Well then I guess I'm just going to have to cross Martin Luther King, Ghandi, and Nelson Mandala off my list of heros. They never ran into a burning building to save someone...they just followed their Ideals.
And as far as the "left his wife" analogy. With that logic are you saying that a lot of the married Firefighters and Police officers that "Chose" to do that for a living are selfish just because they aren't considering there wives and families when they enter a burning building or respond to an armed robbery.
I agree that we throw the term around WAY to much. But I don't have any problem throwing it in their direction as opposed to some of the other places we use it.
