As a gruesome trophy.

I like Barack Obama’s decision to not show Osama bin Laden’s corpse. In photographs. Bloodied. And with his head half blown off. Some people, for the sake of proving that it’s bin Ladin, want such a public posting. I’m surprised that they don’t want to put the head on a stake. Or mounted on a wall. As a gruesome trophy. Maybe they do. Like a moose head displayed by the great white hunter. –Jim Broede
