Easy to say somewhat impractical to do..

imo.

it's worth a try.

when they sign the papers to extradite him, he could be gone forever. when he's gone, will you look back to the current time and still say we shouldn't have tried?

It's come to a point where the people must use the force of their numbers to physically achieve their goals. Let's make this happen.

someone can draw up handbills and post them in the neighborhood. it can also be disseminated in every way that the recent women's marches in the u.s. used to disseminate info. on their march.

the police are going to find out anyway. the objective is to break assange out of their control. i was at a recent women's march in a u.s. city. we easily handled the police. traffic was stopped by protestors right in front of me.

Or maybe Trump and Sweden president can just waive their desire to pursue action.

so, simply hoping that the rich and powerful - who have previously asked for him to be executed - will let him go, is the best thing to do?

Times are slightly different.

How about thinking of a way that it might work?

Have you ever heard the song "Imagine" by John Lennon?

here's a way: Trump gives him a medal of something thanking him for his push for truth. He does the same for Manning coming out in 3 months. Let him normalize.

He still has the insurance files, so he theoretically is safe.

Trump said he should be executed

yes, he ONCE said that. He talks differently now, presumably he feels differently now

Lmfao

He talks differently now, presumably he feels differently now

I doubt he feels differently about it lol

People need to bombard Trump to pardon Assange. Might not work but can't hurt right. Heck Obama pardoned manning which I thought would never happen. The tin man does have a tiny heart after all for pardoning her.

You are absolutely right on all accounts. Who knows why he pardoned Manning, but he did. And Assange needs to be next, just call off the dogs.

And maybe give him a metal. If Creepy Joe Biden got a medal of freedom, then the bar is set pretty low.

Ha I love that! Joe Biden a metal for sniffing young girls at every photo op.

Imagine all the people Living life in peace... You...

In what way? Nothing has changed. Same all establishment doing establishment crap.

From what I understand, this new President doesn't have great polling numbers.

Not that it matters when global conspirators are willing to cheat, but still, I think it's worth mentioning.

americans have gotten even russian candidates elected (yeltsin).

are you quite sure that american consultants with multimillions to spend, and decades of political savvy, would be rendered helpless by the ecuadorian electorate?

As I clarified:

Not that it matters when global conspirators are willing to cheat

And now we can't use that idea cause you just blasted it all over the reddits. Damn it

it has to be broadcast in wide release somewhere if people are going to go down there.

why not have the idea begin in /r/conspiracy? you could be one of the first people that was "in on it".

You're not going to get 200,000 people on the strength of a 15day-old account posting in r/conspiracy.
If you want to be taken seriously, use an account older than 6 months and post to r/Wikileaks too.

guess what? i don't think i should use my regular account that has my last name on it.

pro-tip:

get all participants (and AA too!) to dress like Waldo

to confuse the HELL out of camera's and law enforcement

Ha ha! And the public can ask the cop who lives on their block, to show up for work that day - and be slyly "ineffective".

after all cops, too, are "one of us".

it's the 10 secret lawyers, in a secret room in washington d.c., secretly planning to "get" assange, that always get us fighting each other. let's not have the cops and the public fight each other. let the 10 secret lawyers come out of their secret room and arrest assange. we've fallen for that nonsense for long enough.

There's an awesome scene like this in the movie The General(about Martin Cahill)

Waldo might confuse Brits. They call him Wally

even better!

'ere, whoos that bloody Waldo chap then???

Maybe he's not in the embassy at all, and this is a staged narrative to cover his previous capture.

or he has fled the embassy to escape those damn' wheatgrass smoothies from Pamela Anderson

I've thought this for some time now. I do hope it's true.

Either way we'd find out

PAGING THOMAS CROWNE

by jove, you've got it!

the idea of a flash mob heist made me lol. you're on to something though OP!

thanks! yes, flash mobs happen at my local shopping mall, and there's crowds of people suddenly dancing!

trying to break out assange would get masses of people - students, activists, anti-trump people. there would be a great feeling in the crowd! people would come down "just to watch" and they'd help out by simply being present.

who knows? you might meet your future love interest. the recent women's parades in my city were a lot of fun.

at the very least, any aggressive tactics on the part of the authorities could be filmed in high definition - to their eternal shame.

i think we should make it a true flash mob, with music/ choreography. would give the non-tactical an opportunity to be involved (more bodies the better right?), and the music will help everyone stay in time. and the juxtaposition of brutal arrests with people dancing would be solidly absurd.

also really wanna watch the movie of the love story of people who met at this lol.

yes! lotsa possibilities on this one.

and all policemen should be slyly "ineffective". there's no reason to take dangerous actions, and wade through the crowd to get to assange. any cop who does this when his fellows are going half-speed, should have his name as shit in his neighborhood forever. let that be known before the event starts.

and smuggle him to where exactly ?
Mars ?

Russia (with Snowden), Iceland, Venezuela, etc.

Even if he's caught after one week, it's one week better than being in U.S. custody.

You do realize that all he needs is an Equidorian diplomatic vehicle. That would get him to the airport to get into a diplomatic plane.

if it were that simple, he'd already be gone.

we need this big super-fun event where the public can get involved, and ordinary men and women can finally say they made history.

i'm going to try to get arrested so i can frame my arrest record.

Can you prove he's not already gone? Also if he is still there and could go somewhere, where would he go?

It's not quite that simple. IIRC, he would A) be on UK soil between the embassy and the vehicle, and between the vehicle and the plane, giving two windows in which he can be arrested, and B) the police can't enter a diplomatic vehicle, but CAN stop it and just wait until the occupants have to leave.

Not if the diplomatic car was on diplomatic soil when he got in, and there are planes that you can drive a car into.

His point was they could just block the car from going anywhere, then just wait until he had to get out due to hunger, thirst, shitty pants...

YEA GUYS GO GET HIM! .....while op sites behind his keyboard

They should dress like him too

yes with wigs so he can blend in

Dude. There's an idea. Like the end of V for Vendetta when everyone dressed up like V. We are Julian Assange. I know I want him to be alive and safe enough to continue telling the truth. Nobody else seems to be up to the task. What'a world.

Exactly! I've got goose bumps folks!

What are 200 cops gonna do?

Block both ends of the street and refuse to let anyone leave until Assange is found and arrested (something like this). Unless this is planned such that the time/date isn't known to police (which seems tricky as Assange would need to know the details, and even then, response times in central London would mean it'd have to be over fast), I'm not convinced it is a viable plan.

get him into one of those buildings, and out the other side. or in to a parking garage with a windowless van.

and remember the crowd is not there just to protest (statically), but to break assange out. so we're all pushing on those cops who are just 2 or 3 deep.

crowd control experts will be part of the group that wants assange to avoid extradition to the u.s. they will be able to point out the soft spots in crowd control strategy.

also, everyone could get a text to push at a certain point in the police lines.........

Oh please, come on! The only danger for Assange is coming from the former foreign minister Zuquilanda who polls at <2%. The one who did nothing against the US when they sank some Ecuadorian fisher ships, and is since then heavily disliked there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecuadorian_general_election,_2017

Lenín Moreno will win by large, and there's no danger for Julian.

perhaps.

remember the u.s. is a multi-trillion dollar economy with vast resources. sooner or later they are going to find the weak spot with ecuador, either by using the carrot or the stick.

and what if assange's health goes bad, or he otherwise must leave?

it's costless to try this plan if he's going to be arrested anyway. u.s. military and all other major entities have a "plan on the shelf" for these possibilities. assange should have a plan drawn up for this, so that he can almost "push a button" to start it, when it becomes necessary.

The person that said that was a candidate not the president.

Thousands show up to the Embassy wearing a Guy Fawkes masks, including Julian. As the government agents fervently unmasks people in vain, Julian is lowered down into the sewer system, making his way several blocks from the melee. A getaway van with a hole cut in its floor is waiting, parked over the manhole Julian pops out of. Two men lift him into the van. Having already cut and dyed his hair Irishman red, he quickly changes clothes...But how will he get out of the country? Where will he go?

the epic 1876 Catalpa rescue

Calm down! That person who wants to get him out of embassy is losing in polls

as i've said before, the u.s. is a multi-trillion dollar entity with vast resources.

they are going to find the soft spot on ecuador, whether they have to use the carrot or the stick.......

Remind me, what makes us so sure he's alive in the first place? Was there ever proof of life to begin with?

Its the same idea Duncan Trussel came up on JRE a couple years ago

a crowdsourcing of all ideas will be welcomed.........

I doubt you could get 8 people there to defend the accused rapist. Why was he holed up there again? Does he like not paying rent or something?

he's already dead, dude. has been for months.

Aren't there cameras everywhere in London? I'm not sure he could escape undetected.

everybody dress in dark clothes. dark blue, gray, black, dark brown.

he really only needs to get in a vehicle that's hard to see in to. or a building that has access to other buildings.

Do what they did in the movie "The Thomas Crowns affair"

I looooove this idea. Romantic.

guess what? i don't think i should use my regular account that has my last name on it.
