It's just unbelievable that someone who does the legitimate thing (whistleblowing to spying in a country whose constitution says spying is wrong) is arrested while government continues to get away with it's crimes, only to have the clowns that run my country only happy to help. Close the NSA! Leave Afghanistan! Impeach Obama and the rest! And so on. America needs a president (and a senate and congress) who respects it's constitution and it's people along with the sovereignty of all other countries. Yes, i believe manning was right in what he did and i hope Snowden stays in Russia. They are not the criminals here. |
Wrong government leaker.
Snowden released a bunch of interesting and important information relating very serious crimes and abuses of liberty.
Manning leaked some minorly embarrising diplomatic cables that didn't really have anything important in them or anything that really qualfied as an abuse of power.
There is a big difference between Snowden and Manning... Snowden deserves a pardon and a medal. Manning does deserve jail time. Not 35 years though, that shit is ridiculious. Time served should be fine.
