According to the @reuters.com report... This will be the first person to be executed by firing squad by the US military since 1945. #UrbanViewMornings

NEW: President Trump has privately shared misgivings about livestreaming the firing-squad execution of the Fort Hood shooter, according to four people who have spoken with the president.

See when the Taliban does it its bad, but when Murica does it its acceptable for.. some reason.
