Some of these security guards get paid next to nothing. If she’s making a lot more than minimum wages, I’ll be surprised.

So your opinion is that since she’s making $12 bucks an hour or perhaps considerably less, she shouldn’t be praised as a hero for risking her life to save others.

Ooooookaaaaaaayyyyyyyy...

Say, should we quit praising our troops in Iraq too, as heros? Just wondered.

See the original article as well as numerous posts making it clear that this woman was not a paid security guard, just a volunteer.

A “hero” is someone who goes way beyond their chosen/assigned duties, at great personal cost above any risk inherent in the job.
