| 2. I don't do newspaper polls |
|
Whether anyone approves or not, this is how we live. Life and death is instantly available on the net.
Slightly two-faced of the Guardian, who live blogged and tweeted the events. Now they are trying to generate news from outrage. You should be able to see through this.

| 4. So you see no difference with reporting on a current |
|
event and showing photos of the dying and dead man.
Can I therefore assume that you had no problem with the Iraqis showing four dead soldiers hanging from a bridge?
That also offended me as a human being.

What's next? Would you like to assume I torture small animals?
Look, go right ahead and assume whatever the fuck you like. I gave you a reasonable response, you came back with emotional bullshit.
Way to take big leap into assumption land.

I've not seen any. Perhaps they are just ginning it up?
If anything, I want to see MORE pictures and video. There were enough people there with camera phones, someone has to have the execution itself on video...

| 5. Yes, because now the GOP can't lie about it -- and say he slipped away to Syria. |
|
Like they said for years about the WMDs that didn't exist in Iraq in 2003!!!

Many would not believe they were actually dead otherwise. JMHO

what is good for the one is also good for the all. No complaints, I hope, when it happens the other way around!

| 9. I think it's now verging into morbid fascination. |
|
I can't count the number of times just this morning that I saw the footage leading up to his death. I've had enough.
I was convinced it was him the moment I saw the first grainy cellphone pic.
