Location: Displaced Iowegian | sorrel horse ranch - 2014-07-30 1:46 PM Scum bag! I read Kyle's book and do not remember anything about Jesse Ventura being mentioned. I don't believe that he did mention him, by name, in his book only called him the scruff bag (or something like that....Later, in interviews, he used his name after interviewers used it.......Right or wrong legally, the right thing for Ventura to do, would have been to dismiss the case upon the man's death......

Location: Kansas | Tailwind - 2014-07-30 11:42 AM I have seen him interviewed on other shows also, personally, I don't really know him, but he seems like a pretty sorry human being with a terrible attitude.
Also looks like he could use a bath..........

| Sorry but I can't get past him being a WWF wrestler and worrying about his reputation........that's pretty funny to me right there. He should have dropped the suit when the man was killed. Now he looks like a real jerk. |

Google Chris Kyle. It happened at a shooting range by a mentally ill person. Kyle has the most unconfirmed sniper kills in history. I think he served 4 or 5 tours overseas.  |

He has the most confirmed kills in US history, PLUS many more unconfirmed/classified/whatever kills.
The book is AMAZING. |

There's a memorial edition with passages from Taya, friends, fellow warriors, etc. It's a little more expensive than the first edition, but well worth it. Excellent book that I'll definitely read again.

You may also want to check out another book by Chris; American Gun: A History of the U.S. in Ten Firearms. They both look great and I plan on getting them both.

Location: Somewhere between raising hell and Amazing Grace | Jesse Ventura is a disgrace to the human race. Plain and simple. It takes a very sick person to sue a widow trying to raise children without a father.
I am very confident that she will be fine though. Because I can't imagine that if the need arises, there will be plenty of people to support her.
Yes, buy the book. Please. |

| The book was a very good read. Definitely some insight into what our military personnel go through on a daily basis. And I try to remember it can always be worse when I want to complain about something. Jesse Ventura was a blip on my radar before I read the book and he continues to be a blip on my radar post book reading. His reputation was already in place before any words were written by Chris Kyle. |
