After ten years of searching, Osama Bin Laden is now dead. Many say “justice has been done,” but I saw this quote by Martin Luther King Jr. tonight and thought it really rang true with my feelings on this issue.
”I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”
