The American Sniper Was No Hero

Rubbish. Not worth reading.
An eloquent elaboration of why libertarianism is traitorous selfish and in league with anti Americanism.
WE..the American NATION have always been a Nation of Laws.....thats why we LOVE IT!
some people miss this stuff and rush off the the first illogical conclusion they can find..
taking a concept and misrepresenting it entirely...is the sign of a weak mind
These people would have us unilaterally eliminate love of our country. Surely a recipe for national destruction.
Self hatred is a bitter poison, right?
Wow, what a load of crap.
I am, and have always been, a staunch nationalist. IMO most of those who decry nationalism are UN communists. They hate nationalism because it is an obstacle to their One (communist) World ideal.
To claim that my love of country is at the same time a hate of other countries is an illogical lie.
The European Union is a good example of the despotism exerted by just the sort as this author. This socialist despotism is superior to defending one’s country from....European socialist despots?
I no longer argue logic with these LibTard pinheads. I now tell them to kiss off, you want my freedom, come see if you can take it.
The author is correct, in one respect – “Nationalism” (as he considers it) seems to evoke a deep hatred and venom in this person against his own countrymen & particularly those who would selflessly defend his right to utter such garbage.
Far as I’m concerned the guy drilling holes into kids is more than enough reason not only to shoot the scum from rooftops, but to take military action in their country in the first place.
All these people see today is a territory of resources to exploit, and an indigenous peope who are in their way. In order to overthrow them, they must first disconnect them from their history by making nationalism a sin.

Dear Mr. Richman, ( and I use the term “Mr.” loosely because I am not sure that you deserve it, ) if not nationalism then what? Internationalism? No nationalism at all? What?
Idiot!
Liberty can only exist under the protection of a strong nation.
This dude sounds like a leftist. Who but lefties use phrases like "the Other"?
He should be encouraged to leave!
Indeed, nationalism is toxic and tends to cause wars, but so is its opposite, internationalism, which has motivated quite a lot of wars and murder in several of its guises down the years.
As in all things in the fallen world, striking the right balance and falling off the royal road neither on the left nor on the right is tricky.
"Breathes there a man with soul so dead
Who never to himself hath said:
'This is my own, my native land'?
Whose heart hath ne'er within him burned
As home his footsteps he hath turned,
From wandering on a foreign strand?
If such there breathe, go mark him well;
For him no minstrel raptures swell;
High though his titles, proud his name,
Boundless his wealth as wish can claim;
Despite those titles, power and pelf,
The wretch concentred all in self,
Living, shall forfeit fair renown,
And, doubly dying, shall go down
To the vile dust from whence he sprung,
Yet another parasite crapping on our nation and those who defend us.
All right, douche. You hate your country. You hate the men and women who stand their watches on the wall and defend your pathetic ass. That’s OK. You’re free to do that. But a lot of us — millions, judging by the success of the movie — don’t. And just as you’re free to hate it and run it down, we’re free to stand and salute it.
So shut your whiny, sniveling, chickensh-t blowhole and let us go about our business. Or risk getting a fist pushed down your throat when you shoot your mouth off to the wrong guy at the wrong time.
Nationalism *may* indeed be a poison, but internationalism is decay and death itself.
Nations exist for reasons. Internationalism is unnatural, and is forced on people to their detriment. Internationalists are scoundrels and tyrants who hate the very idea of nations.
I saw American Sniper last night. What a fantastic movie! It was about strong families, love of God, love of country, strong fathers mentoring and loving thier wives and children. It also showed dads hunting with thier kids and exhibiting loving disclipline. It showed strong self-sacrifice for others. In other words, it was everything libs hate about us. Clint Eastwood did a fantastic job!
