Yes. Our government has effectively told the americans that their citizens are worth more than ours.
Edit to add: It is the kind of agreement I would have expected us to make with a small 3rd world country at the height of our colonial power.

We're talking about Gary McKinnon right?
He's a fkwit. And he deserves to be tried and punished (if guilty of course) by the US.
The BBC reported that "Somebody suffering from Aspergers would find prison very hard to tolerate." I think that's the point of prison.
He knew full well what he was doing - he has said himself that he was aware of the criminality of it but that he was on a "moral crusade".
Now, he maybe doesn't deserve the chair but he ought to get a fking long prison sentence.

Anyone can reason that hacking into a government agency is going to be both illegal and highly dodgy....especially the US government.
He's a tt for trying in the first place.

He might deserve a bit of community service, tops.He's a fkwit. And he deserves to be tried and punished (if guilty of course) by the US.
His only "crime", if such it was, was to expose the rank incompetence of the American military.
It's not like he's responsible for the deaths of countless innocents, like the treasonous twunt who signed the treaty.
