[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can't we have nicer kinder snipers that appreciate art.[/quote]

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

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.

Of course Kyle had the right to write the book.  He chose to put it out there for whatever fame, glory , praise, criticism, discussion, and judgement that would bring.  Thousands of other vets chose not to do so.[/quote]

But yet all the vets are praising him for bringing light to a subject they don't feel feel sure about only because of public feeling.  Veterans are treated like garbage here in the US.  They are expected to come back and never mention a word and have a normal life.  PTSD, anxiety, depression, night terrors, shadow limbs, suicides.  That is not normal.    The only ones that are making a big deal about it are non-military liberals who think that combat is never the answer.

And other vets do write books, this is just the biggest current one out there right now. [/quote]

I never said other vets don't write books only that thousands don't.  Every vet like every other author is making the choice to put him or her self out there and they have every right to. Just because they have the right and freedom to put it out there does not mean they are free from criticism.

It's fine if you think he is a hero.  It's fine if someone else reads the book and decides he is not. [b]Just because they believe this about one individual does mean they are unpatriotic/"liberal"/"always against combat"/support veterans any less than you do.[/b][/quote]

But yet everyone here is saying that if you don't think MLK is a hero, you are racist.  [/quote]
