i couldn't give a shit if you do that. just don't point your finger at me for realizing the damage done while you're genuflecting a cowardly dumbass.

Interesting poll results from Huffington:
NSA Leaks Poll Finds Americans Divided Over Edward Snowden's Actions
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/0...n_3430506.html
Quote:
According to the new poll, 38 percent of Americans think that Snowden releasing top-secret information about government surveillance programs to the media was the right thing to do, while 35 percent said it was the wrong thing. Twenty-eight percent said they weren't sure.

Quote:
An Ipsos/Reuters poll released Wednesday had similar findings. In that survey, 31 percent of respondents said that they believed Snowden is a "patriot," 23 percent said he is a "traitor," and 46 percent said they weren't sure. In that survey, 35 percent of respondents said Snowden should not be prosecuted, 25 percent said he should be, and 40 percent said they did not know.

And this part I found most interesting:
Quote:
But the respondents to the HuffPost/YouGov poll who said they were paying the most attention to the leak story were more likely to say they thought Snowden had done the right thing. Among those who said they had "heard a lot" about the story, 50 percent said that they thought Snowden had done the right thing, and 34 percent said he had done the wrong thing. Those who said they had "heard a little" were more critical, with 41 percent saying that Snowden had done the wrong thing and 33 percent saying he had done the right thing.
