Lockerbie Bomber Released

[Jordy]

So you are saying that all Scottish people are to blame?

No don't be silly when someone refers to Scotland they mean the Government. And the Justice Secretary represents the Scottish Government so therefore it is Scotlands fault. You could say that it's the peoples fault for putting the SNP in power.

they should let him die from cancer, he killed all them people & did you see the people applauding him as he stepped off a plane, this whole world is sick never mind england, a life sentence should be for life not 8 years.
SICKO

Totally agreed, he should be left to rot.

'Compassionate grounds'. What the hell? He never showed any compassion did he. :rolleyes:

[Pixet]

He shouldn't be let out. It's an outrage. So what he's dying, he should burn in hell for what he done. I agree with the compassionate thing.

He's a bad, bad person and should spend the rest of his life rotting in jail. It's shocking and annoying. The law is a joke.

Kenny MacAskill is a man who knows what he's doing, there was obviously reasons for him doing it. People said he caved in, I don't see that at all. Caving in would have been doing what would probably have been an easier thing to do and just leave him in prison. It was a very brave thing to do to make that decision.

He did cave in. Caved under the pressure of the second appeal, if you ask me, that was looming which would have presumably proven that he wasn't guilty at all thus making the Scottish government look even more ridiculous.
Assuming he was guilty I agree with those seeing it as a bad decision. This also gives anyone with a lower profile (everyone) a get out of jail free card if they are terminal despite MacAskill saying "these cases are dealt with on an individual basis" there's no logic behind keeping in someone convicted of a lesser crime in jail if they are happy to let mass murders go on their way.

He killed 270 people and served only 8 years :|

They had no evidence that it was him. He was used as a scapegoat for sure.

how sick and embarrasing. can't england just wash it's hands of scotland? if they want independence let them, and sit back and watch them rot.

[hmv]

One word to the people that released him - idiots.

[Caution]

how sick and embarrasing. can't england just wash it's hands of scotland? if they want independence let them, and sit back and watch them rot.

I wish Scotland would become independent, it's embarrassing enough at the minute having anything to do with England.
We didn't have anything to do with the decision, there was no referendum. If he was held in an English prison and released the fault wouldn't lie with the English citizens would it?:rolleyes:
