This poor guy. Does his duty 4 times. Gets home and sets up a program for soldiers suffering with PTSD and gets shot for it.... I sulute men like this. Thanks for your service man ..
I'm a liberal and I thought American Sniper was great. I don't care what Chris Kyle did, or wether or not the movie was accurate. The film raises a good point. War isn't quite as black and white as people like to assume it is. It's a shame that soldiers who have seen so much violence don't get the help they need when they come back home.
Should we treat the Nazi's the same, they were soldiers. What about the soldiers that fight against an illegal occupation of their country, shouldn't they be also glorified
Question dumb arse, did America invade a country in an illegal war, question, did America kill innocent people, question, did America torture people, question, did America lie about weapons of mas distruction, question, do you want me to continue about the similarities... History lesson, lol
How is that the point of the movie? It's the definition of black and white. Terrorist versus our good ol' boys. It only shows he didn't necessarily enjoy shooting children but he managed anyway (his books say otherwise but none of you read so I guess you don't care.)
Once your out then your out. Miltary guys get treated just like everyone else , when cops pull them over they obey the cops, the cop might have some mercy on them if they show respect
God used this man righteously. Do not give the man credit for righteousness. He did his job and was taken out! Do not be deceived! NOTHING IS RANDOM? Question everything against The Word of God. (Consider the media hype and Chris’s ultimate blindness! Think it thru. His wisdom led to early death.) The wisdom of GOD IS THE ONLY WISDOM TO CONSIDER 🙏🔑✌️
This makes me furious when people say he enjoyed murdering people and was an evil man. Chris was one of the greatest men to ever join America's military!
Jimmie Price Doesn't change the fact that he enjoyed murdering people. Its one thing serving your country and doing your job, 99% of soldiers don't talk about what happens when they serve and go to tour. This guy boasts about killing children and adults. Theres a fine line on doing your job and enjoying murdering people
Roger Clemons That's what war does to you. Spend months over there with middle eastern arabs shooting at you and blowing your friends up and I imagine you aren't exactly gonna have a positive attitude towards them.
countless men women and children are dead : 9 11 2001 , the riots and continued destruction of 570 + and the violence continues in / on American streets, ... talk about war and snipers .
@@bodylanguageexpert6855 hahaha hahaha I was Chris's uncle by marriage at the time of his death and I assure you,he wouldn't try to overthrow the government. He would have been very angry about January 6th
I'm getting ready to go see American Sniper. Been watching interviews with Chris Kyle. What an amazing spirit and honorable man. I hate that he is gone. A true American hero. Never forgotten. God bless the Kyle family!
Boogie Knight wtf are you even talking about? Just watched the movie and it had everything to do with it. You're just a troll that didn't even see the movie
SalivateMetal You understand that Chris Kyle in Eastwood's movie could very well have been a Waffen-SS soldier, right? But Eastwood is a German-Hater and American Supremacist and he doesn't see how similar the War-Heroic dogma in a 'FREE' (...?!) country in 2001/2006/2009 is compared to Europe and Germany in 1933/1939/1942...? Total failure of Intellectualism
America is closer to National Socialism (without the bloodlust against the Jews) today than ever before and it's a sad thing. What Chris Kyle fought for was anything but. He fought to defend the values of what America is supposed to be about, that which is in our Constitution, the oldest in practice of it's time.
SalivateMetal But he showed no mercy, no remorse, no doubts, 'my' people first by whatever means necessary....that's pretty much what a fascist soldier soul is made of....no..?
If he saw such tough things in Iraq, it seems all iraqi citizens are 100x tougher than him and are in those conditions since 25 years. Do you consider them heros?
Gino Trotter You have a closed mind, i see what you are saying. but no i do not think they are heroes to an extant although i do think they are very strong and tough individuals to live there.
Lawrence Lepes. I am ok with that, but I don't like the way medias use his death. For his family, his brothers in arms, I am not sure they appreciate than people use their pain to sell paper and network performances. The gratitude we MUST have is a normal thing, but make his death a "trade mark", hurts me.
Great Job Chris. I'm an old Vietnam Vet. I spent from Jan 67-Aug 70 mostly in Country. There was no fan fare the 4 times I flew home for R&R or for additional training. I did not think of it at the time, but years later, as people started talking about coming home experiences, then it started to bother me a little. When I see the coming home celebrations on TV really brings tears and emotion out from somewhere deem inside me. Thank You Chris for your service, your mission, your words. BZ
He was wearing caps and shirt with a skull. In Europe he would instantly be charged with "racism" and got arrested.That said; I have a feeling the world lost a giant with Chris. He really stood up for his comrades and fought for what he believed to be right. And you can only admire such men. RIP Chris Kyle.
+Thor Son The SS murdered half my town in WWII, including my grandmother and aunt, so thanks for your consideration. However their symbol was a scull and cross bones, not Marvel Comics Punisher scull.
+WfBr_Polisch In Socialist Norway there was uproar in the media when Norwegian soldiers in Afghanistan wore Punisher skull patches on their uniforms in 2008 and brandished skull flags on their vehicles. The link to the ghost of Waffen SS proved to much for both the media and the politicians. - And therefore it is fascinating for a European to see Chris Kyle with skull patches openly on national TV.
Humble? He inflated his medal count and military reduced it posthumously Respectful? He committed slander by publicly lying about a Vietnam-era SEAL (Jesse Ventura) in order to promote his book sales
Ask any man who ever served. This man was an absolute legend. So is his family. If you want to dispute that, meet a veteran and stand face to face. I bet you shut the hell up.
+Matthew Neilson It's probably not entirely your fault that you missed the point...it required a level of inference that may you have been conditioned to avoid.
itscork That's kinda bull u can critique if u haven't fought but if u haven't fought then dont critique Chris IDK I'm tired I can't think of what I'm trying to say
With only a few seconds available, age reporter managed to say thank you for your service. Many people have a lot more opportunity but they fail to say it.
Chris kyle was a good, honorable man whose life was taken too soon. He deserves so much respect for the life he lived and the lives he positively impacted. May he rest in peace.
Snrub0800 Have you ever even met someone from the middle east ? probably not, It's pretty sad what propaganda can do to the weak minded. Don't believe everything you hear.
+2001Horatio where are you getting this information? I'm not sure I've ever read such bullshit. Spreading terror? Shooting doctors, nurses, people getting water? Seriously where are you getting your information?
Snrub0800 Of course they where trying to kill US soldiers, since the US was invading Iraq, Iraqi soldiers fighting for Sadam where just defending their country from an invading force, it wasn't their fault they had a bad leader. America murdered more then half a million people of which more then 150k civilians, that is 50 9/11's just civilians only. And the country only got worse, since US interference, this war was the main reason IS could strife in this region. So please tell me, who are the real savages here, the people defending their families, or the man killing about 200 of those people and then bragging about it in a book and on tv....
Rest In Peace, Chris Kyle. A true hero. War is not pretty, nor is preparing your mind for what is going to happen. Let's stop calling these people "Phobes". We did not fear religion or lifestyle. We fought against tyranny and terrorism.
@@collectableartifacts9642 You obviously don't know what it's like to defend your country. Try suiting up and doing this country some serious good instead of virtue signalling.
@@michaelcopple1736 Ill defend my Country from the inside! not the front lines which are strictly created to obey and follow orders. the bravest of men and woman who gave their life's for lies is astronomical. I don't know if you believe in God but the bible clearly says no killing and treat neighbor's with respect. this means only evil fights, love heals and restores. When was the last time a war happened in America? Did you know military people take oath to protect the nation from enemies foreign and domestic? but i guess that only applies when its a order of who that enemy is even if foreign or domestic. Don't speak to me again about moral's when you simply haven't been allowed to feel or be shown the truth. I stand with all service people who comit to put arms down, love ,and build a nation where everyone is included! the rest WILL Face the wraths of creator!
@@collectableartifacts9642 We were attacked in 9/11. I sat with my infant son and watched the twin towers fall that morning knowing I couldn't do anything about it because I had done my tour of duty in ODS. We fought a valid war against a country trying to send in people trying to cut heads off innocent Americans and it happened a lot back then. How old were you then? I fought Stateside against some things that were infiltrating our country on the border. How's that for lies. As for my walk with Christ, I am a Christian and King David was an all out warrior who fought many wars for his country. How about Moses, Abraham and a few others in the OT? War is sanctioned by God Himself. Read the Word from front to back as I have and you will learn quite a bit.
@@michaelcopple1736 I have never read the bible because the times i tried i felt like it was speaking in tongs. it was telling me "10 commandment" but also talked about sacrificing people and animals. thus long story short if our bible is a God or war that means its the God of a world that is in the process of being liberated to true love and identity of creator. all the people in the bible committed some serious "sins" thus their story isn't the way to live, Christ is and that's pure love for all!
Thank you- Patriots for you service and loyalty to you country ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸!!!!!! God bless you and God bless America 🙏!!!!!!!!!
Respect for this man right here too many ignorant people infested in this world, i dont care even if he was from a different country, ANYONE that is willing to put their life on the line and commit that life to saving their comrades asses deserves mad respect
Where would all of you be without people like Chris Kyle? You would be speaking either Arabic, Chinese, or German right now. The next time you sit back in your cozy chair and start up that cell phone and start chatting with your friends, remember you have all this because of the heroes who protect your right to your opinion.
Those are some pretty sweet languages though, and I can assure you learning them will not reduce your quality of life. Also, I'm not sure what your point is, the only force that actually threatened US civilians on American soil were the Russians, which you amusingly didn't list, and the US amusingly never fought.
We had nukes to fight Russia with. Because we were both superpowers is why we never fought Russia. These other countries might not have been huge threats in the 80s, but they are now. Well, except for Germany. Had Germany had its way all of Europe would have been speaking German and eventually the USA.
They don't need to be in afghanistan to protect us. Hell, they don't even need to kill anyone. Sometimes it's better to react than to act. All this hatred the Al-Qaeda has for the USA is because you interfered. Your government saw a threat where there was none. Why do you think more and more people join the Al-Qaeda? It's because western countries invaded their lands. There is no need for soldiers fighting in afghanistan, they are just increasing the hatred towards western countries. This is another pointless war like vietnam, the Al-Qaeda is no threat to the USA. Don't come with 9/11. Yes it was horrible, but in afghanistan that much people die every month and that is because of the war. US military could protect the USA on their own ground too, you know. You don't always need to invade other countries. And I'll repeat myself, all I said now is just true for certain situations, and I'm sorry, but people like Chris kyle aren't necessary to protect your homeland. And before you ask, WW2 is another story, because Nazi germany was WAY more powerful than Al-Qaeda and north vietnam. I'm willing to discuss this topic with you and no, I haven't been in a warzone, but you don't need to have combat expierience to know that this war is unnecessary. Awaiting your response :).
notmychannel1992 War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.
I love that hat and shirt. Chris was exactly the kind of man who could actually be The Punisher. As long as America has people like him willing to fight for us, our nation has a future.
Vendrix Who ever said I was in the force? And besides, you or I couldn't even dream of killing 160 people (at least), or missing a shot and seeing your friend slowly bleed to death from a 7.62 to the chest because of it. Don't even try to say you don't know anyone with problems. They can be good people. Kyle was a husband and a father , so even if you don't like him, would you really take a child's father because he lied to people? Again, you have obviously never lost a close parent, at least when you were close to them. Because that, I can tell you from experience, can have horrible effects, especially on children. I also never said you were voting for Hillary. But she's winning the polls, so be ready is all I can say.
It was truly a shame, but if you think about it, he was a person who wanted to serve, and thats exactly how he died, serving a Marine , serving another....I think if he couldn't go out serving with his Seal brothers, this would be the way he would want it to happen...just a thought
South African girly Saw the movie and have been reading up on every and anything about Chris Kyle, I can get my hands on. Think he was an amazingly brave and humble person. The world has lost a remarkable human being.
These comments are ridiculous. The men and women of the armed forces didn't sign up to fight for oil. They signed up to serve the country and protect it from terrorism. If you think a war in iraq was bad, then that is a failure of politics and politicians, not the servicemen and women of our country. Also, people who think oil somehow is only valuable to rich people are idiots. Oil is literally the lifeline of the global economy. Without an adequate supply of it, the world economy would literally grind to a hault. Oil is the heat in you house during the winter, the cold air in the house during the summer, the food on your table, your job, your everything. It is connected to everything we have and everything we do, and when you consider all the material resources nations have gone to war over in history, oil is probably the most significant resource to fight for. This is why we should become energy independent, and import the oil we have to from politically stable regions of the world. At the same time we should be working on alternative sources of energy in the long run in order to protect our planet.
I'll guarantee you one thing. If any of those idiots ever met a SEAL (or Delta operator, et al) in person they would suddenly become as polite as polite can be.
Salut to all the brave soldiers that served, sheded their blood and protect their familys. with all respect sympathy for the soldiers and their familys. we thank you all! Salut from Germany (please forgive my bad english)
+Double D I agree with the feelings thing, but I don't know what you mean about progressive education tactics. Did people not always live in a feelings based universe? I've always felt that the reality is we just think back and feel fully justified. So, our hindsight tells us things used to be more objective. Let's not forget that Aristotle formalized the first known list of fallacies about 2,400 years ago. Presumably they didn't just magically appear the week before he wrote them down. This has been a known human problem for a long, long time.
+Anguel Roumenov Bogoev I was amused by someone the other day.They were using logic to explain how cockroaches may be more useful to the natural environment than human beings.I thought that was a very interesting philosophy and wondered why the ancient Greek's had not come up with it.
As a Fellow B4H I can say that it's easy to sit back and judge him, your ass was not there, you do not know what it is like to deploy 1/2 way around the world engage and then come home like suppers ready go wash you hands. The things you see and feel never leave you. The trick is to not let those moments define you as a person. Chris I am sorry for you to have died like you did. Mrs. Kyle if you read this know that there are people out there that know Chris was a great man, and your a great woman for having his back all those years. God Bless you and your family.
- We as Americans need to realize that the Left have went full blown Satanic. It's not even politics any more. It is not "somewhat diff" ideas, 18% taxes vs 24% taxes. They are after the destruction of everything our country was built upon. They are trying to sell our country right underneath us. They are not satisfied with their accumulated multi millions. They want it all. We need to stop acting like "someday they'll understand". They won't. They're pedophiles, and worse. Realize we are in a war HERE. Get everyone out and vote! And get ready for the worst just in case. Thank you for your service and may God bless our Lady Liberty! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
The rustler of Ramadi understood it perfectly: "This is where I can unleash my psychopathic drive on humans, after having done it on birds, deer, etc." May the cosmic justice be merciful to him.
+ryan murphy I mean all countrys, but now that you mention it your right since its usually the u.s. at war all the time for the benefit of the gov. ussually
Laurence Buttler Yes they are barbians that need to be obliaterated by any means necessary. They need to be stopped immediately. And the bs rules of engagement are bs. I've talked to military personel, they are too scared to say it to the media but they all agree that a nuclear weapon should be used.
