I agree with her on this... I'd be all school girl stupid happy ecstatic if they caught him right away.... not years later. 9/11 isn't fixed now. The man's death isn't a big band aid that will keep us safe; it's only going to escalate with retaliation... which is already being promised by his followers who have had lots of time to plot.
They kicked a hornets nest.
I'm not celebrating.
It's certainly a fair thing of her to say, and many people on my fb have been posting the MLK quote about not rejoicing over the death of anyone, and the Ghandi quote about an eye for an eye making the world blind...I give people credit for taking the high road, but I wouldn't preach it to anyone that they should take the high road. Everyone is going to react differently to this.
I'm not celebrating the situation, I'm celebrating the death of a mass murderer.
I have lost family members and good friends to this war, and I'll be damned if anyone is going to tell me that I don't have the right to be happy about him being dead.
I know that his death will not fix the situation that we are in, but I can be happy that he's dead. Every person close to me that I've lost was vindicated the day he was killed. And even though it doesn't change the fact that they are gone, it sure as hell is justice served.

:nod::nod:The man's death isn't a big band aid.
The situation is his death, which is what you and people are treating like the 4th of July. Tomato, potato.
I never said anything about people have no right be be happy he's dead.
Vindicated? Theirs deaths are now justified by the death of another? 9/11 is suddenly absolved? The balance is restored? tic for tack.... that's what you are saying.
And this is what I'm saying, this... makes us no different than them:
