I don't understand this move to pardon Alan Turing for bumming.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Is it not acknowledged that he was a bummer? And is it not a matter of historical record that bumming was against the law? So he was quite rightly convicted of bumming. Just because he achieved some rather marvellous stuff, you can't ignore the law.

:judge: Guilty. Remains guilty.

I hope he explains this stance either directly before or after the inevitable schmalzy, cringeworthy and mawkish speech saying how much he admired him, minutes from his death.

Should we send all drug users to prison? They are breaking the law, so would it be right?

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

And yes, if the law as it stands demands a prison term for convicted drug users then that is what should happen. If the law is wrong, we should change the law, not ignore it.

[Ashberto]

Although of course you are right that it is rather absurd to single individuals out for token, posthumous, gestures like this.
