I respect your feelings, however I have been horrified by the celebrations and the posturing by what appears to me to be mostly young cocky college kids. If anything this posturing solidifies his arguments on americas lack of morality. I truly feel that Bin Laden was an asshat, however that does not make him any less a human being. And for me any life taken should be done so with respect and solemnity and a bit of regret. Which I have no doubt those Seals did anyone who is that close to life and death has a bigger respect for it than the rest of us who may only see it on TV. I guess what really bothers me about this whole thing is we are becoming that which we loathe, we are celebrating death even if it is a deserved death. Still Love you though:)
