Damn proud of these brave men, and proud to have been a Marine today.

Contrast the gutsy, courageous action of our fine men in uniform, both here and at Chattanooga, with the mealy mouthed response of our “leaders” to acts of terror against us.

How long can the rank and file hold when the American people fail to give them leaders worthy of the courage and sacrifice they routinely exhibit when the chips are down?

Can’t wait to hear Susan Rice’s comment on this:

The terrorist’s actions were caused by a Youtube video.

LOVE this story. Hope the Marine gets well soon. The French can be weenies, but they will treat these guys like kings.

“Unarmed hero US marine took bullet in the neck...”

Better than taking an arrow to the knee!

This gives you an idea of how the Marines took the jihadi down.

If they don't both get a Légion d'Honneur out of this, I say we give France back to the Germans.

But remember, they’re not heroes. Donald Trump is the hero! [Heap of irony and sarcasm cousine there. I’m proud of those men.]

So in another story I read, the Americans heard an AK47 being loaded in the bathroom, and jumped him when he came out. May have been some disgusting ‘racial profiling’ (/sarcasm) going on as well. (I call it Situational Awareness)

If that Marine stays in a French hospital all his needs will be taken care of. 0bama on the other hand wants him returned to the US where he can be either charged or denied care. (IMHO -sarcasm)

It’s interesting that there is no known motive according to investigators. I am sure they are working as hard as they can to discover one. Certainly, I am at a total loss, I say a total loss, as to whatever could have made this young Moroccan attempt such a foolhardy endeavor. Total loss.
