Hasan in danger of losing beard
Convicted murderer, Nidal Hasan is likely to lose his long-contested facial ornamentation once he arrives at the Disciplinary Barracks at Leavenworth according to the Austin Statesman;
Fort Leavenworth officials said they could not comment specifically on Hasan, but said in a statement that “All inmates are considered soldiers and are treated as such. All inmates at the U.S. Disciplinary Barracks must abide by Army Regulation 670-1 (grooming standards which prohibit beards) unless there is an exception to policy granted.”
Hasan had sought such an exemption last year, but it was denied by Pentagon officials.
Now, I don’t care much about it, other than fact that it seems to mean so much to Hasan, In that regard, I say “Good!”

I can be there to assist in the shaving within hours, just tell me who to contact to get the green light on this…
I’ll second that motion, GOOD!
They should simply remove his head from his shoulders and that will be the end of the issue.
I’ll up the good. Great!
Why did they let him grow it at all?
Strap him to his chair. Then…
Dry shave with dull and rusty razor, followed by a good alcohol splash – repeat.
Just for starters.
Lather the blade with pig guts before shaving.
Nah… don’t shave it. That’s too clean…
Hot Wax without first trimming… Then pull it off slowly.
Then use that mint-smelling crap that they barbers always seem to use once they shave your dome.
Even though I despise this
a$$holeturncoat, we do need to use care. He could use this as a chance to garner sympathy with the public by intentionally squirming around (and thus getting cut up) during the process, then claim brutality.Indeed shave him. Use electric clippers to remove most of the beard, then an electric razor to remove the rest. Or, alternatively, clippers followed by Magic Shave (he should stay relatively clean-shaved somewhat longer in that case, if I recall correctly).
If he is uncooperative, bring in a medic and sedate him. Then shave him while he’s sedated.
Bad treatment might sway an appeals court. I want the rails leading straight to the gurney to be clear, smooth, and well-greased for this . . . individual.
VOV; Would you like to borrow my weed whacker?
If that doesn’t work you can use my other tool know as a weed wacker. I need to proof read before I hit submit.

True. That’s why I like my method. I have a belt sander and plenty of vacation time I could use…
No. The beard should be plucked out one hair at a time and be done in one sitting.
@12
Oh, that’s not bad either.
Weed Whacker gets my vote….
@12
I was going to say that seeing as how I had a seriously unruly eyebrow lash and it made me tear up yanking it out this morning so…..I’m going to go with my second choice….
NAIR. ….EXTRA STRENGTH.

I suggest they use the hand clippers
and can he have SSG Bales as his cell mate?
@12 –
The beard should be plucked out one hair at a time and be done in one sitting… by a bunch of drunk monkeys.
OK Folks, I’ve NAILED it….
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermestidae
Dermestid beetles…” scavengers that feed on dry animal or plant material such as skin or pollen, animal hair, feathers, dead insects and natural fibers.” in addition to ” They are used in taxidermy and by natural history museums to clean animal skeletons. Some dermestid species, commonly called “bow bugs,” infest violin cases, feeding on the bow hair.”
So YAY BEARD GONE!!!
You guys are FAR too nice about this.
This is what you do: I call my friend Diana, who runs a cat grooming shop. She’s used to handling very difficult cases, and has, in fact, advertised that quality about her services for 35+ years. Having worked for her occasionally, I can testify to her ability to handle even a large, squalling, fat, obnoxious, clawed intact male cat who tried to bite her thumb off.
She doesn’t like Hasan, either.
Pay her the standard $62 fee for the combout, clip, and shampoo, which she will finish with wax strips used for waxing the bikini zone. She’ll do that part for free as long as the wax strips are supplied.
I guarantee there will be next to no hair growing on that face of Hasan’s for at least 6 months when she gets done with him.
After that, use a No-No on him, followed by Nair, once a month.
FYI, the combout entails removing unwanted clumps and mats of hair, and it means pulling the hair out of the skin, not clipping it.
followed by Nair, once a month.
And don’t be too quick about washing off the Nair.
ChipNASA: effective, amigo – but not a good choice for the face. That’s why products like Magic Shave exist. (smile)
Seriously, we really don’t want this guy to have any valid beefs. Strap him down, sedate if/as necessary, and then shave him carefully with some type of instrument that will provide the minimum chance for injury.
As viscerally appealing as all of the alternatives above are, we “mistreat” him and we might be helping him sidestep the needle.
I want to live long enough to hear he’s been strapped to a gurney and put down like a rabid dog.

I’m ok with him not getting his goal of becoming a martyr.
Guys,
I think Hondo is right, we’re not a bunch of animials, I know some of you might be thinking about how you’d like to shave and behead him, your not alone, lets just give a good ole USA and send off where he belongs, IN HELL, let the barber down there shave him, we’ve spent enough money on him now as it is.
Sam Naomi (Where The Tall Corn Grows)
Nik: he’s not worth it.
Even crippled, he’s likely to live 20+ years. For an elderly prisoner, I’ve read it costs on the order of $66k per year to incarcerate them. In Hassan’s case, given his medical care requirements I’d guess even that’s low – say $75-100k a year for him. I really don’t want to see US taxpayers spend another $2-5 million on this guy before he croaks from natural causes.
He’s had his day in court. He’s been sentence do death. The sentence is just. It should be carried as soon as it his appeals are done.
Besides, if he wants a chance to meet Allah and explain himself ASAP – who are we to delay him?
Even crippled, he’s likely to live 20+ years.
He’s likely to have that whether he’s been sentenced to death or not. Given his condition, and the lack of urgency it seems the military enacts death sentences, for him a life in prison and a death sentence seems to be the same. The only real difference at this point is he can claim he’s a martyr even though it hasn’t been carried out yet.
Good times at Leavenworth….Brianna (Chelsea) Manning wants to be liberated from the old twig and berries and Nidal (I can’t feel my legs)Hasan wants to grow the beard. How about someone in the chain of command tells them both to shut the fuck up and prepare for execution of sentence!!
Does he have to change his own diapers
Sweeney Todd
Heh! Guess he’ll have to keep his shoes polished, huh?
Just use some womans hair remover on him
I think there’s a simple solution. When it’s chow time, tell him “no shirt, no shave, no service.” The guys at Gitmo were serious enough about their Jihad to conduct a hunger strike long enough to require force feeding. Let’s see how strong his convictions really are. His choice . . .
Yeah, I called this step #1 in a comment yesterday. The beard is coming off. And the rest that I said is true too. He is no longer a defendant. He is a prisoner convicted of murder. He is no longer going to receive the special treatment he engendered before his conviction. His world has suddenly changed for the worse in a big way. As for sympathy, that went out the door when his conviction was entered onto the record. He will wait longer for everything now. He will not be treated with kid gloves. He will cry and no one will hear him. He will, however, get his prayer rug–unless his disability precludes him from using one.
For the beard removal, may I suggest any of these:
1. Oxygen-Acetylene cutting torch
2. Lit road flare
3. Angle grinder w/ sandpaper “Flapper wheel” or steel grinding disc
4. Belt sander
5. Steel wire brush (“Cup” or disc-type wire brush used w/ angle grinder or power drill attachment)
Just my $ .02 worth!!
Why would he get a prayer rug when he is incapable of kneeling to pray?
Cut his beard off and braid it into a leash for a pet pot bellied pig.
Good point brought up here- Hassan is likley to ‘hunger strike’ until he’s allowed to grow a beard back, if/when he’s forced to shave. You can bet this will happen.
If we must shave him, fine. Then let’s do it the Arab way- with two thick strands of wax string, just like they do in the shops. For those of you not familiar with it, just google it.
Makes bikini waxing look tame and painless…
Somebody needs to tell the Austin Statesman that he isn’t “Major” Hasan any more. In addition to the death penalty, he was reduced in rank to Private E-1 and all pay and allowances are forfeit.
How about using a local hospital and making sure his face is nicked during the shaving. He’ll get a staph infection and die, all proper like.
I volunteer my trusty, rusty machete, that I can condition to the sharpness of a butter knife.
Shave his dumb ass.
B Woodman, why mess up a perfectly good machete blade? I have a rusty, nicked-up old hacksaw blade I’ll gladly give you to use for that!!

No article, just a ‘breaking news’ tweet.
Yes. The beard is now history. Hasan was forcibly shaved.

I hope they had an old retired WWII vet with Parkinson’s do it, with a straight razor.
The beard is no more! He was, according to the AP, “forcibly shaved in prison.” There were no details of how he was shaved or with what he was shaved. The game has changed for the murdering terrorist bastard.
Good – and about damn time.
@44, OH, YEAH, seeing that made my day brighter!
Ye-e-e-es… No more special treatment, no more PC stuff.
That was a nice ending to the day for me.
