Jean-Paul LaPierre, a 54-year-old boxer and marathon runner from Weymouth, Massachusetts (Boston area), was riding a CTA Blue Line train in Chicago heading to the marathon.
He stepped off, learned a man was robbing passengers at gunpoint, went back aboard, confronted the robber, grappled with him, disarmed the gun, and held him against the train wall until police arrived.
In the video, LaPierre says, “That kinda made me mad” and “I’m a boxer. I’ll break your head in one punch.” He later added, “It matters to me.”
The robber, Tremaine Anderson (30, with prior record), was arrested and charged with armed robbery.
LaPierre then ran the Chicago Marathon (his 12th) and later received a Carnegie Hero Medal for his bravery.

Este es el fin último de las organizaciones de “derechos humanos”.
Vean todo el caso, desde el inicio hasta el final que pretenden; cada uno de los pasos es parte de la “tutela de derechos humanos” conseguida con sus “luchas y conquistas”.
Jamás los escucharemos, no importa cuánto nos ataquen.
No tienen nada que venir a decirnos; más bien, nosotros deberíamos estar denunciándolos a ustedes por lo que le hacen a mujeres como Noelia.
El mundo necesita urgentemente liberarse de estas organizaciones, que no son más que los bufetes de abogados de los delincuentes, que prefieren LITERALMENTE matar a las víctimas en lugar de protegerlas.
