Re: [mukto-mona] Gay mathematician gets royal pardon



Yes, you right. The man did not rape anybody forcibly and hence this pardon thing is totally outrageous. The state should rather acknowledge its injustice towards that man and move on.

I have serious problems with the words, "pardon" and "amnesty", when they are applied to victims and fighters of injustice.
 
Alan Turing did not do any crime, and he did not need any 'pardon'. The British government did a gross injustice to him in 1952 by castrating him. The British government and their royalty are the ones that needed pardoning by him (his departed soul or his family), not the other way around. Obviously, the British have not yet gotten civilized enough to seek an unconditional pardon from him, and are talking the nonsense of pardoning him instead.
