Fair enough. The only reason I'm praising him is because I think he, like Tom Burnett and Jeremy Glick and Jeff Beamer and the others, gave his life in order to prevent something worse. I'm praising him because I think in that, he showed just as much character as the others. I think I can respect and praise that without automatically saying everything he did was right. I would hope so, anyway. As I said, they're two different things. Neither thing cancels out the other. Going out as a hero doesn't mean he led a clean life. Not leading a clean life doesn't make him a coward, either. Bingham wasn't a saint. He was a hero.
