Civil disobedience is where the voter exposes government lies and cover-ups by whatever means necessary, as these governments are responsible directly to us the voters whom they represent.
A well-read executive of the Exopolitics organisation brought this precedent to my attention recently and I have passed this on to Gary's team of legal representatives, let's hope they can use it to help Gary.

No it doens't prove a thing, they are angry he accessd their systems, you really think things like UFO's and free energy (assuming those thigns existed) would be on computers cnnected to the civilian internet? Are you aware there is a ssecond internet used exclusively by military and intelligence that so far has not been accessed by any civilian (that we know of).
It's rediculous to think anything extremely top secret would be on these machines. They are simply trying to show what you get when you try and "hack" miitary computers. Although i do wish the media would stop making him sound like a computer genius, it just annoys me.

Although Garys' situation really sucks, what this really brings home to me is that our government is really going out of their way to put this guy in an American jail so they can keep him from talking.

He didnt actually use any hacker tricks to get into the system and didnt do any damage to the system either.

Maybe the fact that he found out some things about the alien/ufo situation and the governments' complicity in hiding the truth from the rest of us. It really pisses me off that our tax dollars are being used to hide facts from us. It also pisses me off that our tax dollars are being used to hide the fact that our tax dollars are being used to hide the fact that our tax dollars are being used to hide the fact AAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH........(brain explodes)..

Again i just don't see that the top secret stuff you are on about would be kept on public systems. I'm sorry but if it was all that secret then it would be in bases that half of us don't know exist, ona closed network or at worst hooked up to the seperate military internet. It wouldn't be publicly accessable.

So by what you are saying here you are suggesting that Gary didn't actually access secret files? And if so then why is he being charged with anything at all?
He gained access to the files by going through the publicly available webpage. If he gets charged with anything, it sets a rather dark precedent for all publically viewable sites on the web doesn't it?
