Eh. callandor1000 Send a noteboard - 06/05/2011 02:24:41 PM
Under the Freedom of Information Act citizens have a right to any government document not covered by security exceptions. We have been informed that the raid took place and bin Laden was killed, so there is no secrecy threatened by releasing the picture. Using a vague "national security" excuse in this instance is just a bad, bad precedent to not disclosing anything the government doesn't want to disclose on theoretical grounds of "national security".


Dude, there is a security secrecy that would come to light. No one is supposed to know that Charlie Sheen is actually the guy that fired the shot that killed Osama. Personally, I have no desire to see Charlie Sheen holding a gun in one hand, a whiskey in the other with his foot on Osama's chest and a cigar in Charlie's mouth.

Your mom. That's right. The cat is out of the bag. Your mom.

They'll probably leak out and be all over the internet regardless of what he does ßelals Girl - 04/05/2011 07:56:22 PM 1022 Views
I have to admit that I thought of it that way. nossy - 04/05/2011 10:01:58 PM 827 Views

Sorry, I'm such a jerkface for doing that *NM* nossy - 04/05/2011 10:06:15 PM 844 Views
You're very unoriginal. *NM* snoopcester - 04/05/2011 10:07:27 PM 537 Views
Yes you are *NM* snoopcester - 04/05/2011 10:08:11 PM 542 Views
I vote yes. We should have release the pictures. Tom - 04/05/2011 09:38:37 PM 1040 Views
Is it about us? nossy - 04/05/2011 09:48:41 PM 968 Views
If the photo exists, it should be released. Period. Tom - 04/05/2011 10:31:09 PM 1098 Views
I'm not sure that tells me why. nossy - 04/05/2011 10:41:15 PM 982 Views

That isn't the statement I saw from Obama, snoopcester - 04/05/2011 10:55:57 PM 928 Views
He always gives a bullshit reason for what he does. *NM* Tom - 05/05/2011 03:17:28 AM 456 Views
So, you think "you're too delicate" is a less-bullshit reason? nossy - 05/05/2011 03:22:16 AM 1060 Views
No. It's even more bullshit. There is no good reason to keep the photos confidential. *NM* Tom - 05/05/2011 03:51:08 PM 491 Views
Heh. Ok. So says you, so it must be. *NM* nossy - 05/05/2011 05:12:33 PM 529 Views
I seem to remember you asking for my opinion. I gave it. *NM* Tom - 05/05/2011 06:10:33 PM 507 Views
Yes. And I appreciate that part of it. nossy - 05/05/2011 07:14:21 PM 953 Views
Is there a good reason to make them public? *NM* callandor1000 - 06/05/2011 02:19:42 PM 502 Views
Is it that you think there is no risk of increased attacks against Western soldiers/ innocent snoopcester - 05/05/2011 09:54:42 AM 938 Views
Due to showing the picture? No. Due to killing bin Laden? Yes. *NM* Tom - 05/05/2011 02:20:55 PM 495 Views
There are good reason NOT to disclose them. Variant - 04/05/2011 11:25:45 PM 935 Views
Absurd. Tom - 05/05/2011 03:18:34 AM 973 Views
~shrugs~ Variant - 05/05/2011 09:47:16 AM 1023 Views
That is exactly how I feel. I have found it disturbing how many people want to see those pictures. Tashmere - 05/05/2011 04:05:22 AM 1039 Views
If it exists, you should be able to consume it? Jacob - 05/05/2011 05:59:51 PM 1033 Views
It is a government document and we know of its existence, so YES, as a citizen I have a right to it. Tom - 05/05/2011 06:21:00 PM 898 Views

I don't think releasing it is a very big deal, but I support his decision Isaac - 04/05/2011 11:21:04 PM 926 Views
I see no point in doing so. *NM* everynametaken - 05/05/2011 05:31:32 AM 513 Views
For a complete sense of closure, to say it's done and move on without looking back, I say yea. Vodalus - 05/05/2011 05:33:31 AM 977 Views
Will he release the death certificate instead? *NM* Tim - 05/05/2011 03:04:04 PM 549 Views
