Anonymous hacks US Sentencing Commission, distributes files

Anonymous hacks US Sentencing Commission, distributes files. “The statement suggested retaliation for [Aaron] Swartz’s tragic suicide, which many – including the family – believe was a result of overzealous prosecution by the Department of Justice and what the family deemed a ‘bullying’ use of outdated computer crime laws.” Gubbermint bullies in the Obama administration? No way, surely the media woulda told us about it…

  • Personally, I think his "tragic suicide" was actually a heinous murder made to look like a "tragic suicide".

    • I agree, ala Breitbart "heart attack" because anyone capable of casting too much light into the shadows this administration maintains is a threat to them.

    • I'd actually doubt that considering he was arrested for distributing information already available to the public. The only difference is he was distributing it for free while the government was putting it out for a fee.

      So ask yourself: Is if more likely that Obama would stage the murder of an activist who released classified documents (hasn't happened) or public ones available for a fee?

      • Look just how hard the Clinton administration went out of their way to make it look like Vince Foster shot himself with a pistol that happened to have a nine inch barrel. Shot himself, with a slight downward angle, by the way, in his right temple; he being a lefty and all, and then managed to toss the pistol off in the opposite direction once he'd supposedly killed himself... Yeah, it's making my head hurt just trying to get my mind around it!

        • And he decided to do all those peculiar things in one of the few spots on this planet where a gravitational anomaly causes blood to run up rather than down. Altogether, it adds up to quite a large crock of stinking coincidences, or something. How about Danny Furgeson's estranged wife committing suicide with a shotgun blast directly to the back of her head while sitting on the couch? The Clinton dynasty has a record of dead people over a hundred.

  • Would love to see the real E-Mails from Holder's Fast and Furious. Then it would be time to impeach.

  • The enemy of my enemy is NOT my friend. Just because Anonymous is against one of Obama's policies doesn't mean they're not a collection of anarchists with the odd socialist thrown in.

  • If they really want to go somewhere, they need to get into the state department, DOJ and white house computers....I bet the proverbial poo would fling itself against the fan at that point.
