Someday I'm hoping people will grow up, look around, and realize that the REAL heroes are those who live their life day by day, the teachers, the cop on the street, the parents working by day and teaching their kids the right way to live. The kids who go thru school not getting into trouble. Not the celebrities/sports figures whose only accomplishment is out of control drinking, drugging and sleeping around.

While I agree with your general point about Paris, how are your "real heroes" any different? They just exist, die, and are forgotten. Kids who never get into trouble are kids who stay within the "safe" boundaries and will never discover anything new or have an original thought. "the right way to live" seems relative to the time and place you grow up in.
Heroes break rules sometimes. Sometimes they break whole systems. So again, while I agree with your statements about near-worship of vapid nobodies whose only claim to fame is inherited cash and a general lack of inhibitions, I don't know about your yardstick for heroism.
