So in Texas you get away with murder when you do it on a military base!!!

too bad they couldn't turn him over to the Texas Rangers. Amazing how he can beat the death penalty by killing so many on a military base.

as an officer, he should be held to a higher standard and therefore face the higher penalty.

The death penalty will not happen because, if this murderer were to be executed the entire Muslim world would rise up and attack Americans.

This is the net effect of terrorism which Muhammad designed back in the 8th century. The methodology which Islam intends to rule the world. So far they are on schedule.

People get away with murder a lot in Texas. All those DNA-exonerated people that have been executed can attest to that. In absentia.

All knowing, if we executed him using bullets dipped in something muslims deem unclean, he would not be able to get to their heaven and would not then be a martyr. I think that would be a deterrent. If they knew we dipped all our ammunition in things they deemed unclean, we could use their fanticism against them.

that the military, who trains soldiers to kill, can't execute one of their own when guilty of mass murder, not to mention treason!
