Hasan faces death penalty
Stars & Stripes’ Jeff Schogol reports that Fort Hood’s CG has determined that Nidal Hasan, the cowardly jihadist, will face the death penalty in his General Court Martial;
It’s official, Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan will face the death penalty in connection with the November 2009 mass shooting at Fort Hood that killed 13 people.
Hasan has been referred to a general court martial, a Fort Hood news release says. Next, a military judge has to be selected to hear the case and determine when Hasan will be arraigned.
Naw, let’s pick the firing squad first – give everyone something to look forward to. Or a hangman in a dark hooded robe who can stand in the corner of the court room holding a noose in one hand. I’m opposed to the death penalty usually, but this is one that will give me a measure of delight. Too bad it’ll take decades to snuff out his goat-lovin’ ass.

Major Z says he is first in line for the hangman job.
I offered to build the handicapped ramp and platform.
Some guys said: “I don’t have a license to kill but I have a learners permit.”
Looks like all we are lacking is a jury of his peers. That would be military or former military sorts, eh?
Think we can get that covered?
We’ve got plenty of abandoned mine shafts that could use filler.
It’s not the trial or the verdict. It’s the years of taxes we’ll be paying to keep him alive in solitary until some POTUS collects enough political will to sign off on his execution; and the years in taxes we’ll be paying to defend the decision of the court martial, the court of appeal, and so on by the folks who love them some lawfare.
When was the last time anyone was executed by the military? And for those of us who don’t know, is there an appeal process for court martial cases?
Claymore: yes, there is an appeals process. I’m talking about jihadists and their enablers conducting lawfare in courts that don’t have any legal say in the matter.
It should be 14 counts of murder. One of the victims was pregnant.
AMEN AW1 Tim!!!!!
I seldom see any mention of that 14th soul that he took.
To answer Claymore’s question;
Army PFC John Bennett was convicted in 1955 of rape and attempted murder of an 11-year-old Austrian girl and executed in 1961 by hanging.
George W Bush authorized the execution of Army PFC Ronald Gray convicted in 1988 of multiple rapes and murders with an execution date of Dec. 2008, but Gray won a stay of execution and he’s still sucking up our oxygen.
Caution: Run-on sentence alert…run-on sentence alert…Reader beware!
So, my question is: Whats the over/under on the number of days it takes MoveOn or CodePinko or MSNBC or Bill Maher or Helen Thomas or Christiane Amanpour or Paul Krugman or Van Jones or Kalhid Rashidi or Bill Ayers or Keith Ellison or Keith Olbermann or Michael Moore or Janene Barfolo or Joan Walsh or Nina Totenberg or Alan Colmes or Eleanor Clift or Mark Shields Shiela Jackson-Lee or Maxine Waters or Henry Waxman or Charlie Rangel or Al Sharpton or Gerry Nadler or Jesse Jackson or Abe Hooper or Barbara Boxer or Cynthia Tucker or Chris Matthews or Eric Holder or the NYT or the LAT or the Atlanta Journal or the Seattle Post or the Sacramento Bee or the Miami Herald or the Chicago Sun Times or the Philly Inquirer or the Denver Post or the San Fran Chronicle or the St. Paul Tribune or the Boston Globe or CNN or the BBC or NBC or CBS or ABC or NPR or the HuffPo or The Nation or Rolling Stone or TIME or Newsweek or The Nation or Maaaaaaaaaaaaaat Daaaaaaaamon to start defending Hasan and demanding that he be given a full-on civilian trial because after all Hasan is just a humble warrior for Islam and all the soldiers were baby-killing Cheneybots who more or less deserved their fate for their role in BushHitler’s Endless War for Oil?
I volunteer. And let’s get the pig ready to bury him in.
AW1Tim;
Jeff Schogol wrote to say that he read your comment and updated the article at S&S to include that one victim was pregnant.
Don’t go giving AW1Tim airs, he’s barely tolerable as it is…
kill the bastard
Non military federal executions tend to go pretty quick. The three contemporary cases were wrapped up in under 10 years each. McVeigh was 6 years from conviction to execution. The other two cases were 8 years from conviction to execution. Sad to consider 8 years as being “expeditious”.
Can we just hit have him screwed, literally, like that one victim in the movie Se7en and let him bleed to death?
If they do use a firing squad, make sure the guns are well oiled with this http://www.silverbulletgunoil.net/
