This "incident" is brought to you by the shepple who teach "do not resist", "let the police handle it", "that is vigilantism". Thank you Barbara, Diane, Charlie and many more who have instilled those "thoughts" in our children.

The professor knew what a load those "thoughts" were and acted as a brave man should.

RIP Sir.

RIP Professor.

I guess God saved you in 1945 for a good reason.

“Man hath no greater love than this, to give his life to his fellow man.”

Thank you for your sacrifice, the world is a lesser place without you.

I hope that the students live up to the price you paid.

RIP professor and RA.

Many folks in the office asked me, "What would you have done?"

It saddens me that they have to ask.

If this professor were a military man; his actions would, IMO, qualify him for the Medal Of Honor. May the students and faculty never forget what he did. Heaven is now a better place. May he RIP.
