Why can't "they" do a DNA test on the "Magic Bullet?"

[Floogeldy]

It hit skin, blood and bone.

JFK

1. A: it is old

B: there is no doubt it hit JFK

[sir_captain]

3. It doesn't matter how old it is

though I join you in wondering why one would to do it at all

[sir_captain]

2. What would be the point of this?

[Floogeldy]

4. To prove that it was "magic."

And could Oswald's DNA be on it?

[AngryAmish]

5. or Monica's

[sir_captain]

6. How would a DNA test prove that it was "magic"

regardless of how many holes it made in JFK's head, it's going to have his DNA on it, no?

And why would it have Oswald's DNA on it? That doesn't make any sense at all.

8. Correct me if I am wrong.

The magic bullet did not hit JFK in the head.

Oswald handled the bullet to load the rifle.

[AngryAmish]

11. Most likely he did not handle the "bullet"

Go to the gundeon to explain how a round works.

14. DNA isn't magic fairy dust

first of all, he probably handled the casing, not the tip of the bullet. Second, even if he did touch the bullet, it's highly unlikely he left any DNA on it. And even if he did, it would have been in the form of dead skin cells which would have been incinerated/blown off when the bullet was fired.

9. It'd prove they're liars

Can't have that. No, sirEE.

15. What, wasn't the answer the magic 8-ball® provided adequate?
