Chris Kyle, sniper…
You have to applaud anyone who survives special operations training — it’s tough in every way. Most people are uncomfortable around snipers, even service personnel. Most military outfits began assigning spotters to snipers so that the shooters wouldn’t have to work alone or bear any guilt alone. I watched Kyle on The Factor the other night, and O’Reilly made a point of asking the SEAL how he dealt with having killed so many people. His answer was that he was killing these savages to protect the others, and that the only thing which bothered him was those he had failed to save.
Jesse Ventura was at the wake of Michael Monsoor, saying the Iraqi was was bad and the SEALs deserved to lose some of their own. If I had been there I would have knocked down the loudmouth former governor myself.

If that is true, won’t hospitals be in violation if they require an advanced degree for a neurosurgeon?
