Total area of lethal spots on the body > same on the head.
On the one hand, you have his ear hit. On the other, you got Kirk. When it works, it works. When it doesn’t, you don’t have a second chance, and dozens, hundreds, thousands might die (Gaza, Iran, US) before the next attempt because you missed your shot.
Dude, soldiers are trained to aim center-mass, and they’re trained killers. Some civilian, who doesn’t have nearly the same amount of training with their weapon, and also is much less likely to be going up against armor, definitely doesn’t have a reason to go for a headshot.
A rifle, even firing an intermediate cartridge, such as a 5.56mm NATO round, has a pretty good chance to penetrate all but plate carriers. You can bet our president isn’t going to be walking around with plates on. Even still, the neck is almost certainly lethal. The head has pretty low odds.
The head may seem like the way to go, if your only experience comes from Call of Duty. It isn’t though. Even trained marksmen don’t go for headshots, unless that’s the only option.
ha yeah cuz a body shot is 100% death.
isnt the brain like 80% of the head?
head = obviously unprotected. body=unknown
i get your point, but still seems like the wrong way to go

Even if you hit the brain it’s unlikely to kill. You have to hit the brain stem, which is not very big, for a guaranteed kill

The brain isn’t fatal because he’s clearly not using it already
