I would suggest they offer him a pig blood transfusion and see what he's willing to say then. It's all going to be a quid pro quo thing, though. His lawyer is going to have to get something to try to keep him from being executed. I somehow doubt the lawyer will be successful, but who knows?

There's no way they're going to gas this chump. Look at all the terrorists that have been convicted since 9/11. Not a single one got the ax. It's a PC thing...notice how fast they put McVeigh on ice?

My guess would be that he would never be in the general population...

He'll be segregated out of the general population, just like all the other jihadists that have been sent to prison. He'll go to that cushy little lock up in Colorado.

What are you even trying to say? Is this a veiled race thing or something?
 
Re: Gunfire, explosions reported around Dexter Street in Watertown. (Boston)[W: 83]

I hope they have some great forensics going on up there. I'd hate to hear this guy is convicted of being an accessory.

You are 19 yrs old and you are about to embrace a new world. Twenty-Three hours a day in concrete cell with a bed, chair and desk. One hour a day you are allowed into a small outdoor space with 20 ft walls. Three times a day food is slid under your door without any conversation. Three times a week you are allowed to go to a hallway shower. That is your future scum.

I just find it funny, that they haven't sentenced a single jihadist to death, but they couldn't execute McVeigh fast enough.

Why do you supposed they aren't as eager to gas the jihadists??
 
Re: Gunfire, explosions reported around Dexter Street in Watertown. (Boston)[W: 83]

Good on Boston, and everyone involved.

They executed the DC sniper, a jiihadist, but his young accomplice got multiple life sentences without parole.

I would guess that it is because they don't want to make a martyr out of anyone.

Terrorist bombings are the jurisdiction of the fed government. MA won't get a shot at him likely.

Didn't say it was an excuse. It is simply what I think the 19 year olds story will end up being.

Has this guy been determined as a Jihadist?

And, who exactly are you referring to? Timothy McVeigh was one of the few who directly attacked the United States.

September 11th? Well, we went after the whole terrorist organization, and under President Obama we killed the leader of that organization.

Deny one of them appeals you have to deny all of them appeals. That's what being a nation of laws means.

Why are you calling one a jihadist and not the other? We don't know what their motive or reason was. If they supported the Chechen separatist movement, this violent act in America doesn't make much sense to me.

When they've got all the information from him they can, they should give the father of that woman that died at the marathon 5 minutes alone with him...........................

Having a lawyer will not impede a conviction. There is no shortage of evidence.

At 19, he can look forward to many decades of solitary confinement at the "Big Max". Plenty of time for regrets.

I agree. All I was doing is taking exception to the poster suggesting that the person not be allowed to "lawyer up" as if it is up to the police if he gets an attorney or not.

Because they usually end up dead in the battlefield in droves.

So.... Why do you supposed they aren't as eager to gas the jihadists??... and don't be shy or "PC" about it.

What does his Miranda rights have to do with you hoping that he did not "lawyer up" as if the police had any choice in the matter?

Perhaps it's because McVeigh wasn't a jihadist.
