I disagree. But I think the word "hero" has many definitions.
Young and old people fighting wars our government forces them into are heros.
Police and firefighters that run INTO danger most of us would run AWAY from are heros.
A single parent raising their children right is a hero.
A person standing up to discrimination is a hero.
An olympic star and American icon coming out like Jenner is a hero to many too afraid to do the same with much less fanfare.

Your anger and ego will always reveal your true self.
