Fort Hood gunman paralysed by bullet wounds, lawyer says

Major Nidal Hasan in pain and not a flight risk, hearing told



Major Nidal Hasan, who has been charged with 13 murders over the shootings at Fort Hood in Texas, is paralyzed from the neck down, incontinent and in severe pain, according to his lawyer.

The lawyer, John Galligan, told a hearing by a military magistrate yesterday that the army psychiatrist, who is accused of killing 12 soldiers and a civilian on 5 November, that his client was severely wounded by four bullets fired by military police and is not a flight risk. The magistrate was considering whether to move Hasan, 39, to a more secure location than the army hospital he is being treated at in San Antonio. He ruled that the major could remain where he is for now.

No, the poor guy is paralyzed, incontinent and in severe pain. Let's be compassionate and give him a break. After all, he was only following allah's will when he killed and maimed all those infidels. Don't keep him locked up in the hospital, and certainly don't put the misunderstood victim behind bars. Load him on a stretcher and take him here:

Tell him they're virgins.
