Pete Hegseth wants to LIVESTREAM an execution. Yes, you read that correctly. The United States government is planning to broadcast a military firing squad execution to the public.
WHAT THE HELL ARE WE DOING ANYMORE?!
The Pentagon has announced plans to livestream the December 3 execution of Nidal Malik Hasan, the former Army psychiatrist convicted of murdering 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009.
Let's be clear. Nobody is defending Hasan or minimizing the horrific crimes he committed. But since when did justice require a viewing audience? Why are we treating executions like some kind of pay-per-view entertainment?
America abandoned public executions decades ago, and for good reason. Now Pete Hegseth wants to bring that spectacle into the internet age.
In this video, we're talking about the difference between justice and revenge, the disturbing history of public executions, and why government-sponsored killing should never become entertainment.
You can believe criminals deserve serious consequences without cheering for a livestreamed firing squad.
What do you think? Has our country completely lost its mind? Let me know in the comments.
