I do believe that "racist sexist homophobe" is the term that is currently in vogue.

According to his voting record and platform, he absolutely was a liberal. There was no reason to believe he'd be in favor of a bill like the NDAA at time we voted for him.
That's right -- there was no way that anyone could see it coming at all.

Worst that can happen: Britain says no, what can the United States do then? Britain has to agree for the extradition, yes? If this guy gets extradited it's not only on the American government that's responsible
No, the worst that could happen is that he fights extradition in a British court and loses, with the judgement rendered in such a way that it drastically lowers the bar for future cases.

And watch what happens when someone tries to make a live-action movie about their exploits. Do you really think that Disney's simply going to stand idly by and let them do it, or are they more likely to initiate legal action ?

Right, boycott. Then, on the off chance that the boycott is successful in reducing profits, all the "cartels," will do is complain to the media and the lawmakers that "dem ebbul piwates aw steawing fwom us," and (surprise, surprise) even more laws get passed in their favor, against us.
Oh, and by the way, I rarely pirate my stuff. I do, on occasion, download a movie to see if it worth buying when it's released on DVD. Bought quite a few that way. In fact, bought the whole Kevin Smith collection after downloading and watching JSBSB.
Works the other way, too. It's kept me from wasting my time and money on trash like SW:E1/2/3...
