I agree that bin laden needed to be dealt with and I am satisified by the fact that bin Laden can no longer harm another human being but I do not take pleasure because of this event (rubicon 5/3)

What was done, needed to be done, and a blight on this earth is no longer. I, too, am satisfied with the outcome of the Seals mission, but take no great pleasure in this event. Well said, Rubicon, thank you.
