Torture accomplishes fucking nothing. Kill him and be done with it.

I cannot support this approach.
Oh christ, send your moral high horse to the glue factory. Killing Osama Bin Laden was fully justified. Killing concentration camp guards was fully justified.
Should we have invaded Iraq? No. Did all of the civilians we maimed and killed deserve it? Hell no. Am I going to shed a tear for Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden, or any of those other evil fucks? Not a one. There's some people where their death makes the world a better place. It was their choices that lead to that being the condition of their lives.
As I said, I haven't met a single pissant riding that high horse that I considered even the slightest bit ethical. Most of them have the moral fiber of bacon grease.
And I didn't dispute that, did I? But you're calling my attitude "the moral high horse" in a sneering manner, despite the fact I said you were just as entitled to your feelings.
I feel at this point the conversation is going nowhere, and it's just gonna run around in circles. So I'm cutting it off here. It's off-topic anyway.
I am okay with celebrating the death of people who want me dead for no other reason than what I am. If Mike "hang the faggots lol" Pence bites the dust, especially as a direct result of his own horrible choices which are bad for everyone within breathing distance of him, I am going to want a nice bottle of bubbly stuff.

That article doesn't seem to state that Pence tested positive. His press secretary did. Mind you, it's still an example of ludicrous stupidity, self-absorption, and irresponsibility (not exactly uncommon with this administration) and it wouldn't be at all surprising if he came down with it too as he has been in contact with her, but still, the title of this thread is misleading.
