Early media reports indicate that two or three unarmed US Marines
overpowered a terrorist who opened fire on a high-speed train between
Amsterdam and Paris. Details are sketchy so far and the Pentagon has
not confirmed as of yet.

If true, "Well Done" to the Marines!



Forgot link to story:

sharp ears and quick thinking. Good on them.The odd thing how big of a backpack did that guy have to stuff all that ordnance in to board the train?

My wife and I went to a movie yesterday. One of maybe two a year. They checked her purse on the way in.

In line to get some popcorn, the lady next to us said "Did they check your stuff too?". They had a backpack! And were indignant that they were checked. My wife simply replied that yes, they had, and she was glad they did. They were not happy.

Noticed that they had also parked in a handicapped spot in the parking lot, and were both able-bodied.

Evidently felt that they were special and entitled. I'm not surprised.

Did the guy look to be 20 years older than the woman?
