I need to correct myself, sort of.

Since Pres. Reagan re-instated the death penalty in 1984 under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, the prefered method is lethal injection. There are 18 "aggravating circumstances" which called for capital punishment.

Since this is a war-time situation, he can still be shot.

Hence why it's important to point out that the guy's a Muslim. It's not that he just went nuts, it's what was in his head already. It's either that he's a "Muslim", or that he's a "Black Muslim", i.e. a NOI guy. Both are COMPLETELY different animals, but they also refute the argument that he "just went nuts".

John Allen Williams aka John Mohammad, aka the DC sniper did something similiar in DS 1.

Here is the link to the thread about Williams/Mohammad throwing a thermite thread into a tent filled with soldiers in Desert Storm: "...[John Muhammad] Williams’s unit was sent to Operation Desert Storm to clear mines and bulldoze holes in enemy lines. A few nights before the invasion of Iraq, Sergeant Berentson awoke in the early hours to find his tent, with 16 sleeping men inside, on fire. Someone had tossed in a thermite grenade. Berentson, who was fed up with Williams’s insubordination, immediately suspected Williams and told the Army’s Criminal Investigative Division. Berentson says he last saw Williams being led away in handcuffs. Williams’s military records make no mention of the incident; indeed, they suggest Williams had a distinguished gulf-war stint. But Berentson always kept Williams’s name and dog-tag number in his wallet. He says he was not surprised to see Williams’s face on television..."

I betcha this has to do with the snipers from maryland..taking crackhead orders from binladen himself.

I hadn't thought that he may have been inspired by that ... maybe. But, eerily, I had wondered about the recent incidences of crimes involving black muslims and remembered sharply the snipers. I think the clues will be come in the second perp ... was he muslim? Was he black? or was he disgruntled? Either way, a tragedy (IMO) of epic proportions.

He is a black muslim..oh yes...

It was hilarious to see Aaron Brown and the imbedded CNN reporter while they stumbled all over themselves to not mention the the black Muslim angle that Sky News already reported. I've never heard so many "ums" and "ahs".

[BunnySlippers]

Do we have Muslim psychos on President Bush's Secret Service security detail?

Gosh, I hope not but it's a good question. Almost all black muslims are converted in prison ... surely no presdiential detail would have been an ex-con.

[dc-zoo]

Need to check if there were muslims on board the downed choppers. Check the maintenance crews.

WHOA!!!!

[Freedom2specul8]

All of these speculations are making me dizzy.. Scary as Heck!

[BunnySlippers]

He is a black muslim..oh yes...

Oops, this is the first I have heard. The second perp is a black muslim? Horrible, horrible ...

[mustapha mond]

Slowly we see things more clearly. How many more sleepers are waiting to strike? Watch your backs. --MM

[goodnesswins]

Seems "certain" Muslims are Crazy...this guy was already in trouble.....like a blinking red light. That they left him in control of some ammo is amazing to me.

[Diddle E. Squat]

Time reporter Jim Lacey just said on CNN that when confronted, the suspect admitted to the attack before being taken into custody.

[goodnesswins]

There is NO second perp....AP retracted their story.

[Grampa Dave]

Most Black Muslims should never be in the military or near a gun or a grenade.

[Freedom2specul8]

I thought we were talkin about the 1st one...don't know about the 2nd guy/gal yet.

[CindyDawg]

I missed something. There was another one involved?

[BunnySlippers]

OK, I read it on FR, not A:P. :)

[goodnesswins]

Yes, I've heard there are Muslims in the Secret Service for the President....if my memory serves me clearly.
