Jokes aside though, this is probably going to take a huge mental toll on that kid who was defending himself. He may end up suffering from PTSD among other potential issues. I can't imagine that killing a man is something that weighs lightly on one's soul, even in self defense.
Don't people usually throw up the first time they kill someone, or is that just a trope?
Don't get me wrong, they got what they deserved, but even if you're killing a terrorist who deserves death, there's no way to avoid it taking a toll on your psyche. Empathy kind of fucks us that way. I'd even go so far as to say that one of the only advantages that they have over us is that they're fucking psychos with no empathy.
Trope. Some people do. Some people go into shock. Some realize the instinct kicked in and it doesn't bother them. Not being a tough guy but after Afghanistan it doesn't bother me one bit. Kill or be killed. If they chose to fight and lost, that's their loss. Not mine. Should've trained harder and wished for more luck.
Well, you seen how that round cavitated in that guys bicep. It caused it to to explode. That same round center mass is enough to cavitate and stop your heart and lung function pretty quick if not instantly. You got to remember a good hollow point rifle round will expand and try to leave as much energy from that round into the target and create a significant wound cavity to stop the threat.

You have a point. I think he'll be alright knowing it was a domestic terrorist.
He can rest easy, those guys died of covid.

Skate or die!
He chose the latter apparently!
Just what I have seen on inter web.
Police report indicated two dead, one serious injury. Only those 3 guys were shot AFAIK.
Source on deaths?
Just what I have seen on inter web.
Which ones died? Been trying to get a confirmation on Ginger Midget and "Dropped Your Skateboard" all night.
2 K/D. I've done worse.
The guy with the deck that got taken out.... A Skater, hence..."Skatie"
