Him being in the war will not change my mind on him winning/being evicted i dont think he's that entertaining and shouldnt win based on his past/disability.
I do however respect him for what he did or was willing to do for his country  |
War.
LOL.

He is a hero.
You are not.
He is a giant and you ought to wish you could have 1/2 the brass balls Steve had in not just taking a blast so others did not but also for the huge character in that guy for coming out a cheerful positive person who doesn't have to belittle others to feel bigger about himself.

Are you sure he willingly blew himself up? I'm not so sure. I think you might be making an assumption there.

It makes me laugh that the ones who go on about the hero stuff are probably pathetic little cowards who would poo their pants if they were sent to a war zone - probably the sort of people who expect others to fight for them, but would never in a million years do it themselves.

Because he wants to set the record straight, not against Steve himself, but against others who might call him a hero?
Also, this whole macho ass not being allowed to say a word about army folk unless you yourself are willing to pedal a plane into an Al Qaeda fortress armed with nothing but the grace of god and a small miniature terrier is really, really old.
Damn right I'm a coward when it comes to shipping myself to wars. I can still criticize.
