You know, I was on the fence about whether he should be released or not. On the one hand, he was convicted under the law. On the other, there seem to be a lot of doubts about the conviction and by the time any appeal process was finished, the guy might be dead - and if he was innnocent, then that process would have done him little good.
But then I read the usual vitriol from the usual suspects about how "he should burn in hell", how his "plane back to Libya should explode", how he should be made into "pate" and how Islam must "somehow" be behind the attack and it becomes easier to see the validity in letting the guy go.
It may be irrational, but I can't see myself lining up beside people who make comments like those above.
