Paul Hackett, hero

I haven't been a fan of anti-war Democrats in general, or of Paul Hackett in particular. But I was impressed to read that he'd chased some bad guys down and held them at gunpoint until police arrived. Of course the civilian AR15 is not an "assault weapon" (assuming that word to have some objective meaning besides "scary gun"), but the reporter tried.

Gotta love this line:

"He said he had done this about 200 times in Iraq, but this time there was not a translation problem," the police report said.
