Seattle Pacific University Shooting Hero Flooded With Wedding Gifts

 Jon Meis and Kaylie Sparks (via Facebook)

This simply warms my heart:
The student hero who police say subdued a gunman and prevented a wider killing spree at a Seattle college this week hasn’t spoken publicly about his actions that day — but the Internet sure has, and it’s putting its money where its mouth is.
As of Saturday, an online fundraiser had raised more than $23,000 for Jon Meis, who is apparently engaged and has an open wedding registry. The registry was found by members of the popular Internet site Reddit and quickly made the rounds online.
Meis is getting married to his fiancee Kaylie Sparks in just two weeks on June 21. Their wedding registry has been entirely bought out.
