I agree with the Manning pardon, I don't think Snowden deserves a pardon. Manning's motives and understanding of what she was doing is worlds different than Snowden's.
Snowden sought a position to access more information for his leaks and he leaked information on valid espionage programs along side the unconstitutional ones.
Let him live out his days in Russia, he paid for it with intelligence.
- gkoberger 10y agoTo play devil's advocate: Snowden took documents for a specific reason (to reveal US surveillance), and turned it over to legitimate journalists to decide what to release. Manning grabbed anything she could get her hands on, and uploaded it all to the world.
- vvpan 10y agoSo you don't think Snowden has done great enough good for US citizens for anybody to consider a pardon for him?
- iaw 10y agoSnowden should be pardoned for his work revealing domestic wiretapping program, the other programs he leaked he should do his time for.
