America's deadliest sniper Chris Kyle was killed yesterday. I don't have a link so maybe someone could throw it up for us. Kyle served several tours of duty as a Navy Seal Sniper. He had over 150 confirmed kills and many more that weren't confirmed. He was injured twice while serving. Kyle also authored a great read, American Sniper. He also was the founder of Craft International. A training facility for military, law enforcement, security and private savilians. Chris Kyle is a TRUE American Hero! Gone... But not forgotten. RIP

Mark, I just spoke to a Seal friend of mine who knew him. He was unsure of the exact details of how it went down. He did tell me Chris and another guy were helping a young man with Post Tramatic Stress Disorder. The kid was pretty wacked out. How exactly it happened we don't know yet, but the kid killed Chris and the other guy. Very sad! Great book by the way.

Shooting took place at Rough Creek Lodge near Glen Rose, TX. The weasel that shot them then fled back to the Dallas area where he was apprehended. We lost a great American Hero.
Adios,
Gary

Muck,
Pay no attention to them. They're the same type of people, that will be hiding in their closet scared to death some day. At that moment they'll be praying that a hero like Chris Kyle will come to their rescue.

Woa, your gonna ruffle some feathers with that one! Don't you know your not allowed to think that! You've been told what to think about him! He's a patriot and hero!

But, I don't blame him, entirely. I blame him for his actions, but he was raised in our society.
