But I haven&#8217;t. I&#8217;ve been staring at an empty screen for more than two hours wondering what I could write. I never met Chris Kyle, but after reading his book, you get a sense that you have met him.<\/p>\n<p>But, last night, I got a call from someone who wanted us to help the police find Kyle&#8217;s killer. I was stunned when he gave me the news. I have no idea who it was that called, but he had access to police message traffic, so, you know, I can guess. So I called the sheriff&#8217;s department and they confirmed for me that the incident had indeed happened, but they wouldn&#8217;t confirm that Kyle was involved.<\/p>\n<p>But, anyway, I guess they caught Eddie Routh, Kyle&#8217;s killer. According to some of our Marines with access to the Marines On Line database, Routh is a corporal and a unit armorer and currently in the Individual Ready Reserve &#8211; that status you do before you get out of the service.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/2013\/02\/03\/navy-seal-chris-kyle-fatally-shot-at-texas-shooting-range-report-says\/\">Fox News<\/a>, Routh was apprehended near Lancaster, TX at about 9:30 local time last night after shooting Kyle and his neighbor in the back and fleeing the scene in a pickup belonging to one of his victims, according to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.star-telegram.com\/2013\/02\/02\/4595767\/top-navy-seal-sniper-killed-on.html\">Fort Worth Star-Telegram<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Now, if you don&#8217;t want to get pissed off, you should stop reading here. I cruised over the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2013\/02\/02\/chris-kyle-dead_n_2608772.html\">Huffington Post<\/a> and read some of the comments those tiny-brained morons were leaving and, of course, it&#8217;s all about gun control and veterans. And of course, they tell us that Kyle&#8217;s death was karma for killing more than 150 insurgents. <a href=\"http:\/\/twitchy.com\/2013\/02\/03\/twisted-ghouls-descend-on-murder-victim-chris-kyle\/\">Twitchy<\/a> logged some of the &#8220;tweets&#8221; from the Leftist ghouls yesterday celebrating the death and standing on his body for their political agenda. <\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s an example;<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n<center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=33968\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-33968\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Kyle-Tweets-300x245.jpg\" alt=\"Kyle Tweets\" width=\"300\" height=\"245\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-33968\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Kyle-Tweets-300x245.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/Kyle-Tweets.jpg 633w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since I knew about it before most people, you&#8217;d think I&#8217;d have dealt with it by &hellip; <a title=\"Chris Kyle; RIP\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=33967\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Chris Kyle; RIP<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[75,118],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-33967","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blue-skies","category-veterans-issues"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33967","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=33967"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33967\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=33967"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=33967"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=33967"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
