    If he got emergency medical assistance within seconds of this happening there’s a small chance. For better and worse doctors got crazy good at keeping gunshot wounds in the field alive long enough to get surgery during the second Iraq war.

        Yeah, a thing that probably happened to a dozen Palestinian kids off camera happened to a wealthy white dude on camera. Oh well, it’s cruel world and I wish it wasn’t, but not like people like Kirk ever listen to people like me.
