Typically Assange is the type of person I would pretty much hate. Yet something about his actions really appeals to me.


I totally love the leaking thing. I hate the fact that he would put innocent people at risk just to protect his own ass.

Fuck you assange.  The people of the world have no right to the truth!  We can't be held responsible for the evils our government's do on our behalf if we don't know about it.

DIRECT HIT!

lol, please go ahead and explain so that I can have a better viewpoint from which I laugh at you.

Tell me how an individual wanting to save his own skin by putting people in danger is the same as deposing a government after warning them repeatedly that they would be deposed for supporting someone who launched a military attack on us. :D

America is a group of individuals who are willing to put innocent lives at risk to take out terrorists. Assange is the moral equivalent of America, unfortunately.

Plus, Assange getting buttraped in prison would do no harm to the cause of Wikileaks.

I don't see how any liberal or libertarian would be opposed to at least arresting Assange for being crazy.

At least we won't have to worry about him long, now that he's put a price on his head with al Queda. :D

hahahaha, oh man, I hate the idea of wasting human life, but I kinda want to see Assange commit suicide by terrorist. Like, really badly.


Nah, he just bought free CIA protection.

Being willing to accept that war unfortunately will lead to innocents dying is not the same as intentionally targeting innocents in order to save your ass, sorry. :(

Intentions are the only difference, which is pretty lame. :(

I was thinking of an episode of Veronica Mars, actually.

Still, let's hope the CIA is as competent as ever when they protect him. :D

Intentions and potential, of course. It's possible that if you do everything right, you won't kill any civilians, in the case of war. If Assange does everything right, innocent people die, guaranteed.

Very, very different.
