Sorry, Little Brain

This past weekend I listened to a homily that briefly touched upon the recent death of bin Laden. The priest stated he believed the United States acted in self defense. That it was a just death. "For we did not know what this man would do next."

Really?

I didn't beg to differ. I didn't raise my hand and ask to speak. But I did hear that little voice scream out in my little brain:

Two things:
Evil begets evil and
An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind. Gandhi

I don't understand violence. I can't condone it.
Really, there has to be a better way.
