How 'bout those Americans in Paris--

[Francie26]

Aren't we all dancing in the online streets today, celebrating our three heroic American guys in Paris. I am so proud of all three of them that I can hardly stand it.  Three young guys, friends for many years back home, were sitting on a train when they saw a guy trying to get a gun to work. They jumped up, and the story turned on that moment. The man with a gun was from the middle east and he was trying to kill massive numbers of people on the train, but he didn't have a chance.

 

Americans to the rescue . . . Again!!!!  A British man joined in, and he helped subdue the middle easterner, the one who was trying to get the rifle to work so he could kill other passengers. Not a chance!!  Our guys got the highest award for courage and bravery pinned on their chest by the French president.

 

And I sit here in the middle of a tiny town in the center of the mighty state of Missouri, and my heart literally swells with pride over "our brave boys," long time friends, and great "American" heros.

eh i am Canadian

 

and i felt the same pride as you, 

Not for Americans,

But for humanity in general,

Makes me proud that we have some out there

that will stand up and say nope not today dumb azz

I am glad they did what they did, i would pray that many would

do the same thing, regardless of country, that they would just

do it,

like we say in fire, you have your partners back

period
