The hero cop who ended the bloody rampage at Fort Hood by pumping four bullets into the crazed gunman even though she was wounded is known for her toughness, friends say.Before relocating to Texas, civilian police Sgt. Kimberly Munley spent about five years as a cop in North Carolina where she forged a reputation as a no-nonsense officer.
"I'd like to say I'm surprised, but I'm really not," said close friend Drew Peterson, 27.
"She was born and bread to be a police officer. If you were ever to be in a fight, she'd be the first person to stand up next to you and back you up. She's a tough cookie."
Munley's toughness and grace under pressure were on display Thursday when she and her partner responded within three minutes of reported gunfire, said Army Lt. Gen. Bob Cone.

Boy sh1tty journalism going on more and more. I was a copy editor during my schooling.
“born and bread”...? WTH
It’s BRED, not BREAD. MSM idiots.
Let’s hear it for the girl!
(What do we know about the mosque he attended in Virginia? IIRC it’s been mentioned before...”
Believe the lovely lass was bred and not “bread” to be a cop.
Praise God for Sgt. Munley!
At the risk of being flamed here, I have to take exception to the word “hero” being bandied about so freely. She was called to the scene and she did her job. I congratulate her for doing her job so well, but I would venture to say that even she would agree that she’s not a hero by definition, which does not diminish her act in any way.
Bump
Obama...”give her ‘bred’ and circuses”!
Bush would’ve been at Ft Hood by now and visited Munley in the hospital!
The teachable moment here is:
An American Woman Took down one of your tiny zib brethern!
An American Woman Stopped Jihad Nidal!
An American Woman Doesn’t take shit off any two bit, mealy mouthed, American hating muslim.
A Woman, An American Woman, bested your guy.
First flame: if you do your job well while someone is shooting at you, you are a hero.

Flopping Aces is a blog ... it’s not MSM.
So many people use the word “hero” for everyone — celebrities and sports figures included. True heroism is often overlooked.
Regardless of whether you consider her actions as heroic...bravo to her. She did her job and did it well.
Any further word on her condition?
Someone should watch her back.
I tell you what the next time you are shot through both legs by a Muslim terrorist and then still manage to drop him, I’ll call you a hero too.
She's a hero.....
I guess it really depends on your definition. Here are two possibilities... I think she fits at least one of them:
a person of distinguished courage or ability, admired for brave deeds and noble qualities.
or
a large sandwich, usually consisting of a small loaf of bread or long roll cut in half lengthwise and containing a variety of ingredients, as meat, cheese, lettuce, and tomatoes.
Or mentally disciplined and well-trained.
