How is this any different from what we called barbaric when the crowds in Fallujah were celebrating the dead American bodies hanging from the bridge? Because non of us are defiling the body but we are celebrating an end to a very long ordeal. I'm not glad someone has died but I am sure as fuck glad this asshole doesn't get to kill another human being. I agree with the last part of what you said, but a celebration is not appropriate. A sense of relief, a sense of justice, even a sense of vengeance, but to turn it into a party? I do not know about anyone else, but my feelings have quickly turned to that of grief. Yes, it was almost 10 years ago, but this is kinda bringing it back for me. I am just sad, I am sad, and I just want to take a moment to let it sink in.... if nothing else, we haven't forgotten, have we? None of us have forgotten....
