i dont think you die instantly. the bullets go into your heart, not your head. if you read the articles, witnesses say that he didnt die instantly and he was clenching his fists and moving his arms until he died.

now he knows what his victims felt in the last moments of their lives.
wow-I figured it was bullets to the face.hmmm....still seems more of my way to go.
Is there an assault rifle option available then? Spray me full of holes like swiss cheese then. Or maybe a grenade in the mouth. :jaw:

I don't know what type of rifle they use, but they use .30 caliber bullet. Which is pretty big bullet.

most likely a police-issue .308 bolt action. a good sized round indeed. not to mention 4 of them into your heart :eek:

im pretty sure id did kill him instantly. humans as well as most animals can move and such long after consciosness has ended. the impact of the bullets and strikes to the heart sent a shockwave threw the body and most likly shut down the nervous system instantly.

with that said, humans dont die easily. he prob did not have actuall consciousness after the bullets hit. was just his basic parts of his brain moving tryin to survive. the only way to end life without any movement is a perfect shot to the brain stem. very percise shot.

you think so? i dunno, it just doesnt seem to me that a shot(s) to the heart will kill you instantly. there's gotta be a few seconds where youre fully aware of whats going on, and im pretty sure you can feel it. who knows
 
its a possiblitity but im pretty sure that the impact shockwave would shut down the nervous system. that why ur supposed to, when hunting big cats such as lions, use a large caliber with a flatish bullet. the impact shuts down thier nervous system. u could, and people have killed lions with a .22 but it does shut them down like the big guns do.
 
Well don't they have to die instantly for it no not be "cruel and unusual" The firing squad are highly trained to aim for a part (like the brain stem?) to kill them instantly, right?

as far as i know its not the head but the center of mass. i think this is more to disable the target as apposed to the T i think snipers use
across the eyes and down the mouth aiming for the part of the brain the

The Medulla Oblongata constitutes the lower part of the brain stem and controls involuntary actions like breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure.
so this is the human off switch :ROFL: you hit this out goes the lights you dont twitch i belive nothing

personaly i think a bolt would be a better way cheap quick cleanish
 
u are correct. thats the spot(if i remeber correctly) will drop them with absolutly no movement, no brain function nothing.

there are other spots that will drop them like flys but they dont instantly end movement. they instantly end life but still get twitchs
 
well i thiink its ok only with people that wrongfully takes another life its dumb that ppeople preach that they should be forgiven i guarntee that if someone killed your family member you wouldnt want to forgive him i think that its an ok idea only for murderers
