I am really conflicted with Assange. On a very base, emotional level, I want him to be captured and hanged (or executed in some other way), but I also think doing so would be detrimental for U.S. interests and actually quite difficult to do.
I'd rather just see Assange spend the rest of his miserable life in a federal penitentiary. That will be enough for most people.
I'm still making up my mind about Bradley Manning, though...
Well, we probably don't have the case to actually hang him. Heck, even putting him in jail is a little of a stretch (though we could probably do it).
I've yet to as well. Manning was obviously a mere patzy whose fairly crappy life was taken advantage of. At the same time, what he did was completely unacceptable. And I think it's in cases like this why lady justice is blind.
