Man deserves every accolade and every penny he gets from this. If ever there was someone to put on a pedestal and hero worship, here he is.

Dude didn’t even hesitate to rush the gunman. What an outstanding human being.

Old man strength and balls the size of New Mexico.

Not all heroes do it to be heroes. They do it because it’s inside them even if they didn’t know it. Instant fight mode.

Small rural town in Oklahoma. I would say the principal has no worries.

Ol' baw has been to some defense training classes:

quote:

The advice to run away from a knife and rush/run toward a gun is a common self-defense maxim focusing on distance management.

Knife: Distance is your best defense because a knife requires close proximity to be lethal. Running creates separation.

Gun: Distance gives a shooter a better aim and time to react. In close encounters, closing the distance can stop a gunman from aiming effectively.

I see the time stamp on the video shows April 7, 2026. A week later and this has not been shown on MSM? If it has, I missed it.

I'm assuming next football season players will be suiting up to represent the newly named Kirk Moore High School?

What a fricking boss that dude is for charging that piece of shite and saving lives. And he’s an absolute unit too.

Also good for the other guy for coming to help as well.

Hero. 100%.

Might be surprised. Some formerly red areas are now disturbingly blue.
