On Saturday, I wrote about the 50-death-count New Zealand mosques massacre and quoted a man named Abdul Aziz Wahabzadah (here).
At the time, Abdul’s available witness account involved him throwing — of all things — a credit card reader at the mass murderer outside Christchurch’s Linwood Islamic Centre.
When the culprit exited the mosque, Abdul picked up a discarded “shotgun” and chased after him (see here).
The assailant cursed at Abdul and took off in his car. The churchgoer chased him down the street.
Well, now we have a video of the brave man recounting the event.
Before the getaway, the shooter fired at Abdul. The discarded shotgun was shell-less, so Abdul threw it like a spear.
Let’s face it: The guy’s a thrower.
He’s also a hero.
“My only concern was to save other people,” he says in the interview.
“I was screaming to the guy, ‘Come — I’m here! Come — I’m here!'”
Like Rocky 4.
Show him who’s boss, Abdul!
The world needs more like him: a selfless man trying to save his family, his fellow congregants, his community.
Enjoy the video below, and if you’re so inclined, remember the victims of a horrific evil — where men, women, and children were murdered while attending church — in your prayers.
For more implications of the murders, go here and here.
