Bin Laden is dead

[Agoxlea]

It's nice to see something so great happen that everyone can enjoy and agree on despite their differences.

 

[Gyp Rosetti]

A serious (and destined to be unpopular) point: Isn't this video of people celebrating in front of the White House essentially destined to be "Bulletin Board material" at the equivalent of the next Al Qaeda staff meeting?

Agreed.

 

[Gameface]

I find some of the celebrating and all the media coverage of it to be sort of in poor taste

the guy on CNN just said this is such a historic moment and one that we all will remember for the rest of our lives, and we'll always know where we were and what we were doing when we heard the President announce that Bin Laden was dead - - maybe I have too many other "historic" moments to remember, I dunno, and I'm not sure where this is going to rank for me

Bin Laden is the only human being I've ever wanted dead. I'm celebrating! The only thing that dissapoints me about this is how long it took.

Congrats to the military on finally taking down this assclown.

I find celebrating any human being's death to be primitive and medieval. We should feel solemn that 9/11 happened just as we should be solemn that Osama went through a life to be constructed into such a horrible human being, that we had to kill him to prevent more deaths. There is nothing to cheer for here, just war. Some of you ****ing idiots don't understand that what you're doing is perpetuating the machine, cranking it over and over.

Yeah, I'd probably be ashamed if that POS was actually human.

Same thing they say about you. He was human, just like all of his followers taught to kill/hate us are human. The quicker we all accept that, the less war we have to see. But no, we're simply our ancestors from the dark ages with better technology.

Seriously, the world is making me sick right now, and I can't be the only one. I know most of you are joking, but the very idea we find these jokes as humorous reveals a deeper layer of lust for revenge inside us, or at least a dehumanizing of others that is really disturbing.

Oh, I never know if you're joking or completely serious. Please verify. Thanks!

So now that Bin Laden is dead can I bring shampoo on an airplane now?

I understand your viewpoint completely, and personally I'm offended by the slaughtering of civilians, regardless or which side is doing it. However, the fact that our country has been caught up in a **** storm caused by this a-hole for the last 10 years, I am glad he's gone.

I tried to rep you, but I've given out too much rep. I'll make it up to you later, big boy.

You probably say that to all the girls.

Right now? The world has been making me sick for a long time. I feel sick for the hundreds of thousands of innocent people who paid the price in the name of revenge. I don't feel sick for the guilty.
