It just irks me when "killing the unsub" is the solution. That doesn't mean it's not understandable, it often is, but something inside me *turns* and make me feel uneasy anyway.
I think it's supposed to make you uneasy. I firmly believe that one of the basic, and most important, principles of CM is that Killing A Person Is A Bad Thing - even when it's necessary, even when "You did what you had to do." as we hear so often on the show.
I firmly believe this principle. I don't want to open a political discussion, but this is the reason my stomach turned over at the sight of people cheering and celebrating at the news of bin Laden's death. I believe it was a necessary thing, but no human being's death should be a cause for celebration.
