You mean to tell me that prison isn't fun? That prison isn't all leisure and good times? Well the "American Taliban" John Walker Lindh is wanting out of jail. Of course, his mother is defending her son "John has been in prison for more than five years, and it is time for him to come home," she said.
Well explain to me when victims of the 9/11 attacks get to "come home". When does John Michael Spann get to "come home"? He supported the Taliban, was carrying explosives, and didn't lay down his arms when we came knocking down the front door. So fuck him, let him rot in jail. I say 20 years is a slap on the wrist.
His mother is also complaining about the sentence of David Hicks being "only 9 months". Sweety, you forget that he spent 5+ years in Guantanamo Bay. I agree that his sentence was a bit light, but you can't say "well I killed a guy and got life, but this guy killed a guy and he got 20 years". The circumstances of each case warrants individual case.
Jack Cloonan, former head of the FBI's bin Laden squad in New York said it best. "He can be a sympathetic figure, clearly, but in the end you have to take responsibility for your actions."
