Did Charlie Kirk get shot twice?
No just once in the neck. There was a single spent casing. and after seeing that first shot there wasn't really a need for a follow up. The extra blood dot might indicate the blood that drenched his shirt
Not as far as I know, but this does imply it!
It bounced off of his body armor and got him in the neck.

I'm near certain he was not wearing body armor, and if he was, it was definitely not level IV plate. That stuff is thick.
Watch the video
I have, repeatedly. It's not easy to conceal body armor under a T-shirt without it printing obviously.
I think it's the entrance and exit wounds. I can't verify, but i heard he was shot in the chest and it exited the neck.
Eta: I'm not trying to spread misinformation. It may be wrong, but its possible the comic artist heard the same thing.
That would make for a truly bizarre bullet trajectory
You’ve obviously never seen Wanted. It explains all of this. Learn science, scrub.
Bullets can do weird things after hitting bone. I doubt it did this, but I wouldn't expect it to be a clean straight path either.
Turns out it was a 30.06. I expect that to burn a straight hole through a human neck. Certainly does so through 3/8" steel! SOURCE: Done that.
That is a heck of a round. I wouldn't expect much deflection from it.
The bullet was making sure to do a good job
Factuality aside, it’s confusing and weird for a cartoon to depict it like this.
I wondered, and stated, the same. Smaller rounds do some truly weird shit bouncing around. Nah. 30.06 to the neck, that seems to be what we saw.
