Wilson Pleads Guilty

I just saw the Chris Wilson, the webmaster in Florida, plead guilty to 5 misdemeanor charges.

I don't like this. I know how tempting it is to take a plea, but this is just censorship. I understand it isnt my freedom on the line right now, but it is the freedom of every one of us that is slowly being chipped away when prosecutors throw a whole bunch of charges at someone knowing full well they will plead it out--that is common practice and I did it myself when I was a DA but I never used the power of my office to silence someone like they are doing to Wilson.

Rob Black said at Internext that he would not take a plea offer. I admire that kind of courage! I also admire anybody that goes through the wringer and comes out in one piece--Wilson did put up a good fight but when the government wants a piece of you, they will get you.

Fuckers.
