Lauri Love is a British activist facing extradition to the U.S. and 
decades in prison for protesting the persecution of U.S. internet 
activist Aaron Swartz. Lauri Love needs our help!

*David Burrowes MP has asked if everyone can email their MPs asking them 
to sign a letter he's sending to President Barack Obama. The letter will 
go out on Friday; so this is urgent.*

*Lauri Love is a computer scientist *from Stradishall in the UK who has 
a long history of political activism. He played a prominent role in the 
student and Occupy movements in Glasgow, Scotland, during 2011-2012. 
Love is facing potential extradition to the United States for his 
alleged involvement in #OpLastResort, the series of online protests that 
followed the persecution and suicide of Aaron Swartz.

*Love is being pursued by the U.S. criminal justice system *for 
allegedly protesting abuses by that same system, with prosecutors in 
three U.S. court districts accusing Love of hacking into various 
government websites.

Love's extradition hearing thus far has shown that justice would mean 
keeping him at home, and that any trial should happen in the UK. The 
U.S. must not be allowed to extradite without showing evidence, without 
proving damage, and for a crime allegedly committed on UK soil.
