9/11 Tribute{Explored}

I dedicate this post to not only to all the men and women who died on that tragic day, but also to the brave warriors oversees. Fighting constantly to protect our freedoms every day.

Here are some bittersweet quotes from Chris Kyle that I find appropriate:

“Savage, despicable evil. That's what we were fighting in Iraq.”

 

“I am a strong Christian. Not a perfect one—not close. But I strongly believe in God, Jesus, and the Bible. When I die, God is going to hold me accountable for everything I’ve done on earth. He may hold me back until last and run everybody else through the line, because it will take so long to go over all my sins. “Mr. Kyle, let’s go into the backroom. . . .” Honestly, I don’t know what will really happen on Judgment Day. But what I lean toward is that you know all of your sins, and God knows them all, and shame comes over you at the reality that He knows. I believe the fact that I’ve accepted Jesus as my savior will be my salvation. But in that backroom or whatever it is when God confronts me with my sins, I do not believe any of the kills I had during the war will be among them. Everyone I shot was evil. I had good cause on every shot. They all deserved to die.”

 

“anyone who has a problem with what guys do over there is incapable of empathy. People want America to have a certain image when we fight. Yet I would guess if someone were shooting at them and they had to hold their family members while they bled out against an enemy who hid behind their children, played dead only to throw a grenade as they got closer, and who had no qualms about sending their toddler to die from a grenade from which they personally pulled the pin—they would be less concerned with playing nicely.”

 

“Why a ball cap? Ninety percent of being cool is looking cool. And you look so much cooler wearing a ball cap.”

 

“People want America to have a certain image when we fight. Yet I would guess if someone were shooting at them and they had to hold their family members while they bled out against an enemy who hid behind their children, played dead only to throw a grenade as they got closer, and who had no qualms about sending their toddler to die from a grenade from which they personally pulled the pin—they would be less concerned with playing nicely.”

 

“Great way to fight a war - be prepared to defend yourself for winning.”

 

“Marines—you beat them down and they come back for more.”

 

All of the above are quotes from Chis Kyle's book American Sniper!

God bless, Si vis pacem para bellum and HOOYAH!

 

All the things are above not politically correct... DEAL WITH IT:D
