In my opinion, The death of a man does not make him a hero. It is the oath that he swears to, that makes him a hero.<br />Marines, Navy, Chicago police or fire department, whatever. If you swear to an oath to defend my Life or liberty, you are a hero to me. It's that simple.J.O.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12180244268084796661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477626023528352764.post-40843624834187260182012-06-02T11:03:25.272-04:002012-06-02T11:03:25.272-04:00Obama hung a freedom medal on Delores Huerta who i...Obama hung a freedom medal on Delores Huerta who is the honorary chairman of the democtatic socialists of America.<br />He isn't fit to drape a collar on a dog.-Sepphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11187463448901564093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477626023528352764.post-43583116437514527932012-06-01T20:39:09.098-04:002012-06-01T20:39:09.098-04:00Excellent point, Sepp. I feel that way about real...Excellent point, Sepp. I feel that way about real Christians too. Those that tell you what a good Christian they are, seldom really are a Christian.<br /><br />I have known heroes too. Lots of em.

Hard to call them "heroes". What about those who managed to stay alive, arguably the more difficult feat? After all, it's EASY to get yourself killed in combat. Anyone can do it. So, what do we call the living ones? And how about the guys who really ARE heroes, the guys who are awarded medals for valor? What's the term then?<br /><br />"Hero" has become pretty meaningless as a descriptive nowadays, IMO.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477626023528352764.post-38374356496940686882012-05-31T18:32:28.922-04:002012-05-31T18:32:28.922-04:00Jon,

As a result, the structure burned to the ground, and other structures burned, until the truck could be replaced.

The odds of getting shot as a cop in Onslow County are so close to zero, they may as well be zero. Yet all these cops wear them, even in court, where everyone goes in through a metal detector. And, I must admit, the metal detector at the courthouse pisses me off. There has never been an incidence of violence at our courthouse, yet everyone who enters has to be searched? Some people go to the courthouse for such things as marriage licenses and birth certificates. Why are the cops and robbers (judges) scared of everyone?Tenth Generation Patriothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191408658143390459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477626023528352764.post-27336215557739753392012-05-31T15:37:12.752-04:002012-05-31T15:37:12.752-04:00Like all the firefighters' wives who ended up ...Like all the firefighters' wives who ended up as multi-millionaires because their husbands died doing what was expected of them.

What I mean by that, is that sometimes the words coming out of my mouth do not necessarily match what my brain is thinking. However, him admitting that he may be wrong, does in fact make him a beat-off.<br /><br />Now, I'm going to disagree with your statement about the firefighters. I understand why you have that opinion, but it is wrong. Firefighters & Policemen serving the general public Welfare. The same as soldiers who defends the general public's freedom. If a soldier dies in combat because of a roll-over accident, weapon misfire, or friendly fire. They are still heroes none the less. Same can be said for the said Firemen. They took a corner a little to fast, not because of their lack of driving skills, but because of the urgency to help the common citizen. It would be comparable to a Fireman running into one of the Towers on 9/11, but getting struck by a taxi. The man would be running into a burning building because of urgency to help citizens. Dying in the "Line of Fire" is not what makes these men heroes. The fact that they took oaths and pledges, to defend us common citizens is what makes them heroes. In my opinion, they should be looked upon as such.<br />I do agree with the super hero comment though.J.O.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12180244268084796661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3477626023528352764.post-11734530863705373862012-05-31T04:54:26.694-04:002012-05-31T04:54:26.694-04:00Good point and I agree.
