alleged pathological liar is not a primary description[edit]

fix it. 216.164.146.197 (talk) 03:50, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You're right; it should be as he was. (also murderer) 2600:380:EC8D:4B17:D0E8:F79B:4057:9C6 (talk) 05:05, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Until you provide actual evidence without a rebuttal from Chris Kyle or those who defend him, the presumption is that Kyle is innocent and that the burden or proof is on you. 136.36.3.253 (talk) 19:13, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The fact no one can find any evidence of the mass shootings in America he claims he committed, the fact of his much smaller then claimed donations and him upping his numbers in everything he did, pretty much proves he was a liar. 119.224.62.191 (talk) 17:15, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Awards and decorations[edit]

Can the image of Kyle in uniform at the top of the Military career section be used as a source to add to the Awards and decorations section? 50.37.92.170 (talk) 11:09, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Missing[edit]

I miss: "Chris Kyle's Family Claimed He Donated His Book Proceeds To Veterans' Charity, But He Kept Most Of The Profits: The National Review debunks the claim that all proceeds of his book went to veterans' charities. Around 2 percent – $52,000 – went to the charities while the Kyles pocketed $3 million." 7 heinous lies "American Sniper" is telling America Falkmart (talk) 10:35, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reliable source for this? According to WP:RSNP (specifically WP:SALON.COM) The reliability of Salon is questionable at best, but since it's just reposting AlterNet it's not going to be reliable, as per RSNP There is consensus that AlterNet is generally unreliable. - Aoidh (talk) 10:56, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Snopes[edit]

This article uses Snopes as a source; Snopes is by definition not a source 2605:59C8:604F:4010:1C4F:55A6:3EC2:AC3B (talk) 01:52, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
