So, the more I read into “American Sniper” the more seriously disturbing it is. The man’s own memoirs (on which the movie is based) tell a lot of unusual stories, many false and many disturbing.

The man’s obsession with killing- not the job, but just killing and accumulating his kills...

Get out of America and get the facts straight, not offline. You’re a coward.

I’m not sure how publicly challenging the narrative of a blockbuster movie written about an incredibly popular war hero who’s received lots of great...

From the article:

The film American Sniper, based on the story of the late Navy Seal Chris Kyle, is a box office hit, setting records for an R-rated film released in January. Yet the film, the autobiography of the same name, and the reputation of Chris Kyle are all built on a set of half-truths, myths and outright lies that Hollywood didn’t see fit to clear up.

Here are seven lies about Chris Kyle and the story that director Clint Eastwood is telling:

1. The Film Suggests the Iraq War Was In Response To 9/11: One way to get audiences to unambiguously support Kyle’s actions in the film is to believe he’s there to avenge the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The movie cuts from Kyle watching footage of the attacks to him serving in Iraq, implying there is some link between the two.

2. The Film Invents a Terrorist Sniper Who Works For Multiple Opposing Factions: Kyle’s primary antagonist in the film is a sniper named Mustafa. Mustafa is mentioned in a single paragraph in Kyle’s book, but the movie blows him up into an ever-present figure and Syrian Olympic medal winner who fights for both Sunni insurgents in Fallujah and the Shia Madhi army.

3. The Film Portrays Chris Kyle as Tormented By His Actions: Multiple scenes in the movie portray Kyle as haunted by his service. One of the film’s earliest reviews praised it for showing the “emotional torment of so many military men and women.” But that torment is completely absent from the book the film is based on. In the book, Kyle refers to everyone he fought as “savage, despicable” evil. He writes, “I only wish I had killed more.” He also writes, “I loved what I did. I still do. If circumstances were different – if my family didn’t need me – I’d be back in a heartbeat. I’m not lying or exaggerating to say it was fun. I had the time of my life being a SEAL.” On an appearanceon Conan O’Brien’s show he laughs about accidentally shooting an Iraqi insurgent. He once told a military investigator that he doesn’t “shoot people with Korans. I’d like to, but I don’t.”

I’d insert a read more but I’m on mobile

Chris Kyle is a good portion of what is wrong with this country.

He goes over to Iraq with some bullshit notions about god and USA, kills 160 people, then comes back and has the gall to say that he doesn’t regret a single death (like any good fucking...

I hate the damn savages. I couldn’t give a flying fuck about the Iraqis.

4. The Real Chris Kyle Made Up A Story About Killing Dozens of People In Post-Katrina New Orleans: Kyle claimed that he killed 30 people in the chaos of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, a story Louisiana writer Jarvis DeBerry calls “preposterous.” It shows the sort of mentality post-war Kyle had, but the claim doesn’t appear in the film.

5. The Real Chris Kyle Fabricated A Story About Killing Two Men Who Tried To Carjack Him In Texas: Kyle told numerous people a story about killing two alleged carjackers in Texas. Reporters tried repeatedly to verify this claim, but no evidence of it exists.

6. Chris Kyle Was Successfully Sued For Lying About the Former Governor of Minnesota:Kyle alleged that former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura defamed Navy SEALs and got into a fight with him at a local bar. Ventura successfully sued Kyle for the passage in his book, and a jury awarded him $1.845 million.

7. Chris Kyle’s Family Claimed He Donated His Book Proceeds To Veterans’ Charity, But He Kept Most Of The Profits: The National Review debunks the claim that all proceeds of his book went to veterans’ charities. Around 2 percent – $52,000 – went to the charities while the Kyles pocketed $3 million.

American Sniper is the most disgusting war propaganda since the 1940s.

look at Bradley Cooper pretending to love that piece of plastic. I hope they show this scene at the Academy Awards so, win or lose, everyone will appreciate how hard he’s working. He’s acting for two!

But let’s talk about how terrible American Sniper is, as a movie.

I just read your point of view about Chris Kyle and I would really like to know more about him to see the lengths of what this man did during his years in service for the military. I went on Google and looked him up but there was a lot of bias stuff about him like when they stated he hated the Iraqis and didn't care who he killed and yet they still said he was a an amazing war hero. Can you please request me some websites that state facts and details that are not biased toward Chris Kyle.

America has this tradition of honoring mass murders and war criminals .

In his memoirs (American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History ) , he says ”“Their high-pitched screams, coupled with sprints in the opposite direction, had me doubled over. Cheap thrills in Iraq were priceless.” referring to driving very fast and trying to run over innocent Iraqis .

here are other ” heroic ” quotes :

* “I hate the damn savages. I couldn’t give a flying fuck about the Iraqis.”

"I wish I’d killed more"

Kyle described killing as “fun”, something he “loved”

In the book, Kyle refers to everyone he fought as “savage, despicable” evil. He writes, “I only wish I had killed more.” He also writes, “I loved what I did. I still do. If circumstances were different – if my family didn’t need me – I’d be back in a heartbeat. I’m not lying or exaggerating to say it was fun. I had the time of my life being a SEAL.” On an appearance on Conan O’Brien’s show he laughs about accidentally shooting an Iraqi insurgent. He once told a military investigator that he doesn’t “shoot people with Korans. I’d like to, but I don’t.”

This is the line of over a hundred people waiting to see American Sniper tonight at my local theater. And I am absolutely sickened. I am here to see Selma, a movie about a real hero, but no one is in line for this movie. American Sniper is a movie that promotes violence, war, racism, and intollerance. It is based off of a book, but twists the stories of the book to craft a more entertaining story, i.e. the creation of the antagonist enemy sniper who Chris Kyle faces off against so much in the movie. It also paints Chris Kyle as a remorseful, war torn, anguished soul, when in fact his only regret, as he said himself in his book was that ‘[he] hadn’t killed more’. Chris Kyle killed women and children and unarmed civilians who were all residents of a country which posed no risk to America, our assets, or our people and freedom. I am speaking of course of Iraq, the country we should’ve never even entered, but did on the false pretense of them posessing weapons of mass destruction. It was quickly proved that they did not possess any WMD’s. Yet this movie defends that war, and paints Chris Kyle as a hero defending America, and its freedom from the, and i quote “savages” we faced in Iraq. I am personally vehemently opposed to seeing this film, and suggest everyone boycott it. But as you can see above, that won’t be happening any time soon in this country. But maybe we can make something happen about it.
