Last night the wife and I were talking about Chris Kyle. She was reading on the internet about him, and came across somethings people were saying about him.
She came across people saying things like. He was an "American Terrorist" , and "He got what he deserved" or "he got what was coming to him".
Now I'd like to think these were just comments made by some Taliban supporter. I hate to think it is just some everyday misguided American. I am unsure of where she read this nor do I care. If I would have joined this conversation I would have been banned and my voice not counted anyway. It sickens me that that kind of meadly mouthing ignorant bs is allowed to be said in this country with no repercussion.
Don't get me wrong I love our freedoms and rights. When someone speaks those words about one of our Heros there should be a consequence. It is people like Chris Kyle that make this the greatest country in the world, and allow us to keep our freedoms.
I am not so nieve to think that our Government always tells us the truth. I don't think we should always go along with what they tell us. Although someone casting their derogatory comments against our Veterans should be considered some sort of act of treason.
Our society has become soft and considerate of every ones opinion whether it be positive or negative. I don't feel these people understand what is means of us to have these rights and freedoms. They will never put their selves in harms way for other Americans that they have never met. The only thing they will stand for is what directly betters them, like $20 minimum wage and legalizing pot.
Is this the direction of our Country? To deface the goodness of our Military men and women. Are we going back to the 70's to call they "baby killers"? I for one need not hear any of these words coming out of someones mouth in person. It would not be a good day for either of us.
I think I'm done for now.
