osama.

“I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.” — Martin Luther King, Jr


america is celebrating, but we are foolish to think the death of this man will lead to anything, because this war is far from over, and we still have more problems than we know how to fix.

it's odd to me that so many thousands of people are genuinely happy about this. it's all so fucked up.

This is so true. I agree- this isn't going to help much. Except make people a fake happy. Because you can't be truly happy for killing somebody. It's all about revenge. You can't make peace by starting a war.
