    For five long years, governments have denied that global mass surveillance violates of your rights. And for five long years, we have chased them through the doors of every court. Today, we won. Don't thank me: thank all of those who never stopped fighting.https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/sep/13/gchq-data-collection-violated-human-rights-strasbourg-court-rules …

        If our government had any sort of moral compass, you would have been pardoned a long time ago.

        If our government had a moral compass, he would have never had to blow the whistle in the first place. :P

        What if he is a CIA asset that was a mole inside the NSA to blow the cover on operations that were in fact setup to help take down the deep state and he was not only allowed to flee the US, but was aided in his escape by the CIA, and all of the "efforts" to arrest him were fake.

        What if I told you that @realDonaldTrump doesn't give a rat's ass about the fourth amendment and that everything you said here sounds like nonsense?

        Not really sure what Trump has to do with with the statement I made? Just trying to engage in a thought exercise. I thought obama was in office when Snowden blew the whistle. What's interesting is that of anyone has followed politics since 9/11, they would already know that..

        We’re all in this together! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hciiZbJph1c … Also, until this ruling is recognized by the US (which won’t happen if Kavanaugh gets confirmed) we still have a ton of work to do....

        How will future children recognize when governance is cheating ? They won’t know, most teens have no idea how the USA is supposed to operate.

        Fits into the category of removing civil war statutes, no reminders, makes it easier to repeat. You must know the history of USA or your liable to fall into same hole !

        So, you think school history books will let them know ? I am 73 years old & I have lived thru a lot of happenings, most history is written one sided, & you never hear the other side ! So everyone uses google to check history books ? So who’s gonna’ put down the phone to check ?
