The fact is, he broke laws, and deserves to be punished, regardless of personal feelings.............. does that mean other countries will be able to extradite Bush , Cheney , Rumsfeld , Rove soon for war crimes ?

Well, why don't you go jion Osama, and wait for us to knock on YOUR door............... If you think that any of that is uncommon, you're being very naive.............. If osama was that easy to join he wouldn't be alive.

I for one don't blame the guy for being curious but he still broke the law. I'm sure all of you who are saying 'fair game' would feel the exact same way if a hacker got into your computer (unsecured or not) and stole your info, right? Of course the nations secrets are a hell of a lot more valuable.

Way to go Gary! That's the spirit. Fight for the publics right to know the truth. I know what he did was wrong by hacking and all. But he had to do it. It was the only way to get the information. You think the government is fair enough to the public to tell the truth. Think again. The government has been lying to us all for decades now about the alien and ufo issue. So, I say it's way passed high time that they start dealing their cards with fairness for all. Including the public. And Gary just might be the guy to make that happen.

He broke the law, yes, but at least he had the balls to do it. I for one, wants disclosure and IMO, he contributed to the truth even though it got him caught. Too bad he didn't save any of the pictures to prove beyond a reasonable doubt of what he is saw. How else are we to find out about the governments involvement with ufo's?? Ask them nicely or keep waiting for a truth, that more than likely, will only be revealed if there is a mass sighting? I for one, think we've waited long enough.

I agree and wish he had been able to get more truth out there. I don't like the fact that these kinds of se... [More]

That's a personal opinion from the bleeding-heart left............... Ignorance is bliss isn't it? The government was based on checks and balances which have slowly diminished over the years. The only ones who know the truth are the ones that want to keep it hidden. How can the public make informed decisions if the government feeds us lies all the time. I think what this guy did was completely justified, and cant wait til someone hacks into the CIA files and leaks the papers putting cheney in jail.
