Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
-Jesus Christ
Dear Readers,
I haven't been on the internet for a while now, so this post is a little out-dated, but I wrote this the day after I learned of the death of Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden was the most famous terrorist in the world, and was found guilty for the tragic happenings on September 11, 2001. Navy Seals found him and shot him in the face, along with one of his wives, on May 1, 2011. I wasn't going to post anything about the news until I saw what was happening on television the next day. This is what really FUCKING PISSED ME OFF: Americans were celebrating. Yes, for the entire following week, there were parties nation wide celebrating the death of Bin Laden. I'm not saying he shouldn't have been shot. He was responsible for the deaths of thousands of people. But, be it so, he was one of the most intelligent people on earth. I mean, he was on the very top of America's Most Wanted List for a decade, and the United States government could not find him. It was a sad day the day he took the path of an extremist martyr to kill as many people as he could. One of the most tragic days of civilization. But we celebrated his death. We should have mourned. We should have been hurt that such a smart man had to die. I remember, in the weeks following 9/11, watching on CNN as people in the Middle East had parties in their streets, celebrating the deaths of thousands of Americans. Everyone in America cried and sobbed and asked how could you do such a thing??? If it was so terrible they did it, why in the FUCK would we be here 10 years later doing the same thing?? Aren't we supposed to be the bigger person? Aren't we supposed to be more loving and non-violent? What happened to that?
To all you American Idiots out there celebrating the death of a fellow human being, shut the fuck up and open your eyes. Never should any human being with any intellect what-so-ever celebrate the death of one of our own kind.
Peace, Love, and Harmony,
-Me.
