in the fade: We didn't "win" anything. 

inthefade:

I slept through the news last night. I didn’t find out until I got up at 4:30am. My first emotion about it was something close to closure.

Then I read the news and I saw the pictures of celebrations and I read through jbowes’ tumblr and what I saw mostly horrified me.

This isn’t an NBA…

I was so conflicted about how I felt about the killing of Osama when the news broke last night. This adequately explains how I feel.
