        Assange is not that guy the media made him look like. He was pictured like this by the media so people wouldn’t be so upset once they catch him.

      Julian Assange is not a US citizen and the crimes he is accused of did not happen on US soil. The US should not be the world police. Why are we trying to prosecute him?

          I just wanted to give a little recap of the Julian Assange controversy. The US is trying to prosecute him for breaking US law while outside the US and he is not a US citizen. In case people don’t know the story, that’s the most important part.

        Agreed. If you’re not a citizen of a country and are not living in that country, why should you follow that countries laws and be obligated to keep that countrie’s secrets? That would be like prosecuting the journalists who published the Snowden documents in the UK. They never had anything to do with your laws, USA, so kindly fuck off, will ya?

    The state is holding an AK. If the state is the US government, that adds some spice.
