Any avoidable loss of life would have been 100% unacceptable just to catch him alive. I can't believe you'd even suggest such a ridiculous notion. All belief was that these guys were nobodies. They didn't even make an effort to catch Bin Laden alive and you think they would have let more people get killed to catch some 19 year old scrub terrorist? You're out of your freakin' mind to believe such nonsense.
