This is not an innocent life. And like Timothy McVeigh, the penalty should be carried out swiftly, in the minimal time allotted. No appeals, no continuances, no postponements, no motions for reversal, all of which would be futile anyway.
I really don’t want this POS on earth. I have no problem with the death penalty.
The new narrative of the America Haters is “we shouldn’t lower ourselves to his level by putting him to death”.
And then they also through in the tired old “if we execute him, he will be a marter to the radicals and we’ll make them mad”.
We don’t want any terrorists kidnapping Americans over the release of this guy.
Execution removes that possibility.
When you’re caught red-handed after scribbling your murderous manifesto in your own blood on the hull of a boat after murdering a policeman who was on the lookout for you in that nationally-high profile terrorist bombing you committed earlier in the day, does it really matter if your lawyer sleeps through the trial?
Good candidate for death penalty due to the strength of the evidence. Cases relying solely on eye witness testimony and circumstancial evidence are quite dubious, on the other hand.
I say death...if not, bambaboy will pardon him and let him free to do this again....
That arrogant pos will probably pardon him anyways, regardless
Very well said
Note that neither of those popular arguments find approval from God in Scripture. Wonder who cooked them up...?
Give me two seconds and a gun and I would be a stress free guy too.
And as far as the cop goes fry him too.
Mercy to criminals is malevolence to their victims
Drag him into the street, tie him to a stake, smear him in lard, and set him on fire.
Not al all. Use the stake in the good old fashioned Vlad Tepes way
I think even the most ardent anti-Death Penalty folks were on board with killing McVeigh.
McVeigh was significantly older than this guy, and I don’t recall that anyone else was said to have had a strong influence over him like the brother might have had in this case. I suspect life in prison will be the call. As has been said here, this is Massachusetts, not a death penalty friendly state.
If we don't execute him, he will recruit other terrorists in prison, or he may escape, or he may kill guards or other men in prison for lesser crimes. If execution was good enough for McVeigh, it's good enough for this cold-blooded assassin.
