"In essence, in order to give Mrs. Clinton a pass, the FBI rewrote the statute, inserting an intent element that Congress did not require. The added intent element, moreover, makes no sense: The point of having a statute that criminalizes gross negligence is to underscore that government officials have a special obligation to safeguard national defense secrets; when they fail to carry out that obligation due to gross negligence, they are guilty of serious wrongdoing. The lack of intent to harm our country is irrelevant. People never intend the bad things that happen due to gross negligence."

It's pretty silly that intent was ever considered. She went through a lot of training on handling classified information, she should be held accountable for it. It does not matter in any way, shape, or form whether she meant harm or not.

It's also pretty silly that Clinton supporters are celebrating this as if it looks good that their corrupt candidate is "extremely careless". Because that's clearly the type of person who belongs in the White House.

Also consider the FACT that she lied to her supporters and to voters this entire election cycle regarding this whole situation. How do you honestly expect voters to trust someone who isn't even honest to the people who are blindly following her?
