Reports are stating that Chris Kyle has been killed at the training range in Texas.  Makes me sick if true.

Famed Navy SEAL Chris Kyle shot, killed in N. Texas


GLEN ROSE, Texas -- A former U.S. Navy SEAL who gained recognition during the Iraq War was one of two people fatally shot southwest of Fort Worth on Saturday, KHOU 11 News has learned.

Sources close to the investigation tell KHOU that one of the victims was Chris Kyle, a former Navy SEAL and author of the New York Times bestselling book, "American Sniper."

Kyle was shot point-blank while helping another soldier who is recovering from post traumatic stress syndrome.

A warning was issued for the suspect, who was believed to be driving a black Ford F-350 truck with large tires and rims.

Police have reportedly captured the suspect in Lancaster, south of Dallas. The suspect was believed to be highly trained with military experience

The shooting location is 53 miles southwest of Fort Worth.

"American Sniper" was published last year, and details Kyle's 150-plus kills of insurgents from 1999 to 2009. The book's cover refers to Kyle as "the most lethal sniper in U.S. military history."

Just awful

[JPhelps]

I sit here with a lump in my throat.

A man that put it all on the line and survived all his tours is killed when he most likely didnt expect it.

That shooter is a coward!!!  I think Texas still believes in the death penalty, right?

[boneaddict]

THey do.   Firing squad even

[boneaddict]

I say they start at his shins and work their way up

I remember the very last firing squad execution in Utah. It was just a year or two ago. They had some many police offers put in for it that they had to have a raffle to pick the lucky winners
