We did but you keep posting a statute that in your opinion is germane.

No, not at all. He said in other circumstances he would apply the following law:
violating 18 U.S.C. 793(f), which states:
Whoever, being entrusted with or having lawful possession or control of any document, writing, code book, signal book, sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, note, or information, relating to the national defense, (1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from its proper place of custody or delivered to anyone in violation of his trust, or to be lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed . . . Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both.
(emphasis added)
In criminal law, unless strict liability applies, a statute can require four distinct mental states (“mens rea”) to commit a crime: (i) purpose, (ii) knowledge, (iii) recklessness, and (iv) criminal/gross negligence.

Again, take my opinion out of this and the law with it if you like.

He also went on to describe the differences between other cases and this case when testifying under oath in front of the House subcommittee.

I have no standing in if the law is germane or not.

Are the differences in other cases germane?

Right. But your opinion like mine is not important.
Andy Dukes

That is what his testimony sounded like to me.

It is only important to me and how I view the participants.

Was Hillary entrusted with Top Secret information?
Andy Dukes
PREMIER
Yes as was her staff.

How do you view Hillary in regard to her handling of Top Secret information?
Bruddah IZ
DA
Did she violate the law in her handling of that top secret material?

Did she remove top secret and secret documents from its proper place of storage?
I thought about this at work today, and Ive come to the conclusion that this post is racist.
I dont normally accuse people of racism because its sooooooooooooo overplayed, but to equate a satirical cartoon using Hillary's own words to show her hypocrisy in pulling the race card, to putting on blackface and showing up at a soccer game your kid is playing in, is really bad taste at best, and flat out racist on the bottom end.

I am sure the vast majority of the information she has been shown over the years was never in danger. I think the email server at her home was arrogant and short sided. I can understand what she was trying to do but she should never have been allowed by POTUS to set that server up. But that does not relieve her of the responsibility. When listening to Comey and his testimony it was clear they found what they considered Top Secret information. They had to look at over 100,000 emails to find some. They also found that in at least one instance HRC asked her staff to scrub a document before sending it to here to stop it from being classified. I bet that was one of the failures on her and her staffs part but it did show an attempt to comply with the law. I think the State Department system of email needs to be completely overhauled to match what the FBI is doing. That was a big part of the issue as staff tried to use regular email to conduct business that really did not fit into that mold. The FBI has different levels of email security nd it seems the State Department uses email for all non classified and then an archaic system of live letters and microwave bursts for the classified system. part of the issue is the complexity of the State Department. They have stations all over the world and the need to respond in multiple places all at once.
How that reflects on how she would handle secrets as POTUS is interesting. First, she won't have an unclassified email that she actually would respond to. Frankly, I doubt she would use email at all except to her close staff members. Those I am sure are on a higher classified system if they are actually in use. I don't see this as a problem that would reoccur if she became POTUS.

We actually don't know if it was her or her staff that sent the emails to her server. Comey uses the description of her and her staff in almost every phrase in his statement.

Not enough to charge her with a crime per the FBI and it's Director.
Its quid pro quo.
Nobody has a corner on racial insensitivity.
In my opinion, we all grow a set of balls and laugh about it.
