits."

Now I've heard everything :>D

And, just an observation: Isn't it funny how the conspiracists here are 
strangely silent as to the contents of this photo? Just a couple months 
ago this same argument came up, and when the photo couldn't be found on 
the web to show here (thank DVP for it being found), but was mentioned to 
appear in Bugliosi's book, all kinds of conspiracist naysayers came out of

the woodwork to scoff.

You are right the gun would JUST fit in the paper sack but there is no way
that the top of that sack could be folded over with the rifle inside.
