And why his death doesn't really matter:

For those who haven't heard, apparently OBL has been caught and killed in Pakistan (which depending on your perspective, may or may not be true, accurate, or even real). Naturally, the morons of Facebook and Twitter rejoice in his death, typing the same stupidity over and over again:

army wives: "This is fantastic news! Support the military! <3. I haven't seen my hubby for 2 years but I'm sure he isn't doing things like raping women and killing children indiscriminately. Keep them in your prayers because a well-outfitted soldier is going to need your thoughts, not some poor, little boy mistaken for as a terrorist in his own homeland."

tough guys rejected from the army: "FUCK YEAH! WE KILLED THAT SUMUVABITCH! I'm overcompensating on the internet to try and fit into the generic, "real" man stereotype that society perpetuates through movies and RL."

civilians: "About time we got him. Now we can go on with our daily lives being unaffected like we have been for the past 10 years. I actually don't care about politics but when some huge story like this hits the front pages of every MSM source in the US, then I just have to say something or I'll be considered unpatriotic."

Also, since this is a Peace Studies class, here is a video of Bin Laden's son calling for peace http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GY4wGpPbz0E
