In other news,

Hero didn't think twice
Someone was trapped inside a burning truck on Interstate 80 in Roseville, and Walker didn't want him to die.

Rushing to the flame-engulfed cab, which was lying on its side after a rollover accident, Walker pulled the cracked windshield out of the way, grabbed the driver under the arms, yanked him out of the wreckage and dragged him to safety.

"I couldn't let him burn to death," said Walker, 33, of Rocklin. "I didn't think twice about what would happen to me. Somebody needed help, and no matter what it took, I was going to get him out of there."

Claude Walker didn't give it a second thought.

Sheesh Holden, when are they ever going to ban flames?  And that windshield he had to move out of the way.  What right to windshields is so much more important than people's lives?  Windshield rights aren't even in the constitution, so maybe only the military ought to be using them, let alone civilian access to flames!

Someday we'll wake up and do the right thing, and ban flames.  And windshields.  To hell with Lazs and his "Freedom means I can make flames and windshields, and NOT make flames too if that's what I want!".  People sometimes need to be told what to do.  And forced to do it if they don't want to do what they're ordered to do.  Damn kids get off my lawn.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

Thx for posting that Holden.  There are still good people out there.  As for the original topic, killing missionaries at Christmastime, I'm not very religious, but that's just extra wrong.
