US Marines foil terrorist on train
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! |

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. |

Driving a nice car, but both definitely not in need of a handicapped space. Just your typical, "I'm entitled", democrat voter. Definitely not KKKrause then. |

The lone Frenchman mentioned in the article had injured himself pulling the train's alarm. Heh-heh. |
