Exactly. Justice should be blind to special interest groups. It used to be. The left mounted huge campaigns to get Sacco and Vanzetti off, Alger Hiss off and then the Rosenbergs. All five of them were guilty and the agitation didn't work. But things changed in the 1960s. The criminals became the victims. Well funded groups are trying to spring Mumia Abu-Jamal, Lori Berenson, Leonard Peltier, Pollard and who knows how many others. Years ago, I used to buy into the idea that, yeah, maybe there was an injustice and these groups were sincere. No longer. Not after so much of what the left has claimed about these people turned out to be flat out lies. I'll leave it all up to the juries and the judge. I know if you or I or anyone we know ends up in jail, there won't be anyone spending tons of money trying to convince everyone we are innocent.

Personally, I have no iron in this fire. But, the question is not whether Pollard is guilty, but whether the sentence fits the crime.
