Chris Kyle hesitated the first time he killed a person at long range with a rifle. It was a woman who was about to attack a group of US Marines with a hand grenade.

The US Navy SEAL was overlooking an Iraqi town from a shabby building as US forces were still invading the country, before Saddam Hussein had been ousted. The Marines didn't see the woman coming.

'Take a shot,' Mr Kyle's chief told him.

Mr Kyle stammered: 'But...'

'Shoot!' the chief told him again.

I read another book about a SEAL sniper awhile back. They have strict rules of engagement, they don't just shoot anyone they see.

fucking trolls.
 
I bet the real number is higher. I heard they only give half a kill for kids.
children can kill with a grenade or an AK just as easily as an adult.

Probably easier - less morals to have been exposed to
