Terrible tragedy going on right now at U.S. Army base

Torture? Are you kidding me? Look at gitmo, we hate torture. The guy will get life in prison.

And you'll be paying for it. A bullet's cheaper

That ain't terrorism. That was a guy too scared to face combat duty and hid behind religion.

Coward, nothing more. Shameful person who was too scared to do his duty, too weak to kill himself on his own.

Yeah...but torturing him would be more satisfying.

while I would love to see that happen, I know it would'nt be right. Not because of him. Just because that's what makes us different from the bad guys around the world

Now Death is a different story

Personally I wouldn't put a whole lot of faith in The Telegraph.

Exactly

can the Military give you the death penalty? I know they have it in Texas

Yes the UCMJ does include the death penalty but it hasn't been used is decades. Also from his prespective death is a martyr death caused by his enemy in the cause is a way to eternal bliss. No life in prison (peferably in a small cell) where his only outlet is chained to break up rocks (i can say definitively in the 90's the army still used chain gangs to break up boulders into gravel at Ft leavenwoth I hope they still do) or scub latrines by hand is a harsher punishment.

[jds1911a1]

If military crimes fall under the umbrella of a federal crime... then yes, if the crime is treason.

And shooting up a military base when you're a member of said military sure counts as treason in my book. Treason, the one crime the federal government can punish with death.

Actaully treason is a very different crime. that entails a transfer of government information to a foreign agent. I know UCMJ allows death penalty for desertion in the face of the enemy but I am not a JAG and have been out long enough I no longer have a copy of the UCMJ to read over. I don't know every instance it does allow for death penalty but it is very uncommon. An intreresting argument might be to say he went on the shooting spree to avoid combat and apply the death penalty that way but I don't think it would work

The SRC process is what I just got done with doing here at Fort Lewis (flying overseas in a few weeks..). It's a pretty busy process, lots of long lines of soldiers, getting all their medical/finance/legal records checked.

Hate to say, but unfortunately as we've seen, he picked a pretty vulnerable spot to go nuts.

My sympathies to the families left behind.

Remember the Miami Seven? They wanted to play dress up and be Al Qaeda too.
Major Terror Ring Or 'Al Qaeda Lite'? - CBS News

Who knew that a terrorist organization was so picky about its agents? I guess it's a Hirer's Market everywhere these days.

That had to be one painful rejection letter to receive in the mail...
"Thank you for your interest in our organization, but currently we have no available positions. We will keep your resume on file."

Death to America,
Mr. Albert Qaeda CEO
