I actually don't have any issues with what the reporter stated it was the actual truth. Any person who puts their life on their line no matter what the cause has to have some sort of courage when you are challenging a police station full of armed officers knowing that you are in a losing battle.
Bill Maher got blasted by the repugs when he stated the 9-11 hijackers were brave and I agree with Maher- you have to be pretty brave and not fear death if you plan to hijack a plane and fly into a building.
You repugs try to make it seem as if being brave and courageous is the same as being a hero.
If a man gets in a cage with of pride of lions and gets eaten alive would I be wrong to say the guy was brave? No, it would be the correct statement because the average person would FEAR going into a cage with a pride of lions- would the man also be foolish- yes, but he would be brave as well.

Maher started off his asinine statement back in 2001 by suggesting that we were acting in a cowardly fashion by attacking terrorists from afar with cruise missiles. Would you prefer that we 'bravely' send our young men into battle on horseback instead? That sure would be 'courageous,' wouldn't it?
The loon who attacked the Dallas Police station apparently intended to commit 'suicide by cop.' Yeah, that's real brave, I'm sure. Likewise, it's 'brave' to stick a 9mm pistol up to your temple and fire it, isn't it? (No, it's just crazy.)
Learn the difference.
