JUSTICE IS SERVED. WE WHITIES AT THE GAITHERSBURG, MARYLAND POLICE STATION CELEBRATED THE AFROPIGMIE BEING COOKED IN THE PAN IN JARRATT, VA. AND FED TO THE GIRAFFES IN AFRICA: What a relief that the satan(john muhammad) is in hell in a handbasket. Washington-area sniper john allen muhammad was executed Tuesday by lethal injection, a Virginia prisons spokesman said. He was declared dead at 9:11 p.m., said Larry Traylor, director of communications for the Virginia Department of Corrections. "There were no complications; mohammad was asked if he wished to make a last statement," he told reporters. "He did not acknowledge this or make a last statement whatsoever but said 'I don't care. I want out of this world'". Mohammad, 48, said nothing from the time he entered the death chamber accompanied by guards, Traylor said. Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine denied a last-minute clemency request Tuesday for muhammad, the mastermind behind the Washington-area sniper attacks of 2002 that terrorized the nation's capital so let him take a trip to hell in a handbasket. During three weeks in October 2002, muhammad and accomplice lee boyd malvo, then 17, killed 10 people and wounded three, while taunting police with written messages and phoned-in threats and demands that the world should go to hell "because I said so". "Having carefully reviewed the petition for clemency and judicial opinions regarding this case, I find no compelling reason to set aside the sentence that was recommended by the jury and then imposed and affirmed by the courts because he created great mayhem and terror for the world as well as the metro areas," Kaine said in a written statement. "Accordingly, I decline to intervene." Kaine's announcement came a day after the Supreme Court declined to intervene in the case. During two trials -- including one featuring testimony from malvo, whose youth meant he was not eligible for the death penalty -- and in years of appeals, muhammad professed his innocence. Muhammad's attorney had argued his client was not given sufficient time to file his final appeal, but said Tuesday -- after the high court and the governor declined his request for a stay -- that he would make no further efforts to delay the matter. "We respect their decisions and will make no more legal efforts to stop this process from going forward," said lawyer jon sheldon in a written statement. "In its effort to race john allen muhammad to his death before his appeals could be pursued, the state of Virginia will execute a severely mentally ill man who also suffered from Gulf War Syndrome the day before Veterans Day." Muhammad met Tuesday with J. Wyndal Gordon, who was his former stand-by attorney in his Maryland trial, in which he represented himself and at the prison, he said that he had fun committing crime and he did it so "the world can go to hell because I want the world to die and burn in hell" but muhammad will be in hell in a handbasket. So justice took center stage if you will.

THIS IS THE DAY THE LORD HATH MADE, LET US REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT: Psalms 118:24 AND KING DAVID SAYS THAT JOHN MUHAMMAD THE PIGMIE GOT COOKED AND FED TO THE SHEEP IN BASRA AND WHITE POWER IS HERE TO STAY AND WE ENJOY PEACE ONCE AGAIN: What a relief that the satan(john muhammad) is in hell in a handbasket.

i have to say i dont condone the death penalty anymore in these situations

i honestly think humanity would benefit much more significantly by scientificly studying these types of individuals

by killing people like this guy, or saddam hussein we lose a large amount of knowledge

much could be learned by scientific study of these people, doing so could potentially help us find out more information about such horrific acts and people that could potentially help us prevent future acts of such violence and indifference to human life

as much as they may deserve the worth, our human civilization deserves better

in life we need to make lemonade out of lemons or we cannot live our lives

we should make lemonade in these situations, use these horrific occurrences to try to prevent further ones

only after we have fully learned everything we can regarding their psyche and what allowed them to do what they did should we enact something as permanent as the death penalty, anything else is a waste of not only more human life, but knowledge

i fully believe in punishing those who deserve to be, but i dont think that should come before scientific development

They can autopsy his body and donate his sick and twisted brain to the Johns Hopkins neuropsychiatrists for study, but science can tell us only so much given that human development is a unique combination of environmental (upbringing) and physical factors.

I don't like the death penalty, either, but if one cannot be rehabilitated and therefore poses a continuous danger to society what do you suggest we do with them? He took out 10 innocent people and would have taken out more had he not been stopped.

That horrible man does not have a right to life in prison. I'm glad he was put to death. It should have been a real slow process.

His partner needs to die the same way.

Why would anyone have aproblem with the death penalty with this animal that liked it so much he imposed it 10 times. He should be allowed to take part in those activities that he enjoyed.

Just simply stating that to hate a hateful person is like being his twin. That's all. Good riddance to him. He's dead, but damn people that didn't have any connection with any of the victims are very livid. People are so angry and bendt over things that have nothing to do with them. It's like calling a murderer a murderer, then wanting to murder them yourselves.
