Yeah, I agree. We should forgive intelligence leaks that lead to the deaths of US intelligence operatives. ---

> [@Blue Eyed Devil](#): > > DNA determines your gender not mental illness. Not to sidetrack too much, but how do you treat that mental illness? Experts mostly agree that the best treatment is to let that person live that life, so that they can try to be as happy as possible. Forcing them to live in an uncomfortable state is basically torture to that person. - - - Updated - - - > [@RedGoober4Life](#): > > Well, usually. There are situations where genetics and testosterone levels are not in line. Theoretically, you can fix that with hormone therapy though. There are many experts that agree it’s a mental health issue. STILL, no easy answer as there isn’t a way to reverse/fix/change the mental illness. ---

Obama says the commutation was because his/her sentence was disproportionate to what other leakers have received and that he is confident that justice has been served. i guess i’m a bit more liberal on this kind of issue
