People die every day. At least this man died for a righteous cause. May God bless his soul and his cause.

Please, you can give it a break as well... Up here in Phoenix we just had a kid shot last night at a bar, so yes you can die doing about anything, anywhere in the world. At least the soldier was serving his country when he passed.

Gee, Joe....Yes, people die every day. Most are accidents or natural causes. To be expected. I was refering to the use of the word "righteous" as being inappropriate. "Necessary", perhaps, but "rightious" infers some moral or religious connotation as would "noble". The man was doing his job and he died. Not from accident, not from natural causes. The family mourns.
Clearer now?
