#rsrh Judge John Roll died saving another.

Shot in the back while shielding a wounded man (Ronald Barber, a Giffords staffer) with his own body.  Barber lived. (H/T Hot Air Headlines)

It all happened in seconds, and at an extremely short range. I hope that I never have to face such a situation; if I ever do, I hope and pray that I’ll be able to make the right moral decision so quickly and decisively.
