Reports this morning tell us that three men lost their lives
in the Aurora massacre protecting their girlfriends.
The New York Daily News has the story:
Three
survivors of the Colorado movie-theater massacre escaped with minor wounds, but
were left with broken hearts because their heroic boyfriends died saving them.
In final acts of valor, Jon Blunk, Matt McQuinn and Alex Teves used their bodies to shield their girlfriends as accused madman James Holmes turned the Aurora cineplex into a shooting gallery.
Blunk’s girlfriend, Jansen Young; McQuinn’s girlfriend, Samantha Yowler; and
Teves’ gal pal Amanda Lindgren made it out of the bloodbath — but they would
have been killed had it not been for the loves of their lives.
In a time where men are routinely denounced as abusive and
where women insist that they do not need men to protect them, it is worth
taking a moment to honor the memory of three men who knew what was right and
did it.

Thank you for calling attention to these heroes.
I hope that we will remember the names of these heroes, never mentioning the name of the coward that did this...
