Just sent this note to the Scottish government………..

As an American citizen I am completely outraged by your government’s decision to release a convicted terrorist on compassionate grounds after only 8 years of incarceration.  When divided by the over 250 lives which were lost that comes to about 31.25 lives per year of incarceration or 2.6 lives per month.  As a retired law enforcement officer and hazardous devices technician your actions are appalling.  As an officer who participated in homicide investigations for over 15 years including the crimes of Jeffrey Dahmer, your leniency is unparalleled.  Have you forgotten the pain of the victims themselves or their families?  Have you forgotten that many were American citizens?  Have you forgotten a country which helped to prevent your annihilation a mere 65 years ago?  It is obvious that you have and it is painfully obvious you don’t really care.  How thrilling it was to watch a convicted mass murderer receive a hero’s welcome in his native country.  I understand his native country may have close energy ties to you.  Is this true?  You may not care about someone like me or what I think, but I will promise you I will never forget your decision to release a man on compassionate grounds when it is obvious he had no compassion for others about 20 years ago.  I, prior to today had always admired Great Britain and Scotland and unfortunately this single action has greatly altered my opinion.  Do not expect me for a visit for you have betrayed justice.  Do not expect me to support you should you be threatened again and congratulations on your strengthened ties to Tripoli.  I would be very surprised by any response you might care to offer.
