Kris, a former Army Sergeant, said the following at the Winter Soldiers Hearings in Washington D.C. “I joined the army to kill people. I joined the army to kill Iraqis, to kill Muslim, to kill people [with] a skin tone that was other than mine.” He then apologized, “I’m no longer a racist, no longer filled with hatred like that.”
