>>>Criminals? What crimes has he been convicted of? The only thing he has been charged with are these sex crimes which come out of the blue shortly after he published information embarrassing to some governments, including ours. Did you read the article? Maybe the charges are true, who knows, but to me they reek to high heaven. It's not even subtle. Next thing we know he will turn up dead in a mysterious boating accident.

>>>And again John gives the government and the military a pass...

>>Publishing stolen classified government documents. Has he been to trial yet? No. Does it mean he isn't a criminal? No.
>>
>>Maybe he'll be able to publish nuclear launch codes for the US ICBM forces. He'll be able to get good advertising revenue for that. That's OK - it's stuff belonging to the bad old US military and anything he can do to harm it is good. Right Mike?

>I never said that at all. If he published national secrets or put people in danger I would be right there with you throwing the book at him. I think you know as well as I do, though, that documents are classified for many reasons. My guess is it is done far more often to avoid embarrassment than to safeguard national security.


And what gives you the right to differentiate between CLASSIFIED documents as okay to publsh and others that are not okay to publish. Once again, you bias is howing clearly regardless of what your mouth is saying...
