In Comey's statement, he says the following:
For example, seven e-mail chains concern matters that were classified at the Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending e-mails about those matters and receiving e-mails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clintons position, or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also found information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S. Intelligence Community at the time it was discussed on e-mail (that is, excluding the later up-classified e-mails).
Any reasonable person would know better, meaning Hillary is unreasonable. Not too far a stretch to unqualified.
Actually, she’s a crook and a liar.
The fact that obama appears with her signals that the US government has never - in its entire history - been so corrupt.
And if she becomes the next president, look out. The constitution will mean even less than it does now, and mass arrests won’t be off the table.
After today, fewer people will be caring about anything Comey has yet to say.
Look out is right.
She’ll go after everyone and anyone who was against her. There will be hell to pay.
The present state of affairs goes nowhere. Comey laid out some dozens of instances of black letter violations of 18 USC, under which “intent” is not relevant nor is it even mentioned in the statute.
The “content” of top secret and above top secret info she (mis)handled is irrelevant, the intent of the misplacer is irrelevant. The info was brought to an unsecure location, eg; her server. That and that alone is the violation. If that does not cross the line, there is no line. She also lied to Federal investigators, also a felony. There’s nothing to discuss here. She achieved every single element of the violation and it’s not being reco’ed for an indictment. Those are the only applicable facts, like them or not.
Comey just obliterated any and all credibility of the FBI .
She would never be eligible for a government job that requires a security clearance after what she did, but yet she wants to be your president. Where’s the logic in that?
You are correct sir. Mass arrests won’t be off the table.
Yeah, let's get those folks back - yikes

Yes it was, plus Ruby Ridge (under Bush senior) plus the guy in Oregon, the real "hands up, don't shoot" guy. Don't think it can't happen again.
Agree with your post.
According to Giuliani, she wouldn’t be able to get a security clearance now, except that she’s a Clinton and running as the Democrat in the upcoming election. How far our once great country has fallen.
“After today, fewer people will be caring about anything Comey has yet to say.”
Can’t deny that.
As credible as Chief Justice Roberts.
Exactly! He let the queen off the hook and to her adoring fans that’s all that matters.
Yes he did. I just wonder how many FBI agents are secretly disgusted with it? Probably more than a few, but not one will resign over it. They don't want to jeopardize their pensions.
She can go to hell. Actions have consequences.
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.
Yes, and “extremely careless” with top secret national security material also implies unqualified, as in Hillary is clearly unqualified to hold any sensitive position in US govt ever again.
SOMEBODY stripped those emails of their classified markings and transcribed them into Clinton’s private email system. That seems like an deliberate act to circumvent the system. The FBI has the threads. They know who did it. Does The FBI intend to give them a free pass as well?
