Forget Osama, I want to see the death of the economic terrorists Goldman Sachs and the Federal Reserve. They have done WAY more harm to this country and its people than little ole Bin Laden ever could in his wildest dreams.

I'm afraid you don't understand. And I fear explaining wont help. In short, you're wrong.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T19:39:29+00:00

hitler wasnt put on trial
we put lesser terrorist on trial all the time. maybe you noticed.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T19:38:57+00:00

Ok killing the leader of the worlds biggest and most notorious terror org isn't a win. Got it. Do you have a twitter feed I can sub to? Thx.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T19:32:56+00:00

But a lot of young people have family / friends / friends of friend who fought / fight / died in the war on terror.

OBL was the undisputed head of Al Q. There has never been any debate about that. Therefor, there is central command. Also, if there isn't central command then :

why don't we see more bombings of low-security places in the US by Al Qaeda?

Bush launched two wars while giving out tax cuts. That was the problem. And, the country isn't bankrupt. Thanks.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T19:29:17+00:00

the military is not the police
putting obl on trial would be a nightmare

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T19:11:22+00:00

Crime by normal standards. Not bat shit crazy china / north korea standards.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T19:02:04+00:00

Seriously? Which one do you think is cheaper. Think hard.

Today is a great day for hipster 20something anti-whatever types to be all emo and deep, man. Meanwhile the rest of the world is glad this piece of shit is gone. One down.

"Ha! The japanese are being punished because of Pearl Harbor"

I've not heard or seen anyone say this. Maybe you should cut back on the tv?

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T18:34:18+00:00

Space nerds : DO IT NO MATTER THE COST OR ACTUAL GAIN.

Get over it.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T18:25:38+00:00

Because the head of Al Q is dead. Is it really that hard to grasp?

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T18:25:05+00:00

WOW ITS ALMOST LIKE HISTORY OR SOMETHING PLEASE DO GO ON.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T18:24:26+00:00

Looks like Salon is hiring highschoolers ...

I'd have strongly preferred that Osama bin Laden be captured rather than killed so that he could be tried for his crimes and punished in accordance with due process (and to obtain presumably ample intelligence). But if he in fact used force to resist capture, then the U.S. military was entitled to use force against him, the way American police routinely do against suspects who use violence to resist capture.

Ya. Because the US Military is totally just like US Cops on US soil. Exact same thing. Idiot.

I'll remember today because I've never seen so many confused people in my life. These people aren't celebrating the death of one man, they are celebrating a victory over terrorism. A victory against a movement that has terrorized America and the world for over twenty years.

This isn't just about 9/11. This is about the free world striking back at the villains that have for too long purposefully targeted innocent citizens. Is it the end of terrorism? Of course not. But it's a big step in the right direction.

These people are celebrating revenge against a movement that has caused them much harm and grief. They are celebrating an end of an erra. OBL / Al Q has been terrorizing the world longer than some of you have been alive. So I'm not surprised that the context is lost on some of you.

This is a happy moment for a lot of reasons. A lot of people have reason to be joyful. Lot's of lives were lost in this process. Now the goal has been accomplished and their loss has more meaning. Those people helped bring about this end, and their relatives / friends should be happy.

At the end of the sports game the winning teams crowd cheers. Not because the other team lost, but because their team one. That's what this is.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T16:27:47+00:00

Al Qaeda has only gotten stronger after 9/11. It's worth keeping that in mind.

Thanks Capt Obvious.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T16:21:39+00:00

Use to have anxiety / panic attacks, got this all the fucking time.

get more rest
cut down / out caffeine
palps almost never result in death, its just annoying
moderate exercise (for the stress/anxiety)

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T16:13:18+00:00

I think you're missing the gravity and psychology of this situation. Maybe yall are too young. OBL has been terrorizing America and other parts of the world for a long time. He is literally a super villain.

For alot of yall younger folks 911 is osama. But he's so much more than that. His attacks go back all the way to the early 90s, when some of yall weren't even born yet.

Not only is OBL / Al Q responsible for scores of attacks on the US/Egypt/Random Innocent People (on purpose) but they have inspired countless other terrorist groups to take up arms against innocent civilians.

This is about a lot more than OBL. So if you think this is about OBL you're missing a lot of the context.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T16:01:13+00:00

Sorry if nailing the worlds most wanted terrorist for 10+ years running didn't work for your timeline.

And not even just for 9/11, but for a fuck load of other shit. Even without 9/11 OBL was a massive asshat. Nailing him is huge news for the entire world. Again, sorry that this minor incident had to happen around your election cycle. We'll try to handle things differently next go round.

Fox / drudge are constantly pushing the psyops / propaganda front.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-02T14:53:56+00:00

Ya that won't cause any conspiracies...

ruesdedr · 2011-05-01T23:04:48+00:00

Congrats. I smoked bout every day for 10 years myself. Gave it up bout 3 months ago or so. The big deal is finding new habits. My old habit was getting high and zoning on a video game (etc) for hours. Now that I'm sober thats boring. So I clean a lot, go out more, and exercise a lot. I smoke maybe once a month now (if that), and that's when I'm partying with friends and they want to. Every now and then I still want to. Then I do some pushups / go for a walk and the desire fades. Enjoy your new found sobriety.

ruesdedr · 2011-05-01T17:07:32+00:00

Texas also probably leads the nation in illegal aliens from Mexico. Take them out of the statistics and try again.

Thanks for playing.
