To paraphrase an article I read....there's a lot of "frat boy" celebrating going on. I find that pretty repulsive. Mistreating a dead body is not a form of revenge, it's not funny, or brave, or necessary, regardless of what that person did while they were alive.
We are Americans*. We always brag about being the best country in the world. Well, let's prove it, and act a little more classy.
*those celebrating-- I'm aware there are other countries represented on TFP
