Full title: **Want to shoot machine guns with the Navy SEAL who killed Osama bin Laden? That’ll be $50,000, please.**

Key contributors to a conservative group have received a special invitation: For $50,000, they can shoot guns and hang out this June with Robert O’Neill, the former Navy SEAL credited with killing al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.

The offer was recently made by the ForAmerica organization. Those invited have until May 10 to RSVP for an event at the Amangani Resort Hotel in Jackson Hole, Wyo.

So people like to live on the edge, in fact, they insist on it.

A lot better deal than giving $50,000 to the Clinton Foundation for Haiti relief.

That was my FIRST thought! $50k is NOTHING for the regime to shell out on a contract for a HIT MAN.

“Our event will consist of clay, pistol and ‘machine gun fun’ competitions with Rob O’Neill,” documents for the fundraiser say.

At this type of resort? Really? Well, why the heck not.

Not only is he probably crazy, he’s a flat out liar to boot.

I thought folks at FR were smarter to believe this stuff they’ve been spoon fed.

No, I don't want to shoot with him.

I want to see the body.

If they tieup the WaPo reporter for a target, they can quintuple the asking price

don’t know much about him but he sure seems to be cashing in on his celebrity status. Rather tacky IMO

something is amiss. I support him getting whatever help he needs. could be PTSD. Hope he’s not cashing in. Wouldn’t expect something like that from those guys. They are a cut above.

I have a friend, a film maker who lives on the edge, an adrenaline junky. Lost his leg in a helio crash on assignment, making this film [his partner died] ....https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Art+of+Flight+Official+Trailer&Form=VQFRVP#view=detail&mid=2DC1E77CB7C7EDD4EB402DC1E77CB7C7EDD4EB40

Robert O’Neill should find a new hobby, IMO.

It seems as if he is cashing in. But it seems to be the *thing* to do, these days.

E.g.: The parents [who were well compensated] keep dreaming up new ways of cashing in on the Newtown tragedy.
