The Eddie Ray Routh trial is underway and information is starting to come out about that day at the gun range.
Shortly before he was shot to death by a troubled former Marine at a Texas gun range, legendary Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle texted a buddy, "This dude is straight-up nuts," a defense attorney told jurors Wednesday.
A lawyer for Eddie Ray Routh said in opening statements of the man's murder trial that Routh's insanity was so evident that Kyle and his friend Chad Littlefield exchanged texts expressing alarm as the three rode together in February 2013 to a Texas shooting range.
"He's (sitting) right behind me, watch my six," Littlefield texted back, using a military reference for watching one's back.
Yet they still went to the gun range. Why?
Because being a member of the fucking Gun Cult makes you that fucking stupid.
Responsible gun owners my ass!

You don't know the spirit in which those texts were made. You don't know the conversation or what sparked those comments. To me, they sound like they were made in a rather joking, sarcastic sense. If they weren't, I have pretty fucking severe doubts whether an extremely highly trained and experienced special forces operator would've turned his back on somebody he thought was an actual threat. After all, Quite a few people think you're straight-up nuts, but I doubt anybody thinks you're any kind of a threat except maybe to their cornhole if you slipped them a roofie. Nikto, on the hand, well, he shouldn't be allowed utensils other than spoons for fear that their demonic nature would compel him to stab somebody.
And here we have M's unfiltered view on veterans - they were all nuts because of guns.
