Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan sports beard, judge delays hearing!

Can you believe this?

"The judge in the trial of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan delayed pre-trial motions Friday when he ruled the defendant to be in violation of the Army's grooming standards."        

"Hasan showed up for the half-day administrative hearing sporting a beard, which the military prosecutors said was a violation of Army regulation 670-1 and court-martial rule 804(4)(1). Judge Col. Gregory Gross then went on record saying that Hasan's beard was a disruption to the proceedings.  "It is a disruption. The judge felt it was," Fort Hood media officer Chris Haug told the media. "He's in violation of the Army's dress and grooming standards."

The son-of-a-bitch is on trial for murder! What makes the Army think he'll give a rat's ass about being "in violation of the Army's grooming standards"? He has proven by his actions in November of 2009 that he is not an American soldier, but he is an enemy terrorist. They should have had MP's shave him right there in the courtroom and then proceed with the trial!!  It was nothing but a delaying tactic cloaked in "religious belief. His religion hasn't changed since he murdered 13 people, and he is still a member of the U.S. Army.


And why is he even having a trial? Here's the scenario facing the police when they arrived on the scene:
1. A roomful of dead and wounded service members.
2. One man standing, armed with two guns, who then fired upon the responding police officers, striking one.


There's only two dots to connect there. Many people dead and injured from gunshots + a shooter. If the police had done their job properly, there would be no need for a trial. Hasan would have left that room in a body bag. It doesn't take a Sherlock F. Holmes to figure this one out!


Inasmuch as Hasan did survive, there is a requirement for a trial under the heading of "Due Process". The due process of executing this man is well behind schedule.


I'm Gil, and you're not. This means that one of us is lucky!
