Dkos accuses the Obama regime of killing hacker
(Updated) Anonymous Takes Over Government Website, Advises It Will Release Files

Two weeks ago today, a line was crossed. Two weeks ago today, Aaron Swartz was killed. Killed because he faced an impossible choice. Killed because he was forced into playing a game he could not win — a twisted and distorted perversion of justice — a game where the only winning move was not to play.

Some in the comments are worried that Bradley Manning may suffer the same fate

For serious, Trout. I can’t believe how blatantly dishonest you are being here with what you wrote. You are outright lying about what the poster on DailyKos wrote. I had thought that, despite all your many flaws, you were better than that and had more respect for the readers of this blog.

The “Two weeks ago today” paragraph was written by Anonymous, and the Dkos poster was simply reporting it, in a properly marked blockquote. Dkos is no more suggesting that Schwarz was killed by Obama than you were by quoting the same paragraph.

I thought you had at least a little integrity, but this is just outright lying.

Care to respond, Trout?
