A giant amongst men and a hero who probably helped save millions of lives by his ingenuity and talent. I may go and sit with him in Sackville Park and enjoy the day! |

"The shame is, that the old laws we used to have still exist in some countries."
More scary that countries like India and Russia are virtually reinstating them! |

The awful thing is that colonialism took these laws to these countries and now the colonial laws are being revived.
I think Alan Turing was an amazing intelligent and complex man. However, his pardon should have been accompanied by a pardon for all men imprisoned for being gay. Without that it singles out one man and his gayness is no more worthy than anyone else's.
