Wow, I never said he should have jumped in. I said calling him a hero because he threw a rope was too much.

If it would have been you wife, daughter or grand-daughter I bet he would have been a hero to you. No on second thought maybe not you seem the type that still wouldn’t see it. Sad world we live in when someone saves a live and all someone can do is complain because of some one used some verbiage they don’t approve of.

Yeah, but throwing her a rope doesn’t make him a hero.

Yeah, maybe so, but your snide comment could have been saved for another thread. What the heck were you thinking with that reply?

He saved a little girl's life!

I went back and re-read the article several times. It says that the neighbors hailed the farmer as a 'hero'. Just the neighbors.

Had it not been for the actions of Nicole, Betty and Avtar, that babygirl would have drowned.

If I had seen that effort and been a neighbor, much less a parent, DAMNED STRAIGHT I would consider it "HEROIC"!

When I realize...I’m wrong...I generally just apologize and move on.

Please stop, everyone thinks you’re a creep. You keep going you hit psychopath territory. Stop while you’re still behind.
