I sincerely hope this is foiled by technical problems and treated as snuff content. A sickening thing to try and encourage people to watch.

The execution of the Fort Hood shooter will be unprecedented, marking the U.S. military's first execution in about 65 years and its first by firing squad since World War II, with the entire proceeding to be live-streamed to the public over the internet.

The last public execution in my country ended up such bloody debacle that the crowd ended up attacking the officials. The death penalty was quickly abolished after that.

We're going down a dark path. An uncivilized one. It will eventually touch people far more innocent than the criminal in this case.
