How can we forget this ASSHOLE:
“General George Casey, the Armys top officer, is concerned that diversity will become a casualty of the Fort Hood tragedy.
TEXAS-SHOOTING/The religious beliefs of suspect Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim Army psychiatrist, have led to speculation about motive in the shooting rampage that killed 13 people.
Im concerned that this increased speculation could cause a backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers. And Ive asked our Army leaders to be on the lookout for that, Casey told CNNs State of the Union.
Asked on NBCs Meet the Press whether Muslim soldiers are conflicted in fighting wars in Muslim countries like Afghanistan and Iraq, Casey said: I think thats something that we have to look at on an individual basis. But I think we as an Army have to be broad enough to bring in people from all walks of life.
The bottom line is the military benefits from diversity, he said.
Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think thats worse, Casey said.
THAT’S RIGHT. An impact to our “DIVERSITY” is worse than INNOCENT folks being slaughtered.
It was just “workplace violence”, nothing to see here.
Move along.
Don’t worry. He will, unless he finds Christ.
“Most would say that if you have a murder where witnesses number past ten...there probably shouldnt be more than 30 days of delay before the execution.”
I believe Texas law is like this. Hasan is locked up in death row at Ft. Leavenworth, Ks. It takes years to go through the required appeals process and the final act of a sitting POTUS to approve the execution. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been a military execution since 1961, so don’t hold your breath.
Problem here is that it has been so long since the incident that the effect to deter others from doing it has been dissolved. So putting him to death won’t mean much, if anything, by using the law for its main purpose. It becomes an extermination rather than an execution. And killing him now only adds to the appearance of the “I’ll get my virgins theory” for others to observe. Has no positive effect. It just, in the minds of the fledgling muslims, reinforces the afterlife goals of jihadists. So unless he is executed by muslims, he, even in death, helps his cause.
