The 'if' is the problem. Any chance you plan to read his book, study up on the man, and make your own decision?

I'll give you that it's problematic. And I'll answer you honestly that I will probably never read the work of a man who told numerous stories that are likely not true.

I love words like "if" and "likely". Essentially, you won't read the book because you might learn something that goes against your liberal viewpoint. You might find out *gasp* terrorists are BAD PEOPLE!

Kyle's estate is on its second appeal of a $1.8M judgment against it for libel and slander. Multiple judges have ruled him a liar; there is nothing "likely" about it.

By Ventura. What a man.

I'm not going to read all the comments. I'm just going to vent to make myself feel better.

Haven't seen the movie, nor ever intend to. It's exceedingly rare for a combat movie to be even remotely realistic. Especially based on some Braggarts book of lies.

Why do I think the movie is so popular ? Simple. All the gun loving Idiots in this country that thinks a gun makes them more of a man. Gotta have a hero. It's not just the idiots in this
Country. It's the way men are all over the World are. Can't blame the producer for the film, he's just feeding into the Stupidity that's profitable for him.

Back to that old argument, are we? In your view, are there any limits to when and where we should wage all out war? Should we just invade and occupy the entire non-Western world in the name of "liberation" and "spreading democracy?". Wow, we really did a god job of liberating Iraq from terror, didn't we?

Location, location, location. You can't fight terrorist from thousands of miles away.

We actually did a damn good job of liberating Iraq. Then came Obama...

You are fucking high. What a load of revisionist history bullshit.

There was a witness to the fight that backed up Kyle, except for the black eye part. It's SOOO hard to imagine that Ventura would not be spouting liberal bullshit about 9/11. Not Ventura....

Here are some of the comments Ventura has made:

He deserved to get punched.

I'm no Ventura fan, but this "witness" was obviously not very compelling or reliable for the judges hearing the case. But hey, I know you meatheads all have to defend each other and all.

Apparently, there were multiple witnesses that back Kyle:

The Burmtcher was a fictional character...

Well, we should all obviously go out of our way to celebrate a "warrior" who bragged about barroom brawls with B-list celebrities, anyway. What a cool guy.

Ventura has proven to be a conspiracy theorist idiot. Kyle and his friends were at the bar after a wake to remember their friend. Ventura was there for a different reason and started spouting off. Kinda stupid on Ventura's part. He deserved to be hit.

I don't want the wolf in my woods. I thank God for the shepherds. You should too! If it were not for them, we would have beheadings right here in the good ol USA! If it were not for them, you would not be able to voice your very ignorant opinion on this forum. BAAAAA

A warrior? Give me a break.

I agree. Liberals hate that they are dependent . Bringing it up hits a nerve of cowardice.

warriors "give you a break" daily. You are a jerk. And utterly clueless!

You have NO idea what these guys go through so you can sit on your ass and shoot off at the mouth! THEY PROTECT OUR FREEDOM! Michael Moore sure as hell isn't protecting anything but you people flock to him like he is God. That is what is wrong with our country, I bet your tune will change when/if you need our WARRIORS right here in the US!!

Sorry, but can you please explain how today's veterans are protecting our freedom of speech? They are (hopefully) protecting us from terrorists. And I thank them for that. But Iraq and Afghanistan are not threatening our freedom of speech. I'm tired of pretending that they are.

So snipers get to come home and kill people, beat people, and accuse the federal government of killing dozens of Americans without due process?

We ask them to do atrocious thinks to protect our county, lack the ability to manage mental illness when they return, then you sit iny our warm homes with your high speed internet and degrees you don't use judging them.

He was a simplistic minded person whose dichotomous view of the world (us good, them.bad, ooga booga) allowed him to take delight in killing other human beings. I absolutely feel comfortable criticizing people like him, including the mouth breathing opportunists in our government who led us into an unjustified war by exploiting the ignorant prejudices of people like him, and which accomplished nothing more than to make us less safe. Chris Kyle loved what he did; no one asked him to do shit. He's not MY hero.

Good. I am certain he would not wish to be your hero.

$107 million for American Sniper. I bet more blacks saw it than Selma. Oprah is on a downward trajectory and has lost the pulse of the people she once enthralled

I said the same thing to my husband. No one was buying tickets for Selma.
