I'd like to give a SHOUT OUT to Sgt. Kimberly Munley

Police Sgt. Kimberly Munley credited with ending Fort Hood gunman Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan's rampage
Quote:
The hero cop who ended the bloody rampage at Fort Hood had been directing traffic moments before she confronted the gunman and pumped four bullets into him despite being shot herself.


Civilian police Sgt. Kimberly Munley and her partner responded within three minutes of reported gunfire Thursday afternoon, Lt. Gen. Bob Cone said Friday.


Munley, who had been trained in active-response tactics, rushed into the building and confronted the shooter as he was turning a corner, Cone said.
"It was an amazing and an aggressive performance by this police officer," Cone said.


Munley was only a few feet from crazed Army psychiatrist Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan when she opened fire.


Wounded in the exchange of gunfire, Munley was reported in stable condition at a local hospital.


The hero cop spent Thursday night phoning fellow officers to let them know she was fine and to find out about casualties in the attack - the deadliest ever on a military base in the U.S., Cone said.


Cone said Munley's aggressive response training taught her that "if you act aggressively to take out a shooter you will have less fatalities."


"She walked up and engaged him," he said. He praised her as "one of our most impressive young police officers."

Sgt. Munley did what she needed to do in a stressful, adrenaline-laced situation with pain and fear running rampant in her, I'm sure. That my friends, defines a hero in my book!

Whoa TENGU! Don't you know that it isn't "politically correct" to point out when police officers save lives and put their own lives on the line to help others?(which happens every day in America) Maybe you could find a negative article about police officers to post, instead. That would make the masses happy.

In all seriousness, this article is another of the MANY examples of police officers risking their lives to help others. Kudos to Officer Munley. There is no telling how many lives were saved thanks to Officer Munley's efforts.

Hell I'll take it a step further and mention that the shooter is Muslim!

Well, if you follow their logic, all cops are bad. So, I guess if a few bad officers spoil the whole bunch, then the same holds true for other demographics.
