You're using the murder of by all rights an american hero to twist your own political point. If you're point is strong enough you don't need to resort to such tactics.
There are multiple things that can be inferred from the cartoon.
A. Chris Kyle wasn't a good guy.
B. All people who own guns are bad.
Do I think if Chris Kyle wanted to stop that guy from shooting him he could? Very likely but doing so would have required him to kill the vet. He likely made the choice to continue to try to help that vet than to take action and was killed trying to save a life rather than take it.
Hey gave his life trying to help this guy and now the cartoonist is trying to mock that attitude. Very poor taste and looking at his other cartoon a sign of significant mental illness of his own.
We a cartoon with a grave with the #37 on it be appropriate with the tag line...if only we had more lifeguards?
Chris Kyle likely made a choice to try to help instead of kill and lost his life for it. Now we mock him for that choice.....
