<p>A high school quarterback risked his life disarming a high school student on a school bus who was threatening to kill other students with a gun. The football player said that if anyone was shot, he preferred that it be him. What a hero!</p>

<p>heard/saw about this story last night on the news. he’s simply awesome. i hope some one with his bravery/tackle skills is always around if, god forbid, some thing like this ever happens again D:</p>

<p>In such a situation, I don’t know what I would do, but he is simply amazing for what he did. He’s certainly a hero.</p>

<p>that’s amazing</p>

<p>Good for him:) That’s an amazing thing to do.</p>

<p>What a pro, good for him (and his schoolmates).</p>

<p>I need a good friend like that, lol. But really: he’s a true hero.</p>

<p>EDIT: Watched the video, and I think that girl has “issues”. I mean, I’ve had those kind of circumstances, and I never went berserk.</p>

<p>This man seriously deserves a medal. Not easy to talk someone with a gun out of it. Football ftw. O_O</p>
