What do you mean by 106a? UCMJ 106a is about unauthorized ribbons, etc.:

Thanks, Obama.

It was a means to disenfranchising black voters after Reconstruction. By making felons ineligible to vote, and by increasingly prosecuting blacks for bullshit reasons, the white majority was able to keep them off the voting rolls.

And YOU need to learn historical context.

The platforms for the RNC and DNC switched in the 1960s over civil rights. The Dixie Democrats ran from the more progressive part of the DNC and into the waiting arms of the white elitist RNC when the progressives in the DNC made civil rights a part of their platform.

From what state did the senator who did that filibuster come? West Virginia.

What party represents that state in general? Capito (R) and Manchin (D).

And before you claim they're 50/50: Manchin represents the old sort of Dixie Democrats that the other southerns states used to be -- the kind that were progressive for almost anything EXCEPT when it came to giving equal rights to non-whites.

And that's where they get you!

Right. IANAL, but my understanding is that US currency is of unlimited exchange; i.e., a vendor can't refuse to accept cash.

You're comparing apples and oranges.

For most countries, if the crime is illegal in BOTH the country where you reside AND the country affected (like in this case with Assange) then most countries are extradition agreements to allow you to be punished for that crime.

So it doesn't matter that Assange never came to the US to illegally access any computer system. The two counties have treaties that allow for extraditing someone being indicted between countries.

Except his activities involved illegally (by US law) accessing computers (on US soil) to retrieve information without permission. That puts his crimes under US jurisdiction.

So the answer is a resounding no.

That's all I ask. His every tweet is something negative, an attack or an accusation that someone is mistreating/maligning/abusing him.

Has he nothing to contribute?

I'm sure your Android phone will scan images, look for ones that contain some part of a confidential email by cross-referencing it with your inbox, and delete the picture...

No, I'm not paranoid. Why do you ask?

I work from home as a programmer. I like to have stuff playing in the background, like Sirius XM. When the Howard Stern show finishes I tend to put on Netflix or Vudu in the background. :D

That's an odd way to describe Ruby programming... :D

It's so strange to see this today given that I just finished rewatching "Serenity" while working today!

Using Slack, or similar messaging apps, hardly means the people are working from home. I've worked for quite a few companies where some form of messaging app was used to let developers, BAs, etc. stay in contact without having to look up from their desks.
