Reaction on ISU campus to Bin Laden's death

Recorded from our dorm room window at 12 AM, May 2, 2011. These are all the students who marched around ISU campus, celebrating the death of Osama Bin Laden. I didn't join them. Sorry, kids, I have a math final tomorrow, lol

God Bless America!

Celebrating the death of anyone, no matter how cruel and evil he was, makes us a little too much like them. Poor taste in my opinion.

@cpallen13 I think many people are celebrating the justice that's been done rather than the death of a human being. At least, that's what I'm hoping most people are thinking about this.

Wow! I live in a rural area, so people are just talking in their front yards all excited about it. Great news, though.

@annadesu I saw a firework go off over the quad and a couple more down the street. It was madness!

@HybridD91 I am not a liberal... My point is I just think the media makes it look like the kids are united and marching to celebrate the death of a terrorist (which I really don't care... I was happy when I found out he was dead) when in reality, they were doing it because it was an excuse to party and get on TV hopefully.

@cpallen13 I thought liberals liked people like Osama? Damn, people don't know how to label liberals.

@Chagariffic and, I presume.....you are a homo. So every one of these kid's families were murdered by Bin Laden? Rightt... these kids were between 8-12 when 9/11 occured. I am not non-american for not throwing a party over Bin Laden's death... I believe he will get his punishment when he is judged by God, so what will myself celebrating do? I am not going to act like a stereotypical liberal college kid, and run around with my dick hanging out, just to get some attention... sorry.

@Twom44 So what you all are telling me is every one of these kids had a relative die in 9/11... please they were barely middle schoolers when it happened...Personally, I was glad Bin Laden was brought to justice. And when I heard the news, I was glad it was over. I just feel like all of these college walk outs and gatherings are done, just because everyone else is doing it, it was the cool thing to do.... You sir, are a complete and utter.............. FAG!

[Twom44]

@cpallen13 you are just another one of those over politically correct assholes. take all your friends and go sit down and watch a broadcast of 9/11 and see if you want to kill him. or go have an interview with a little girl who lost both of her parents in the tower that day. take yourself and all the other people like you and go FUCK yourselves!

God Bless America

@cpallen13 Ok here is a scenario for you. Ten years ago. a random man comes into your house, kills your entire family (except for you, of course). 10 years later, he's still on the run and hasnt been brought to justice. but half an hour ago, a police report comes in and says he's been killled in a shootout with police. What would you do kind sir? Sit on your couch and mourn his death? because im sure 99.99% of the earth's population would be glad and celebrate. I presume your non- american...

@Smallsthehero I thought liberals hated they're country?

By far the greatest college experience ever! Our campus really knows how to come together in rough times!
