2009 Shooting rampage at Fort Hood/Hasan Execution

[OldSolduer]

The procedure for MAID I witnessed was humane.
It’s three injections. The third one will make sure it’s done.
I don’t understand why they continually fuck it up.

Oh this is going to be fun. Hegseth’s gonna take this real well.

But his is the bestest type of Christianity. Vance may have conflicts.

can’t quite remember the case from law school, but I distinctly remember the lesson. The purpose of hanging a horse thief in the town square isn’t to serve as punishment, it’s to publicly deter the theft of horses. Until somebody decided that type of theft can be both an insured loss and an offence punishable by incarceration, and thus not much need for fatal deterrence.
As you and I both know, there’s no replacement for losing our offspring. For crimes like this there must be meaningful and effective deterrence in the public square. I’m undecided if this particular instance will serve any effective purpose at all given the passage of time and the rotten people who have gleefully taken this decision. It might be different I suppose if the police on scene had promptly finished the job right there and then or if the flash to band speed of justice moved much more swiftly. I suppose that’s the lesson. He deserves death, a slow one in a rotten prison cell after all these years is the better option right now.

He has expressed no remorse and said he wished he had been killed in the attack so he could become a martyr.

So , why help a murderer become a martyr?

Again, this will give those who wish to harm America more excuse to do so. It will make Americans less safe.

I suspect he is going to be very disappointed if no cameras are there.

Surely you are not advocating for law enforcement to be judge, jury and executioner.

The murder rate of capital vs non-capital punishment US states suggests that it's not much of a deterrent. Maybe if they killed more and faster it might be.

What's the average time on death row? Twenty years?

Giuseppe Zangara , the man who tried to kill FDR, spent only 10 days on death row.

Regarding cameras,

• The Outrage over Cameras: Right before his execution in Florida’s electric chair , Zangara became furious when he realized that no newsreel cameras or photographers were present to document his death.
• His Final Outburst: He looked at the witnesses and mocked them, shouting, "No movie? Where are the cameras to take my picture? Bunch of crooks!"
• Last Words: He then willfully walked over to the electric chair and told the executioner his famous last words: "Push the button! Go on and push the button!"

I’m confident he’s not advocating that. I took his post to simply mean if the shooter had not been fortunate enough to survive the four rounds responding police put into him.
