This is not good news, someone died. Whether this person is a criminal, murderer, or whatever, he's still a human being. It's unethical and immoral to celebrate the death of someone.

Did that perpetrator give one thought about the life of that poor young lady when he took her hostage? I don't think so, neither should I give too much sympathy to that idiot. Yes, a human life is gone, but it's a piece of garbage that I will not be shedding any tears for. He should have thought about the consequences before enacting on it, oh well...c'est la vie.

Taiwanese artist Chen Chun-Hao simulates a traditional Chinese ink painting "Wind in Pines Among a Myriad Valleys" with mosquito nails according to the painting on his laptop at his workshop in Taipei, southeast China's Taiwan, June 16, 2012. Chen Chun-Hao is a Taiwanese artist who replaces paintbrush with nail guns in copying the traditional Chinese ink paintings. He uses a nail gun to shoot thousands of small mosquito nails, or headless nails, into a canvas-covered wood board to reproduce traditional Chinese ink masterpieces. Looking from a certain distance, these nails on the wood board together form fine lines and delicate shadows under the light. But looking closer, the nails' sharp metallic nature come forth. For the young artist, this kind of imitating is not a way of simple copy but recreation. He tried to look for the possibility for creation within the physical limitation of certain materials.
