You've got to be kidding right? You're embarrassed for them because citizens displayed some sort of emotion after years of pent up sorrow and frustration from the WTC attack were finally let out with Osama being killed.
The country has been pursuing this terrorist for a decade and the people who were celebrating were for the most part over 20 and had lived through the attacks on the world trade center first hand. The ones who were at ground zero likely all lost friends and family there.
Don't sit there on your high horse and pretend that they don't know why they are cheering. Anyone who was older then 10 years old at that time will have that event ingrained in their minds forever.
What would be a proper display in your mind, sipping tea and turning on a rerun of little mosque on the prairie?
