Fort Hood survivor supports gunman's execution by firing squad but questions livestream

Lunsford explained that while he is concerned about the "effect" and "message" a livestream would send to younger people, when it comes to the survivors, their families and the families of the victims, they "should be able to look at it"."I'm gonna be there [to watch in person] and before they pull the trigger, I want him to look at me in my eyes and I look at him in his eyes and I want him to know: 'Dude you failed, I'm still here,'" he said."I don't really have any sympathy for him as far as firing squad vs lethal injection, hanging or gas chamber, because he didn't have that same compassion when he did the deed on 5 November," the former sergeant explained. "I think the method is befitting for him because the lethal injection - that's doing him a favour. gas chamber? Is doing him a favour."But Lunsford said that as a Christian, he has forgiven Hasan because "I cannot heal if I don't forgive him"."We're taught that with your last breath you can ask for forgiveness and I think that's what he [Hasan] should do," he added.Telling his account of what happened that day, he said Hasan got out of his chair and jumped onto a counter, before pulling out a weapon and discharging rounds.
