Edward Snowden: Hero or traitor? You Decide-

Sunday, June 23, 2013

Edward Snowden: Hero or traitor? Let's sort out some terms right off the bat so we know what is bullshit and what is not.

Traitor - a person who commits treason by betraying his or her country.

Treason - The crime of betraying one's country, esp. by attempting to kill the sovereign or overthrow the government.

So Snowden is neither a traitor nor has he committed treason. People throwing around such terms either have no access to a dictionary or they have some agenda that they are trying to sell you.

I said when this story broke that I did not have enough information to know if he was a good guy or a bad guy. I am still on the fence and I, like you, am watching this develop.

Here is something to mull over:

If a passerby notices your home is on fire at 3 a.m. and breaks down your front door to enter and wake you up should he then be charged with burglary or vandalism for his efforts to alert you to the danger?

This issue really is NOT about Snowden, it is about our government being out of control and snooping into all of our lives and greatly overstepping their authority.

Of the 50 acts of terrorism that have supposedly been stopped by government surveillance only sketchy details on one (perhaps 2) have been provided. Where is the information on the other 48? (if there is actually another 48)

I have made no decision on Snowden, except that he is no traitor.
