Snowden has admitted he did wrong -- violating policy as well as breaking the law.
- themartorana 10y agoBy admitting he broke the law he doesn't let the counter-argument get stuck there. He'll do anything to force the debate to the information leaked and to keep it from talking points.
- staunch 10y agoHe violated policy and broke the law, but that doesn't mean he's done wrong.
- jlgaddis 10y agoRight, the former is what I meant. Whether something is "wrong" or not depends upon one's beliefs, of course. I should have been more clear.
- DoofusOfDeath 10y agoWhen you say he admitted doing "wrong", did he admit to actually making a moral transgression, or to just breaking the law? Because if you're equating breaking the law per se with a moral transgression, I think you'll need to hunker down for a pretty tough debate.
- jlgaddis 10y agoYeah, sorry. He admitted to violating policy and the law. Whether what he did was "wrong" or not depends upon one's own beliefs.
