A bit of a different take:

Yes, I would have loved for OBL to have been captured, but, with this administration, that would have just given him a platform to spew more of his vitriol.

Or, that his body would have been brought back to the US and hung by his privates from the Empire State Building, but then he would have become even more of a martyr.

Or even wrapped in a pig carcass before becoming shark bate, but that would have been a waste of a good pigskin.

I believe that we did exactly the right thing, not only because there weren’t many good options, but because I don’t know of any other country in the world that would have done what we did - despite wanting to, and having every right to, extract vengeance, we can all be proud to be Americans as a result of the professionalism and dignity displayed by Seal Team Six and their colleagues!

‘-———from the Empire State Building.’

I posted a comment (333) before I completely read this thread.
See we’re thinking of the same edifice - - -
