So you're saying a bullet has to strike an ear at a particular angle to make it bleed a lot? What are you talking about?

Analogy fail.

No. Because it's the same body part, with the same number of blood vessels. An injury to one person's ear is comparable to an injury to another person's ear. What wouldn't make sense is comparing an injury to the ear in one person to an injury to another person's pinky toe.

But let's go with your angle. A bullet grazes an arm, it doesn't cause you to lose a pint of blood, any more than if you scratch your arm on some thorns. Both of them just give you a small amount of blood. It's the extent of the injury that matters, not how it happened. In the pics above, one has an intact ear (a grazing wound), one has a chunk of ear missing (a penetrating wound). One person is also a lot fitter than the other and should bleed more. That's the difference.
