I dont understand why is he dead.He was armed and was killed by gun.I dont get it.

[SilverlightUnicorn]

As I understand it, the killer was a fellow serviceman, a former Marine, who was suffering from PTSD and who Chris was trying to help overcome said disorder. Chris probably considered him a trustworthy friend, and let his guard down. :(

I have PTSD and I don't go shooting people who offer me help. Mental disorder is not freedom from culpability.

PTSD causes people to do things they don't normally do! It was not betrayal! It was the worst case of PTSD gone untreated for too long. Chris still would have tried to help him knowing the danger, and that is what he did. All of us veterans only have each other, Chris was going to be there no matter what and that is why he is the man and the hero that he will always be!

[greatwhite78]

What you don't seem to understand is that PTSD changes a person and causes things like this to happen! Chris knew that, as all of us veterans do, and he still chose to help his brothers and sisters cause that is what any of us would do. Chris is a great man, and the man who shot him, I am sure, just didn't get help in time! R.I.P, Chris Kyle

How did Chris die

[Smokealotofblunts]

It's crazy to think he was on this show and passed away too soon. America's #1 badass

[Colt Stallion]

Alot of childred still have their daddy thanks to this man. As someone already pointed out, he saved many more lives than he took. War is hell, but thank you for protecting our boys Chris. The enemy called him the devil, but to the people he saved, he truly eas an angel on that battle field. Many people thank him for there loved ones returning home safely. RIP Brother. My hero.

That's exactly it. He trusted the other person and was betrayed when he had his back turned.
