This is good news.

Anything less would be unacceptable.

How many saw him do it? Why waste the taxpayers' money on a trial? As they do in Iraq, off with his head!

• Other states are trying to abolish the death penalty. My state's putting in the express lane.

How about death by single shots to the extremeties over several days?

 

[signut49]

Yeah! With a .22 revolver.

they should get samuel l. jackson to play his part from pulp fiction during the execution. the words to Ezekiel 25:17 actually fit his crime quite well.

I think it should be a Five-7. Charge 50 dollars to anyone who wants to take a nonfatal shot.

BTW Courts Martial don't cost any thing, whereas all members are already paid 24/7.

Except the part where Ezekiel 25:17 is transplanted into a completely new context and broken apart for Quentin Tarantino's amusement.

Sorry, pet peeve of mine. I've been in far too many religious debates where people want to say something about the Bible but quote Pulp Fiction instead.

Actually, in the film the character of Jules Winfield admits he doesn't understand the quote he uses. He explains it was just "some cold blooded **** to say to a motherf*****r before I pop a cap in their ***."

I was thinking along the same lines. Put him to rest with the same weapon he used, the FNH Five-seveN which many people think is an ineffective pistol. Don't tell that to the families of those murdered by this butcher Hasan!

My point was that he wasn't quoting at all. He could charitably be described as paraphrasing, but I think the technical term is "making **** up". He doesn't understand the quote because it's not a quote, and people all over the intarwebz are too damned lazy to crack open the source material and check it for accuracy before claiming they can quote the Bible.

Returning to the subject of the OP, this is one of the very few cases where I can agree with the death penalty. There is no doubt who did the shooting. The facts of the case are not at issue, and there's not even the slightest chance we've got the wrong guy. So, much as everyone here might think I'm a bleeding heart because I generally oppose such things, I'm good to go on this one.

They need to put him in a small cell and throw 6 hand grenades in it.

Wouldn't we need to refer to the UCMJ first? not advocating for torturing the guy, I'm just wondering what the eminent laws are.

Some people probably will say that. I think that the U.S. Constitution should and does trump the UCMJ. How can the constitution be defended from enemies, foreign and domestic, when the defenders themselves carve out exemptions for when to ignore it?

The dude should get a trial. No torture, no bull**** about enemy combatants, no hitman squad. Let justice be done as the constitution demands.

I'm just going to leave this here...
