I think he shouldnt be extradited too.. He can go to prison in the UK if he has to.

Not likeing the fact that its Keith Vaz saying all this.. Not a fan of his at all as he was a local MP I dont support.

He seems to have a lot of dodgy affairs so I dont trust the guy.

The guy is autistic.

He "hacked" into American websites because they were too stupid to change the default password.

They will call him a "terrorist" and lock him up for many years. They will claim that he caused "millions of dollars" in damages.

If some handicapped guy managed to "penetrate" their systems then they should look closer to home for someone to blame.

So you have political hacks too.

Lies about what Gary did, lies about the Treaty being unequal, lies about Gary's mental state, go look up Asperger's.

Playing the Anti American card for the idiot vote.

The Home Office has it right, both American and British are treated the same under the treaty.

He had his day in British Court, years in fact, and they said send him.

The Asperger's Defense has never worked once.

The objection is not to the extradition, but to the American authorities being unable to take a joke. Or in this case, to acknowledge a timely reminder that it's a good job that Wahhabists aren't renowned for their mad hacking skillz. :?

Home Affairs Select Committee is a cross party committee of the House of Commons. The chairman just has to reside.
