A hero today is someone who does things you don’t want to do.

A cop is not a hero, unless he pulls someone out of a burning car.

I appreciate our military. I feel they should be honored. But not worshipped.

And to those who suggest our time in Iraq and Afghanistan was intended to protect our liberties, I might suggest they think about what liberties they had in 1975 and compare them to today.

Yes, I think hero is over used.

Pinheaded opinions aside, anyone who is taking fire for our country is a hero. Hero? - It is an understatement.
