Yup. Was talking about that with my best friend last night. I was maybe willing to consider cutting Assange a tiny bit of slack because the powers that be only went after him when he threatened them (ie, the banks). He wasn’t.

I was wrong, and he was right. This proves it.

PS By “slack,” I meant life in jail, not death penalty...
