Free Mailman Steve!

It's like Free Mumia for non-crazy people! For those of you who don't know the story, Steve Padgett was arrested for his bold, principled, heroic refusal to deliver junk mail.

He recently received his sentence: probation and a $3,000 fine. He was forced to decide between that punishment and another offered by the judge, which was to eat all the junk mail he refused to deliver. Unsurprisingly, he opted for the fine.

Mailman Steve, I salute you. If we had more people like you...then...well, the world wouldn't be that different at all, I guess. So...there ya go.
