I say, to hell with the government. Let’s talk about some REAL heroes instead. Those people in Washington obviously do not know what being brave is all about otherwise they would have spent last night talking about the bravery of Sergent Munely. They call themselves brave by passing what amounts to a government mandate requiring everyone to buy health insurance, which in my humble estimation is tyranny. Wasn’t this was supposed to be about taking down the insurance companies or at least keeping them honest? Come to find out, it was just another sick and twisted ploy to line their pockets so that politicians would continue to get paid off by the insurance companies for forcing people to carry health insurance. But yet they would call it something like ‘health reform’. Money, money, money and corruption. That’s what this government is all about. But take a look at this hero right here. Read this and think about what real heroism is all about. And keep in mind that the ones who are reporting the real news in America are not the American lamestream media. This article is from the UK press which describes the heroism of Sergeant Munley, who took out the terrorist (yes, terrorist) bastard at Fort Hood even though he had shot her up pretty badly and still had more, albeit much more ammo left to go….

Sergeant Munley, 34, was unconcious after being shot three times by Hasan and was rushed to hospital after she lost so much blood doctors thought she would die.

She was shot twice in the left thigh and once in the wrist but still managed to bring Malik down with four shots of her own.

Dr Kelly Matlock, who treated Munley in hospital, said: “She opened her eyes and said, ‘Did anybody die?’ That’s what she said.” Sgt Munley has now been told that Hasan killed 13 people and wounded 38 but her actions saved the lives of many others.

Hasan still had dozens of bullets left to fire from his two handguns, including a semi-automatic pistol.

Sgt Munley, a mother of two daughters, is just 5ft 3ins tall, but colleagues described her as a “fireball” and a “tough cookie.” She is a member of Fort Hood’s SWAT team.

When she saw Hasan firing she ran toward him and started shooting.

Witnesses said she fired twice and Hasan then turned and charged. Sgt Munley fired more rounds as she fell back, continuing to fire after being shot.

Chuck Medley, director of emergency services at Fort Hood, who has spoken to the officer, said she was in “good spirits.” Sgt Munley’s grandmother, Monirie Metz, said: “Kim doesn’t want be called a hero. She’s worried about everyone else right now.” Sgt Munley is married to Matthew Munley, a special forces soldier, and has two daughters aged three and 13.

Her former police partner Shaun Appler in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina, described how she once saved his life through her bravery.

Mr Appler said a suspect had tried to grab his gun and was stuggling with him when Sgt Munley dived in.

He said: “I was arresting a subject and we ended up rolling down a hill. My flashlight went one way and my radio went another and the suspect ended up on my back.

“Kim showed up a short time after the fight began and was able to jump on the suspect’s back “She’s powerful and she got him off me and we were able to arrest the guy.

She’s been called ‘Mighty Mouse’ ever since. I’d rather have her by my side on patrol than anyone else.”
