So many simple people think its this imaginary "conservative vs Liberal" thing like its a football game and people can either be one or the other lol. What a prehistoric way of thinking, things are not black and white like this at all.
I love violence myself, but to envy some guy and call him a hero because he entered another nation and killed its countrymen on their own land , then call anyone who doesn't agree with that a fucking "liberal", like calling them 'unamerican or non patriotic' in their own little way, almost as to indicate a failure lol. Such a non forward redneck simpleton way of thinking that should be beaten to death along with all religion.
The bigger issue is that Chris Kyle probably came back after the war with more problems than before he went in. And I just read that the government is now cutting some programs/funding for the VA or something like that. Don't know the exact details.
So, instead of Americans caring about the huge issue of our troops coming back totally screwed up (mentally and physically), coupled with government cuts, all they can care about is praising his movie and book. All they care is that he killed a bunch of people. But where are these same people protesting against government cuts? Where are these people advocating for better military care after the troops come home all fucked up? Not around. They only care that he killed. Once he's home, forget him and his care. Seems like these same red-blooded, die hard, wave flagging Americans are nowhere to be found.
Most of the people who continue to advocate for good VA care are past ex-military personnel. The average American who was waving their flag when Chris Kyle was killing is now MIA.
Very patriotic.
