Speaking of making a point, what's up STrav? Somebody whiz in your Cheerios this morning? Everyone has an equal right to post here, whether or not you agree with them. How about bringing your condecension down a notch.
The point is, we're dealing with a grainy image, one that has been altered so many times by armchair detectives, it's difficult to know when we're seeing the original. Furthermore, it's been discussed over and over and over, and the general consensus is that people either see an axe, a gun, etc, or they don't. They see what they see, and no amount of arguing is going to change their mind.
That doesn't mean you shouldn't or can't try. It just means that some of us have beaten that dead horse enough, and we prefer to agree to disagree, for the good of the group and the discussion.
