I've been shot at with a shotgun and a single BB grazed my ear in like the same spot Trump's ear was hit.

It was at distance with bird shot though, so luckily it did not puncture my ear. My my ear just bent and the BB went past.
Sounded like a swarm of very angry bees.
I shot a jackrabbit in the ear when I was a kid, with a 22. It went straight through the ear, left a neat round hole. Very strangely to me, the rabbit died immediately. I think it literally was just scared to death.

All this talk about Trump's ear made me think. Retards are saying "his ear would have been mangled or blown off" with a 5.56.
No it fucking wouldn't. A small bullet like that, going that fast, even if it was a lead or ballistic-tipped bullet, would have just left a neat little hole just like it did.
There simply isn't enough tissue in an ear to cause any significant expansion or tumbling.
Again, I'm saying anyone who thinks his ear would have been mangled or blown off is a retard.

Yep. If I hear one more damn hippy try to educate the world on ballistics ... it will be one too many.

I tried to educate everyone here on ballistics and still nobody knows everything

Not really. If you know anything about rabbits you'd know they often die of cardiac arrest.

And they still tell us to run

Not sure what would happen to an ear in that situation


Some are saying his ear is a globe - disagree, it's a flat ear

You're not a god damned flat ear believer are you?

It makes more sense than a "round" ball ear spinning crazily through "space"!

That's how you get gravity, we'd all be flung off the ear into space.

Not this hare-brained garbage again.

That’s what I said. Bullets need some resistance. Everyone needs to go out and practice shooting on the local herd of cats. Just cruise around your neighborhood and pop a couple of em. It’s also really good stress relief and stellar for the environment

It’s a good time cunting

It likely didn't impact his ear directly, but nearly grazed it and the shockwave ripped his skin. Still it was within an inch of killing him.

It would simply remove tissue where it's trajectory bisected the target.
If that means a hole, then there is a hole.
If that means a small burned scratch, that can happen too.
It all depends on the character of the contact with the projectile

Are you saying we should judge within earshot, the content of a bullet's character?

Holy shit

There was a guy in the 60s /70s that would chase rabbits on a moped till their hearts would explode. He had a bunch of burger chains.

I wonder if he will put one of those gay assed "gauge" things in the hole. LOL
