  1. …if President Trump wins in 2020, justice may well be-finally – served.

    If “Michelle” “Obama” wins in 2020, this guy will get a Cabinet post as Secretary for Persecution of Christians and Jews, at least until he is executed after the ensuing Civil War.

    …It’s that simple…

  2. I think this is a mistake. I mean what’s the point? He will never be put to death anyway.

    It is 20 years too late. Justice delayed is justice denied.

    No, I prefer he rot for the rest of his miserable life as an enemy combatant at Gitmo, out of sight out of mind.

  3. Turn his fate over to the Clinton Crime foundation and be done with him. Probably cost 1 billion dollars but worth every penny, especially if Mexico pays for both it and the wall!

  4. The SOBs ought to have been made dead several years ago. But they’re destined to die of old age.
    Timothy McVey is the only guy on death row I’m aware of that was executed quickly. (And I’m suspicious why it was so quick) . Took 11 years to snuff out Ted Bundy. Most people after being sentenced to death drag it out for years, decades even, before getting the juice, but often die of old age before executation day.

    I favor flying them by drone to new location for the trial, but oopsie, it crashed into sea, but they were safely ejected, then oopsie2; into a school of sharks in a feeding frenzy, and quickly transformed into shark poo. Let the crazy jihadists make a shrine out of shark turds if they like that image.

  5. Sorry. I’ve lost track of all these 9/11 Most Wanted motherfuckers. I forgot that he wasn’t already dead.
    He’ll probably outlive all of us patriots, thanks to our feckless government.

  6. @Blink; I think McVey went so fast was because as I recall he refused to allow his lawyers or any others to appeal or launch the usual MIRV missile of delaying tactics you always seem to see in these death penalty cases.
    Is this a military trial governed by military rules? If it is then I suspect it’s far more likely this fat bastard will get executed in a timely fashion then if it were civilian rules.

  7. Mark Steyn referred to the”clogged toilet of the American
    Justice system” in re Mann’s attempt to sue him into silence.

    I wonder if the fact that Federal cases are ~50% immigrants adds much to the mess.

    But hey, it keeps the lawyers rich, that’s what the justice systems for ain’t it?
