It didn't occur to me that the comparison between OBL and LA might not
be obvious to some of the slower RBR readers.

- OBL was pursued for almost 10 years before being caught.
- Lafferty's been after LANCE longer than that.

- The men pursuing OBL did so at great personal sacrifice.
- Lafferty has sacrificed his job and his sanity to the pursuit of LA.

- OBL perpetrated the largest terrorist attack in US history.
- LA perpetrated the greatest fraud in sporting history.

- OBL .. nah, I think I'll save some for later.

If you need more, just give me another STFU and I'll be happy to oblige.

Dumbass,

OBL has multiple wives.
LA has multiple girlfriends who look like his mom.

OBL ran a global financial network disbursing money for
dubious purposes.
LA runs a charity of questionable operating standards
and finances.

OBL put it about that he was skulking from cave to cave
in a donkey, while really he was living in a walled compound
in a suburb of Islamabad and playing Wii: Rock Band.
LA wrote a memoir about his hardscrabble childhood but
lives in a posh compound in a suburb of Austin and
dates minor rock stars and near-celebrities.

OBL started a dubious fashion trend for combining traditional
tunics with off-brand Army camo fatigues.
LA ... yellow wristbands ... say no more.
Clearly the greater fashion criminal.

Finally, were I not outside the US at an undisclosed location today,
I would surely be in my backyard shooting my AK-47 in the air
to celebrate this news. And I hope that on a momentous Tuesday
in July when LA is brought to heel, that I will have the opportunity.

As far as I can tell you don't need a reason to be pissed off.

The joke's on you, because BHO just eliminated OBL,
his sole rival for the title of Sheikh and Supreme Caliph
of All the Islamosocialistfascists.

It's all a Mafia family war when you get down to it,
and BHO showed he is the bigger gangster. Suck on
that fact, Aryan-boy.

What didn't occur to your dumb ass is that some topics are of such
grave seriousness that they should not be the subject of humor. And
no, I'm not talking about LA.

The difference between tragedy and a good joke is usually time. OBL
dying isn't exactly the Holocaust, and it's already been a decade
since he did most of his 'work', so there is some distance.

You chose the word relevant - question is, how relevant and to whom.
If OBL were still largely relevant there would have been a much bigger
outcry, sworn vengeance videos and stuff like that. Muslim and Arab
countries have been strangely quiet about it. He was unfinished
business for the US, and it was a point of pride to take him out. It
doesn't mean that everything is finished or there won't be other stuff
to deal with. There will.

As far as the sensitivity thing - did you know anyone or lose anyone
in 9/11?

Right, said Fred (or Scott). We're all God's children,
and I gather Osama had an especially close relationship
to at least one God. Joking about the death of a human
being isn't funny.

On the other hand, terrorism, now that's funny. Here's a
Chinese joke about it, from
http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/evanosnos/2011/05/osama-china-america.html

Al Qaeda once sent five terrorists to China: One was sent
to blow up a bus, but he wasn’t able to squeeze onto it;
one was sent to blow up a supermarket, but the bomb was
stolen from his basket; one was sent to blow up a train, but
tickets were sold-out; finally, one succeeded in bombing a
coal mine, and hundreds of workers died. He returned to
Al Qaeda’s headquarters to await the headlines about his
success, but it was never reported by the Chinese press.
Al Qaeda executed him for lying.

I have an small book of political jokes like this collected in the
Soviet Union and printed in the West. They're fucking hilarious
(if you remember the USSR), even or especially to a bleeding
heart liberal Commie like myself. Black humor is a time-honored
way of dealing with intolerable situations.

Fredcomrade Ben

p.s. The joke about the Chinese joke is that one of the
five terrorists is unaccounted for. He's probably a sleeper
agent waiting to run for President.

Not important. Hmm...you get to decide what is and what is not
relevant - without consideration for my views on the matter. I'm not
sure I agree with that. Let me check...nope, I sure don't. Sorry.

Your sensibilities regarding the offing of a person who assaulted you
in a tangential, theoretical way shows that you are a caring guy - in
a tangential, theoretical way. It's not quite so simple for me. I
knew six people that died in the WTC on 9/11. Captain of my HS
lacrosse team, kid I used to play ping pong with at the pool, people
I'd run into in town (I live one town over from where I grew up - it's
a nice area), that sort of thing. Something like 40 people in all
from my home town. So you might well imagine that that shit's still
alive for me. Which makes people's remorse...regret...what is it
exactly that you are feeling that makes you qualified to tell me how
things are supposed to work?

I'm no more offended by this thread than any of a number of things
that passes for normal on RBR. I'm not sorry OBL got whacked any
more than I'm sorry when a gangster gets whacked. They were begging
for it, and as the saying goes in Texas, they needed killing. I'm not
reveling in him getting whacked, just feel it's time to turn the
page. The thing I most object to in this thread is that Substance
Abuse has a lame sense of humor and he's simply trolling.

I'd apologize for my stupid and/or naive thoughts on the matter, but
I'm not sure that would be relevant. :)~

Sorry, let me explain. I didn't mean to discount your views. I was
speaking solely for me. I don't know a soul who was killed on 9/11.
It is not important to me (not saying it's not important to you or
others) to have known anyone killed on 9/11 to feel that the topic of
killing OBL is inappropriate humor. I am absolutely glad he's dead,
but I'm not celebrating. There's still too much heavy lifting to do.

I'm a veteran myself and I've worked with/for veterans for the last
decade and I work w/ wounded warriors every damn day. Just about a
month ago, for example, I met a guy in his mid-20s who had served in
the very same infantry company I'd served in over 30 years ago. I'm
doing okay, but he's not doing so well. His story is far too common,
and it breaks my heart. So, yeah, I don't find the humor in any of
this. YMMV.

Sunday night I turned to my girlfriend and asked her "Is there any
difference between Americans dancing in the streets tonight and those
celebrations in the middle east almost 10 years ago?"

No - the dynamic is the same.

Monday AM a colleague came seeking approval for the Osama death - I
told him I was initially pleased that Osama was dead but embarrassed
by the American celebrations - we're better than that.

"One down" is correct but this is a hydra. Fed by American policy and
American greed.

We will continue to see this for some time.
