GUN CONTROL GROUP TARGETS CHRIS KYLE AND EASTWOOD’S AMERICAN SNIPER
The Coalition To Stop Gun Violence (CSGV) is targeting Clint Eastwood’s upcoming film, American Sniper, a movie which tells the story of American hero Chris Kyle.
Kyle served four tours in Iraq and had 255 confirmed kills. Mail Online reports that his longest kill was “a 2,100-yard strike against a man armed with a rocket launcher.” He was killed stateside on February 2, 2013, by a military vet suffering symptoms of PTSD.
According to the Washington Examiner, while Eastwood seeks to honor Kyle, CSGV has provided its supporters with a Facebook outlet where they could “rant” against the movie and the sniper. Regarding Kyle’s death, one wrote, “good riddance.” And another person wrote, “what goes around comes around.”
It’s as if they have no knowledge that Kyle was killing terrorists to protect our troops and our homeland.
