I don't know about anyone else, but I define a hero as someone who willing puts their life in danger to help others. He IS a hero...
I guess by that definition, I'm a hero when I drive the highway 30 miles in an ice storm (last night) to pick up my brother from work. Julian's got some serious 'nads that's for sure, but I'm not really comfortable with the word "Hero" being bandied about just yet...I think it needs more time. ZW
every second there are people trolling justin beiber comments on you tube .. now if we can get them to post Free Julian Assange in the comment section.. Flood all youtube with some real Shit... well dont do it cause I said too..
i hit this page.. it will not be long til youtube asks me to sign in to make comments though.,. That gets annoying..
you come through again. It's too soon. I also don't quite know his motives, but currently I approve of the outcome.
nvm .. My comment was buried under a 100 hate beiber comments in a few minutes.. Them guys are relentless..
You compare driving on a road to putting yourself in the line of fire of the most powerful countries in the world? Well, perhaps with your skills, or lack thereof, it is a highly dangerous thing, but it in no way shape or form is it putting yourself in danger. Danger that comes from your own lack of skills is not heroism... it is just stupidity.
It takes a couple of days to get used to seeing the avatars, but you begin to read the names instead and it's fine.
Exactly. Though much of what he has done is good, you can't just brush the rest under the carpet. A doctor can't say "oh i save lives everyday, so what if I drink and drive sometimes".
If those molestation charges aren't trumped up, then I certainly wouldn't call him a hero. If they are, I'd still probably go with neither, but he started a movement that needs to be around. My feelings on it are slightly more complicated. I understand the need for some secrets to be kept, and if the power of information gathering of wikileaks weren't wielded with wisdom, I could see it doing harm as well.
true that ^ Julian is my hero along with all the ACTUAL members of anonymous.. not those little script kiddies who fucked up op payback. btw fuck the fed cock riding jester. lol.
