From what I understand they where very skilled in a gun fight Bonnie could even handle a sawn down Browning Automatic Rifle not shabby for a very small woman.Also Clyde took his weapons very seriously and knew how to use them for example the BAR he liked that weapon because its rounds could easily penetrate car doors and the like most of his peers used the Thompson which lacked such fire power.They escaped being completely surrounded on more than one occasion.The same applies for Dillinger though I understand he was shot in the back of the head.Like you said some people have to just be put down.Not to mention that they killed several police officers in cold blood the Barrows at least.So I agree with you some people are just to dangerous to take alive.

Bin Laden got what he got it was fair I'll say that for sure like how the Israelis hunted down the guys involved in Munich 72 sometimes you just have to serve you nations justice hard Bin Laden was too much a risk to take alive I am glad that Bin Laden got double tapped to be honest.Honestly some people just dont deserve quarter.I say ask the SEAL that tapped him if he thinks it was legal I'll go with his answer.

@Wolf he was the mater mind and commander in chief of the ones that did attack us in a war which AQ clearly has long sense declared against all of us(unless you agree with AQs agenda)by that fact he is a legitimate target er I should say was.Hate to say but if you think by not agreeing that AQ is the enemy that you are not a possible target of AQ then you are sadly mistaken but whatever man yeah you missed something big time hope that you find it..... the truth that is.
