The key statute is clearly written to require "gross negligence" and NOT intent. Comey is creating an artificially high barrier and then saying the hurdle has not been met. In fact, it is clear-cut that Hillary should be prosecuted.
In fact, it is Comey who is totally UN-reasonable to say that “no reasonable prosecutor” would indict based upon this fact pattern and statutes. That was a totally egregious, unnecessary assertion by Comey. If he did not have the judgment and guts to publicly recommend indictment, he could have kicked the political football to AG Lynch and required her to take the heat of deciding. Instead, he tries to make it easy for Lynch to let Hillary off the hook.
Shameful episode of American history.
Hard to believe the director of the FBI was bought and paid for...
Comey is a political whore. Does he wear eye liner? I suspect he is very mentally ill. I have never seen such a pretty boy wear eye liner to let an obvious criminal run away.
Ah, but being extremely careless and reckless with national security is no crime.......
You would use the law to oppose socialism? But it is upon the law that socialism itself relies. Socialists desire to practice legal plunder, not illegal plunder. Socialists, like all other monopolists, desire to make the law their own weapon. And when once the law is on the side of socialism, how can it be used against socialism? For when plunder is abetted by the law, it does not fear your courts, your gendarmes, and your prisons. Rather, it may call upon them for help. "The Law" - Bastiat
The most EVIL government in the history of this great republic.
Restating again:
How, exactly, does one *intend* to be grossly negligent...of anything?
Today, Comey bitch slapped every single law abiding citizen.
“no controlling legal authority”, the sequel.
Ah, but being extremely careless and reckless with national security is no crime.......
So are they going to issue a TS clearance for Hillary when she takes office? Are they going to give her the codes? This can’t be real, its a bad dream, I keep trying to wake up, but I can’t get out of it.
Ironic that Trump may be the last one who can stop Hillary and Obama.
The FBI rolled over.
The GOP rolled over long ago when it comes to confronting The Clintons
and Obama.
McCain and Romney rolled over.
Trump is only one willing to confront the corrupt Klintons.
Comey Sucks, and is a traitor to the country, that doesn’t mean that NR doesn’t suck too.
and in particular everyone who has ever held a security clearance and strained to be perfectionist about protecting secret material....
I have older family members (retired) who held top secret clearances in the US Navy and who are simply appalled at this case. They lived decades of their lives under a discipline in which one document left out or mislaid could end or derail a career, and in which doing anything remotely like what Hillary has done would result in certain jail time. Yet, if you are the right kind of “elite” in our political world you can just about get away with murder.
You couldn’t swing a dead cat without hitting a FBI azz kisser here yesterday on FR, Where did you all go?
We live in Bizarro World.
I knew that if she was the only Democrat running in the primary who was going to win that nothing was going to happen to her.
Think I will be “Extremely Careless” next time I do my Taxes.
This corrupted douchebag just opened the gates of hell.
All bets are off.
