I rewatch some of the old shows. Like when tv was all B&W. Old Disney serials, western shows, Sky King, Rin Tin Tin, Lone Ranger, Superman. Old variety shows like Ed Sullivan and comedies like Red Skelton.
Been shot in the ear myself. Seriously. Had I assume an AK bullet pass between the top of my ear and my head. Nicked a groove in my ear and left a burn mark on the side of my head. Ear is cartilage and skin. Bullet hardly notices it as it punches through. It’ll punch a neat hole at a right angle but at that angle it’ll puncture the skull and its game over. Trump got it at an obtuse angle as did I so he’ll have an elongated wound.
The heroic firefighter who threw himself in front of his family and took the bullet for them unfortunately got it full-on.
Fake shot be darned. That firefighter and the other two prove there were live rounds in use.
And John Lennon sang, “Happiness is warm gun”.
