A Straw Poll: Do You Care What Happens

[bazwillrun]

to Qatada once he is out of our country

a simple yes or no

[society]

Sir.P, when did you ever know the requests on here are followed. :)

[sir.prize]

having reasons and rationale is too 'technical' apparently

and unnecessary.

[sir.prize]

society . . . it seems a lost cause doesn't it?

[jim360]

Since when was being rational an optional extra?

[youngmafbog]

Yes, I want him to suffer.

[chrissa1]

No.

[Kathyan]

No.

[maggiebee]

Not really

[jake-the-peg]

But you did care if Garry McKinnon got extradited?

Good job he wasn't a muslim with Aspergers' who'd hacked American computers eh? Or you'd have had him straight off to Guantanamo


All down to whether someone is 'one of us' I suppose?

[jim360]

Something has gone seriously wrong when we wish pain and death on another human being.

[joeluke]

^ Difference is Garry McKinnon isn't a terrorist

[sir.prize]

jim - that is exactly why lots of people do not like Qatada

[Sharingan]

Yes, we live in a civiilsed country which ought to ensure that we do not deliver anyone into the hands of people who will not treat them in a civilised way. It's not about personally liking the man, it's about behaving ourselves with a decent moral compass.

[jim360]

Quite, sir.prize - so we do we do exactly the same as he is then?

[jake-the-peg]

Really Joe Luke ?


Do share your extensive knowledge of Qatada's crimes

[TWR]

Just typical of the do-gooders>>>>Something has gone seriously wrong when we wish pain and death on another human being.

Why don't you take him in to your house Jim, it would save this country a lot of money.

[jim360]

a) I don't have a house yet, I'm a student.

b) Just because I don't want someone to be tortured doesn't mean I have to want them in my house. But it's just, well, we are criticising someone for wanting us all dead and some of us want him dead? Isn't that a touch hypocritical?

[New Judge]

"But you did care if Garry McKinnon got extradited? "

No I did not.

[sir.prize]

c) Doesn't it bug you to hear what benefits Qatada gets, while you are still waiting to get your own house?

[mccfluff]

yes
