Whether we like it or not, we have to make judgments about whether another person has committed a crime and how serious that crime is. My judgment is that Bin Laden was especially evil, wishing to bring death to people simply because they did not share his beliefs - men, women, and children, civilian or military - and he did bring death to many. I did not dance in the street but I can understand why people would do so. An especially evil person has been brought to justice and I'm quite happy about it. It is incumbent on society to purge itself of evil, especially the type of evil espoused by Bin Laden.
