Hasan will reportedly be executed by lethal injection.

Now that Nidal Hasan has been given the death sentence will he continue to receive full pay and benefits from the military?

No:

His pay stops immediately and he is being escorted off post. #Hasan #NC25HasanTrial

Some reaction so far:

Scumbag traitor Hassan will get the needle. Too bad we can't feed him to the sharks. #caring

Nidal Hasan gets death penalty – so what? When will he actually die? No hanging, no firing squad, no stoning to death #forthood

Nidal Hasan wants to be a martyr. We should be glad to help him try.
