Over the last few days, a viral video of a teen lifeguard saving a young boy has been all over every social media platform. The young lifeguard has been labeled a hero.
We’re going to bring this heroic young man, and his family, into the White House with, perhaps, the boy he saved, to give him a High Civilian Honor. Very brave, he deserves it! President DONALD J. TRUMP https://t.co/dGL15o1tIv

Even President Trump saw the video (after his son Eric commented on it) and he invited the young man to the White House. Wow! What an honor.
Of course, the Left had to get right to work being party poopers.
Excellent, can you stop the genocide in Gaza?

The life of Palestinians is also precious.
First of all, the 'Free Palestine' one track mind brigade had to weigh in. Starting to think these people are so dumb they can only regurgitate this one point over and over again like robots having a malfunction.
He will refuse to go - as he should! You are not our dictator! We do not accept your “praise” just to boast your own ego! How about extend an invite to an impoverished Muslim family living in Flint,MI? Oh…but of course the lifeguard is white.

Then, there was the insane blue haired dude who calls himself 'Doc' (of course it's a Ph.D)

Every single time.
I'm going to say it, since a lot of people are thinking it but are too worried about their online perception to vocalize it. This is not worthy of the highest civilian honor. When you award medals and honors to lesser acts of heroism, you devalue the award itself.

Then, there were the losers who have never accomplished anything in their miserable lives raining on the parade.
Imagine being 16 years old, fighting pounding surf, carrying another human being through the water while every wave is trying to pull both of you under.

The adrenaline gets you through the rescue. Then it wears off.
The exhaustion has to be overwhelming. Your muscles are spent,… https://t.co/oZeMfPSeUe
Absolutely! It's important to highlight bravery like this. We want to put young men behaving like this on a pedestal. It inspires others. Our country needs young people with heart.
16 year old Ryder Williams, is the best of America:

Kindness.
Selflessness.
Steadfastness.
Heroism.
Humility.
Brotherhood.
When I immigrated 43 years ago, this is exactly how I felt about this country. Watching this kid save a life brought that old feeling back. God bless him. https://t.co/BseekGkFCH pic.twitter.com/hDkcYOM2Os
If more of the next generation grows up like Ryder, our country will be in excellent hands. Let’s keep celebrating young people who do the right thing and spend far less time amplifying those who don’t. Don’t let the worst examples set the tone.
