Yes, I'm aware - but what are the ways the military can put someone to death?

Hasan will be tried in military court, found guilty and his paralyzed a$$ will be 'allowed' to lay for hours on end in his own crap because the military will be his guards, caretakers etc. More importantly his fellow prisoners will be military so he won't be allowed the privilege or refuge of being protected and nurtured like a 'pet' with the muslim population found in any State prison. I imagine eventually someone on the left will fight the death penalty w/some off-the-wall argument like he can't stand up to face the firing squad.

I'll just stick the the off the wall argument that it's just wrong to do and that's why we shouldn't do it

Meanwhile, the threat of us going to jail for not carrying car insurance is, alas, very real.

I'm sure Hasan in Texas will suitably fry in the electric chair of the most aggressive death-penalty state of the union. Whoops, no, he'll be tried in military court. Firing squad? What does our military use?

I am reminded of the brilliant mathematician John Nash, the paranoid schizophrenic made generally famous by the movie, "A Beautiful Mind". His fear of government plot, top-secret activity, and Russian threat; his imagining he was working for the CIA, etc. If Nash was experiencing that today, instead of his converting his office and a garage into a demonstration of his paranoid schizophenrenia (his cutouts, charts, etc) - he'd have an internet webpage and a few thousands "followers".

Giving the bastard Hasan the chair would be too good for him. Let one the relatives of the innocent victims that he killed shot him to death.
