It was their American privilege. I think it is just awful they violated his personal space like that...reparations are due. The people on the train were being microagressive.
So the story undergoes another revision.
Originally, it was said the someone heard the perp loading or racking the weapon in the restroom, recognized it for what it was, and they went after him. It doesn’t bear any resemblance to this version.
Yes, I read that one too.
Obama’s praise is very surprising to me. Am I being unfair?
Is it because he is receiving so much criticism on the campaign trail and his approval rating is down (but not as much as it should be).
Investigators are still stumped as to the 26 year-old mans motive. It’s a mystery.
Incredible...Just when it seemed all h-ll would break loose, these young men remind the world that America is still great. I am so proud of these soldiers.
I think there was an older British man involved too
A little bit of head thumping ;)
As president, some things he has to say. Doesn't necessarily mean he believes it.
The guy that was shot was walking into the Restroom when the Jihadi Bastard came out.
The Americans heard the Gunshot and rushed the Jihadi Bastard. They were at the other end of the Rail Car and they had to run up a narrow Aisle to get him.
Reminds me of the Brave Souls on Flight 19.
God Bless America and our Brave Military.
I bet the guy signed for the gun and now will have to pay for it.
Yep, I just placed an order for my Grandson’s 1st CCW holster. He was looking through my gear but nothing fit right or it was worn ragged.
As commander in chief, he wants to order them to do a HALO over Tehran with only non-leathal weapons.
“A gunman tackled by young Americans...”
should read
“An Islamic terrorist was taken down by two, young US Marines...”
“”At that point I showed up and grabbed the gun from him and basically started beating him in the head until he fell unconscious,” said Skarlatos.”
Why didn’t you just shoot the jihadi while you had the chance??? Let him have his 72 virgins and be done with it.
All that Muzzie lives for is death and destruction...and he should have received it.
“The guard was running away.
These Americans ran towards danger.
Damn, they were brave.”
Nope. They were US Marines!
Obama in his statement said they might have prevented a greater tragedy:
“While the investigation into the attack is in its early stages, it is clear that their heroic actions may have prevented a far worse tragedy. “
May have! They did. But it all depends on how you look at it. And whose side you are on.
Yes, I read somewhere that Skarlatos gave it back to him upside the head. Repeatedly.
Nope. (We can’t take credit for everything.)
One was Air Force, one was National Guard, and the other was a US civilian.
