GoFundHim: Umpqua Hero Chris Mintz

From: Boy Culture
Mintz heroically urged others to safety.
With so much focus (and rightfully so) on the monster that Umpqua Community College shooter Chris Harper Mercer was, I like that at least some of the attention he craved is being diverted to Chris Mintz, the 30-year-old dad who stood up to the little creep, getting himself shot not five (as was previously reported) but seven times in the process. 

Mintz offers a smile from his hospital bed.
 Already pumped full of bullets, Mintz told the gunman it was his son's birthday.

 A hastily arranged GoFundMe page—apparently set up by Mintz's cousin, and containing a picture of the hero after surgery—has soared past $20K in donations, with no real signs of slowing down.
Mintz is quickly becoming an online sex symbol
... hot on the heels of being shot nearly to death
