Does this case cry out for public outrage?

I don't think so. Very few cases call for "outrage", which is rarely constructive anyway. Not unlike all of your poll options.

Take a close look. This guy is being extradited for not using a condom and slippin' the weinie to the little darlin' he was sleeping with and boinkin' before she was totally awake. This is after he had been boinkin' her the same evening, in the same bed. This is ridiculous! The only reason the controlled USA media doesn't make a joke of this is because they know the USA wants Assange in a USA court and this gets him in Sweden and he can be extradited. Bogus!

Unconsentual sex, regardless of what happened last night between them, is still unconsentual and is considered rape.

I disagree. I think Assange was asleep with a hard on and accidently slipped it into the most comfortable spot. I think he was seduced by the proximity and circumstance. He was invited for sex and I think he was just trying to do a good job. Leave the little darlin' smilin'.
 
The man is worth alot he should just go to court, he can afford any legal help that he needs or his sheep followers could donate more money to his defense.

Assange was invited for sex and he delivered. More than once apparently. What's the problem here? RAPE???? Not likely. A setup by the Swedes to get Assange extradited to the USA. That is all that is happening here.

That is rape!

Everyone must consent to every bit of the sexual encounter for it to be consensual. The moment someone says no or is unconscious, whether sleeping or passed out, any sexual activity past that is rape. It doesn't matter if it is a person's spouse. Even if the person is inside the other and both were both able and willing when it started, if one says "get out of me!" or "get off of me!" or "I'm done, no more" and the other does things to try to force the person wanting out to continue it is rape or at least attempted rape (depending on the other's ability to actually remove themself from the situation).
 
It's outrageous that he's in a position where the CIA/FBI/etc... have not been able to drop him into a hole so deep he'll never even feel it when he gets to the bottom.
 
I think the man did no wrong. Nothing at all wrong with anything he has done. I feel that the other issues are probably smear campaigns to discredit the man more then anything.

I find nothing wrong with uncovering some horrific truths of our governments atrocities. I think the American people have the right to know when our government is going to far, and we shouldn't punish those who bring secrecy to light.

Those of you who want to try him under treason laws fail to understand treason. He is an Australian citizen, so that would disqualify him from that charge. Now espionage may be another issue, but we simply don't know all the facts. We're only being told what government officials have been telling us about Assange.

Secrecy in government is something that we should never condone in the United States. You simply cannot have secrecy in a free and open society. We shouldn't hate Assange for bringing some of that to light, but our government for having them in the first place.

Who's talking about TRYING him? I'm talking about taking him somewhere and making him WISH he was dead for about three weeks before granting that wish. Then feeding the remains to the Great White's off the coast of his homeland.

If you don't want to put a suspected criminal on trial then you favor things that go against what our country is supposed to be about.

Let's just say that I have a different view of "What this country is supposed to be about" than you do, and leave it at that.
 
Doesn't the USA consider him an enemy combatant for helping the terrorists by releasing sensitive information and wouldn't that make him a prime candidate for Gitmo or one of the secret prisons in another country?

Yes. He revealed that the USA was covering up a massacre of civilians by the US military, among other things. I am against gov't secrecy, since it is usually about cover ups and not technical, strategic, weaponry, or intelligence related secrets. It is my personal opinion that 99% of whistleblowers are heroes, and consistently persecuted by our gov't police agencies. We are attacking the wrong enemy repeatedly.

Too far for what?

All he did was complicate international issues and humiliate foreign-officials (not just our own) - he didn't uncover **** that 'we needed to know about' - he was just a ****ing douche who wanted to cause a problem. There was no focused whistle-blowing. There was no deep undercover investigation to reveal a deeper truth about some well kept lie or something.

Don't fool yourself - and then try to fool others - he did nothing of the sort.

And your view on secrecy not being allowed - geesh - it's not *against us* that we do such things - it's *for our betterment* - if we didn't try to keep things secret how do you think WWII would have really ended? :roll: Not well for us, that's for sure.

He complicated issues by showing that they were lying. Thank you.

Don't fool yourself. He showed that they were liars. Publically. Thank you Assange.

Keeping lies a secret is a good thing since when? If the citizens knew that the gov't knew three days before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, what would the reaction have been? Secrets just protect some deadbeats ass, 99.9% of the time. That's reality.
