33. Oh, please--the government has them dead to rights. They know where the hacks are coming from.

They aren't indicting them on a whim.

But since you're being very overbearingly literal and accusatory, today, let me speak in excruciating longhand, that anyone who wasn't looking for a pissing contest would have figured out from the context of the commentary:

After the government decisively proves that they were sitting behind their computers engaging in the hacking, because they had an inside track on their activities, to include a witness with the internet name SABU who turned states' evidence and will testify against them, let them make their case IN REBUTTAL TO THE STATE and contest the findings of the prosecution.

Or not. They can sit there and likely be found guilty, or, if they're very clever, they'll cut some sort of deal.

What exhausting hyperbole you engage in, for no real purpose, to defend a couple of little punks who would steal your credit card details as soon as look at you, and not give a flying fuck if you're "liberal" or otherwise. Salem witch trials? Democracy dying because teen assholes steal credit card numbers and sell them so they can buy electronic toys?

Please--these are just little fucker-criminals who thought hacking would be fun.

Let them find out how much fun it is.
