The Vietnam pic of a guy with a gun to his head is better than all these. You should know what I'm talking about.


Every time I see that with any kind of caption it makes me laugh. I don't care what it says or how many times I see it.

It's not a picture of a guy with a gun to his head. It's a picture taken at the exact moment a police officer executed a prisoner. You're seeing the guy's exact moment of death. The bullet is inside his head.

So yeah, I can see why it might make for a funny caption.

Tool.

I seem to recall that the guy being shot was actually a North Vietnamese soldier (officer?) caught in S.Vietnam in civilian dress, and as such was subject to summary execution as a spy. Anyone confirm?

Like - I ain't gonna front. I saw this thread &amp; expected to see some nice, arty shots of somebody's girlfriend, or maybe an amateur photo project that somebody was working on. What greets the eye? AtrocityFest '05. I was a little bummed, and it just keeps getting worse, and a slightly more informative post title would have been nice. That's all.

I have not yet learned to instinctively recognize istewart as The Bringer of Doom and Gloom. Is this a major oversight on my part?
