In the news, the wikileaks dude Julian Assange has been granted bail. The claims of him running off (by the Swedish prosecution) were described as not having any credibility considering Mr Assange's previous behavior of complete compliance with the Swedish and English Authorities.
The Wikileaks founder fears extradition to the USA as a more likely possibility than being extradited to Sweden.
... So much for Freedom of Speech.. A right protected by the USA constitution.. or so the right wingers keep saying when they have something to say.. even when that what they say is questionable or basically a lie...
Bernice: What does that have to do with (V)'s comparison to our constitution? He is NOT protected under our constitution. He is an enemy of the U.S. and should be treated as such.
rod03801: **what has that got to do with (V)'s etc etc.***....nothing.
as you say...he is an enemy, but only because he is disclosing "stuff" that you lot don't want disclosed. they say the truth hurts,...it must do because of all the jumping up and down you are doing hahahahaha
Argomento: Re:For one, he is not a U.S. citizen, and is NOT protected under OUR constitution.
rod03801: Yes.. I know he's not a 'US' citizen. I was being sarcastic over how some Americans are happy to use the "freedom of speech" bit to say anything without any responsibility towards what they say.
Try and watch some HIGNFY on youtube.. you'll understand!!
Argomento: Re:Go to an airport and yell Bomb! and see what happens
Vikings: ..... I've always said that freedom of speech involves some responsibility, as there is for any action.
So.. Is any free speech really free?
eg Some folks saying "kill, murder, maim" yet criticising anyone else for saying the same about their "precious" (to quote Gollum) .... kinda takes away the moral high ground they claim.
Argomento: Re:Go to an airport and yell Bomb! and see what happens
(V): well there you go, "I've always said that freedom of speech involves some responsibility, ..." Publishing military secrets of another country = espionage
Artful Dodger: I agree with you regards "mentality"....procrastination is a killer and can ruin lot so things, but in this case it saved BinLadens life.....they say "he who hesitates is lost" but is that really true because BinLaden is now lost (to the USA) hahahaha
anyway...COS = guess LOL
Julian Assange was offered an opportunity and took it....made a lot of money and if he hadn't been accused of "sexual misfavours" then all this hoohah wouldnt have happened...
Artful Dodger: **i THINK HE'LL GO TO FAR ETC ETC""....why has it taken so long for everyone to start screaming about all this.... as I said below, if it wasn't for the "sexual" charges it would have just gone on as it was, and if it is so easy for people to get the US secrets and disclose them, doncha think you should be looking at your own security?
