Can we just get actual facts here?

Proof that a lie is more believable than the truth.

  If you have been paying attention to the Interwebz, you have seen this post or one like it running amok.  (Amok amok amok).  People post it and express outrage.  How dare our Sassensach President honor "American Zero" while ignoring a true American hero?  Well, there is only one thing wrong with all of this outrage...well maybe two. 
     The first thing that is wrong with this outrage is IT NEVER HAPPENED!  Obama never ordered the flags to be flown at half mast for Houston's death.  Chris Christie of NJ did and was greatly slammed for it.  So let me restate.  OBAMA never ordered flags to be flown at half mast for Houston and never even released an Official WH comment on the matter.  He did mention a person message about his family's thoughts and prayers but not an official WH response.  So just to make sure everyone groks, The above is A LIE!
     Second, Chris Kyle may have been a hero, but simply put, his senseless death in a murder is no more or less important than the deaths of hundreds of others that occur every single day.  If he had been killed in action on one of his deep sniper mentions, we probably wouldn't have even known about it.  Not a single one of these people who are in a uproar over the lie above could quote the name of a single American Soldier killed while in Active Duty recently.  We have lost 1000s of American Heroes overseas and very few mentions are made of it, but when a Civilian is murdered it is suddenly important because he was a Hero.
     Sorry people but Hero Worship is still Hero Worship.  Those who demand outrage because the Hero (99% had never heard or cared about this man before his death) are just as bad as the ones who wailed and cried when Houston and Jackson committed suicide.  Maybe worse, because at least the people destroyed by their deaths actually knew and (in their own way) cared about them before they died.  Someone's live who is famous is no more or less important than a man who toils away everyday just to feed his family or a woman who struggles to take care of her kids while working two jobs.  Maybe it is time we stopped believing the lies on the Internet and started looking at the truth.
