Can The U S Execute This Terrorist? Do New York State's Death Penalty Rules Cover It?

I googled and as far as I can tell they have the death penalty for killing a police officer or committing murder whilst on a life sentence. Maybe federal laws applies in terrorism cases. Does that allow execution? This is not a debate about the rights and wrongs of executions.

Naomi - // What gives you the idea that that’s an emotional response? From my own point of view there’s no emotion whatsoever involved. It’s the sensible solution. //
From posts at 20:21, 21:17, and 21:35 - and that's just a couple of posters on here - the rest of the world has millions of people who have a similarly emotional response.
I am aware of your cold clinical unemotional attitude to the concept of execution - but it's not all about you, is it?

Naomi - You asked me what 'gave me the idea' that it was an emotional response - I have answered your question.
I haven't assumed anything - I take the posts as read, I believe they are posted as an emotional reaction, and I do not say that as a criticism, merely an observation.
My point was, and is, that we keyboard warriors are allowed the luxury of emotional responses if we wish to air them - the President is now, although history shows that he clearly thinks he is!
I think his habit of knee-jerking on Twitter is inappropriate for a head of state - but as long as he doesn't act on that, it's fine, and fortunately, as he has found to his continual frustration, he is not able to simply get his own way with a simple command - he is not in Trump Tower any more, and the free world can be grateful for that.

andy-hughes, //I haven't assumed anything - I take the posts as read, I believe they are posted as an emotional reaction//
You have no reason to believe they’re posted as an emotional reaction. Therefore you’re making that assumption. Perhaps you should ask the people who have posted them. Then you'll know.

You are turning into AOG, and trying to turn a thread into an argument between what I think, and what you think about what I think.
It's tiresome when he does it, so let's not wander down the same path shall we?
I have said what I think, and why. Disagree by all means, but let's not derail the thread with a forensic examination of everyone's motives behind their posts as well - that's just tedious.

Haaa! That's funny. Sneaky.... very sneaky ..... but funny. Poor old aog seems to be a bit of a scapegoat in more ways than one, but only a very foolish reader would be fooled by your disingenuous nonsense. Read the posts and you'll find that you alone on this thread claim to know what motivates those who want rid of these people. Psychoanalysis is clearly yet another of your failings.
