This thread really shocks me. I'd never have thought so many were completely fine with being under NSA monitoring. Information is power, and I can think of a lot of ways the NSA's database of information could be used that would not benefit a free society.
Ben Franklin said it best:
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
If he were brought home I'd like to see him heralded as a hero for exposing the US government illegally obtaining, storing, and analyzing private conversation's of American Citizens.
I think he also deserves to be penalized for exposing international spying techniques. I'd probably be a long way from the bullet camp though.
