I mean wasn't it pretty well established his book partially fiction like that Million Little Pieces guy?


The Cop story and the Katrina thing were both pretty previously embellishments.

I'll wait to opine on this until I see enough bitching from veterans on this issue regardless of where they stand.

It's like he had a 10 inch dick but bragged it was 12 inches. The truth would,have been impressive enough, but some alpha bros have to always one-up everyone else.

Some of the same traits that made him succeed likely also made him exaggerate his record.

it's not listed because the medals were awarded on classified stuff. Ask anyone who knows.

Not saying it's not true but one guy who refuses to be named comes out years after a book and blockbuster movie and now suddenly wants to sling mud?

Chris Kyle is the Lance Armstrong of US Military.

To some, it doesn't matter what truths come out to show he is a fraud, he will always be a god.

To others it doesn't matter how bad arse he really was, because he wasn't 100% truthful he has no credibility.

Dying was the best thing Chris Kyle ever did. Good riddance to that TPOS.

So this dude claimed to be sniping fools from atop the superdome following Katrina?

Yet there are still four pages of boot lickers defending this douchebag's honor? When I see bros worship an obviously dishonest cat like this I start to finally understand how we as a Republican Party have managed to nominate Donald trump. Same sort of men and/or flock of followers IMHO.

Hey bub, he killed people in a pointless war then died himself by entrusting PTSD-riddled veterans with firearms. He's an American hero!

I'm not sure the need for bringing Luttrell into this. That guy is the definition of bad arse.

I realize some of yall don't have experience with Naval paper pushers but it is very believable that someone received an award and it didn't get inputted correctly or at all.

But as far as I'm concerned, if you go through what those two did, you can embellish anything you damn well please.


Wrong. Serving doesn't give you a blank check to profit off lies and embellish your record.

Still a liar though. Read Ed Darrack's book if you want the real story of Operation Red Wings.

Timothy McVeigh was decorated for valor from the Gulf War does that give him immunity too? It's a slippery slope once you start just giving vets blank checks on accountability because they served.
