This would be a perfect time for America to apologize
for the thousands upon thousands killed in the wars we used OBL to justify.

3. There probably will be an apology for the Iraq War someday, far in the future.
But, not for our actions in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

6. Kick and Recommend.
Instead of a police action to apprehend a suspect, we got three wars with the promise of more on the horizon.

USA USA. It's a great place to make a buck off death. Not much good for anything else these days, though.

7. Our troops are still there. Can't do that to them, imho.
But we can get them the hell home. :)

13. The death of this one man seems so small in comparison.

Maybe that's why people are spurred to celebrate so much, to try to balance out that feeling of utter inadequacy. :hug:
