Nidal Hasan still getting paychecks is obscene

The Blaze reports that murderer Malik Nidal Hasan is still getting army paychecks from the government:
Major Nidal Hasan, accused of the 2009 mass shooting rampage at Fort Hood that left 13 dead, has retained his military rank and continues to get paychecks from the government, the base commander said Wednesday.

Lieutenant General Donald Campbell, Jr., the commander of Fort Hood, said Hasan’s confinement and medical expenses are also being paid for by the military, KXXV-TV reported. He receives weekly medical treatment and is occasionally transported to meet with his defense team. [...]

Campbell said the actions are to ensure Hasan gets a fair trial.

“The bottom line is when you cut through everything we are as an army, we have to be fair to him regardless of what we saw or we think we saw or whatever the case may be,” Campbell said. “It’s imperative we maintain the integrity of the court martial so he gets as fair a shot as possible defending himself with his team.”
Campbell's defense is pathetic. He has already been witnessed committing murder, and should definitely be stripped of payment. He committed an abomination and should pay for his own medical costs. This is an outrage.

Avi.... it is bothersome, but it is PROPER.

Innocent until proven guilty is more than words.

Even when it is gross.
By protecting this cretin's rights we protect our own.

That's how it really is.

EPA is correct -- this is how our laws work to protect the innocent. We all know that Hasan is guilty, but he hasn't had his day in court.

Take solace in the knowledge that a quick thinking infidel female with guts and good aim permanently demoted that filthy sack of shyte, Hasan to the diaper wearing wheelchair bound invalid he is today.

Convict the filthy sack of shyte & treat him to a McVeigh special.

Compare the tenacity and speed with which McVeigh was investigated, charged, tried, convicted and executed to Hasan's timeline. IOW, don't hold your breath.
