Topic: Bar Apologizes for Planned Bin Laden Party

[LadyVirginia]

A local Chicago bar apologized, Wednesday for a party they had planned to celebrate the killing of Osama Bin Laden
 
Uncle Fatty's Rum Resort received plenty of flack for their planned celebration, which was set to take place on Friday and was described as "bursting with American pride."
 
According to a Monday news release, The "Osama bin Laden Is Rot'n" bash offered free entry to guests wearing clothing sporting American "swagger," and was to offer specialty cocktails like "The Floating Terrorist" and "Osama Been Shot" -- a blood red shooter made with vodka and grenadine.

Personally, I could go for a Osama Been Shot. 

Celebrating OBL's killing is distasteful to me BUT


 I would lift one in acknowledgement of the triumph of good over evil.

The point. ^

Unfortunately, people are no longer used to thinking in these terms, so the focus falls onto the material aspects of the event instead of the spiritual.
