But Mayher should show a little respect. This Kyle hate is really getting over the top the last few weeks.

If it wasn't for a sniper the United States may not have existed.
http://www.snipercountry.com/sniphistory.asp#Murphy

“On 7 October, 1777, Timothy Murphy, a rifleman in Morgan's Kentucky Riflemen shot and killed General Simon Fraser of the British army. Murphy was said to have taken the shot at roughly 500 yards. He was using the renowned Kentucky rifle. Fraser was leading a recon in force against the rebellious colonists at Bemis Heights in New York. As a result of Fraser's death, the recon failed. This had a direct impact on the overall battle, leading to the British defeat. The Battle of Saratoga was considered one of the turning points of the War for Independence.”

The British attack was disrupted and the Americans won. This battle showed that the Americans could win against the British and was the catalyst for French entry into the war.

Mahrer is decidedly against anything, so long as it makes him money.

Bill you sleep soundly in your bed because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do you harm.

When Kyle referred to savages, he wasn't talking about the Iraqi people in general. He was talking about the animals who were suicidal and murderous extremists who were willing to sacrifice their own children for nothing.

Collateral damage, or whatever you want to call it: every single drop of innocent blood that has been shed in Iraq, Afghanistan, or anywhere else in the Islamic world, is on the hands of the extremists— whether it was Saddam's former thugs, or the blind demonic zealots who want to impose totalitarian theocracy on their Muslim brethren all over the globe.

Those are the "savages" Kyle was referring to, not peaceable Iraqis.

The propaganda of the hysterical Left is absurdly clumsy. People like Bill Maher and his ilk alienate two people for every one they succeed in deceiving.

The people Kyle was talking about were and are savages, every last one of them, and everyone with a brain knows exactly who he meant when he said that. Kyle didn't hate average Iraqis, the vast majority of whom are decent human beings.

Anyone who has seen the movie would know this.

Remember the scene where Kyle had just eliminated an adult who had just tried to use an RPG launcher?

After Kyle took out the adult, a young boy picked up the launcher and, for a few moments, considered using it. Kyle had the kid in his crosshairs and was praying out loud that the kid would put the damn thing down.

Indeed, in the scene, Kyle waited too long: he gave the kid enough time to fire the RPG! He gave that kid every merciful moment he deserved, and more. Then, when the kid finally decided to put the weapon down without using it, Kyle practically broke down with relief that he didn't have to shoot him.

The realities of the war over their were much more nuanced than the infantile cut-and-dried propaganda that Maher and his Leftist ilk would have us believe.

Anyone who takes the time to watch the film or read the book would instantly know that.

Thus, the divisive, transparent, agenda-driven spin of the Left is fooling very few people. In fact, the Left makes itself look more and more ignorant with each hysterical lie they try to spread...

If he is against using military snipers to kill the terrorists, would he prefer that we kill the terrorists by bombing entire villages instead?

Visualize Bill Maher’s forehead centered in the crosshairs as 175 grains of M118 Long Range Ball punches a hole. Instantly, Bill Maher becomes an invisible soul. Hoo-yah!

I would not urinate in Mahers sphincter, if his intestines were on fire!
