The last man executed by firing squad was strapped to a chair and shot through the heart by four men with .30-30 rifles

Wasn't this Gary Gilmour?

My guess is that they were in the process of being tied. However, this is only a guess

In the first photo, she is near the truck and already tied. In the second photo the four are away from the truck and the male is still not tied.

Why would they be tied anyway if they are obviously held for the execution?

Though in the final photo, you can see their legs are not tied, but they have riboons on them.

Symbol? Of what?

Re #145

Wouldn't many people be kicking and screaming under such a situation? When people go crazy and desperate, they are not easy to restrain. That is my take.

From another poster on this thread....

"My wife translates the sign as.."this woman is intentional to do the murders.." roughly a convicted murderer. Nothing political in the sign. Also her name is on the sign." (the second person to translate the sign as identifying a murderer)

"I echo the scepticism of some other posters regard the Tibetan angle."

From the original poster....

"Yes, I asked the moderator to replace "dissidents" with "prisoners." Comments on the top of the post was deleted as well. I agree that the source was not accurate."

You want to look for a fight over this. I suggest you lie down for a bit or take the dog for a walk.

btw...I do not visit porn sites and I would certainly not post a link to one here.

I'm not so sure.

I know for a fact that a 7.62x37 will go clean through 1/4 inch steel plate at 50 yards. (I have personally put many of these rounds through many steel plates with my SKS)

One has to do a hydrostatic force calculation to determine if the shock from a 7.62x39 fired from 2 meters would create enough explosive pressure to cause a skull to disintegrate from the lower orbital lobe up.

---------------

Foxes Book of Martyrs includes incidents of many christians who went to the fire singing and praying for their enemies.

Chinese christians take their religion very seriously. I would not be surprised that these are christian.

"China: Execution of Tibetan Prisoners"

These are murderers, common criminals, not Tibetan dissidents as your title implies.

Yeah, this certainly is a forensic puzzle here. I personally think that there was some re-arrangement after the fact.

A 7.62 can certainly do some amazing things, but I don't think it would be as clean or massive as the photo indicates. There would certainly be a cavernous hole in the front, but the back of the skull would probably stay in tact with a smaller entry wound. There would be a whole lot left over. Also, the hair is gone too. Basically, there should be a bigger mess, especially if they used some type of hollow point or soft point round.

Whether the military or police would use such rounds is speculation. I would guess they would use a jacketed round which would never cause this kind of damage.

Interesting puzzle.

I think a regime change in China is way past overdue.

"Like what were their crimes."

Premeditated murder.

Re #155

So they are prisoners. In light of controversy, I ask the title to be changed from "dissidents" to "prisoners." I try to be neutral about their nature. Someday we may be able to eventually find out what their real crime was.
