Justice and American Sniper

There is so much debate about justice in this world. So many definitions and ideas of what justice is. Right now, there is much discussion about the movie that just came out about American Hero, Chris Kyle. The movie is called American Sniper, and it is about a United States Navy Seal who is considered to be the most lethal sniper in U.S. Military History. His pinpoint accuracy not only saved countless lives but also made him a prime target of insurgents. Despite, he knew his job was to save his brothers and fellow Americans and that was exactly what he did. People all over are criticizing the film. Michael Moore tweeted that “we were taught that snipers were cowards.” First, who is we? Those snipers and other  soldiers are the ones that protect this country from the evil that wants to destroy it. Some said that the film was pro war, and on the news the other night, Moore was saying that Kyle took lives that did not need to be taken. What?? He killed people that wanted to hurt America. He killed people that killed for no reason. He brought those insurgents to justice. Polemarchus says that justice is doing good to one’s friends and harm to one’s enemies. We must protect what is ours and protect our weak from the enemies that want us destroyed. Chris Kyle protected his people and killed the ones that wanted to destroy them and his country.
