If your bored its a good read but yeah its long.

 

"Nine years, seven months, and twenty days after September 11th, an American was a trigger pull from ending bin Laden’s life. The first round, a 5.56-mm. bullet, struck bin Laden in the chest. As he fell backward, the SEAL fired a second round into his head, just above his left eye. On his radio, he reported, “For God and country—Geronimo, Geronimo, Geronimo.” After a pause, he added, “Geronimo E.K.I.A.”—“enemy killed in action.”

TLDR but mainly I just don't wish to give BL one more second of thought. Glad he's dead, regardless of how it happened. There's zero that could ever be revealed that would change the satisfaction I have knowing he's not breathing any more.
