The Daily Circus

The UFO Hunters were in Wales yesterday and Pat took some great photos that you can find in the UFO Mag photo gallery.

Gary McKinnon is coming to the US, but not for a vacation. I totally agree with Nick Redfern's opinion on that, a citizen of the UK or any other country should not be handed over to foreign authorities for trial. They should be tried in their own country. After all, I doubt McKinnon only broke US laws, he must have broke UK laws too. Whatever anyone may think about what McKinnon did, it just seems to be one of the basic rights that a citizen of any country should have -- to be tried by their peers on the soil of their own homeland.

It seems strange to me that McKinnon is considered a big enough criminal to have him imported for trial and yet he couldn't have got into any of those computers if they had any real security -- yet so far as I know nobody even lost their job over the lack of passwords and lack of any security on those computers.

Also, as Nick points out, we have seen no evidence of this "damage" to computer systems that he is accused of.

If bringing McKinnon over here and trying him is suppose to be some sign of how great our govenment is at protecting us from "terrorism," I can only sigh. Do you think a real terrorist would leave the obvious signs that McKinnon did? It is no great feat that they caught him. I am NOT impressed.
