I'm sure by now, everone has heard about the two fine young upstanding succesful doctors who, while I'm sure otherwise would have spent their lives as gentle human beings, decided that they could no longer stand the evil American occupation of the Middle east... and therefore needed to fight back the only way they knew how...by driving a flaming car into a Terminal in Glasgow, Scotland.
Anyway, it seems an "average joe" type guy, and employee of the terminal, John Smeaton, did what many of us at least HOPE we would have the balls to do when it came down to it... As one of the flaming terrorists jumped from the not-yet-exploded car bomb, a policeman rushed in to help put him out. The terrorist would have none of that, and attacked the policeman. John said to himself... ye don' goo aroun' ataggin' policmen 'ere, this is Glasgow, "we'll set aboot ye!" Smeaton rushed to the policman's aid and helped to subdue the terrorist.
Now, there is an online drive to buy Smeaton 1,000 pints of beer at the nearby Airport Holiday Inn bar. You can donate through paypal. Check out this site dedicated to him (with links to a few of the news interviews he's done) and buy him a beer! I did!
Ere's ta ye John!Slainte!
