Yeah, cuz an armed and trained Nave SEAL won't be nearly as effective as a rent-a-cop...maybe the shooting range should have had some actual experts there to protect Navy SEALs from people who should not be armed, but are.
Fish on...

I think beating the fact he was well trained with a gun is weak. No one would expect to be attacked at a gun range, even if you were accompanied by a guy with PTSD, and shooting two unsuspecting people at close range wouldn't be difficult at all- just ask those Lakewood cops that Clemmons gunned down. All four of them were armed and were presumably at a higher alert status than Chris Kyle.
Let's see... if there was an armed security guard in that Parkland cafe I bet Clemmons wouldn't have been able to kill all the four officers or may have even thought twice about the engagement... and no one seems to calculate the deterrent factor- maybe even some whacked out potential shooter would reconsider if he knew a guy like Chris Kyle were watching over a school.
Using his death or the school shootings for a political agenda sucks, whether that is pro or anti gun.
The guy was a hero, those cops died unnecessarily in the line of duty and those kids were completely innocent. All three are tragic and each of the shooters deserve to burn in Hell, but to criticize the Chris Kyle's talents or diminish them by promoting their death to make a point is rude.
I heard excerpts of an interview on the radio this morning with Piers Morgan and Ted Nugent and Ted, whom I rarely consider eloquent, actually made a good point- You (Piers M.) don't seem concerned about murder at all... you seem fixated on guns...
You can listen if you missed it
