Heroes for Today: A German, two lesbians, a mayor and a prime minister…

…and, hell: a whole slew of plain, ordinary Norwegian citizens of all faiths and colors:

Meanwhile, here’s the German, who saved as many as 30 people from the frigid waters in his small boat. He didn’t stop making trips out to find them until he saw the police coming.

And here are the lesbians (a lawfully married couple, no less!), who saved 40 people in theirs. They were shot at by the terrorist, too. Their boat was riddled with bullet holes.

Here’s the Mayor of Oslo…

…and the Prime Minister of Norway.

Heroes all.
