What's Your Take on Osama Bin Laden's Elimination? Sound Off.

Patch was on the street Monday afternoon to gauge the temperature of Montrose locals in the wake of Osama Bin Laden's elimination last night (read Patch coverage ). 

More than anything, tempers flared when that name was brought up, but Bin Laden himself wasn't necessarily the target of the anger.

One local who prefers to remain anonymous railed against Americans, saying "someone is going to get hurt" as a consequence of American celebrations over the terrorist's death. "If I had a son overseas, I'd be shaking in my boots," said the local, who went on to say that reporters and soldiers in the Middle East are going to get the brunt of possible consequent anti-American action.

On the other side of the spectrum is Anita Arnell, who commented on Patch: "The evil sob is burning in hell! [...] God bless President Obama! He has done a great thing killing this devil! All Americans have our self respect back! I love you Obama!"

At , one woman, who also prefers to remain anonymous, said: "I'm not that happy watching Americans celebrate [Osama's death]. It doesn't seem appropriate." This local went on to say there is no difference between Palestinians parading American bodies and Americans celebrating Osama's death, regardless of his crimes.

K. Damiano had yet another take on the incident. Echoing widely discredited conspiracy theories, he wrote on Patch: "There is still no evidence bin Laden was behind [9/11 ...] the government still has a lot to answer for. [...] How among all the shredded paper & destroyed buildings they managed to find a whole intact passport of one of the highjackers. Be careful in accepting what the media tells us. There's always more to the story."

A student from Glendale, who also prefers to remain anonymous, said: "I'm not excited. I feel that inevitably something will happen in relatiation. I'm more afraid when I go to the airport. I would not feel comfortable traveling for at least the next 3 months."

How do you feel about Osama's death? Are you, like the Glendale student, afraid to travel once again? Do you have a sense of closure?Are Americans justified in celebration over someone's death, even if it is a terrorist? Weigh in with a comment.
