Attention Terrorists: They have declared open season on the skies over the United Kingdom.

Has Senator Specter, America’s foremost expert on Scottish law, weighed in on this yet?

[RetroSexual]

Yeah, all those strongly worded letters are really bringing the Scots down.

Colonel Gadaffi has said that Prime Minister Gordon Brown had "encouraged" the Scottish Government to take what he called a "courageous" decision, but the Foreign Office has strongly denied claims it was linked to a trade deal between the UK and Libya.

Brown and Obama - two of a terrorist-loving kind.

I’ll bet the average Scott is just about as appalled as we are.

Wife and daughter have just cancelled a 10 day trip into Glasgow and touring all around the highlands and outer isles because of this terrible act!

[Gay State Conservative]

He condemned the move and said it must be made clear it was not done in the name of the Scottish people.

Ah,excuse me.Was the final decision made by an individual who was elected by the Scottish people? Or by an individual who was appointed by someone who was elected by the Scottish people? If the answer to either question is "yes" then it was,at least,done in the name of the majority of the Scottish people.

[Eaker]

Looks like something our own traitor in chief would do!

Keep our own Kenyan Klown in mind when slamming the Scots.

I have to agree. There is no valid reason to release him and certainly don't see any Christian kindness releasing him.

In terms of justice, by my way of thinking, premeditated murder of someone means you get the death penalty and he killed a lot more than one, including killing the spirits, hopes, and life of many of those who lost someone thanks to his bombing. Releasing him only harms those who survived his taking the life of someone they loved. Where's the Christian kindness in that?

He should have died in a Scottish cell asking his God to forgive him. Instead, he gets a hero's welcome home and the embrace of those who love him. Either the judge is an evil bastard or he believes the convicted bomber is innocent.

Three reasons for the UK, of which Scotland is a part, to do this......

1. OIL

2. OIL

3. OIL.

Err, well sorry Mr McConnell, but I'm afraid that it WAS done in the name of the Scottish people. You can't backtrack out of that responsibility because its turned out to be an incredibly unpopular (and stupid) decision.

[Daniel II]

And I used to be proud to call myself Scot-Irish. Sigh.
