    You are so full of shit, it isn’t even funny:

    Snowden could have been an official whistleblower and avoided prosecution

    He literally tried to do that and was ignored.

    leaked only to US papers and avoided prosecution

    You mean like the American Branch of the Guardian and the Washington Post? Aka the Newspaper that he leaked to?

    leaked only non-classified information and avoided prosecution

    Leaking unclassified information about a classified program. How do you imagine that?

    Snowden sold classified info to enemies of the US. He made his bed.

    No, he literally did not.

    How about you stop getting your info from Fox News?

      Lmao I don’t watch Fox News. I just understand reality.

      If Grusch can leak unclassified info about classified programs, so could Snowden

        I just understand reality.

        This statement is actually more braindead than the takes on Fox.

            where is your retort for the other points of yours that were dismantled above?

            It’s very clear that you will believe whatever is most convenient for you to believe.

            Snowden is an American hero, and the war criminals he exposed faced no repurcussions

            There are exactly 0 instances where the information he released got our service members killed, despite what the media tries to suggest. You better believe our Government would be jumping at the chance to show the people how ‘whistleblowing BAD’

            If reality offends you, you may be living outside of it
