especially the one on the right in that picture

7. That's really bizarre
Sitting here, studying both photos, there are so many similarities. It almost makes it appear that the Loughner pic was photoshopped from the Beck one (of course, I'm assuming the Beck photo is the older of the two). Eyes, shape of nose, shape of mouth (and shape of smirk), same lines on the forhead, both look like they have some sort of mole or spot under the left eye - even the bags under the eyes are the same. Spots on the right side of the chin also seem very similar.

The main differences I see are Beck's hair, and double chin. Otherwise, they look like they could be related, if not the same person. Crazy.

16. It is Beck's face that is photoshopped, motuh and nose. Look closer.

10. I didn't do it,
and even with it being shopped, the similarities stand out.

11. Is it really?
My first thought was photoshop, too, but the Google brings up a bunch of hits for this photo, including Huffington Post, ABC and CBS. They all report it as being Loughner's mugshot.

Did I miss something about the photo not being real? Genuinely curious.:shrug:

12. The Loughner one is his actual mugshot.
Parts of his face's features were layered over Beck's face. The Beck one's shopped, the Loughner one is real. Still, looks like Beck, doesn't it?

For real?

Edit: apparently the Beck one is tweaked. Never mind. But still...
