Snowden broke some laws, that's a given [View all]

Today we heard our revered Rep. Conyers declare that the NSA broke not just some laws, but actually acted unconstitutionally.

So that's why Snowden felt he had to become a whistleblower. He saw laws being broken and the constitution being subverted.

I now look forward to seeing all those here who attacked Snowden, turn their attention to the lawbreakers in the NSA with even half their vehemence they displayed going after the confirmed whistleblower Snowden.

Well, how about it? How about the lawbreakers in the NSA? Are you people gonna let them slide?
