Ex Navy seal killed at gun range.

[ants]

I just read on line that an ex Navy seal sniper, and one other man, were shot and killed at a shooting range in Texas. This happened sometime yesterday. There were no further details given other than a male suspect was in custody. My thoughts & prayers go out to the families.

The media couldn't even make up a better story than this. A double shooting and at a gun range? Hope they don't exploit it.

Yeah, RIP Chris Kyle, sad story..... I wonder WTF happened, was he targeted or was this a stupid confrontation. One thing is certain if your number is up, you are gone...sad but true.

Very sad. He served over seas just to be murdered in his own country. RIP

from what I've read, it looks like it happened while he was working to help veterans who suffer from PTSD , shooter was a veteran as well.

I put this under a thread of its own but it needs to be seen and this topic was the right one for the add on.

I just hear a report that the two victims brought the shooter to the range, as part of a program to help vets deal with P.T.S.D. and that the guy turned on them and shot them in the back.

What a damn shame.

This is a damned shame. Unbelievable. But why???? RIP my fellow vets.....

This is a dam shame. This hero helped soldiers with PTSS and started a foundation. Only to be gunned down by one with it. RIP your a true hero.
