Moogalian remains hospitalized in stable condition and will receive the Legion of Honor later.

Americans are still keeping the French safe from fascism.

This should not surprise any Freeper:

The three American men whom French authorities credit with disrupting a potential terror attack on a Paris-bound high-speed train Friday are childhood friends who had all attended California’s Freedom Christian School and often played military games together growing up.

And the black hero’s father is a Baptist minister.

Wow, that is wonderful to hear!

These men did a great thing and is what I expect Christians to do.

Todd Beamer would be proud. You don't let evil reign if you can do something about it.

I am anti-tattoo and do not like them. I don’t have any.

But now and them, I think a simple “Let’s Roll!” tattoo with “TB 9/11/2001” underneath it would be classy.

They only knew it was a Kalashnikov because Brian Williams was there to identify it.

The first hero was a french banker (evil capitalist) who confronted the Muzzie as he exited the toilet. He is reported to be hospitalized with serious wounds.

Mark Mooglian is reported to be a professor at the Sorbonne (must be seriously talented).

So, Stone didn't just tackle an armed enemy assailant and save a train-ful of passengers, plus leading his US Armed forces comrades into battle. Oh no. He then took time out to act as battlefield medic and save another hero's life. Grace and effectiveness under pressure.

It may have to wait for a new CIC, but I'd say Stone should be up for some serious hardware around his neck.

While I was waiting for my mother to get her lab work done, the TV in the waiting room was showing the American heroes. I commented to the couple next to me that the American military once again saved a bunch of French people.

Apparently a liberal pantie twister didn’t like what I had to say. He got up and moved as far away from me as he could. LOL. Good thing he didn’t say anything negative about our military.
