My, whatever will Britain do without the friendliest relations with mighty Ecuador?
Even if it wasn’t a cause for him, nobody would have known about government surveillance if it weren’t for him, and Chelsea Manning would probably still be living in hiding, as Bradley Manning, in the military, completely miserable and aware of the offenses of the government but unable to do anything about it. In this…
If he stepped out of that embassy, he would be on a plane to Guantanamo or some other “black site” in a second.
What’s stopping Ecuador from drugging him unconscious, throw him outside and then tell the police to pick up their package?
Assange only ever did what he did for the attention it brought to himself. He’s a raging egomaniac and narcissist; “the cause” was never really a cause for him, just a vehicle for worldwide fame for himself.
Option #1 for leaving Ecuadorian Embassy: shoving him out the front door.

The Julian Assange Ecuadorian Embassy would be the perfect Lego set.
I’m just waiting for the day when his smug most likely rapist arse is nabbed by the first bobby he passes leaving the Embassy.
How do you exist in 2018?
The weight you quote from that R&T article is the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. That’s the maximum allowable weight listed by the manufacturer, including curb weight, passengers, and max cargo. Curb weight is still only 5,441 lbs so you can fit a couple of fairly large Americans and a few bags of luggage before you’re…

Are we required to say, “You get a QWORTAH POHRSHUN” to whoever we serve it to?
In theory it sounds like that might be the case, but reality is different.
It’s good in theory, I just don’t see it really happening. If you’re really concerned about the environment, you’d just use “recycled” phones from the people who are upgrading theirs.
