I'll grant Oofta tossed out 'to each his own' at the end, but I'm hear'n the 1TW from both of you, there...
I'm not saying there's one true way to play the game, but I see the word hero used waaaaaaay too often and inappropriately.
Newscaster: "He picked up the toddler walking by himself and took him into the store. He's a hero!"
People: "Everyone in the armed forces is a hero!"
And so on.
A hero is a hero because they were at serious risk and acted anyway. If there's not a serious risk, there's really not heroism going on. There was no risk going on with the toddler. Was he a good guy? Yep, but not a hero. The same with people who joined the armed forces and don't go to war. The guy dropping drones on people from the middle of Nebraska isn't a hero.
