How could Ventura’s reputation have been defamed? I can’t think of anyone who respects this guy, or even considers him normal.
Minnesota is a sewer. I know because I lived, there for ten LONG years. It’s those from out of state who get the real work done, and get treated like crap because they did not even go to junior high in Minnestoopid. Jesse Ventura is a typical Minnestoopidan, with his Minnestoopid junior high mentality. FUJV. FUMN. Stay out of TEXAS!
And to think Norm Coleman lost to both Ventura and Franken.
Well he will probably force poor Chris Kyle’s widow into bankruptcy. I hope he’s happy for awhile before he burns in Hell. What a POS!
His earnings power declined because he is a self-important, lying, idiot windbag who has no credibility.
Bitch ass faggot SEAL-pretending wannabe asshole.
Unless you were a cowardly piece of crap like Ventura - then you would, and maybe you would put some feathers in your hair to advertise your availability to other men, Ventura-style.<0>
Jefferson did not envision a jury composed of mouthbreathers too stupid to get out of jury duty.
A neighbor of mine was UDT in the 60s. He was always very careful in telling people he was a frogman and not a SEAL.
Kris Kyle told a blatant slanderous lie about a former soldier claiming that soldier believed other SEAL members deserve to die.
No matter what your opinion of Ventura is as a person if you are ok with this there is something seriously wrong with your judgement.
Foxnews, Megan Kelly and Bill O'rielly now look like complete fools. If they would have done 30 minutes worth of actual research on this case they would have known Ventura would win in court.
Local Dallas talk show host Chris Krok, who knew Chris Kyle personally just said today on his show he believed Jessie Ventura was wronged and the story was made up. He's right, and Kudos to him for stating the truth.
Even if what you say is true (first i heard of this was last night - I’m still checking it out), is it ok to go after a widow and get an obscene monetary award as punishment?
You really think that’s ok?
At the time, you didn't have to buy the book to read the anecdote. It was all over the news.
Ventura's spiteful and vengeful lawsuit against Chris Kyle's widow and children is shameful.
So is his 9-11 idiotic Trutherism.
Yes I do because a major portion of the money made off of the sales of the book is actually Venturas. He has lost his earning potential and Ventura has a family also. Do some research and I think you will find the publisher is the one who is really on the hook for the damages. The book earned 6 mil and the jury awarded 1.8 to Ventura, a pretty small sum considering Ventura will NEVER clear his name of this lie. The Widow is not going to be destitute as she will still reap most of the benefits from the sale of the book and possible movies deals etc.
Check out some of the video interviews with Jessie before the trial. The man was clearly destroyed by these allegations and it has been reported he made an offer to kyle and the publisher to clear the air for free and drop the case but they refused.
Things may have been completely different if the book would have claimed he just punched Ventura but when it was said on national television that Ventura said the SEALS need to lose a few, it left Ventura no choice but to seek to clear his name of this lie.
In Kyle’s own videotaped deposition he admitted that key parts of his story were false. I think a jury could reasonably conclude that all of it was false, especially since his witnesses not only contradicted each other but also Kyle.
You sticking up for a 9/11 Truther is an insult to all who died that day.
Jesse Ventura was a professional wrestler. he turned his own life into a joke. Nobody else.
I’ll bet the WWE is looking into bringing him back because of all this publicity. They both are scum.
I am confused, but that is because I have not looked into the minutiae of this story. I never heard about this altercation prior to Chris Kyle’s murder. Why did Chris Kyle punch Ventura? I did read on here yesterday that Kyle said to drop the Ventura story from his book, but the publisher wanted to leave it in.
Ventura looks like a doofus no matter what. And a real jerk.
I’m sorry. I have seen Ventura and his truther act.
The man is not stable. The man is not honorable. If he was “destroyed” by the allegations, as you maintain, then he needs professional help.
