I think we've gone well beyond being expected to treat these individuals as a matter of law and judges, and just the thought of that in and of itself is both terrifying in a 'free Nation' as it is a hardened realism. These are savages looking to die more spectacularly than the guy they are sitting next too and to be honest the last place we need one is sitting in a prison system with numbers of individuals who are convinced they are being screwed over and might have little to live for as it is. We have shifted dramatically post 9/11 and have seen the direct effects and inefficiency on the Governments part in regards to civil liberties, laws implemented from the front lawn of the White House over 4 terms but I cannot believe there is a thinking man alive that truly believes that any man who non flinchingly saws the head off of a breathing man or woman and executes prisoners can be reasoned with, or should be. They want to die in spectacular fashion... I say we help them, quick fast and in a hurry. It wouldn't surprise me and I look forward to the next time this executioner steps in front of the camera that his own head disappears into a cloud of red mist. There is no sitting on the fence and talking it out with these. We no longer have that luxury.
