Chris Turner a real hero.

I was going to post more of my ideas about health care today, but I saw this story on the TV this morning. I’ll get back to the health care tomorrow.




First of all, Chris Turner, deserves thanks for making me feel younger. I’m 41 years old and to see reports of a 62 year old man fighting and winning reminds me that I’m not that old.



I have to disagree with him, however, about being a hero. I can only imagine how he feels about being called that, but it’s true. Without him the deaths of the guards would have been just part of a tragedy where thirty some odd people died. I know they were just doing what they had to do in a tough situation, but that is what heroes do. Heroes also tend to deny that they are heroes. He earned the title by his actions. He’s not going to get rid of the title with words.
