Don't read this, I mean it! If you don't have powerful views I wouldn't

It's a bit controversial but, as a business professional going back to school for the second time for a Masters, shameless I know, I am curious in my psychological studies to find out what people really think about others. Question? what would you do if you saw Osama Bin Laddin walking down the street and you had a chance to do something without getting caught? Don't hold back, this is for research. One source says "If it were me, I would air his death live on the internet while cutting through his neck with one of my dull chef knives."

To be quite honest, Im not a monster or anything, but I'd "get rid of him". Thats what bugs me most about situations like this. Even watching the new batman movie drove me crazy! Instead of eliminating the problem, they feel the need to keep them alive cause its the right thing to do. Yah usually it is, but if you have a mass murderer on your hands, and you keep him alive in custody, then he gets away, and more people die, what do you do then? When you could have easily fixed the problem earlier. For any of you who havent seen the new batman movie with heath ledger, you probably wont see my point, but for any who do, you might understand what i mean. They keep catching him, and keeping him in custody, and he keeps escaping. Bad things keep happening.

I completely agree with your points. To put it simply, if we actually moved more of our troops over to where he actually was, this would have ended a long time ago.

I will respond since it is for psychological research...I am a social science major:) To be perfectly honest with you, I would do nothing. For one, I'm not even sure I would recognize him. If I thought it was him, I would second guess myself and convince myself it was just a look a like. Furthermore, if I knew beyond a shadow of doubt it was him, I would still do nothing. I am a very meek and timid person, I would be too afraid to do anything at all. Maybe I could get up the nerve to point him out to another person I would be sure would have the courage to put an end to this tyrant's life.

Very well said. I think alot of people would respond the same way as you did. However, there are some select few that have some deep satinistic urges that would take this opportunity and run with it.
