I have not yet sen this movie, nor have I read the book it is based on. Both are on my list of things to do. The basic story is about Chris Kyle, who became the highest scoring sniper in the United States Military. He wrote a book about his experiences, primarily to aid him with his stress. The book was then made into a highly successful movie that was nominated for a number of Academy awards. Politics got involved so the film didn&#8217;t win the best picture award as it should have.<\/p>\n<p>The film has been shown all over the world, and was scheduled to be played at the University of Michigan. Then the perpetually offended class went to work, and right on schedule, the university promptly caved and canceled the showing.
