Kyle left the US Navy in 2009, and moved to Mid-Texas with his wife and two children. He now runs Craft International, which provides military and law enforcement sniper training, as well as private security and protection.[6][2] In 2012, Harper Collins released his autobiographical book American Sniper.[3][4] While promoting his book, Kyle claimed to have sucker punched Jesse Ventura in the nose at a popular Navy SEAL bar in Coronado, California in 2006 after, according to Kyle, Ventura had “badmouthed the troops.” Ventura released a statement on his Facebook page calling Kyle’s claims completely false, denying he said anything derogatory about the troops, and also denying Kyle’s claim of punching him in the face or even having met Chris Kyle. Some suspect Kyle has fabricated the story to gain publicity for his book tour or hoping for government contracts for his company.

It is like calling rape 6 years later.

As for the he said, he said it’s an often repeated situation and you believe who you want to believe...
but this SEAL hero has laid his life on the line for his country and IMO the less personal info out here on him, the harder it might be for the bad guys to get to him...
I know it’s easy to get this info - I just cringe when it’s put up on FR...just me.

The “I punched and ran” story doesn’t ring true.
