Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're jumping to a conclusion here not meant by the cartoonist. I think it's silly to think the author is inferring that Chris Kyle was not a good guy (on the contrary, he's saying he was a good guy), and that all people who own guns are bad.

The cartoonist isn't mocking him. He's making a political point against the argument that if only good people had guns, nothing tragic would ever happen. Political cartoonists get paid to do this, and it has a long history in this country.

The cartoon actually appears rather respectful.
