Snowden: Patriot or Traitor?

[Regulator]

The liberal media will tell u what Obama wants you to hear. That being said I don't think we will ever know the full truth to any story that includes govt agencies.

 

[Lizard King]

I don't think Obama wants to hear that he authorized the tapping of phones on a great number of US citizens announced to the public.

I am all for trying to keep the government honest, but running to China and Russia with top secret material does not look like a hero move to me. But like Lizard said, we clearly do not have the whole story either.

Okay you just blew the whistle on the united States government. They are saying you are guilty of treason and committed an act of terrorism.

Now the government has given itself the power to kill you with a drone strike for these actions out hold you without due process indefinitely.

Where exactly would you go?

He stood up for what he felt was right. The world is full of people that talk big, few have the balls to actually do the right thing.

Prism is there under a guise to protect you. Do you really think the terrorist communicate in open unencrypted communication? Only wannabe idiots do that. It's not stopping any real threat. It's real intent is to spy on every citizen if need be. I find it ironic that Obama are going after some one so hard for exposing what we are doing wrong to own own citizens. This is the president that trying to bring down reporters for reporting on things they don't agree with.

 

[TexSon]

First off, let's keep it civil please.

The whole story doesn't add up to me so I doubt we are being told more than 25% of the truth to start off with.

and I agree with this. you are never going to know the whole story. bottom line.

 

[TexSon]

but of all the agencies to blow the whistle on - the f'ing NSA?

the guy is fairly young and he has no kind of future. of all the entities in the world to make enemies with....sheez.

Patriot or Traitor?

It is honestly too early to tell. We don't have any idea what kind of information he still has and may still share.

Running to Hong Kong and then to Russia doesn't help his Patriot status in my mind.

What act of terrorism has he been accused of? I must have missed something.

Its more Democratic media outlets that I've seen throw that label out there.

But technically with the modern definition of terrorism he has committed low level terrorism. Protesting government action.
