"In life, he never really got the spotlight he was seeking. But in the days
following the massacre that shattered their small Alabama community, some have

victim of Tuesday's shooting rampage by Michael McLendon, single-handedly tried
to end the violence with his beat-up old pickup."

Wow. I always wonder where people come up with this strength, this ability to intervene. They are just regular people...it's something that helps me believe in God.
isn't it something what he did? this is the first we've seen or heard about it, though the shootings happened several days ago. it's nice to see a little good news from this awful event, because it's all just been bad bad bad so far.
your blog was the first i heard about. guess thats tellin my age. ...felt really bad for the guy. i can be talkative and a nuisance too, i guess. the guy must have been quite lonely.

I guess maybe he was lonely. But it also sounds like he had an inner strength that was reflected in the last few minutes of his life.
