Yes, it does. And considering how they shot a man lying on the ground. The magic bullet going from left thigh to abdomen to kidney makes me think he was down. But what do I know?

Does mostly legs and arms make it seem like he may have been crouching? Any clue as to the trajectory of the bullets through the body?

Sounds like that's what happened but it doesn't necessarily mean they did so intentionally. Could be more on the side of incompetence, firing dozens of rounds blindly at a target they can barely or not at all see, without knowing he's already down. Not allowing medics in for an hour and a quarter, that's another matter.

Wups. Cut and paste error. Firefox does that to me fairly often. I was intending to respond to where you posted "And considering how they shot a man lying on the ground. The magic bullet going from left thigh to abdomen to kidney makes me think he was down."

I was making the point that while they almost certainly shot him while he was down, that doesn't necessarily imply they knew that's what they were doing when they did it. OTOH, if so, that simply moves the problem from malice to incompetence, which isn't a big improvement.
