The death penalty is a possible sentence for Treason. Only a leftist commie
sympathizer would refer to it as a lynching - LOL.

The only issue would be her "Aid and Comfort to the enemy" and would have
nothing to do about the issues of the war itself.
It doesn't matter what her political views are or if the war was justified.
She committed Treason and at the very least put American soldiers in
danger - period. Spy's have been executed during peacetime. She committed
Treason during wartime.
Have you no sense?

A book was written about Hanoi Jane by two lawyers and is noted in this
thread. I suggest you put down the Leftist propaganda newspaper and read a
real book once in a while.

What you suggest is justice is actually lynching. It would be interesting
to actually have such a trial BEFORE the execution. Such a trial would
provide a forum where the accused could raise all of the issues, including
the lawfulness of the war.

Shooting or Hanging for Traitors,is my Vote.I think I prefer stringing
them up in the public square.

Lynching, so far as I am aware, refers to hanging of a person without
benefit of a trial. The definition could have changed.. YMMV.

However, the killing of any person without benefit of a trial is murder,
irregardless of the crime of which they are accused.

Funny coincidence department. I've always been under the same impression,
but I've been studying up on the subject recently and have learned that it
means (and always has) execution without the benefit of due process, usually
by a mob. (I'm not sure where the exact line between straight out, plain old
murder and a lynching murder is.) It's just that hanging was the usual
method in the U.S. and so we make the connection between the two.

However, the killing of any person without benefit of a trial is murder,
irregardless of the crime of which they are accused.

Irregardless isn't a word, either. ;)

From Merriam Webster online:

One entry found for irregardless.


Main Entry: ir·re·gard·less
Pronunciation: "ir-i-'gärd-l&s
Function: adverb
Etymology: probably blend of irrespective and regardless
nonstandard : REGARDLESS
usage Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th
century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of
usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark
about it is that "there is no such word." There is such a word, however. It
is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to
time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is
still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.
