US sniper sentenced to death
http://news.ninemsn.com.au/World/story_43045.asp
Quote: | AP - Sniper mastermind John Allen Muhammad was sentenced to death by a judge who called the Washington-area shootings that left 10 people dead "so vile that they were almost beyond comprehension".
Muhammad denied any involvement in the October 2002 rampage, echoing a claim of innocence he made in his opening statement to the jury when he briefly represented himself in court.
"Just like I said at the beginning, I had nothing to do with this, and I'll say again, I had nothing to do with this," Muhammad said.
He told the judge he planned to appeal, saying: "Don't make a fool of the Constitution of the United States of America."
Muhammad's teenage accomplice, Lee Boyd Malvo, will be sentenced to life in prison after a jury spared him the death penalty. |

Yep, but the fact is he is only ONE wacko. The day US lawmakers finally get serious about controlling the amount and nature of firearms freely available is the day I may regain some semblance of confidence in US systems.
The day that the board of the National Rifle Association, their ilk and their lobbyists are placed on trial on capital charges, I'd like to see that.
Otherwise, they just tinkering with things. _________________ he's an animal, what can u expect!!! |

As shown in the wake of David Hookes death, Australia is a very poor organ donating nation. The U.S. is one of the best.
The reason for this is their gun laws. Plenty of ppl getting shot close to hospitals where they can be stabilised and the organs kept in prime condition until the life support is switched off.
So the question beckons, more guns = more life saving donations.
Funny world we live in! |
