    All this talk about chasing him down and opportunities lost got me to thinking, would we as individual citizens have the cajones to personally kill a man?

    If you had him in your sights, would you PERSONALLY pull the trigger?

    Knowing all the terrorist things he has done and is responsible for around the world

    Yes or no?

    I would absolutely put a bullet hole through him the size of the Lincoln tunnel and sleep comfortably at night.

    Well I'd try and take him in alive.

    How hard could it be to subdue a 60-something year old dude hooked up to a dialysis machine?

    He is not hooked up to the Dialysis machine, apparently those rumors are false.

    One link of many refuting it

    DD - loser of a sig bet.

    I would prefer to personally kill nobody. I do want OBL to be held responsible for all that he has done.

    No. The United States of America stands for justice and fairness, no matter how low our enemies stoop. We show the world that *we're* the civilized ones -- that we rise above simple vendetta.

    Capture him, put his sorry ass on trial, and throw him in prison for the rest of his life. Show the world that democracy really does work and that we stand for the *very* best of humanity. It's not always easy or convenient, but dammit, we're better than a piece of garbage like Osama bin Laden.

    I am not sure we can capture him, I would prefer to save the taxpayers the money and simply kill him, and any of his leadership, they declared war on us, those are the consequences.

    And I respect your opinion on that too. I would prefer to kill him, but would be satisfied with your scenario too.

    NO. I'd torture him first, then kill him as long as it was a slow, painful death.

    If I had to, yeah I could do it. I'd rather bring him in alive though. I smile when I think about the great leader of all these scumbags being locked up in a prison instead of becoming a martyr.

    If there was an opportunity to kill him, I would do it....only to prevent futher damage. Although at this point, i don't think he is plotting anything, I think he's just trying to stay alive.

    In a way, he's already in prison.

    i have him permanently stuck to one of those dunking machines where you throw a ball to hit the target and he drops in water.

    put him on the strip in vegas and have the money go to charity.

    i think it was 20 million.

    so if i found this sucker and won the $$$$.

    I would do the following to help the world:

    help build mosques in war torn countries: to show that the USA cares
    give money to africa: to show that the USA cares
    give money to scholarships to my university: to show that the USA cares

    buy a big mf house with escalades with giant rims, go to vegas, get a bunch of gold diggers on my tip: to show that i'm still an american!

    oh i forgot: start a program in the middle east to introduce them to the delicious food called pork
