“Blood follows gravity, so if the entry point is behind the head, it won’t be going against gravity.”
The entry point from where the snipers were stationed would have been in the front of the head. The entry point with a high power rifle bleeds less than the exit wound. The expansion of a bullet blows out the exit. The size of the exit wound depends on the type/design of the bullet.
All that taken into consideration a head wound bleeds profusely, and if the bullet actually exited out the back of the head it should have created a path of spray. However, with the angle the shooter was lying on the roof the bullet could have traveled down into the body, and bullets don't always track a straight line after impact.
EDIT NOTE: I don't know what type bullet the snipers were using, but I think it safe to say when you might be required to shoot into a crowd you don't want bullets that pass straight through to kill innocents. I think it likely they were using some type of hollow point or ballistic tip that would retard penetration.
The bullet from the sniper(s) behind Trump would have hit the shooter in the left check and gone out behind the right ear. The rest of the shooter's body would have been just slightly down hill on that notoriously slopely roof. Unless somehow his heart kept beating without most of his brain whatever blood was in his head would have been misted out into the air and spread out in a large area down the roof. It was a windy day there too.
The slope isn't that great but you are likely correct if the bullet wasn't deflected by the impact with his skull. An FMJ bullet would have zipped through his skull and should have an impact, possibly great enough, to penetrate the building some where behind him. With FMJ there would not have been a very large exit wound. A hollow point or ballistic tip would have left a hole you could almost put a fist in, and the blood would have been everywhere.
The best match grade bullets out there are spire point hollow point boat tail bullets. The accuracy is unmatched. FMJ are cheaper to make, and the military uses FMJ bullets because the Geneva Convention outlawed the use of hollow points. They saw the damage done by hollow point bullets as inhumane. Like getting shot with anything is fucking humane. kek
FMJ bullets will pass through with less damage, and FMJ bullets are a threat to anyone standing behind the target.
Hollow points are best for protection of innocent bystanders. You want the bad guy to absorb the force of impact and not have the bullet exit him at all.
The extra tissue damage from bullet fragments careening and ricocheting around inside the body is a highly desirable intended result. You want the internal bodily tissues of the target to soak up all that energy, to create maximum internal bleeding.
(Remember, Geneva, we're shooting this guy not to give him a nice massage, but to stop him from being able to continue his life-threatening behavior. Often, that means killing.)

LOL, you said retard. /sarc
And penetration!
😂
I Love You guys!!!😍😘🥰🤩 😂😂😂🫶🏻🫶🏻

Hence the FBI hosing off the roof?

That building is a pretty large slopey slope. The SS could not even get on top of it. /s
FMJ has the better flight than a hollow point or soft point.
No they don't.

We definitely need to know what round was used.
