Noted Sniper Shot Dead At Texas Gun Range

A second man dies along with Chris Kyle, who wrote 'American Sniper.' A suspect has been arrested, but the motive is unclear.

February 3, 2013

GLEN ROSE, Texas— Former Navy SEAL and “American Sniper” author Chris Kyle was fatally shot along with another man Saturday on a Texas gun range, a sheriff told local newspapers.

Erath County Sheriff Tommy Bryant said Kyle, 38, and a second man were found dead at Rough Creek Lodge's shooting range west of Glen Rose, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and Stephenville Empire-Tribune. Glen Rose is about 50 miles southwest of Fort Worth.

Bryant did not immediately return phone calls to The Associated Press seeking comment late Saturday and early Sunday. A woman who answered the phone at the lodge where the shooting occurred declined comment and referred calls to the sheriff's office.

Investigators did not immediately release the name of the second victim, according to the newspapers.

Witnesses told sheriff's investigators that a gunman opened fire on the men around 3:30 p.m. Saturday, then fled in a pickup truck belonging to one of the victims, according to the Star-Telegram. The newspapers said a 25-year-old man was later taken into custody in Lancaster, southeast of Dallas, and that charges were expected.

Lancaster police did not immediately return calls for comment.

The motive for the shooting was unclear.

Kyle wrote the best-selling book, “American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History,” detailing his 150-plus kills of insurgents from 1999 to 2009.

Kyle was sued by former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura over a portion of the book that claims Kyle punched Ventura in a 2006 bar fight over unpatriotic remarks. Ventura says the punch never happened and that the claim by Kyle defamed him.

Kyle had asked that Ventura's claims of invasion of privacy and “unjust enrichment” be dismissed, saying there was no legal basis for them. But a federal judge said the lawsuit should proceed. Both sides were told to be ready for trial by Aug. 1.A second man dies along with Chris Kyle, who wrote 'American Sniper.' A... more

Guns Vs NO Guns....Collective vs. individual rights ... States vs Gov. Gov. vs. Global

I light of the debate I have to make clear the direction of thought.... your children are killed by assault rifles everyday as long as there is war and individualism vs collectivism... we are at a point where we can have Rights or become free radical and have none!!!
this is a reply to an individual who I received a message from, but it sums it up pretty well...before I post it here... we must understand, just as one state wants to ban guns(banning one bans them all -refer to following) we must not think we are individual to the whole- victim-family-race-religion-town-county-state-country-continent-planet...now unless we govern ourselves accordingly nothing will work against the outside influences...please read, Earthwalker.

There is no verses...the vs. is where the chain is broken and the thought becomes lineal... its easy to think of self ...its nearsightedness of the mind... I am writing more in this direction for people are being misdirected and the mis direction is a polar shift to the self rather the whole ...cancer is the perfect example of this....it is one cell that does things on its own indirectly of the whole over replicating to a fault...Its hard to treat because it cannot be distinguished from the whole....I want to stop for a moment and return to the misdirection...for we can go through a whole debate on cutting the cancer ...etc... and I am trying to keep focus in the broad spectrum...It is known that a gongs vibration kills cancer cells...take a moment to hear me out ... the gong is shaped and formed and this is important, when the gong sits at rest the molecules of the metal are aligned, when it is struck the molecules vibrate throughout the gong there is no lineal point to escape the force moves to the outer rim then ...here is the miraculous part ...in order to restore homeostasis(equilibrium)...the force concentrates to the center ...and in its concentrated power it tries to move back to the rim but it cannot for the collective molecules are behind it and the energy is forced to release from the gong and into the atmosphere ....while all this is happening the gongs collective form is like holding hands fighting to keep together against the strike or the outside influence...this bonding is all that keep it together otherwise it is just molecules of ...whatever the composition of the metal is..and would disperse like powder or water...while the force travels the opposing attraction of the one as a whole is mirrored and the force takes this shape..and this alignment is super imposed on the air and objects around the gong.The molecules of the body standing near it, including the cancer cells in that body would accelerate the the rhythm of alignment...correcting its individualism giving the original shape (also referred to as original thought of the creator) back to the whole.
there are ramifications of self overcoming the alignment...in the gong it cracks rendering it useless and in the body we all know how it ends with cancer.

To summarize we have
a) an individual that is the sum of one but one is the collective and the collective one
b) the Law of equilibrium (natural law)
c) an outside force (the strike from the mallet)
D) The bonding of the collective or attraction(another natural law) one might even go so far as even calling it love...for we love to exist. but lets keep it simple.

an individual removed from the collective is a free radical free radicals cause death and destruction.

individuals recognition to the whole and its attraction to the whole gives life to the whole and the whole is one bound by original thought (attraction...or Love to be part of the whole)

its such a large view of things its difficult to see it even with the images of the mind but I have tried my best to give an illustration.

with the best of intentions and friendly Debate ...EARTHWALKERI light of the debate I have to make clear the direction of thought.... your children... more
