It is the opinion of we who sign below. That it would be just to set free, Bradley Manning. The good he as done has not only trumped the bad, but his courageous actions make him a hero. With out him, chances are high, that we would still be fighting two wars, and that 4 nations in the middle east would still be dictatorships. It is clear that not only did he do what he did for the betterment of humanity, but it worked.
One of the oldest laws, "Defense of necessity". Makes him is actions legal. Exposing the military was not only necessary for the safety of America, ending the cycle of violence that our reckless military employs. But it is also necessary for any Democracy to have people with a working knowledge of the actions taken on behalf of the people.
Manning Hero of America.
