There is a division of opinion as to whether Julian Assange and Army Pfc. Bradley Manning are demons or are angels.
Interestingly, once again, many of those calling for them to be publicly shot, hung, or both, claim to be against those types of Big Brother government acts.
For example, one of the military branches (that claims to fight for "American values") ... (free speech and a free press???) censored its computer system by blocking anyone who has published WiggyLeeks information, such as the New York Times.
Meanwhile, others openly support the efforts of those who expose government corruption via whistle blowing activities.

I'm ashamed, TRULY ashamed!, to be an American on this day.
