None of us have the right.
And as for people enjoying watching him die, over and over...why?
As to watching him die, did you watch? Skweeky did.
As for watching him die (I have not, by the way), I don't know that enjoyment would be the word I'd choose.Quote:

Satisfaction, certainly.
It wouldn't be anything I'd feel compelled to watch repeatedly, either.
People here and in a whole lot of other places in the world ARE judging him, saying he deserved all that he got, and deriving satisfaction from watching him die, yet can anyone who have posted here say that they knew him, or exactly who he was? Or that they, personally, were hurt by him?Quote:

The people he hurt, tho', have the right to enjoy it if they have to to be able to close the book on him.
I'll neither miss him, nor feel happy about it. Especially so as the full extent of what he did, and who helped him do it, might never be uncovered, now. Which in my thinking is doing his victims a disfavour. Besides, for some, death is the easy way out.
He's dead, and that's that.
I didn't. And as for her, I suppose she felt she needed to see it for whatever reason.Quote:

He's dead, why bother looking at him die? I thought watching executions of famous villains and whatnot was something that belonged in the dark ages.
Seems akin to looking at a traffic accident, or somesuch.
It is sure enough that they hanged him, without me confirming it, and I'm certainly not going to derive any pleasure from watching it.

i think its a shame he is dead. i think they should have used him to help rebuild Iraq.
he might not do it at first but 220/240 volts might make him a bit more keen to help the US forces and the UN
hey, if they are going to kill him anyway they then why not and it might even give him a bit of insight into what he did to others.
but his dead so anyway....
:@ Government :angry:
Almost forgot what the internet was good for.
