That report is from 2 days ago and says that anyone could have put the woman there, she may have very well been trying to protect her husband. He shouldn't have let her defend him if she opted for it and he shouldn't have hid behind her in the first place. And stuff has changed since the report first came out.Father Time said:He didMegawat22 said:He didn't try to shoot anyone though. You're ignoring the part where I said he was unarmed. And he never hid behind his wife at all.Father Time said:He used her as a human shield. I think that's how she got shot.Megawat22 said:snip

Fuck you. You're not the final word on what's barbaric. It's not barbaric to celebrate the end of an evil reign and the death of a man who's been waging war on you. There is nothing wrong with celebrating good news and it harms nobody.Megawat22 said:Celebrating the death of a man is barbaric and it only makes you look as bad as the enemy. That's not up for dispute.
Although you're right on not giving him a grave I suppose. That wouldn't have worked out well.

And my country has hardly been unaffected by his attacks. There have been multiple bombings from his supporters in a war that wasn't ours to begin with. My country has sent our troops, special forces and gear out there to help America during a time we can't afford to. And how are we repayed? Reports of Americans celebrating in the streets and outside of the White House at the death of the biggest bargaining chip we could hope for. And he was right there. Unarmed.
And it's not the end of an evil reign at all. Quite the opposite. He was a figure-head. All that comes from his death are a few less recruits for a while and Al-Qaeda elect a new mascot.
Osama Bin Laden either gets replaced with some new blood hungry face who won't hold back or he goes down as a martyr. That's one heck of a victory!
