Heroic Stance by Ron Paul on Wikileaks

[Jermyn Davidson]

I feel bad for that lowly PFC who started all of this.

I wonder how bad off are his conditions.

What he did was courageous, dangerous, and stupid.

The journalist who betrayed the PFC is simply treacherous. I do not respect him for his actions at all.

Apparently breaking the law doesn't factor in with your assesment?

As Christians we're suppose to obey the laws and support that ideal.

Even the Bible states, "There is a time and place for everything...."

If he did what he did out of concern for justice and righteousness, I won't call him a criminal.

I already called him stupid, but his actions should be lauded just as much as Assnage's, or maybe even more.

That PFC risked a whole lot to do what he did.

The costs he will probably pay for his concern for righteousness is something that neither you nor I will ever have the displeasure of knowing, hopefully.

Wow....that's some kind of stretch to use the Word for an excuse to steal.
"There's a time and place for everything"....goodness, let's all just fill in the blank.
What he did was illegal, doesn't matter if we don't like the law, doesn't matter the motives, he broke the law.
God says, don't do it. That's enough for me.

JD - do you really believe that what he did was out of a concern for righteousness. Do you really believe that Wikileaks is all about righteousness.
It's all about politics and power.
It's about tweaking the nose of the establishment, it's about going against the flow, it's about showing how cool and "righteous" you are.
In other words, it's about pardoning your sins by showing how "bad" everyone else is.
If you dig down to these guys personal lives, you will find out how righteous they are.
Do some research on your great PFC, before defending him.
