It didn’t take long for the scriptwriters to address one of the issues that was raised immediately here, as well as every other place where anyone had ever gone deer hunting.
The surgeon who operated on Charlie Kirk said the bullet that killed him miraculously did not exit his neck, likely saving others from getting hit. Turning Point USA spokesman Andrew Kolvet revealed on Saturday night that he had spoken with the surgeon who made the comments directly to him.
In a post on X, Kolvet wrote: ‘I apologize this is somewhat graphic, but in this case, the fact that there wasn’t an exit wound is probably another miracle, and I want people to know.’
The surgeon told Kolvet that the bullet ‘absolutely should have gone through, which is very very normal for a high powered, high velocity round’.
‘I’ve seen wounds from this caliber many times and they always just go through everything. This would have taken a moose or two,’ the surgeon told Kolvet.
A .30-06 bolt action rifle, the kind that was discovered hidden in the woods after Kirk was killed, is used to kill deer, elk, moose, bears and other big game animals. Because this rifle can kill animals six times bigger than humans, the fact that Kirk’s neck stopped this bullet was an ‘absolute miracle’, according to the surgeon Kolvet spoke with.
‘His bone was so healthy and the density was so so impressive that he’s like the man of steel. It should have just gone through and through. It likely would have killed those standing behind him too,’ the surgeon said to Kolvet.
They really do assume people are stupid and will simply believe everything they’re told, no matter how nonsensical. Safe and effective indeed!
