Beltway sniper fights execution as region remembers terror [Tuesday is THE DAY]
The Washington Examiner ^ | November 8 2009 | Bill Myers

Convicted Beltway sniper John Allen Muhammad is filing last-minute appeals, trying to avoid a Tuesday appointment in Virginia's death chamber.

The legal scramble is reviving memories for countless in the D.C. region who lived through the three weeks in October 2002 when Muhammad and his ward, Lee Boyd Malvo, went on a rampage that terrorized the capital region.

Picking out strangers at random, they opened fire from a hole cut in an old car, leaving notes behind to taunt police and to celebrate the carnage they inflicted. By the time the pair was finished, 10 were dead, three were wounded and many more who had already lived through the Pentagon attack on 9/11 and an anthrax scare were traumatized.

I am going to ask a question: Why is it that the state of Virginia can convict this maggot and strap him to a gurney in about seven years when so many other states have inmates on death row for decades?

Also sudden Jihad syndrome in my opinion. I saw Malvo’s drawings and they left no doubt in my mind.

The bleeding hearts have been quiet for a long time. Even Tim Kaine, the governor who claims to be opposed to the death penalty because he’s a Catholic.

Yes, definitely some jihad references in those drawings. It was a spooky time.

I almost hope 0bama commutes him to life in prison, so it will remove all doubt, even to all the rats, that our freakin president, is in fact, a true Muslim.

Tuesday will be a day to remember the victims and a day to celebrate the death of this mutant.
