Shooting dozens of "looters" from the rooftops of New Orleans would not put you amongst society's defenders, it would put you amongst society's mass murderers. Lying about shooting "looters" from the rooftops of New Orleans does not make you a brave vigilante, it makes you a lying braggart who is desperate to have everyone around you acknowledge how totally badass you are. You can't beat your dick to Chris Kyle's heroism, because in Chris Kyle's fantasies he is a villain. You can't beat your dick to Chris Kyle's "manliness", because attention-whoring with a bunch of lies about how your life is an action film is straight-up pathetic. I seriously don't fucking get it. Is Robert Lee Yates one of those brave sheepdog? Is Manuel Pardo? Daniel Pantaleo? George Zimmerman? What, exactly, makes your manpanties drop? Is it the uniforms? Is it vigilantism? Is it murdering the underprivileged? Or is it - and I think it is - a shallow infatuation with the bravado?

There's this segment of the population, usually extremely conservative, that would think anyone shooting 'looters' from the roof of the Superdome would be a hero. Tea Party types, really. The ones who get stiffies about the idea of a government shutdown. So I suppose it's aimed at him.
And now anyone who talks about the Kyle's lying lies, will be disbelieved because they want to believe that he's a Troo Conservative Hero, and that Obama's an atheist muslim communist antichrist, and that All Government Is Bad and all.

He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

I don't suppose there's a convenient source for the things people have mentioned about Chris Kyle that I can link to when other people talk about American Sniper, is there?
