By now, I'm sure that most of you have heard the news. Osama Bin Laden has been killed.
While I am happy that a terrorist group has lost its leader, I am still somewhat saddened. I know that Bin Laden was an absolutely terrible human being. However, that does not make me want to rejoice in his death. A celebration at the death of any human being makes me sick to my stomach.
I'm torn at this moment. I am happy that Al Quaeda will be (hopefully) shut down by the loss of their leader (although I think it's probably just as likely that they will amp up their efforts). I still cannot find it within myself to rejoice in the death of another human being.
