    The chief cause of failure in this life is giving up what you want most for what you want at the moment.

      Wow, this situation could have ended very badly. I'm glad to see that there are still true heros that will stand up and take action.

          And they say sports don't create positive role models for kids to look up to. A nicely written news article, thanks for bringing it to our attention.

              Now lets just hope the media doesn't turn his life into turmoil.

                  I heard on the news that the girl had been harassed and teased by classmates. Any bets nothing happens to them?

                      He was lucky he seized the moment without incident. With the adrenaline flow, "hero" probably wasn't on his mind.

                          Before jumping the girl and getting the gun, he opened the rear door of the bus and ordered the other kids to run.

                          Although I have no doubt that he would protest, it seems like he should receive more recognition than a nicely worded article or two.
