Well, I guess on some level, I'm as relieved as anyone else on this matter, but killing is not justice, at all. :I

Eh, he's dead anyways, so it really doesn't matter, but really, he didn't deserve it. He deserved to rot away in prison.

Bullet to the head, or the rest of my life in prison? I'd take the bullet.

That's a horrible troll, Gligar.

Shame on you.

D: I didn't mean it like that. It's just that he never even faced the consequences. Dying like that is instead of facing whatever he would have if caught, it's not fair.

The consequences for killing is death. It won't bring the dead back, but it's an adequate enough punishment.

This man has eluded our troops for almost ten years. If we incarcerated him, something would've gone wrong. At the very least, his Al-Qaeda buddies would probably have launched an effort to break him out of the slammer with the threat of actually succeeding. Then we'd be back to square one.

Killing him may not bring the victims of 9/11 back, but at least the mastermind behind it is dead too. Maybe you don't think killing is justice, but with him permanently out of the way, it's at least a considerable blow to Al-Qaeda.

Well, they can consider themselves lucky that they weren't the ones who got an attack, now can they?

That's true. Locking him up wouldn't bring the victims back either.

It's not that I don't think it isn't justice, I just don't think it's fair like how murder-suicide isn't fair.
It was a swift justice, I know that. I dunno what I think would be better. Thinking about it, I don't think prison would have been enough either.

Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but I think the point he was going for is that being killed off was the easy way out, and he would have suffered more rotting away for the rest of his life instead of making it quick.

More suffering = more punishment and retribution and all that.

Canada isn't a country of psychopaths. It's not like no one here cares.

Uh, psychopaths are generally not known for their empathetic skills, and can you imagine if someone said, "Oh well, we're lucky we didn't get an attack." much less an entire country thought so?

It's psychopathic to think that I'm thankful that it wasn't San Antonio's military bases that the terrorist attacks targeted?

I'm not sure I'm understanding your point.

You said Canada can consider itself lucky that is wasn't attacked, and I said that Canada wasn't made up of people who don't know what empathy is.

I wasn't calling you a psychopath, it's just, saying something like that in light of what happened to the U.S on 9/11 is kind of rude.
