Oh please. The fact that I don’t agree with you doesn’t mean I’m ignorant, it just means I don’t agree with you.

5/ He is being treated so harshly for one reason only: to freeze disclosure and to freeze dissent. Injustice to Assange is an injustice to all of us. The crime here is not what he did; the crimes here are what he exposed. #FreeAssange

3/ The government wants to freeze serious journalism when it comes to military secrecy because serious journalists go after the truth. Saying “he’s not a journalist” is particularly ridiculous given how many journalists in this country are more like fiction writers & they know it

2/ Over 15,000 more Iraqi civilian deaths than has been reported. Blackwater mercenaries indiscriminately shooting into crowds. 700 civilians shot for getting too close to checkpoints, some of them men trying to get pregnant women to the hospital. Abuse. Rape.Torture. WAR CRIMES

1/ On Julian Assange’s 50th birthday, it’s important to remember his case is not just about Julian Assange. It’s not even just about press freedom. It’s about horrible things being done by the US military that they did not want us to know about.

Yes.
If kids are required to go to school they should get a basic lunch for free and not have to jump through hoops or have the stigma of being called poor.
Hope other states follow suit. We can afford it when we pay more per-inmate than per-student

I’m trying to figure out how Britney Spears only has a court-appointed lawyer. All the people making millions off her and no one hires her someone in Century City? The days of basically imprisoning a woman because she’s “crazy” are supposed over. #FreeBritney

Sometimes a person has to look in the mirror and realize they need to do more than tweak a little something here or tweak a little something there; they have to realize their entire life is out of balance and needs fundamental repair. Ditto a country.

I think people do care, but they are systematically misinformed and politically betrayed. I think people are just exhausted and depressed by the whole thing at this point.
