Well, what do you think?
okay, no one commented yet, so I will. We might make the mistake of thinking that because Osama Bin Laden has done great evil, he is disqualified from the kindness of God. However, to think in this way it to think like a Muslim, and that would be error.
Jesus came to die as a ransom for the sinners, the godly for the ungodly. We must be careful not to assume that we ourselves are in some way deserving of the kindness of God, but Osama is not. Osama is not deserving. But then again, neither are you and I.
So, then, God's kindness is torwards this man, Osama. However, Osama, as far as we know, has rejected the goodness of God and refused to place his faith in the Son. If he will turn from his sins and run to Jesus, he will find he is a welcome as Billy Graham in the presence of God.

The real question I have is about the intent of the person who hung the sign.
Of course Jesus loves us all, even the worst of us.
But what message was the sign author trying to send?
Wizard: "The real question I have is about the intent of the person who hung the sign."
Excellent observation. It is simple but at the heart of all communication. What did the author intend to say?
I apply that to reading the Bible, and the US Constitution, and menus at restaurants. The words mean what the author's intended. this is basic, human communication.
With that said, I wonder what the person who hung this sign was trying to say? I don't know.
