So I'm reading this famous book now and I have a question:
There are six bullets shot in 1.7 sec according to many sources:
1st one hits press secretary; 2nd hits a police officer; 3rd misses?? 4th hits secrete agent; 5th misses?? 6th hits the car and breaks into piece, then a fragment somehow gets inside Reagan's lung?
Some of the details make no sense to me. 8/6/2014 2:10:18 PM |

The assassinator is too close to the president. Reagan is really saved by god. 8/6/2014 2:31:20 PM |

Actually the secrete agent and the police act as human shields and help him preventing from getting more shots. 8/6/2014 2:55:34 PM |

True. How many 70-years-old men can survive a fatal gun shot like this and still work four years as president and die at the age of 93? The bullet is only 1 inch away from his heart. 8/6/2014 9:27:32 PM |

I think it's a reverse Sixth Sense where Reagan is alive but we're all dead. 8/7/2014 12:14:26 AM |

He's really a damn good human shield for the president, a previous football player. Without him, Reagan will probably be a human dice.

No holes in dice. Those are called pips and they're just small indentations. Also, the single form of dice is just a 'die.'
Now I must prepare for my next D&D session.

i think the author tries to illustrate the story as novel as possible. like 6 bullets in 1.7 sec, the complication of the surgery, and reagan's heroic behavior. an accident can be described as long as a book.
they should film a movie called reagan and his fbi or something. 8/8/2014 3:51:34 PM |
