      I don’t think the first shot was aimed at the head, but at the upper body area, while multiple people were wrestling him down. There was no need for usage of lethal force in any of this.

      From what I saw on videos they shot him from behind into his back. But it was not a scene of execution like here in the image, more like a fight situation.

        He had been dragged to the ground, kicked and punched repeatedly by multiple people and hit in the head with some sort of bat, he was unresponsive on the floor by the time the first shot is fired and then he’s clearly already dead or dying and not moving at all when the rest of the shots are fired.

          Huh? I think I was misunderstood here. In no way I wanted to downplay US gestapo here. I just wanted to tell the difference between these two images: In the first one a person seems to be forced to kneel in order to get executed by a shot in the head. The second image was already described by you very well.

            The videos I saw over and over and over he tried to get up and these fascist orcs shot him in the head and this is the photo from that moment.

            Why would you feel the need to point that out?

            How about pointing out that the first is black and white and the other is in colour. Or that the first picture has a bunch of people in the background. Yes, thank you. Good to know your eyes work. But none of that is relevant to the point being made her.

              Because the original comment specifically asked what happened, if the victim was shot in the head from behind.

              Black and white image or the group would be totally out of context.
