I did not celebrate Osama's death and frankly, I'm a little annoyed at all these people that are going crazy over it. He's dead, a lot of other people are dead, and this will probably cause more death and destruction. I guess I can't help feel like he was executed by the soldiers that found him even though he should face trial or something similar.

That said, our military did a great job, and they always do (as a whole). I'm proud of them but I always have been.

I celebrated.
I rocked the tunes in my car loud, I smiled and waved at strangers, and I gave the thumbs up to every other person I saw smiling for no reason because we were all happy for the same reason.
It was symbolic, it was revenge, it was dirty justice, and I wish they would have stuffed a pork chop in his mouth and a pig's dick in his ass before they dropped him in the drink.
I hope Christians and Jews did his ceremonial washing with their left hand right after wiping their ass.
I hope the bullet that killed him was taken out and coated in gold as a medal for the shooter.
I hope they used some sophisticated guidance / sinking system so his fish food face never points toward Mecca again.
I'm glad he's dead and I feel nothing but pity for those of you who don't feel the same.

Oh some of these responses make me chuckle, especially feeling pity for people who don't feel the same as you, no one needs your pity, and what's this new infatuation with shoving things up people's asses? It's kind of more disturbing than the celebrating of one mans death, like it's going to change anything, other than let people think they accomplished something during these wars, but I guess oem need something to stroke their egos, so stroke away fellas, I'll stay here and chuckle.

It seems the whole thing started innocently enough, when an American-born, Japanese-based English teacher named Jessica Dovey amended an actual Dr. King quote from his 1963 sermon compilation The Strength to Love with her own personal sentiments (see above).

Dovey’s words, clearly marked in the original post as being separate from the King quote, were then copied wholesale by her Facebook friends, and quickly spread throughout the web as a single, solitary quote attributed to MLK.

So now you know.

Yes, I celebrated when his death was announced- I tend to like it when people that want to kill me and everyone I know are killed.....

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 :)

I'm personally ashamed of how the world has reacted. This country has become no more important.
