Michael Moore has bashed American heroes like Chris Kyle in a series of tweets and public statements like this one.
My uncle killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren't heroes. And invaders r worse

Statements like this make me wonder whether or not Mr. Moore has any idea about the number of American lives that snipers like Chris Kyle saved by doing their job.
A statement from the American Sniper Association indicates:
A professional sniper is a specially selected, specially trained, specially equipped team member, who makes use of his skills, training and equipment to gain a position of advantage, and provide real time information to his tactical team, to aid them in planning and executing a peaceful resolution to a critical incident. As a secondary function, the sniper provides lethal cover and protection to team members, innocent civilians, and hostages, and if necessary, can direct precision fire against designated authorized targets…The mission focus of the professional sniper is to save and safeguard lives…Snipers are ordinary people, who have taken on an extraordinary job. The title “sniper” is one we wear with pride. Real snipers save lives, every time they go to work. How many of you can make the same declaration?
Michael Moore continued with his rant by claiming to know what Jesus would do.
Tomorrow's Sunday School (1) What Would Jesus Do? Oh, I know what he'd do — hide on top of a roof and shoot people in the back!

Sunday School: (2) But What Would Jesus Do if he could be a sniper & save soldiers lives by shooting "savages" in the back? ANSWER…

Sunday School: (3) ANSWER: Jesus wouldn't put any soldiers lives in harm's way in the first place because he wouldn't have sent them 2 Iraq

He also is delusional by thinking that he attempted to save American lives by protesting the Iraq war.
Instead of being a sniper to protect our troops, I tried to save their lives by stopping Bush from sending them to their deaths in Iraq.
