I have mixed emotions on his death. Because of my faith I hate to see him die because after all, he was a human (and I'm pretty sure I know where he went after he died). However from a different point of view I think it's a great leap for both justice and our incredible freedom.

Someone said what I feel better than any words I can come up with:

I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”

I honestly dont feel bad at all for him being dead. This is the one time where I can feel good for someone getting killed.

People do change but as of this very moment in time my feelings are:

To everything there is a season. There are times of peace, and times of war, and have been since the beginning of civilizations. If I were in charge of a growingly faithless nation and knew another country contained a dangerous leader who saw me and my people as inferior souls because we weren't of his religion (no mater how much I tried to love and make peace with him) and he was insistent and hellbent on causing more death, hell, and destruction to my country as he had before, my results may very well have been the same.

Well I for one am glad the sorry piece of Monkey Crap is now being aten by fish. The way I see it this sorry excuse of a HUMAN BEING was the one who did help kill almost three thousand Human Beings in the US. I say he got off lucky with getting a 'Double Tap' to the body.

Martin Luther King Jr did not say that.

Yeah, I know. I saw it on the news after I posted that. I edited my post above to remove any references to MLK.

While I was a Sgt in the Marine Corps, I still stand by the sentiment in the quote regardless of who came up with it.
