Jill Stein picks awful day to defend Wikileaks.

Saw Jill defending Wikileaks, then this came across Twitter feed later on:

Wikileaks outed gay people in Saudi Arabia in ‘illegal’ data dump


Wikileaks ‘crusade’ to expose government secrets has put hundreds of ordinary people at risk – including rape victims and the mentally ill.

In one shocking case, the site published the name of a gay man in Saudi Arabia, where homosexuality is punishable by death.

The site has been blamed for publishing medical files belonging to ordinary people – and naming teenage rape victims.

Private details of dozens of people were revealed in a recent leak of Saudi diplomatic cables – including 124 medical files, some describing patients with psychiatric conditions.

One man who said Wikileaks had revealed the details of his paternity suit said, ‘They published everything: my phone, address, name, details

... has been put on Interpol's most wanted list for sex crimes against women.

"Interpol, at the request of a Swedish court looking into alleged sex crimes from earlier this year, has put WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on its most-wanted listed.

The Stockholm Criminal Court two weeks ago issued an international arrest warrant for Assange on probable cause, saying he is suspected of rape, sexual molestation and illegal use of force in August incidents."

When he gets out of Swedish jail, we should extradite his butt and try him for releasing classified information.

People voting for her justify their vote for this totally unqualified candidate by saying it's okay because she has no chance to win.

Go figure....
