Deadliest Sniper Punches Out Jesse Ventura !!!

[JG55]

[Guest bkelm18]

That's great. I can't stand Ventura.

[G27]

If it went down as described, good, he deserved it.

[LagerHead]

Wow. What infinitesimally small amount of respect I had for Ventura is gone. It takes a special kind of POS to make a statement like that at a wake in front of the family. Maybe he should go protest with those d-bags from Westboro so he can be among like-minded wastes of oxygen.

[Guest bkelm18]

Wasn't Ventura a SEAL as well?

[Guest db99wj]

Yes I believe he was, and what a waste. Don't have to agree with the politics, but don't disrespect the men.

I believe that he was in UDT; not a full SEAL.

Ventura got out in in 1974 NEC was 5321 not 5326 so he was UDT not SEAl... enough said.

After listening to that one side I am astonished that a former servicemember would say something like that: however, if it's true, he deserved a lot more than what he got.

[Defender]

Never liked him in the first place. This is just another reason.

I would like to hear the other side of the story as well.

I absolutely can't stand Ventura. He is nothing more than a loud mouth jerk. However, I would like to know when it became okay to assault someone because they say something you find highly offensive.

Aside from the law, verbal assault doesn't count in your book?

FWIW... this happened in 2006.

Go to a wake full of hardcore service members and trash the dead. Pretty sure you'd get popped too. Some people deserve a pop in the mouth and I fully approve. 'Nuff said.

Was it assault with a deadly word? I don't like the old wind bag either, but what happened to sticks and stones? I'm offended every time a politician opens his mouth, but I can't go around punching them.

If he was being offensive, surely the thing to do would have been to have him removed from the premises and make it a headline where he would be viewed in worse light without question.

Verbal assualt is against the law in some places too, but like I said, I wasn't talking about the law in this case which is why I said, "Aside from the law...."

Ventura gets zero sympathy from me regardless of the law.

Someone asked this same question on a Facebook discussion about this same topic. This was my response:

The Special Operations community is a small, tight knit community with some unwritten rules of which Ventura was certainly well aware. And one of the rules is, sometimes getting your ass whipped is the appropriate and expected response. This was one of those cases. In my opinion, Ventura should be glad it was only one punch from one guy and not a beat down by the entire team, which also would have justified in this case. Telling someone that their friend or family member deserved to die because of decisions made by politicians they never met is begging to get your ass kicked every day of the week and twice on Sunday. In truth Ventura should thank Kyle for so swiftly and effectively answering his pleas. But Kyle, being they Type-A bad ass that he is would probably just shrug it off and say, "No thanks necessary. I was just doing what had to be done."

When it happened..it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy...Ventura invites controversy. And...not to belabor the point...and I'm kinda splitting hairs...Yes Jesse was a UDT...back in his day UDT's and SEAL's were separate critters...they all went to BUD/S...and there was no difference in the training...when you graduated...you were either assigned to a SEAL Unit...or a UDT Unit. The "communities" were merged ( I Think ) in the late 80's or early 90's...and all UDT's "became" SEAL's...so yes Jesse was a SEAL as well as a UDT...but more importantly...Jesse has a rather huge mouth and doesn't necessarily know when its best to keep his opinions to himself.

Looks like Mister I-ain't-got-time-to-bleed got what was comin' to him.

Good for Chris Kyle.

My dad was in the Air Corps in WWII. He decked a guy once in a bar who insulted him. That's what a real man does.

[Guest db99wj]

All fights aren't assaults.

I'm sure technically you could charge someone, even convict, but sometimes people get into fights, and sometimes you get your assed kicked. Doesn't mean it should be an "assault".

If he gets charged I'll pay the fines!!!!

Thanks for the tip. I reckon folks who don't allow other's words to manipulate them are all just yella.

Not necessarily yella, they just don't have any standards.
