I agree that it seemed weird that people were out so fast celebrating like we won a hockey game or something. The news got announced and crowds formed up in like 20 minutes on a Sunday night? I mean it was after 10pm Eastern time when this was announced so it’s a little weird that people ran out to celebrate. Also, it was in bad taste to celebrate someone getting killed, even if it was OBL. Forgive me that, but I’d expect that kind of thing from the barbarians in the Middle East and not from Americans.

I can never remember Americans celebrating a killing, or the success of an individual military operation. This is odd, or probably mostly an Obama for reelection rally trying to give him some military cred.
