I was in New Orleans in a patrol vehicle and there were no snipers picking off people from the dome. He was full of shite.

Nuh uh!!! Chris Kyle was up there. With a spotter. Shot at least 30. Then killed another 10 with throwing stars on his way down. The he punched out Ventura. On his way home he killed a couple car jackers.

skimmed through his book and watched the movie. When I read that he shot people off the Super Dome, I put the book down. I knew there was no point in reading the rest.
What book are you talking about? There's nothing like that in American sniper or his history of guns book.

Somebody shot at least 1 bad guy. You want me to give you a day? It wasn't Monday, August 29th and it wasn't Friday September 2nd. My best guess is Wednesday, August 31st, but I could be off 1 day or the other.
Nah, not that concerned about it. I was just there doing ems for a day. Next 2 days we left the dome and went to 9th ward and did rescue. I had nothing to do with military or law enforcement.

FWIW, I think the guy was a Great War hero. With that said, he was prob a little off too. I'm not sure what context the Superdome stuff was said but I'm sure whatever he saw pissed him off and he went on a make believe rant. Not saying anyone got picked off, but I'd imagine with the National Guard called in and the chaotic environment, I'd imagine the military did strategically have snipers deployed in case shite hit the fan.
It originally came from an interview Kyle gave to SOFREP.
quote:LINK
Not long after the radio-show appearance, Kyle was contacted by Brandon Webb, a veteran who had served with him on seal Team Three. Webb, now the editor of sofrep, a Web site covering special-operations forces, invited Kyle and another former seal to participate in a taped discussion about life as a special operator. Webb asked Pat Kilbane, an actor, to moderate the discussion. Kyle met them at a bar in San Diego to tape the program.
The session went well. Kilbane told me that he was struck by Kyle’s “aura,” noting that whenever “he walked in the room the dynamic would change, the energy in the room would shift.” Afterward, a larger group went out for dinner, closed the hotel bar, and hung out in Kyle’s suite, drinking until late. The seals began telling stories, and Kyle offered a shocking one. In the days after Hurricane Katrina, he said, the law-and-order situation was dire. He and another sniper travelled to New Orleans, set up on top of the Superdome, and proceeded to shoot dozens of armed residents who were contributing to the chaos. Three people shared with me varied recollections of that evening: the first said that Kyle claimed to have shot thirty men on his own; according to the second, the story was that Kyle and the other sniper had shot thirty men between them; the third said that she couldn’t recall specific details.
Had Kyle gone to New Orleans with a gun? Rumors of snipers—both police officers and criminal gunmen—circulated in the weeks after the storm. Since then, they have been largely discredited. A spokesman for U.S. Special Operations Command, or socom, told me, “To the best of anyone’s knowledge at socom, there were no West Coast seals deployed to Katrina.” When I related this account to one of Kyle’s officers, he replied, sardonically, “I never heard that story.” The seal with extensive experience in special-mission units wondered how dozens of people could be shot by high-velocity rifles and just disappear; Kyle’s version of events, he said, “defies the imagination.” (In April, Webb published an article on sofrep about the incident, but took it down after concluding that Kyle’s account was dubious.)
Perhaps this story, like the one about the gas station, contains a kernel of truth. Both narratives, however, portray Kyle as if he really were the Punisher, dispensing justice by his own rules. It was possible to see these stories as evidence of vainglory; it was also possible to see them as attempts by a struggling man to maintain an invincible persona. Kilbane, having read Kyle’s book, knew about his drinking habits and his battles with combat stress. Watching Kyle put down pint glass after pint glass of whiskey-on-the-rocks, he said, “It made me think there were still demons bouncing around in there.”
It was said in the context of Kyle being drunk and running his mouth (something that 99.99% of males do) and the journalist that original wrote article should have done more fact checking before posting. However with that being said, Kyle lied about a lot of things, but if you read or study his behaviors and especially his drinking habits there are multiple clues to him having some underlying mental problems. He was a SEAL sniper (that is fact no one can dispute) and exposed to enough stress and trauma to cause problems. Telling his tales might have been a coping mechanism or it could have been a symptom of the underlying mental stress, but we'll never know for sure.

The story of how he died is probably full of shite
Baw, my dad was there the night it happened, only an hour or so afterwards .Now a retired US Marshall and Texas Ranger. It happened exactly how it is known to have happened. I work in the media and convered all that shite, including the trial.
The rest may be bullshite, but to say he didn't die that way, especially when you weren't likely in the area or saw the scene, or know people who worked on the case is bull shite.

The court vacated the judgment in part by citing a line of questioning and statements made by Ventura's counsel about the insurance policy covering Kyle's book, published by HarperCollins. In particular, statements that any money awarded to Ventura would be paid by the insurance policy, rather than Kyle's family, were "improper and prejudicial," according to the new ruling.
How is that not grounds for an immediate mistrial. That's just dumb
