The ancestry of Carlos Ray Norris, A.K.A. "Chuck Norris"
I've posted my work based research done with Ancestry.com's resources, and various other sources. It is my hope that others can use this as a starting point for their own Norris family research.
http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=PED&db=14x24&id=I0001
How tall?
Officially he's 5'11" but in fact he's more like 5'8" from what I could tell. Smells of scandal! His height is an issue because he's an inspiration for tiny little cute guys everywhere. They can live the life of massive impressive physical speciments if they can actually get away with it. Perhaps there should be an entry on people whose vision prevents them from correctly judging people's heights or reading a measuring tape. --Megaforcemedia (talk) 15:10, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
No he's really 5'11", and so was Rocky Marciano, so it's officially the bad-assest height there is.
Norris was 5'8" at his peak, he has always worn built-up shoes. (92.8.233.79 (talk) 20:32, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
He is 5'10" I worked out with him in barefeet. I am 5'9 1/2 He is just slightly taller.
He is 5'7". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.12.215.46 (talk) 16:35, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
Chuck Norris stands approximatley 9'87.54/100" tall. He bites the tops off of mountains and wipes his ass with porcupines.155.188.247.7 (talk) 17:41, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
Chuck Norris, not wanting to be confined by the wimpy metric or American measurement system, describes himself as being 1 chucks tall, and weighs in around 1 norrises.155.188.247.7 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:45, 30 July 2009 (UTC).
One movie is missing from filmography

in filmography, Logan's War

- No problem. It's added. Tim Ross (talk) 10:12, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
Fight record
I've deleted the last 2 item from Norris' fight record. I can find no evidence that they occurred. No references for them are given in the article, and they are not mentioned in his autobiography, Against All Odds, My Story or at Chuck Norris' fighting record. Feel free to put them back in if you can find some information about the events. Tim Ross (talk) 09:54, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
Phrasing
In the Political Views section: "Chuck Norris supports gun rights and ownership, and is against public schools condoning homosexuality." This last part (bolded) is bizarrely-phrased and not particularly note-worthy or useful. Perhaps his opposition to homosexuality would be more appropriate here - "aberrant sexual behavior" ([1]). ~~
Could you also edit out "the" in the section on Norris sending a letter to Obama not to follow other presidents. It seems to indicate all other presidents supported the pro-abortion stance of Clinton and Obama. This is not the case. It would make it more clear to state "other democratic Presidents" as all republican Presidents have not supported the public financing of abortions since Roe. notoadultery 20:14, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
Chuck Norris inciting armed rebellion against the USA
I think there should be a section under political views regarding Chuck Norris' claim on the Glenn Beck show that there are thousands of cells of right-wing ready to rise against the US government if "things get worse" and that he might run for President of Texas after said rebellion.
Here's a cite:

Chuck Norris has a nice beard. The need to secede “may be a reality sooner than we think,” said Chuck Norris in Townhall. My president-of-Texas quip was tongue-in-cheek, but the idea behind it isn’t.
