Now you know what a modern blood libel looks like....
In fairness, I can see some people having a different point of view. Alright, then, argue with facts and logic. Consider that we have a mechanism to apply a certain amount of compassion and to actually let someone go home without serving their full sentence under certain circumstances. Worse spies than Pollard were actually released for time served before serving half of shorter sentences. Then tell me reasons why Pollard deserves so much worse. Not just stating “well he was really really bad”.
So, given the vehemence and the nastiness of the opposition, it is hard not to feel that there is some undercurrent working here.
Precisely my point.
I have no dog in this fight, but I see FReepers of high standing and long reputation arguing like petulant little girls when it comes to Pollard.
My sincere question is: why?
