Tho I can't say that I'm the least bit sorry that this man is dead (if he really is), I do find it inappropriate to be celebrating and dancing in the streets. It reminds me of the videos I saw on 9/11 - of the bin Laden supporters - dancing and celebrating the terrible events of the day that transpired in the U.S. All I thought of when I saw those actions, was "how barbaric - how cold - how cruel and inhumane - and how can anyone celebrate mass death and destruction"??? Tho bin Laden did not deserve to walk with mankind, I don't feel a public display of joy and jubilation was called for. However, I did notice too, that most of the revelers last night were young people - many barely old enough when 9/11 took place, to know or understand what it was all about. As is typical of so many young people, they are quick to jump on a bandwagon without thinking first, but I suppose it's easy to get caught up "in the moment".
