I literally hope that if half the people on this board are ever bitten by a King Cobra they die a slow and agonizing death because they came into the emergency screaming about being bitten by a poisonous snake and the ER team lets them die while arguing about poisonous vs venomous.

Tom Cotton starting the 2024 primary against Cruz and Hawley on Fox & Friends: "You have some senators who, for political advantage, were giving false hope to their supporters. These senators, as insurrectionists literally stormed the capitol, were sending out fundraising emails."

I do appreciate the measured-ness of the single shot (or small number of shots, can't tell for sure) rather than the city cop style "everyone empties their magazines in the general direction." I don't think anyone trains to target the neck, though. In a chaotic scene with a difficult shooting angle past the door, the guard might have intended a warning shot, a center mass shot, or anything in between. |
