KILLEEN, Texas — The US Army psychiatrist charged with killing 13 people in a shooting spree on a Texas army base has been ruled sane and thus fit for trial, a source familiar with the case said.

The ruling by a group of medical experts, called a sanity board, opens the door for a court martial that could end in the execution of Major Nidal Hasan, who was paralyzed from the neck down during the November 5, 2009 massacre.

Neither prosecutors nor retired Army Colonel John Galligan, a veteran military lawyer representing Hasan, 40, would confirm the board's decision.

SANE!? Who cares if he’s sane? I mean really the man is paralyzed from the neck down isn’t he. He’s useless. What’s Obama doing spending all this money on a trial? Just turn him over to ObamaCare.

[Mr. Jazzy]

Alert the firing squad.

[elpadre]

the wheels of justice move much, much too slow!!!

[PogySailor]

“Alleged”???

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Of course he is sane. Evil is not insane. It is just evil.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Git a rope.

Major Nidal Hasan, who was paralyzed from the neck down during the November 5, 2009 massacre.

Is this true? First I heard of it. Makes my night.

[eyedigress]

No kidding. I hope that bastard starves from his inability to reach birdseed.

Major Nidal Hasan, who was paralyzed from the neck down during the November 5, 2009 massacre. Is this true? First I heard of it. Makes my night. Yes it is true.

Tie Hasan on a plank; stand plank up against wall.

Commence firing!

He killed 13 unarmed soldiers and one unborn human being.

Execution is the only justice any American should stand for.

[Sarajevo]

Alleged?

Hang the SOB.

From the day following the attack (Nov 6, 2009)...

"Major Nidal Malik Hasan, who allegedly killed 11 people [count now 13, or 14 if you include the unborn child of the 21-year-old female soldier -etl] before being shot and wounded by police at Fort Hood, had said Muslims should "rise up" and attack Americans in retaliation for the US war in Iraq, a former army colleague said."

"He said Muslims should stand up and fight the aggressor and that we should not be in the war in the first place." He said that Major Hasan said he was "happy" when a US soldier was killed in an attack on a military recruitment centre in Arkansas in June. An American convert to Islam was accused of the shootings.

Col Lee alleged that other officers had told him that Major Hasan had said "maybe people should strap bombs on themselves and go to Times Square" in New York."

Execute him.

Soon.

[Ronin]

It would be fitting if some soldiers kidnapped him from his hospital room, took him into a dessert and dumped him in the sand.

Him being eaten alive by vultures sounds just about right — and can you imagine all the fun he would have waiting for the first one to show up?

[Let's Roll]

And I hope it was the lady cop’s bullet that did it.

[eyedigress]

Well, let’s watch O’dumbass step in on this, it is in his blood.

[unixfox]

Well now, this is gonna piss off the liberals/marxists/socialists.

[unixfox]

Hang the SOB.

Why waste good money on a rope when a .50 bullett will do just fine.

[HushTX]

Rope is easy to reuse. Brass can be refilled, but isn’t that a bit too much work for this guy?
