quote:It's precisely the fact that 1 guy out of all the other people working there WHO KNEW THEIR BOSSES LIED and that our own government was illegally spying on us stood up and did something is why he should be pardoned. He had a great life and a great job. He gave it up to expose our own government violating the constitution. Does that not mean anything? I take it that the people who say no are cool with the idea of our government spying on us and lying under oath and violating the constitution. I swear I've seen outrage on this site about lying under oath and violating constitutional rights.....
And I totally get that, but for 1 individual to unilaterally decide that the public needs to know classified information is a bad precedent to set. While I think Snowden got it right. I'm not confident that the next person will not it right as well.
