So ...I have something to say...and for some it may be "anti-American" what ever the hell that means now a days...
Its regarding ...the death of well..we all know who...by now and if u don't well maybe u live under a rock...Osama Bin Laden.
I am not happy, nor do I feel relieved that he is dead, nor do I feel a great satisfaction, and honestly if any one had any type of sense...they shouldn't, I do not agree with what the man did, he hurt many many people...and yes they all deserved justice and they all deserved peace, but in all honesty this will not bring a person back nor will it make the world a better place, in fact ...everyone is on maximum alert and waiting for retaliation...which is expected.
I don't believe in God, so I am not going to say that there is only one person who has the right to provide justice by killing, but that certainly brings me to my next question...I wonder how many anti-abortion people celebrated his death...which would be very hypocritical, I mean killing is killing, period. Whether its an unborn baby, or an old man ...if you are going to call a woman a killer for "killing" an unborn child, then the person or people who killed the man are killers as well...I wonder how many Christians "celebrated" his death, people who day in and day out preach peace and that do believe in the justice of God...any way...that doesn't matter...that's not even my point at this time...
My point is ...well...how can people "celebrate" the death of ONE man...when here in the United States of America....kids are being bullied in schools to the point of killing themselves under the pressure, women are being emotionally and physically abused every day by their abusive spouses or significant others, immigrants are being attacked because of the bigot thinking of some, children are going to bed hungry because there wasn't enough to eat...did the death of this man, who yes, I agree caused terror, solve any of the problems that the people in the U.S live every single day of their lives? Women who have to look over their shoulder afraid that their abusive lover is coming after her...will that put some more food on that child's plate? Will that stop "Joey" from tantalizing "Harry" in school...etc...I honestly don't think so.
That's why when I heard of the mans death, my words were..."oh well". Yes I was curious, yes I watched CNN and watched the President announce his death, awesome speech btw, but well everyone knew that one day it was going happen, the man was going to be caught either dead or alive that was a given.
The man is dead and hopefully the victims of that tragic day got some peace. although I know that memories as tragic as those can not be erased by time ..hopefully they feel that at least some justice is served, because every one else, seems to think that they should or they do for them...and If they don't...then who are we to say that they are ungrateful...
well that is my opinion...I wonder if any one ever comes across this blog and reads this thinks I should die along with the man...or what not...
