Death of Osama Bin Laden!

i don't think id wanna see them.....if they show.They need to edit or blury it a little

They are saying that the photo of him dead is "gruesome" and "it could be inflammatory" if released.

Bin Ladin's 13 year old daughter saw her father get shot. It looks like his wife got in front of him and she got shot in the leg. One of his son's was also shot. There were other children there who were got tied up.

This was quite serious.... as I hear more details coming out.

i feel bad for the kid watching her dad get shot.That's not a pretty picture.

Wow Carol That does sound serious

Someone posted a pic of him dead on facebook. It looked pretty real. I had to look away fast! It was the most disturbing thing I have ever seen. No one should see it.

I've seen that, Beckie. It's supposed to be a fake.

I don't see any reason for releasing the actual photos. It won't change the minds of the people who think he's alive. They'll just claim that the pictures are doctored.

I've seen that fake one too.

*shivers*

It was just a matter of time...

President Obama has decided NOT to release the photos.

Since Obama has seen them, that's good enough for me.

I actually think that is wise. Here is the article. I must say I am quite pleased with our Michigan representative, for being (what I think) is a voice of reason here:

I agree,Think it's better not to show them.

So do I. I don't believe that any good would come of it. Those who don't believe that Osama is dead would only say that the pictures were doctored/photoshopped. And I think that publicizing photos of a dead person, no matter who it is, is beneath us, and would only serve to incite more violence and endanger more people.

Well said.

To the people who doubt that bin Laden is really dead... really, why would we say he was if he wasn't? Think how embarrassing it would be for the U.S. government to make that announcement, only to have a video of him show up a few days later, cheerfully posing with a "Bin Laden Dead!" newspaper headline.

So true!

I reckon myself they should have been show, but that's just my often controversial opinion on politics.




And that picture is so funny Rob!

They are right in not showing it. It's safer that way for our country. I would not want to see such a disturbing picture. I thought that one I saw yesterday was real and that was bad enough to look at.

I Don't really care either way but i do think it is Strange that they showed the Hanging Saddam Hussein but not this But i do think it is a Good idea not showing the Pictures
