How did bin Laden’s death go down?

An infographic showing the near universal levels of support that Americans of all political persuasions greeted the death of Osama bin Laden with. No problem with that at all.

Maybe the worrying statistic here is that 54% of Americans think that killing bin Laden makes them safer. Of course it doesn’t. At least not in the short-term. Although in the long haul as intelligence gleaned from the bin Laden haul pays off it might, but that has to be coupled with progress in Afghanistan.


Gene adds:

“Justice was done. And I think that anyone who would question that the perpetrator of mass murder on American soil didn’t deserve what he got needs to have their head examined.”
