[QUOTE="FishReaper, post: 38623, member: 203"] I agree, Bruce Jenner is far from a hero, I will not go into my thoughts on that subject as they do not belong on this thread. The word hero is very loosely used in this day and age. your a hero for being gay, your a hero for being a tranny, your a hero for many reasons. Im sorry i do not find these actions heroic, with these actions you are putting your wants and " needs" ahead of others. IMO you are being selfish attention magnets, But to be part of something much greater than ones self is in my eyes heroic. As Johnr Stated Firemen, Police, Military, and I will add other first responders in there as well. These are people who are signing up to put others first. they risk their safety for the public good. Some do it for the money but none of these pay that well, in fact I believe some where around 70% of firefighters in the US are on volunteer fire departments. So they are risking life and limb with no financial gain. Does simply signing up make you a hero, maybe not. But the untold storys of so many of our brothers and sisters doing things that many of us can only have nightmares about makes them my heros. [/QUOTE]
