As I understand comments from the people in the States via the news, It was agreed by the US that the terrorist would serve a life sentence in Scotland.
That means he is supposed to die in prison. That's the point. That was the sentence. The fact that he gets terminal cancer doesn't change the sentence: He is supposed to die in prison. Again, that was the point. If he gets terminal cancer then he will die sooner--- in prison. MacAskill chose on his own to usurp the agreed upon judgement and sentence, by his own will, and on his own. He did have the responsible choice of denying the application. It isn't a case of two wrongs don't make a right as he claims at the end of the text interview. There is no 'wrong' in keeping him in prison until he dies. Again, that was the judgement and sentence agreed upon by the US and the court system of Scotland that sentenced him. I think MacAskill should be removed from office, stripped of any protections afforded by that office, and all legal means (criminal and civil suits) should be pressed against him. --Mike --- To make changes to your subscription contact: Bill Southerly ([email protected])
