No Wednesday In Japan or Wednesday with Waldie
but a story and a question today.
Regular programming is interrupted for today...
what she sayin' ?
yert !
I am a nerd, love science fiction, history, maps, clouds and most of all mysteries.
When I was younger my Mum and I would watch and read all sorts of mysteries together.
One of my earliest mystery remembrance was watching The 39 Steps, by Alfred Hitchcock with Mum late one night, I think I was first year in High School at the time
Later when at University and I got home late from working at my job after classes, we would sit there and watch what ever mystery was on the Tucson Saturday Night Show.
Fast forward to today and I still love to watch the mysteries on TV from Murder She Wrote, Law and Order, to my UK favorites, Rosemary and Thyme, Midsomer Murders, Inspector Morse, Inspector Lewis, anything by Agatha Christie and my new favorite Murder In Suburbia.
Love the theme song, the two main actress have good fun playing off each other. The mysteries can be figured out fairly easy but it is a fun watch.
Law and Order UK is interesting because of the different court system. Plus the Judges and Lawyers all wear the great robes and wigs so you think "Oh My Goodness" they are so intelligent. Must be the accent to my American ears.
But then I did watch Rumpol of the Bailey so maybe not.
But then the UK blew up my Law and Order dream world last week !
Yes, I know TV is different from real life especially shows about the law but just go with me for a moment.
I have the BBC World News on my computer.
Any news I have read about this story came from the BBC.
The US papers are not following this story or not the papers I read.
Here is my question or confusion.
Last week on BBC it was all about British computer hacker Gary McKinnon not being extradited to the US.
Last week, Home Sectary Teresa May announced that extradition would breech his human rights. She said "Mr McKinnon is accused of serious crimes but there is no doubt he is serious ill.
Now remember this comment for later....
Quick re-cap
Ten years ago Gary McKinnon who has Asperger's syndrome and depressive illness, was 36 when he hacked into several American East Coast military bases. He stole and wiped out codes, stole information and generally when on a search and destroy. His excuse was he was looking for UFO's.
WTF !
He has been fighting extradition for ten years.
He didn't break into any UK military bases and god knows the UK have so much more UFO's and aliens than America. With the crop circles and Stonehenge alone but he chose East Coast America Military bases to look for UFO"S
Now we all know if your are looking for UFO's that you would check out Area 51 and the military bases near the Mohave Desert.... Not the East Coast of America.
UFOs ?
But what really tops this all off was the BBC article I read quoting his Mother. She said this ten year battle to keep her son from horrible America has been hard, as a Mum I do agree and sympathize with her. What a hard ten years.
But then she goes on to say.... he hasn't had a holiday in ten years.
Oh the horror, no holidays for ten year all because he hacked into Military Bases in America ?
If he is so ill as Teresa May stated why is he out and about and in one BBC story I read using the computer.
God, I hope I read that wrong !
Now I wonder how this would have played out if he had hacked into UK's military bases, destroyed codes, mucking about plus cost the government massive amounts of money.
The security of the nation comprised.
Just think if McKinnom had hacked into China's military computers !
This could have been a scary possibility.
Why would you let a "serious ill" Teresa May's words, hacker go free ?
Where was his Mother, if he was so "serious ill" ten years ago ?
Why was she not monitoring his actions?
If McKinnon is really this "seriously ill" and really can't be extradited to the US to stand trial... he should be tried in The World Court and Interpol should red flag him.
He needs to be sent to a some sort of facility/hospital where he can get treatment for his depression and his Asperger's be monitored and NEVER again be allowed to use a computer, iphone, tablet or internet ever again.
Much of this UK's decision falls on America and other nations, computers need to be safeguarded but hackers are hackers.
The UK just extradited Abu Hamzabut not McKinnon ?
probably the correct decision but...
What constitutes mental health or intent ? This is indeed a very slippery slope.
What interested me is why did he just hack America military bases ?
Why not the UK's or France, China or Russia ?
As Davis Rivkin said "Under this logic anyone can claim some kind of physical or mental problem to commit crimes with impunity and get away with it.
From what I have read in the BBC's reporting it is tiny little David standing up to the horrible abusive Goliath America.
I personally don't want him locked away in jail if he is indeed "serious ill" but he can't be left on his own and someone must take responsibility for his actions if he can not.
His Mother and Teresa May might be a good starting point here.
Repercussions.
Now excuse me, I need watch another Mrs, Marple and enjoy the English countryside, ride a bike, have lunch with the vicar and walk some tree line lanes for a hour.
Oh yes, and solve that mystery and murder with a charming detective.
I will be having some tea and crumpets with clotted cream and jam, maybe some tiny sandwiches and ummmmmmmmmm please add some little cakes too !
Back to regular programing on Friday.
