Post-Mortem pictures of Osama

The decision President Obama made in choosing whether or not to posting of the post-Mortem pictures of Osama could be considered a very smart idea. He believes that any posting of the pictures could cause serious national security risk.
"It is important for us to make sure that very graphic photos of somebody who was shot in the head are not floating around as an incitement to additional violence, as a propaganda tool. That's not who we are," Mr Obama said.

In my opinion i  feel as though i agree with the terms Obama came to. It will cause some serious conflict within the nation. Don't get me wrong though, i completely feel compassion for those who wish to see the pictures because they have such a deep personal hatred towards him for the terrible things he caused. Justice was served for the death of all the people he was the reason are dead now. For some reason though, i wouldn't want to have the pictures posted either,not only for the reasons Obama stated but because imagine if someone ou knew was killed, or past away, would you want their pictures all over the place? I know i hate seeing my dads death and pictures of the car accident all over the place. If these pictures get out people will do stupid things like post them everywhere as if it is sometime of worship that the terrible man is killed.
