I say we give John Walker the same kind of mercy he gave to the 3000+ victims who died a horrible death in the WTC and the Pentagon. John Walker fully supports that act of mass murder, he has plainly stated that fact! I say we the people of the United States of America give the same mercy to the traitor, John Walker that he gave to the two fatherless children of Johnny Mike Spann, the same mercy he gave to Johnny Spann's young widowed wife, left to raise her children on her own. Look at the picture of little Alison Spann, age 9, Johnny Spann's daughter. She knows her Daddy is never coming home again. Walker was captured in the same battle in which Johnny Spann was killed. The traitor Walker could even be the one that killed him, if not he would have gladly and without a moments hesitation pulled the trigger that ended Johnny Spann's life. The traitor Walker richly deserves the penalty for treason and aiding the enemy in time of war. The traitor Walker should be hung by the neck until dead.
