(7,886 posts)Where did Zimmerman come from? a clear cut case of cold blooded murder does not at all come close to the whole Anon thing. (btw, Zimmerman will face a lower sentence than Schartz was facing, which is the whole point right now) Guess what, you ever read the TOS in any piece of software? violating it could land you in jail for a looong time, and they are real easy to violate, you probably don't even realize you have, so you yourself are probably a felon just waiting to be popped.
It's like Monsanto having a patent on types of corn, but the way nature works, they just have to plant some nearby your corn field, and in a season or two you are growing their corn and are now a criminal and have to face the music.
See what I did there? made a weird, unrelated analogy, except instead of talking about Batman and Nader, I showed another real world example of normal people getting their lives ruined for small things, a punishment that way outstrips the crime.
You are saying that any criminal is as bad as a murderer, that the kid who steals bubblegum should face a jail sentence same as a murderer.
Anon hasn't killed anyone, they haven't hurt anyone. They have helped more people than will ever know, and they don't care about it. They are the dark knight you keep going on about, they fight the fights, they get dirty so we can stay clean, they do horrable things so others can do good things.
