FORT HOOD, Texas

-- The accused Fort Hood gunman's court appearance Friday for a pre-trial hearing has been delayed.

A military judge at Fort Hood was to consider a motion from the defense and hear other matters on the case.

According to a press release from Fort Hood, "The military judge stated on the record that the accused appeared in court with a beard in violation of Army Regulation 670-1 and Rules for Court-Martial 804(e)(1). The military judge stated that the appearance of the accused was a disruption to the court proceedings. As a result, the military judge delayed pre-trial motions until the near future, when either a closed circuit feed can be set up for the accused to watch the hearings from outside the court room or the accused complies with court order to appear with proper military grooming standards."

Army Major Nidal Hasan is charged with 13 counts of pre-meditated murder and 32 counts of attempted pre-meditated murder for the Nov. 2009 shooting rampage on post.

He faces the death penalty or life in prison without parole in convicted.

His military trial is set to begin in August.

Man, it seems they tried and executed McVey faster than they have tried this jihadist. Goes to show who our government is targeting as the REAL terrorists in America. It’s not jihadists.

Gimme 30 seconds with a razor and I can make sure he gets a permanent no-shaving chit.

Gimme 5 seconds with a razor...

Strap him down and let a squad of gay hairdressers shave his ass bald, from head to toe. Resume trial. 'Nuff said.

McVeigh was in the civilian system and, more importantly, he mounted no defense to speak of and waived his appeals. He’d be alive today in all likelihood had neither been the case.

>> Gimme 30 seconds with a razor

Be sure to SLAP!! some aftershave on the POS when you’re done with the shave.

Lots of alcohol in it so it burns real good.

Be a shame if you got some in his eyes though. It would burn like hell. ;-)

My first night at Basic(1958), the DI said we would all shave at 0400 hours before morning muster. On smart ass with stubble told the DI he had no razor the comeback was “you can tweese it or swinge it off but it better be missing in the AM”. The grunt asked what was “swinge” and the reply was “ use your lighter!”

I don't understand why he's being tried before a military court. After all, the government has classified his assault and multiple murders at Ft Hood as an incident of "workplace violence."

So add another charge of violating AR 670-1. I’m sure his beard won’t stop a needle/bullet/rope.

Or save a lot of time and money and just give this POS to me. I know where there are a few pig farms....

I’d think that a strong case of treason could be made against Hassan.

Fox news heated this up today with the documentary tonight regarding the shooting. It clearly shows a cover up by the Holder run IN-JUSTICE department. How this is not an act of terrorism should be made a major election issue.

This has been classified as work place violence.

We need a change in 2012 in the white House.

Very sad when our political correctness calls TERRORISM work place violence.
