Remember the group Sporty Thieves (Hit song No Pigeons) The lead dude got killed near my job saving a little kid from getting hit by car. Never even made local news, right then I learned the truth about media. Always trying to shape a narrative. I will share this though its a great story.
Outside of that dude who saved those girls from that house of horrors in Ohio when do you ever really see bm as heroes? Shit for that matter I never see Asian or Latino heroes or rarely if ever female heroes. It's like only one group of people are willing to risk their lives for others. Sounds pretty engineered to me. On a brighter note I am happy to see at least some news sources picked up this story just wish it would make it here.
It was all over the news. President Hollande and Israelian President Nethanyahu thanked him personally. Thousands want that he becomes a member of the honour legion.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Légion_d'honneur_recipients you know, it was a critical situation for him..first he hided the people in the basement and went back upstairs the shop, where already four Israelis were executed. Then he was running out to the police, he was able to escape and he wasn't sure, whether they wouldn't shoot him..no one knew exactly how many terrorists are in that shop and the one they knew, was a black guy. He took a lot of risks to help the police ( I ain't sure now, whether he was the one who gave the police a key for a door)
If he was a black American man, no one here would believe it. Nevertheless, I am glad he is being honored for his courage.
Yes it was all over the news, from day one. Problem is people don't read the news or only read one, so only natural this story would surprise them. For example, many people who are lazy news readers probably don't know also that the injured cop who begged for his life and was shot in the head lying in the street by the muslim terrorists, was a muslim. The problem with this percentile of radical Muslims is they believe Mohamed gives them permisiipn to slaughter moderate muslims who don'tsupport them. Think about this...Lassana Bathily was hired by Jews and worked in a Kosher deli - if Amedy Coulibaly knew he was muslim, he would have shot him, too. Muslims, Jews and Christians have co-existed relatively peacefully for thousands of years. Not so for these extremists..
Absolutly, this was one of the facts I wanted to point out. He closed the door and went back to save these 6 or 15 people ( not clear exactly). I really have to say.. to see the Christians, Jews and Muslims together at Saturday in Paris to clarify that they will not follow and keep their heads down or to shut our mouth was exceptional. The same demonstrations happened in Berlin or other European towns. Also that The newspaper "Charlie" is printed now to 5 Mio is amazing... They should print 10 Mio! These extremists will not cut our society in different pieces..
I saw some news reports that the magazine is sold out everywhere even pre ordering, so hopefully that will show the radicals that we won't live in fear of them and their threats. I think it's a wonderful thing that people of all religions spoke out in defiance to them and for freedom, by being present on Sunday in the city.
