Thanks for the heads-up to this, Mike.

BCM's 'personal profile page' here on FR reads, in part:

'Location: Deep behind enemy lines in New York City'

My best uneducated guess is that, when he wrote that, he was referring to the fact that NYC is politically leftist-concentrated. But his reference to 'enemy lines' is very sad.

I never bumped into John here on FreeRepublic. Sure wish I had. One doesn't cross paths with true heroes, or men of genuine courage, very often.

He is surely in a better place. Let's hope that his sacrifice will serve as an example for the rest of us. There are perilous days ahead, and the more John Morans there are among us, the more assured we are of victory over the enemy who took him from us.

Did you notice too that his memorial was 3 yrs to the day from when he became a FReeper? Very eerie.

RIP brave soul.

glory-->to those FReepers that have lost thier lives recently!

That is my prayer too.
