They loom over him, brandishing their weapons, their gaze steady. The sculptor can feel the presence of the heroes he honors in clay and bronze, U.S. Navy SEALs all.
And all of them gone.
“I am an intuitive artist. I believe and I feel that their spirits are in the room when I am working, and that they’re helping me finish that work,” said Greg Marra, a Florida sculptor who is a man on a mission. He is determined to tell the stories of fallen American warriors.
“I know it sounds crazy, but I feel their presence. That’s what happens when you’re creating a life-sized image of someone.”
Mr. Marra has focused attention on Chris Kyle — a SEAL sniper who was gunned down this year on a Texas shooting range — along with Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, former SEALs killed during the 2012 terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya. Also on the ever-expanding list of subjects: Adam Brown, one of 17 SEALs who died in the 2011 crash of a CH-47 Chinook helicopter in Afghanistan that killed an additional 13 Americans.

But, but... Tea Party members are supposed to be Christian terrorists / anarchists who wouldn’t do something like that. It’s true because the Left / liberals / progressives said so. Funny how all Tea Party members work for a living, pay their taxes, and are non-violent while the opposite is true about much of the Left.

Sad to say, this’ll go nowhere. The whole thing must stay down 0muslim’s rabbit hole, with all his other impeachable crimes, massive corruption and scandals. The treasonous lib-dem filth will find a way to block it.
Adam Brown, one of 17 SEALs who died in the 2011 crash of a CH-47 Chinook helicopter in Afghanistan that killed an additional 13 Americans.
WRONG! Adam Brown died in a gunfight in 2010.
Members of SEAL Team SIX that were in that gunfight were killed in the Extortion 17 crash -— including a FReeper.
FYI
I knew I was seeing things...I mistook the work sculpture, for scripture. I should have known better, seeing as how the Tea Party is atheistic secularist and simply uses the religious conservatives for undeserved power.
