Turning Point USA spokesman Andrew Kolvet on Saturday said Charlie Kirk’s surgeon called it an “absolute miracle” that the bullet that killed him didn’t exit his body because dozens of people were standing behind him when he was shot.
“I want to address some of the discussion about the lack of an exit wound with Charlie. I’m usually not interested in delving into most of this kind of online chatter, and 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,” Kolvet, the executive producer of “The Charlie Kirk Show,” wrote in a lengthy post on X.
Not this, this is completely fucking impossible.
A pistol round could do what is being described here, that is believable.
Not a 30.06, that is completely impossible.
Oh, christ, is this the shit the conspiracy theories latch onto?
Yes, bullets do weird things.
30-06 round like that, at double or triple that distance, will knock a full grown deer off its feet from the energy and put a hole the size of a fist in it. If it’s a hollow point round, double that exit wound size.
Usually you’d use a round of that caliber to hunt moose or bears. Many deer hunters think it’s overkill.
Bullets interacting with human tissue DO have a tendency to get weird, but the forces involved here simply do not add up as presented.
So you’re saying it was a miracle?
No miracle, also not .30-06
Maybe the bullet transformed miraculously?
Right, perhaps it was actually an unleavened wafer.
Not like that they don’t
Got it, you have no familiarity with firearms nor the physics involved, understood.
