Too many people pearl clutching today over worries of retributive violence, as if the fascists aren’t already going to be committing that violence on us in the near future regardless. It’s not too early to say that this scumbag deserved much worse and I’m glad he got rocked so publicly. Mods I’ll understand if you delete this and I’m truly sorry for the trouble if you do, I just need a personal break today from the media cacophony of liberals collectively reconciling with the realization that we live in an abnormally and horrifically violent society.
Yeah… All the people asking if he managed to survive either didn’t see the vid, or don’t understand bodies, cause he was unconscious within a second and dead seconds later.
The bullet ripped open some juicy neck tunnels and based on his contortion probably fucked with his spine too.
Most people have no idea how destructive bullets actually are to bodies, or how much you bleed. Most people have never seen, or have never seen many, actual shootings, and think that it is something in the neighborhood of an action movie on the bloodier side of things.
Yeah they’re saying it was a high powered, bolt action rifle not just ya normal 5.56 AR. The crack of the shot was very distinctive, most likely something like .308 which will fuck up unarmored personnel.
The bullet just needs to hit a big artery and it’s over.
The only movie I have seen that had realistic war or otherwise gun action was Saving Private Ryan.
There are some out there that show it, or how bloody violence in general is. However they are usually considered to be hard to watch, and always show up on lists. Things like Come and See, Possessor, etc.
Interestingly his head seemed to rock in the same direction that the bullet hit, you would think it would be away.
I think the bullet tore up much of the supporting structure on that side, that’s why he slumped that way.
Fuck this vid is bad.
Right in the middle of his full-throated endorsement of the scapegoating of transsexuals too.
He was going right for the jugular.
Neck and neck with the president himself in making right wing public opinion.
