A pardon is a discretionary act of a president or governer, not a mandatory event every time a bunch of conspiracy nuts on the internet demand it. Assange knew what he was getting into when he broke the law. He should have used a VPN lol

    Assange is under charges of espionage, a serious crime. It doesn't matter if he did the right thing or not at this stage, he's a criminal and I have no doubt they will crucify him. He won't be able to keep a cat in the federal prison like he did in the embassy. As for Bradley Manning, well 'it' was pardoned by obama so perhaps the new Stooge-in-chief will grant a similar pardon to Julie? Especially if he has the sex change operation.

      No shit! Did you just discover that recently? I knew your government was tyrannical and your system corrupt years ago after the 911 coverup. So after all this time I just take it for granted whatever happens over there. When your whole society is corrupt from top to bottom so you have to expect this sort of thing. Assange was an aussie like me, and not uneducated, but he put his head in the lions mouth, what did he think would happen? besides if the 911 truth movement nor the stink over the Iran contra business could wake americans out of their slumber into action then nothing will. So why rail against injustices when it's obvious you're shouting into the wind? The same people protesting 911 will be protesting this and all that effort wasted.

      Look at that aussie that went on a shooting trip in a new zealand mosque. He honestly thought the world would hail him a hero for defending the rights of the decent white imperialists. He changed nothing but his own destiny and now he has to spend the rest of his life in a six by eight cell with no sex, no visitors, crappy food, and NO INTERNET ACCESS.

      Yeah yeah he's a hero, my point is he got busted, that was stupid. And now he has to pay the price is all. I don't make the laws, I don't enforce them, I just keep out of their way.

      We're in a country shaped by breaking the law. I don't see how Trump's friends he has pardoned are so much more deserving to be forgiven for their crimes.

      Like you said, you are in a country shaped by breaking the law, and they are the experts at it. Manning probably got the pardon because 'it' was trans-gender, can't have a trans person suffering, they have suffered enough. Perhaps Obama wanted to fuck 'it' Who knows? Who knows what goes on over there. Empires in collapse are very fluid, very messy places you want to be far away from.
