Support Your Local Gunfighter: 9-11 Mastermind Requests Death Sentence

Justice for Daniel Faulkner

"Support Your Local Gunfighter is the best thing to happen to law enforcement since Vic Mackey."

The idiotic opinions expressed here are mine and mine alone, and in no way reflect the views of the Philadelphia Police Department. I mean, if they did, this town would be in a heap of trouble, right?

9-11 Mastermind Requests Death Sentence

Well, by all means, let's fire up Ol' Sparky!

GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba - Khalid Sheikh Mohammed said Thursday that he would welcome the death penalty for his confessed role as mastermind of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

"Yes, this is what I wish, to be a martyr for a long time," Mohammed told a military judge who warned that he faces execution if convicted of organizing the attacks on America. "I will, God willing, have this, by you."

The former No. 3 leader of al-Qaida and four alleged co-conspirators were being arraigned Thursday in their long-awaited first appearance before a war-crimes tribunal. All five face death if convicted of war crimes including murder, conspiracy, attacking civilians and terrorism in the 2001 attacks, which killed 2,973 people. (H/T - AP via Yahoo!)

Believe it or not, I am torn by this request. On the one hand, I would like to see Mohammed be spared, so he can rot in prison and lose his desired martyr status. On the other hand, I would very much like to see him be put to death in one of the following ways:

Sex with Rosie O'Donnell.
Rusty, dull guillotine.
Pig blood transfusion.
