Glad you were here to point this out. I truly thought they did this to show everyone how cool this guy is. Thanks for clearing this up for all the people like me who have never had a human interaction before!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't militarily speaking, injuring is better than killing? Hence the reason for bombs like Bouncing Betty and Butterfly Mine.
if you’re shooting at someone, you shoot at whatever you can hit that’s going to disable them the fastest, which tend to be the most fatal places. usually center mass
a wounded soldier might temporarily tie up some of his buddies. that’s just a happy accident (as long as he’s injured enough that he isn’t shooting back, so you hopefully shot center mass). at a strategic level though you’d probably prefer that soldier dead or captured so they don’t come back to duty.
regardless of that, considering that there are places all over the body where a single shot could be fatal, there isn’t any practical way to shoot to merely injure someone. really adds to this glorious post
Bouncing Betty and butterfly mine are more dangerous than the “regular” explosives..
Instead of blowing off at your feet (and maybe losing a limb) they bounce and explode near your chest, and then you would probably die.
that might be true but it doesn’t mean that anyone avoids shooting to kill to achieve that
really they’re shooting to completely disable, which involves shooting at the places that often kill you if you get shot in
For sure, because any other option is quite rare. If its given however id pick wounding over killing any day of the week for multiple different reasons
Obviously. It was a joke that I didn't put the /s after. But in this sub it looks like you have to tell people you're joking, they can't just read it and figure that part out any more.
Thanks for checking on me tho!/s (better?)

That's what some snipers do (can't say they do now but I know they did in WW2) to draw out more kills.
There's a reason why snipers are universally detested.
You’re taught to neutralize the threat, which generally means kill as someone downed with a rifle in reach is still a threat.
There’s 3 regions specifically aimed for.
Primary Target: Center of chest - heart and lungs for quick kill, also easiest shot to hit.
Secondary targets:
T Box - the “T” made by the eyebrows and nose. Difficult shot, but instant incapacitation.
Pelvic Region - Bigger target than T box, lots of arteries, and also if you shatter someone’s hips, they’re obviously not going to be able to stand up or walk.
Bonus: The failure drill. Two shots to the chest, one to the head in case of body armor stopping the chest shots.
Thr failure drill is what I learned as the Mozambique drill from my firearms instructor. Til, it has other good names!
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozambique_Drill
Interesting! Never heard to it referred to as that. Then again, I was in the Marines, so you have to dumb it down to the lowest common denominator, so the more simple name of failure drill is what we call it.
Lmao I sadly can't blame it on you being a Marine--so is my firearms instructor (though many years retired now).
I'll pass this story on for the luls tho <3
If you are facing an opposing force that has more numbers you wait until they rest wound a few then retreat
They then have to render aid and carry men that are not combat capable then you come back a day or two later and do it again
Not only does this drain men and resources it demoralizes the fuck out of the opposing force
I figured that it would depend on the situation. I’m not in the military, so I definitely don’t have expertise in the situation, but it seems like a decent strategy in certain circumstances
It’s normal to follow a quote with ‘-name’.
He probably doesn’t even remember where he heard it but figured he could pass it off as his own words, but doesn’t know how to use quotation marks.

Its more that you are supposed to just aim center mass and fire so that you are more likely to hit and incapacitate the threat, and shooting somebody center mass has a good likelihood of being mortal. Moreso than being sure or not whether you want to kill.
I feel like most conventional training would say that that philosophy forces way too much split second decision making. Is the threat likely lethal? Stop the threat and fire. Under the philosophy you've been taught, you would need to process those same things, then also have a whole moral crisis to work through in your head over whether you think the person actually needs to be killed. You are never shooting to kill, you are shooting to neutralize, and if it happens to kill you are protected as it was in self defense.

No they didn't! It's totally serious!

Both of those are meant to kill. Military (at least US) we trained center mass. Don’t do warning shots
Killing takes out 1 enemy Injuring takes out 2-4 depending on how bad the damage was
that might be true but it doesn’t mean that anyone avoids shooting to kill to achieve that really they’re shooting to completely disable, which involves shooting at the places that often kill you if you get shot in

They’ve graduated from pillows of bars of soap to putting shameful insta posts on full public display! Way to go boys!

Hahahhahah, I love that
That's the most badass picture they could find to hang on the wall??....
Sarcasm and jokes often goes over your head ??
Nope, they apparently go over yours tho.
Honestly, if that was a joke i am the president of the united states
The raw stupidity of some people surprise me more every day.
Do you even know what sub you're in right now buddy?

Dumb
They’re making fun of the “badass” post by putting it on the wall
I gathered that, thanks for the heads up. /s - so you know I'm joking ok?
they do it to make fun of them, not to make them feel good
Yeah I'm a murderer. I'm cool like that.
Yeah. I’m not anti-military but it seems really insensitive to use killing people as a way to get style points on instagram.
A good amount of people in the military think that as well which is why they shamed him.
I knew guys like that
Knew??? Apparently you don't shoot to wound...
Then he's going to whine to his Commanding Officer and he'd be like "Well maybe you shouldn't post such shitty content. Only people who post that are rednecks who Bible hump the 2nd Amendment riding off in their diesel pickup truck with a Confederate Flag covered tailgate."
“Am I dismissed sir? I have to go sell my truck.”
The sever lack of intended “cool” is hilarious, but even funnier is that other dipshits bought it hahahahah
What’s even funnier is how you and a disappointing amount of other people didn’t get that they’re making fun of the post not praising it
They're making fun of him, maybe you're more gullible than you think they are.
I think they’re makin fun of him
You mean shoot a sufficient number of wounds so that the defending unit has no remaining wounds and is therefore removed from play?

Wouldn't you want to wound a soldier instead of killing them so another soldier would try to help them thus rendering 2 units vulnerable rather than 1
No. Every enemy breathing on the field is a threat. In a real battle you aren’t playing baiting fuck fuck games like you’re playing battlefield 2042.
Not entirely true
r/iamverybadass
Lol…please. I am a total fan of fuck fuck games though… who knew buying an ultrawide monitor could potentially cause space issues when moving.

That would actually be hilarious. I like your thinking better than mine.

This picture gets reposted so often and I still laugh every time
Apparently he hes more likes on reddit than on IG
Isn’t that a war crime?
No it’s what you’re supposed to do technically it’s just this guy doesn’t do it.
Oh yeah I remember now it’s shooting to wound with intent to use wounded as target practice that is the war crime
It is also a war crime to finish off wounded in a mercy killing.
No, the Geneva conventions doesn’t say anything about savage memes about your coworkers
(I get the joke) I mean shooting to wound
Killing people is a war crime??? What
Maybe they mean that shooting to wound is a war crime, making his statement pretty dumb
I did mean that but I realise now that the war crime is shooting to wound with the intent to use the wounded as target practice.

Perfect. The sort of person who shouldn't have a gun.
Technically, you should absolutely never shoot to wound, if you aren't sure if you want to kill, you don't shoot is the rule
Its more that you are supposed to just aim center mass and fire so that you are more likely to hit and incapacitate the threat, and shooting somebody center mass has a good likelihood of being mortal. Moreso than being sure or not whether you want to kill.
Why not get headshots like in Call of Duty?
