A little video to brighten your day (Warning: Graphic - RPG vs US soldiers)

A round will not make two 90 degree changes in direction inside a human body. That's what the Kennedy graphics try to make you believe.

Next I suppose your going to say he was shot by more than a single bullet.

Why is it so hard to accept that one shot missed? Sheeez.

Why is it so hard to accept that YOU may be wrong? Sheeez...

[rageaholic]

Yeah a .50 round exploding a militant's head would be cool. There must be more shots like this, unfortunately the Western press censors anything that doesn't fit their criteria of making the world safe for liberals and other daisy people.

[B4Ranch]

Not me. I ain't going to say the Warren Commission was wrong!

ALLAH AKBAR!

There are too many gun "Experts" who have never shot anything other than paper. They have no experience as far as what bullets will do in other materials.

Here is a good example. Instead of spending some time and analyzing a proven fact in this film, all sorts of theories are being presented. Multiple shooters, different directions, single shooter and one direction. I hope this thread lasts long enough so some people can learn something.

I've read elsewhere that this man was training his rpg on a squad of Marines. I'm fairly sure that this man was killed with a M240 SAW, a 5.56mm rifle that fires with such blazing speed that it requires frequent changing of the barrel do to heat.
Anyway, I hope the a**hole enjoys the virgins. "US Marine Corps...travel agents to allah"

An afterthought...at the end of the video, a man comes into view and he appears to have a weapon slung across his right shoulder. What discipline it must take for these Marines to watch but not kill him. It is my understanding that during "combat operations" the rules of engagement allowed our boys to fire on any perceived threat. Now that we are essentially a peace-keeping force, you may not fire unless in grave danger. I understand the administration is treading on thin ice with this Iraq situation, and this is an election year, but this political policy is costing American lives! All I'm saying is that when a car approaches our troops and won't stop as instructed...let the bodies hit the floor! When you see this man that I mentioned with the gun, take him out! Anything else is irresponsible. I am a Bush supporter, but am throwing the bulls#*t flag here. Our troops are white knuckling service rifles while adhering to policies that may cost thier lives. I will vote for Bush because he and his administration take the hard stance on many issues that I agree with...I will not ,however, give them a pass here.

Where's the dang link......

[fso301]

If you look very carefully, just prior to the first tracer hitting him, you'll see a small puff of what appears to be smoke or debris up near the RPG. Almost as if the first round hit the RPG or maybe he was smoking and exhaled. I don't know for certain but there appears to be a cloud of something high on his right near the RPG before the first tracer hits.

[fso301]

This is the shot that went through him:

Notice though the little puff up by the right side of his face. I'm wondering if that wasn't the first hit.

[Der Teufelhund]

A tracer round is placed every five rounds. This was one shooter, one m240 SAW. "The deadliest weapon in the world is a Marine and his rifle."
