    So you don't want to answer the question. The answer is the man who took on a gunman with his bare hands.

    He was unarmed.

    But we find out he wasn't a hero but was more concerned about his own safety.

    Exactly and took on a man who was Armed.

    Irrelevant in the process he saved the lives of the others.

    And when some pointed out that President Trump said he would have ran towards the sound of the gun fire at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, millennial snowflakes and liberals didn't believe President Trump. I suppose they believed that everyone were like the Broward County Sheriffs department ?

    One MSD teacher put himself between a student and the shooter Nikolas Cruz paying the ultimate sacrifice for running towards the sound of the gunfire.

    I once saw a Marine who misplaced his rifle when we came under fire and picked up his entrenching tool (shovel) and charged towards Charley. It was kinda funny at the time but that's what we do, well some of us.

    It's one thing to talk the talk, it's another to walk the walk. Folks always say WHAT they will do until it's time.

    Ok you say that to say what?

    That's right.

    Sometimes it gets to the point you no longer give a **** and do what seems like stupid things like putting yourself in harms way.

    Ok, but you claim that a man with an AR 15 shooting at a fleeing shooter is more of a hero than a man who takes on an armed active shooter with his bare hands. Explain that.

    The man you are referring to with the AR-15 (NRA member) didn't have to intervene but did while the other unarmed man was in fear of his life and instead of cowarding in a safe space fought for his life. As soon as he disarmed the shooter and his life was no longer in threat...he did no more and allowed the shooter to flee.

    Your logic is about as ass backwards as they come. Here is a man shooting at a fleeing shooter and in your book he is a hero, but a man who with his bare hands takes on a man shooting in close quarters is nobody. smfh.

    Yep and the cowardly black man fought an armed man with his bare hands. I don't know too many folks who will pursue an armed assailant with just their bare hands.

    And this won't make the national news, but another shooting in Nashville today. At a mall. Wonder why this isn't getting picked up by the national media???
