Another DUer, Susan Calvin, has found a few-second video of the still image that was taken down. She posted it at #75, linked to here:

CBS NEWS, about a girl: "I pulled her head to the side and she had no face."
Yesterday a photo and video showed some of the carnage, but Twitter has since taken it down, even though the photo had been blurred so that individuals couldn't be identified. (I didn't watch the video.) It showed at least one small child and several other bloodied bodies clumped together on the ground outside a store. Here's an article from the British The Daily Mail that describes some of the horror seen by Steven Spainhouer, one of the first on the scene..

He said she was already beyond saving.
Still set on saving the mess of victims, Spainhouer recalled how he then found another child, who survived the barrage of bullets by being covered by his protective mother, who he said was among eight to die by the gunman.
Spainhouer added: 'When I rolled the mother over, he came out.
'I asked him if he was OK and he said, 'My mom is hurt, my mom is hurt.'
'Rather than traumatize him any more, I pulled him around the corner sat him down and he was covered from head to toe. [It was] like somebody poured blood on him.'

A photo taken from a video that's on Twitter right now. Unlike Cooper (Ex: Natl Finance Chair of Draft Biden; LI Campaign Chair for Barack Obama; Majority Leader Suffolk Legislature) I haven't looked at the whole video.

There is a video circulating that shows the bodies outside the mall from #allentx. Its horrific to say the least.
As a Trauma Surgeon, we often are witness to the #AmericanCarnage that results from bullets on the human body.
Maybe Americans need to see the carnage.
