Good riddance.

1. This is so funny.

I wish they had kept him.

[Demeter]

2. I wish we could deport him

Don't know any nation that would take him, though. Vatican City, perhaps?

[rpannier]

5. No way. Not even

The Vatican has no death penalty
He needs to go where men are men and know how to deal with it...
Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia

I'm sure he'll feel so warm and cozy

The guys a fucking whack job
They ought to dump him on a deserted island that's disappearing or just drop in the ocean and let him swim
I'm sure God will call a pod of dolphins or something to ride him back to the US

3. Why do we get stuck with him? The POS is gonna come back here and cry about how he was

persecuted for being a christian for terrorist fund raising, recruiting and training.

He needs a direct flight to GITMO and tried for terrorism along with the rest of his ilk.

4. Why isn't he on the usa no fly list and left stuck in 'no mans land' like old hate speaker d. duke?

[davidpdx]

6. As it states in the article, he shouldn't have even been allowed to board the plane

The airline fucked up as they should have checked that before he was allowed to board.

8. Exactly.....

without a visa for Australia, he never should've been allowed on the flight in the first place. I'm still wondering how he managed to get aboard....did he bluff his way on board? Did he threaten the staff?

7. Please, can't we find a way to abort him? nt

[niyad]

9. damn, I was hoping they would keep him--send him walkabout, or something.

[DBoon]

10. Someone should have told him

that they stopped sending felons to Australia over 100 years ago

[eppur_se_muova]

11. No no no .... we don't want him !

Let's compromise, and drop him off halfway in between.



Now that looks like a good spot.

12. Sorry, USA. You got Rupert Murdoch

We got John Butler. And, no, you're not getting him back.
