Wouldn't be appropriate to do it in public face to face, but perfectly cool to do it anonymously on a public forum. Ok, got it. I never said anyone should automatically go along with anything. I just said I'd be honored to meet him. Not because of his stance on UBCs or who he supports for President or any other political opinion, but because the guy is a hero in my opinion. And yes, I know some of the details in the movie/book were greatly fictionalized. Apparently so was Kyle's book and movie. Hollywood embellishments don't change how I feel about either man.
Yes stating my opinion on and online forum is ok and going to a public event to trash talk him isn't ok to me. How is that even in doubt? That you have a man crush should mean squat but you seem to be taking it personal that others don't. And no you didn't just say you would be honored to meet him. You said people were trash talking him and wouldn't have the balls to say it to his face. That smack talk was what I responded too. It doesn't bother me a bit that you crush on him but there is no need to denigrate those that don't. And what the heck got yourt panties in a bunch anyway? The weakest smack talk ever on this site? Is saying "Meh, not going to bother" really that bad? Or was it when questioned people actually had the nerve to explain why they felt that way?
I read that statement as it's easy to talk about someone and their positions online. Maybe you act more gangsta in the words you type vs. sitting face to face with an American hero. In other words, I bet you wouldn't say it to his face.
Besides what is he going to do shoot me? I don't get knocked kneed over famous people.
