@ejones787 Oh I've seen some really crazy videos from other campuses. PennState's was crazy too

I'm glad the death of another human being brings you satisfaction and joy - that is so dissimilar to the way our enemies feel every time an American soldier dies. Everyone who feels this has brought a sense of order to the world, rather than a proliferation of chaos, can suck a red, white, and blue dildo. Killing bin Laden may have been a necessary evil, but evil of any kind should never be a cause for celebration.

@swimfreak430 I see it as more of a celebration of USA then the death of a terrorist. When world war two ended most didn't celebrate the fact that we killed thousands of our enemies, we celebrated that fact that the death was finally over. Hopefully we are celebrating that the death will soon be over. On both sides of the spectrum.

@Geistsoul13 IF you think killing osama has any effect on the war on terror you are incredibly naive. when WWII ended we signed a treaty with the axis forces. this war will not end unless we pull our troops out. every terrorist leader could be executed and there would still be war. an Idea in such a violent place carries more weight than any person can. how do you get rid of an Idea? osama was a figurehead. the only significance of his death is to appease the ego of the american patriot

@swimfreak430 As my good friend Abdulla said on RtnCh5 "People Die, Ideas Don't"

To all the people who are complaining about us americans celebrating the death of the leader of Al Quida, you should know that he did plan the nine eleven attacks, that killed thousands of people. He had it coming to him.

@Geistsoul13 where the cops lettin them do it

[realkingkado]

Wait till the dollar collapses and they'll be singing 'FUCK obama'

[BlazerT10]

Wow Americans have proved themselves to be no better than the terrorists who celebrated when 9/11 happened. Yes I'm American, but I wasn't cheering. Mainly because killing Osama does nothing. Al Qaeda will always bring a new leader to the stand. Even if you kill all of them, more will come. As Geistsoul13 said ''People die. ideas don't.''

@swimfreak430 Shut the fuck up you prick. Taking down one of the most dangerous men in the world is cause for celebration. Go suck a dick you liberal douche

[videomagnet06]

i moved out of the townhouses last semester.....so sorry i missed this!

[Mercy4theweak]

@swimfreak430 False. Any leader of an idea strengthens it and makes it something realistic to hold on to. Action requires leadership or a figurehead. You may not be able to get rid of an idea but allowing them to oppress those who decide to live a different way can't be allowed. Ideas can be altered as were many in our history, which is why today Earth is no longer thought to be the center of the universe. If you think killing him had no effect on the war on terror you are sorely mistaken.
