I also feel the need to clarify something. The number of people responding saying "a murder should never be celebrated," really? There is NO ONE celebrating a death. In any case, death is terrible. However ANY criminal, in any situation, who resists arrest with a firearm is going to get shot. Period. And this particular man, guilty of murdering thousands of people, in a number of countries around the world, is no different. I'm sure the military would have loved to take him alive. The wealth of information he could have given us would have been incredible. But he didn't surrender. Nor did he give that chance, of life, of escaping a tragic death, to the thousands of people he mercilessly killed over the years. So before you judge the people celebrating, think. It's not his death they are cheering. It's the end of his influence, his vitriol, his psychotic propaganda. The world is a better place with him gone. And I for one am proud of the US military for providing all of us with such security. #USA
