Government rejects pardon request for Alan Turinghttp://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-16919012
Citat:
The government has rejected calls for computer pioneer Alan Turing to be granted an official pardon for convictions for homosexuality dating back to the 1950s.
An online petition of over 23,000 signatures had requested the pardon.
Justice Minister Lord McNally dismissed the motion in the House of Lords.
"A posthumous pardon was not considered appropriate as Alan Turing was properly convicted of what at the time was a criminal offence," he said.
In 2009 former Prime Minister Gordon Brown issued an official apology to Mr Turing, labelling the treatment he had received as "utterly unfair" and "appalling".
Kakva sramota za UK vladu. Propustili su sansu da se bar malo operu za unistavanje zivota jednog od najvecih velikana racunarstva.
Jos je bedniji i izgovor ministra pravde koji vredja inteligenciju - moze covek misliti, pomilovanje nije adekvatno zato sto je covek osudjen za krivicno delo.
Pa cemu sluze pomilovanja? Za ljude koji nisu osudjeni mozda?
