No, sex offenders are fair game in jail. because and rightfully so some men don't like offences of any sort committed against women and children. once again i think assange is innocent.

Yeah I'll be a bit mad too thoughtsfull...

he's still in custody in case of an appeal being submitted...

Julian Assange will remain in custody as prosecutors have two hours to lodge an appeal against bail.

Let's hope the appeal fails...

We just have to keep to the streets and make our opposition to such attempts heard.
Most all Americans rely on the net, and they like it just the way it is. It would be a true # storm.

OK. I've just always heard you were only really marked for being a snitch or committing a crime against a child (think about how many people would have it tough if it was just sex crimes like 50 percent of the population)

Either way that's beside the point, I'm with you, he's innocent.

So.. if the file this appeal will he be held up just by it merely being filed, or does it have to be sufficient and properly filed? Are there requirements?

Cool... Stand up to the bastards and they can't keep holding this crap over your head. Soon they'll be clawing at something else from his past to get him arraigned in the United States. Hey, maybe they'll produce an American birth certificate that they found next to Obama's Kenya birth certificate so they can call it treason.

Haha.. The original birthers are likely the same people screaming for his head so maybe.
Assange's certificate reveals he is an American and Ann Ardin's reveals her true age, 9.

Hooray! The world is once safe again.
Wait... So now what?
Does Assange mass an empire and release more documents...
How long will this go on for?

Michael Moore twittert it himself.

London court has accepted bail money from me & others & has just released WikiLeaks' Assange on bail! Cheering in courtroom.

Others said, he had offered 20.000 $ earlier this day.

I just punched the air.
This is good news. I hope we hear more good news in the days to come.

Thank you sir, I knew he was trying to, but didn't know if it went through and he was actually (partly) responsible for paying it. Now he has some good karma to make up for "Lucky Numbers."

If my memory serves correct, wasn't he denied bail orignally because he failed to provide a physical address to the court, instead only reporting a PO box somewhere in London. I wonder if this info was correct, and if it was what has changed since then.

Did he cave in and provide a physical location?

Last week Assange gave a P.O. address in Australia, but this was not accepted. I guess, he gave the address of some family member than.

This time a Londoner gave his address - the house, where he has to stay. Additionally he wears an electronic tag.

...if the appeal does not change things again.

He has to pay 200k to be free'd?

Since when did that happen in britain? His lawyer said they will need cash because the ycant pay through visa or master card

Oh and he is apperntly in victorian conditions, IMO probably solitary.

SWEDEN NOT TO APEAL HIS BAIL

reply to post by GogoVicMorrowThe longer I watch this situation unfold, the more I'm getting all TFH about it. Everyone knows the charges are ridiculous. Everyone knows WikiLeaks has something major, or they'd be dead.

Is it in the insurance file? I doubt it. 256bit encryption may be beyond most of us, but over 10yrs ago, 156bit was considered safe b/c the time to crack it would render the info useless. Yet, a network of ordinary PCs was used to crack it in a few days utilising something similar to Seti@Home to link them.

I think this whole thing was a stunt to connect Assange's name to "rape" in the media, so that when they have to let him go, his name can forever be preceded by "alleged rapist" without that being libelous. People just dont seem to understand that I could be a child torturing serial killer & that would not alter the fact that if I said such behaviour is wrong, my statement would be correct. However, a child torturing serial killing government can operate from the commonly accepted but logically fallacious position of "argument from authority" & simultaneously contradict me & enforce laws on others that agree with me, in the knowledge that most people will accept their lies & illogicality simply b/c to do otherwise would create a need for action, but the fear of the consequences of such action prevents it & the shame of cowardice prevents examination of anything that would lead to a need for action in the 1st place.

When you think about it, the human condition really is heart-wrenchingly pathetic. Still, there are moments where somebody gets their big shiny balls of steel on & causes change. Hey Julian, if you're reading this, I hope you had a monster coming out party, without condoms!

Okay! Now he really is out of jail.

Swedish prosecutors won't appeal!

And again a big BUT: The court wants the bail in cash. Could last days, said lawyer.
