BREAKING=> Video Released of French Train Terrorist Hogtied by US Servicemen

Video was released of the Moroccan gunman immediately after the terrorist attack on a high-speed train from Brussels to Paris.

The terrorist is laying on the floor hog-tied by US servicemen. ** They beat him unconscious before they tied him up.

Spencer Stone, of the U.S. Air Force, was traveling with Oregon National Guard member Alek Skarlatos, 22, (right) who was on leave after a tour of Afghanistan, when he heard the gunman load his weapon in the toilet. Skarlatos shouted ‘Spencer, go!’ and they charged him down. (Daily Mail)

The train staff locked themselves into a staffroom during the attack. The Daily Mail reported:

“ Train staff on board the high speed train which was the scene of a suspected Islamic extremist attack yesterday have been accused of barricading themselves in their staffroom and locking the door, leaving passengers to fend for themselves.

The Moroccan terrorist was disarmed and beaten unconscious by US servicemen and a British man after he opened fire on a Paris-bound train with a Kalashnikov.

Now, French actor Jean-Hugues Anglade, who was on board the Thalys train during the attack has slammed train staff who he claims locked themselves in an office away from the attacker and refused to help the trapped passengers."

The two servicemen displayed heroism typical of American exceptionalism while the French train staff locked them selves in a room, probably prepping their white flags.

Now the two servicemen will be looking at some made up charges and be dismissed from the service dishonorably by the embarrassed DC Regime. They will be lucky to escape prison or extradition to some ISIS location for a quick trial there.

Apparently, the goat humper’s gun jammed. Had everybody behaved like sheep he would have had time to clear it and shoot everyone in the carriage.

“If someone can explain why I’m wrong here, I’m open to alternative opinions.”

You’re wrong. EVERYONE nearby needs to kick, stomp, hit, stab, or whatever they can do to people like that. Don’t have a knife? Use a pen or pencil. Wear sturdy shoes where ever you go. Carry a roll of coins. Steal the Scout motto, and use it.

OK, other than small details, you’re right! :)

As with Flight 93.
Flight 93’s inspirational period. Resulted inspite of our government whose policies towards airlines (and good old American take careidness,) facilitated hijacker rides through acquiescence promotion. These govment you are helpless and hapless promoting idiots have screwed us at every turn by disarming military bases, schools, the people. The right to defend ones self.
All in...it’s all you’ve got.

Hopefully the French government gives the American servicemen the Legion of Honor and Croix de Guerre for stopping this terrorist attack.

Those on Flight 93 were unnamed but still stopped the terrorists from reaching their goals. Sometimes you have to decide “I may die but this asshole is coming with me”.

Those three guys are what are called “problem solvers.”

Entire governments that make these guys have to act on their own in supposedly safe places have no desire to solve any problems.

How many Army combat soldiers here have been referred as Marines while in battle dress uniform? Raise your hands!

Where'd they go? ;-)

[While I'm still here, I'll answer for them. Many!]

So they allowed a Muslim terrorist on their train. Allowed him to bring guns on board. Locked themselves safely in a secure employee area. Denied a safe escape for train patrons. Would have just let the terrorist shoot all the passengers. So would they have kept the train on schedule after all the passengers were killed ?

I don't believe any USMC servicemen were involved.....

And not one of the "hero's" took a bullet....

I know...one was in the USAF...and another was in the National Guard. The other two...one was a student..and another a Brit living in France.

With luck, he soiled himself like a sleeping baby, too...
