He made statements indicating that he wished he could kill every person with a Koran and bragged about killing alleged looters after Katrina. These are the actions of a psychopath not a hero. I'm ashamed of Clint Eastwood and Bradley Cooper for making a propaganda piece that whitewashes all the negative things he said in his book. I am sorry for his wife and kids and hate he met a violent end but when you preach violence it tends to come back...
There are a lot of heroic servicemen and women who he has disgraced through his statements and actions (that he claimed but are not proven when it comes to Katrina).
