    I disagree. He did what he did in the service of our country, likely saving lives of others serving by being good at what he did.

    Does that mean anyone who serves in a war and kills the enemy is not deserving of being considered a hero?
    My children are my legacy.

    So did (and do) thousands of others, just bandying the word 'hero' around casually cheapens it for all of them.

    In your idiotic opinion. Some go above and beyond which is why some but not all get medals for their achievements.

    Ignorance personified.

    The term hero describing him is not used casually whatsoever.

    He saved countless lives, documented.

    Whitney used crack and died in a Hollywood bathtub from drugs.

    One got a mention from our POS POTUS.

    One got.......nothing.

    You personify ignorance daily with your constant trolling threads. I hope others don't mind too much if I don't share the ramblings of someone like you with such a bent moral compass.
