As a shooter, hunter, and physician I assure you this is not fake. This woman has in the instant before the film starts taken a rifle round through the mid-upper chest. A definite kill shot. She is drowning in her own blood in this video and the blood pouring into her trachea is coming out her mouth and nostrils. Not fake. On the ground in the early vid one can see where the round hit the pavement after exiting spraying blood on the ground. I vote real. Most definite real.

So what happens now? The gummint there is killing folks and it appears that folks are becoming enraged by it. More killing won't stop this but rather just escalate the killing on both sides. The gummint there is really in a bad position. The best thing they could do would be leave town and turn things over but I doubt they will. Once set in motion events like this have their own kind of physics.

Brutality will be answered with brutality, IMHO.

The scene is perfectly believable—”doubters” aren’t denying that a person can exhale his or her own blood after being shot in the chest. It’s the position of the men’s hands as the blood appears on the woman’s face that makes some people suspicious. Any hand in that jumble of hands could have applied the blood, but it’s difficult to see exactly what’s going on due to the quality and choppiness of the video. The pools and streams of blood could have been preset. Nothing in this video is theoretically impossible to stage, but that alone isn’t enough to prove it’s fake.

I believe the video is real. I’m just playing devil’s advocate.
