Just because you mesh Google, whose motto is "Don't be evil", with LG, whose motto is "Life's Good" does not take the idea out of my mind that one dropped word (Do evil to good life) can have a significant impact.

When I see stuff like this I always think "What would Mozart (or substitute some other ancient person) think of this if they were in the crowd".

I need some input from a reasonably-articulate, non-rabid blowhard the NRA variety.
What do you think of the posture demonstrated in this photograph? They physical posture I mean, not the political pose, which we can all recognize as ludicrous.
I know nothing of firearms, and don't want to judge based on nothing but having seen a few dozen action movies.
Still, it seems like that man isn't in a steady stance, whether for sport or warfare. Would the target in such a setting be higher than the shooter? The butt looks high and distant on the shoulder, I'm guessing the knees are locked, his right elbow looks low, and his right paw looks a like a first-time ass grab.
Also, what's with the gasses going sideways three inches behind the nozzle?
SHORT ANSWERS please!

Hey-zeus fucking krees-toe, I can't believe I lived to be this old!
(sorry)
I was thinking the other day how even members of the most recently departed generation would have been dumbfound by my casual Wednesday comment to friends: "So I took a snapshot with my phone, and…."

Crid:
Since you asked ....
The things you point out are the result of the fact that this GIGANTIC, high-caliber gun has just been fired, and the recoil is HUGE. That is why the barrel has jerked upward and the stock has been driven back into and up the shoulder. This is also why the shooter looks a little off-balance -- he is! I'm no gun expert, but I believe that the gas ejected to the side is a pressure-release that helps avoid having this cannon break the shooter's shoulder.
