69. I don't feel either elation or depression. It reminds me of how I felt
when Timothy McVeigh was excuted. It's not that he didn't deserve death - there's no doubt that he intentionally murdered countless innocent non-combatants, including personally murdering two sons-in-law. Importantly, these weren't unintended incidental deaths from combat - they were the precise targets he meant to exterminate. While I have no qualms about his execution, there still is a sadness and I make no gloat or take no glee that he received appropriate justice.
