"That terrorist’s head would look good stuffed, mounted, and on display in the sniper’s living room. It would be a great conversation piece."

It was a .50 cal rifle. If it was a head shot, there wouldn't be much left to stuff & mount. Just kibbles and bits for the local stray dogs.

There was some sniper talking about a movie. “Yeah - the head shot with the blood splatter on the wall behind him isn’t accurate - but we couldn’t very well show what really happens. At that distance the bullet is coming almost straight down. The head disintegrates, and the upper torso is torn in half.”
