    So answer my question : by your logic, do you think that only unimportant news should be stickied?

    Your comments are unnecessary. But still, there they are....

    It's unnecessary to complain about sticking this thread.

    I am really glad that the b*stard had to spend the latter part of his life hiding in holes in the mountains. I have always read that he took a major backseat in AQ operations at some point soon after 9/11. But he did deserve to die and I hope he felt a good bit of physical pain. I really hope we continue to try to pick these top guys off with drones and such. Just because OBL is gone, we cannot stop attacking.

    I already implied that no type of news thread should be stickied.

    Wonder what the world's reaction is. It should be morning time in European countries.

    It's lunch time in the Far East.

    You have to remember the feeling of when the Twin Towers went down on 9/11. Literally the whole country stopped, all industries in all aspects of life.

    A bit of "closure" to it of news of the main culprit being taken care of, that DESERVES its own leading headline.

    I think even the Michael Jackson death was stickied, not even near the importance of this.

    Dude....go b**** about something in another thread.

    All of you politicizing this can eat a dick, too.

    As to the topic at hand, I'm curious as to the reaction of the rest of the world, and Pakistan in particular. It ain't over yet, but I'm glad this terrorist ******* is dead and we're the ones who got him.

    Everyone just stop replying to him, he just wants attention. He probably found some grammar mistakes in the presidents speech he wants to point out. Now back to what we are really here for:
