Former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura has been mention by others, and me on my Facebook wall. Well one of the things that was brought up about him was a claim of former navy seal Chris Kyle, which he stated on TV interviews of him striking the former governor. Kyle explains the reason for striking for the former governor of Minnesota was that Jesse Ventura was bad mouthing soldiers at their funeral, and he knocked down Ventura with a punch in 2006 at a bar in California in front of people that was known for a hang out of former Navy Seals. A lot of conservatives are applauding Kyle for what he claim he did to Ventura, because they do not Ventura for being outspoken on wars and big government. While conservatives applaud for Kyle's assault on Ventura, I do not think they do a lot of thinking when they hear a story like this to see if it is true. Kyle's claim of assaulting Ventura back in 2006 is hard to believe for many reasons, and that is what this commentary is about.
First reason why Kyle's story of assaulting former Ventura is hard to believe is that he claim it happen in 2006, but it has not been reported until now through him. Second reason why it is hard to believe Kyle's story of assault on Ventura is that he is the only witness of that incident, and for stories to be true they have to have witnesses. If witnesses saw Kyle hit Ventura in 2006, then Kyle's story of assault would have come out a long time ago. And he would have been charged with assault. That statement there brings up the third reason why it is hard to believe in Kyle's claim of hitting Ventura.
If Kyle's claim is true of punching Ventura in front of people at a bar, then why was he not charge with assault. If Kyle did hit Ventura in front of people, then Ventura could have easily responded to Kyle's assault by pressing charges against Kyle. Ventura would have witnesses supporting his claim of Kyle assaulting him, and Kyle would have been in jail. Kyle's story of punching Ventura in 2006 would have been major news, and most people with access to media would have heard Kyle's story by now. And also Kyle's claim of Ventura bad mouthing families of fallen soldiers would have been news as well.
The timing of Kyle making claim he hit Ventura in the face in 2006, lack of witnesses, and him not get ting charged with assault are reasons why Kyle's claim of hitting Ventura is hard to believe. And yet most conservatives believes in Kyle's story without really thinking about to see if it's true, because they do not like Ventura for being in disagreement with their point of views.
Because Kyle hit Ventura, a lot of Conservatives support Kyle's story. Cause of that to me conservatives are just as weak minded as liberals they despise. For an example let's say instead of Kyle hitting Ventura for bad mouthing Navy Seals, he punches "Focus on the Family" founder Dr James Dobson for speaking out against homosexuality. Do you think that conservatives would have supported Kyle for punching Dr Dobson for speaking out against homosexuality? They might have wanted Kyle to be thrown in jail for assault, but since Kyle's claim of assaulting Ventura get's a free pass for them not liking Ventura for not agreeing with their issues.
